750 Millivolt System
When you ignite the pilot, the thermocouple produces millivolts
(electrical current) which energizes the magnet in the gas valve.
After 30 seconds to 1 minute time period you can release the gas
control knob and the pilot will stay ON. Allow your pilot ame to
operate an additional one (1) to two (2) minutes before you turn the
gas control knob from the PILOT position to the ON position. This
time period allows the millivolts (electrical energy) to build-up to a
sufcient level allowing the gas control to operate properly.
Important
All correspondence should refer to complete Model Number, Serial
Number and type of gas.
Moisture Resistance
This outdoor replace will shed moderate amounts of water, but is
not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor may enter the
chase under certain conditions.
The replace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture penetration
must be considered for construction that places the replace in
structure walls or on moisture sensitive surfaces.
When installed on exterior walls: Empire Comfort Systems
recommends the replace chase be constructed outside the
structure's weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use
a ashing detail similar to that required for attached decks. Chase
platforms, including hearths should slope away from the structure
at 1/4 in per foot. The replace can be shimmed level.
When installed on surfaces where water may collect or cause
damage: Empire Comfort Systems recommends a slope of 1/8 in
to 1/4 in per foot towards the drain port suggested. The replace
can be shimmed level.
Hearths should slope away from the front of the replace and chase
at 1/8 in to 1/4 in per foot. Metal safety strips must be on top of
any combustible hearth materials used for moisture management.
When purchasing a rebox or replace we recommend you also
buy a weather cover or glass door accessory to protect the unit
from moisture.
Never install a burner where moisture cannot drain off easily. We
recommend a weather barrier - such as a cover or bifold glass
doors - to protect the burner from moisture.
