PLACEMENT IN A FIREPLACE WITH A RESTRICTIVE BARRIER IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET The following are guidelines for placing a gas log set in a fireplace that has a restrictive barrier along the bottom front opening of the fireplace. Some examples of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/recessed fireplaces.
INSTALLATION WARNING PLACING AND SECURING APPLIANCE You must secure the gas log heater to the fireplace floor. Properly securing the grate prevents movement of the entire unit when you adjust the controls. Grate movement could cause a gas leak. ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE 1. Center the gas log unit in the fireplace or firebox. Make certain the front feet of the grate sit inside the front edge of the fireplace or firebox. 2. Refer to Figure 4 for hole locations.
NOTICE: A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the appliance to the gas supply. Consult all local codes before installation. Use new black iron pipe, steel pipe, copper tubing, or internally tinned copper tubing. Copper or internally tinned copper tubing can only be used according to the National Fuel Gas Code, section 2.6.3, providing gas meets sulfide limits, and where permitted by local codes.
CONNECTING THE GAS The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8" NPT at the regulator, inlet on the right side facing the gas log. If a left side connection is required, the connecting pipe may be led under the rear of the gas logs or behind the grate for connection to the inlet. NOTE: The milli-volt valve has an internal regulator, thus the incoming gas line connects directly to the valve.
WARNING ELECTRICAL WIRING (MILLIVOLT) Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. THTP Milli-volt Valve Pilot TH Switch Optional Wall Switch or Remote Reciever Figure 8 - Wiring Diagram The Milli-Volt (thermopile) is a self powered combination gas control that does not require 110VAC to operate.
LOG PLACEMENT LOG PLACEMENT IMPORTANT: Remove logs, handling carefully by holding gently at each end. Gloves are recommended to prevent skin irritation from ceramic fibers. If skin becomes irritated, wash gently with soap and water. DUZY 24 (VDY24/18D) LOG INSTALLATION SEQUENCE: 1. Install the rear log (#1) on the two locating pins. Visually check to verify the log is securely placed on the pins and in contact with the grate. See Figure 9. 4 2. Install the right log (#2) on top of the control cover.
LOG PLACEMENT DUZY II (VDY24/18, 30)D2 LOG INSTALLATION SEQUENCE: 4 1. Install the rear log (#1) on the two locating pins. Visually check to verify the log is securely placed on the pins and in contact with the grate. See Figure 11. 2. Install the right log (#2) on top of the control cover. Slide the log back until touching the rear log (#1). Visually check to verify the log is resting on the grate and control cover. See Figure 11. 3.
LOG PLACEMENT DUZY4R LOG INSTALLATION SEQUENCE: Note: Models VDY24/18D4 has six (6) logs and Model VDY30D4R has seven (7) logs Bottom Front Log (#2) 1. Place Bottom Front Log (#2) on front of grate. See Figure 13. 2. Place Back Log (#1) on back of grate lining up two (2) pins on grate with holes in bottom of log. See Figure 14. 3. Place Left Top Log (#3) on left end of Bottom Front and Back Logs. See Figure 15. 4. Place Center Crossover Log (#4) across middle of Bottom Front and Back Logs. See Figure 16.
LOG PLACEMENT DUZY4R LOG INSTALLATION SEQUENCE (continued): 5. Place Left Top Crossover Log (#5) up against Left Top Log. See Figure 17. 6. Rest Right Top Log (#6) on Center Crossover Log and front of grate. See Figure 18. Left Crossover Top Log (#5) FOR VDY30D4R INSTALL ONLY: 7. Place Small Front Log (#7) between Center Crossover Log and Top Left Log. See Figure 19.
FIREPLACE DRAFT TEST PLACEMENT OF THE GLOWING EMBERS Cover the burner pan with glowing embers (rock wool) provided. Tear pieces approximately 1/2" in size (roughly the size of a nickel) and cover the burner evenly. DO NOT… 1. Pile the rock wool too thickly on pan. 2. Place rock wool higher than the top of the front grate bar. 3. Cover the pilot with rockwool. PLACEMENT OF DECORATIVE VOLCANIC ROCK Sprinkle volcanic rock in front of front glowing embers and to both sides.
FLAME APPEARANCE CHECKING BURNER FLAMES In normal operation at full rate after appoximately 15 minutes, the following flame appearance should be observed. Rear flame should be yellow and extend vertically. Maximize spacing on top logs. Burner flame should become yellow as they contact embers on the face of the log. The log face will glow a bright reddish orange. Ember bed should be yellow/orange glow.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SAFTEY INSTRUCTION FOR MANUAL AND MILLI-VOLT CONTROL WITH PILOT FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING WARNING A.

WARNING TROUBLESHOOTING Turn appliance OFF and allow to cool before servicing. Only a qualified service person should service and repair the heater. Note: All troubleshooting items are listed in order of operation. OBSERVED PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY When ignitor button is pressed, there is no spark at pilot. 1. Ignitor electrode positioned wrong. 2. Ignitor electrode is broken. 3. Ignitor electrode not connected to ignitor cable. 4. Ignitor cable pinched or wet. Keep ignitor cable dry. 5.
TROUBLESHOOTING OBSERVED PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY 4. Thermocouple connection loose at control valve. 5. Pilot flame not touching thermocouple, which allows thermocouple to cool, causing pilot flame to go out. This problem could be caused by either low gas pressure, or a dirty or partially clogged pilot. 6. Thermocouple damaged. 7. Control valve damaged. 4. Hand tighten until snug, then tighten 1/4 turn more. 5. Contact local gas company. One or both burners do not light after pilot is lit. 1.
