Before You Begin, review the information and safeguards
below about the installation and operation of the Real-
Fyre
®
gas log set.
Check to be sure that the fi replace meets the venting
and construction requirements for the installation of
the Real-Fyre
®
gas log set.
THIS BURNER IS DESIGNED FOR USE WITH PROPANE
OR NATURAL GAS. Never use natural gas in a log set
designed for use with propane gas and never use propane
gas in a burner designed for natural gas.
This product is not recommended for use in
temperatures below 32°F.
Be sure the gas log set is properly sized for the
fi replace. Improper sizing may negatively impact the
proper drafting of the fi replace. Additionally, too large a log
set will adversely affect the burn and hamper the proper
operation of the control system. Too small a log set will
diminish the beauty of the hearth setting. Fig. 4-1 illustrates
the critical dimensions of the fi rebox.
This gas log set must be installed by an NFI Certifi ed
or other qualifi ed professional installer. The Real-
Fyre
®
gas log set is to be installed only in a solid-fuel
burning fi replace with a working fl ue and constructed of
noncombustible material. The fi replace must have an open
damper. The chimney must be free of any obstructions.
The fi replace must have a gas supply line that has been
installed by a qualifi ed technician in accordance with all
local codes. The gas supply line must have a ½" minimum
interior diameter. If the gas line to the fi replace is longer
than 20', a larger diameter line may be necessary.
Be sure to clean the fi replace fl oor of any ashes or other
foreign materials. It is recommended that the fi replace and
chimney be examined and cleaned by a chimney sweep
or other qualifi ed person before you install the Real-Fyre
®
gas log set, and annually thereafter.
Required Gas Pressure: The minimum inlet gas-supply
pressure for the purpose of input adjustment is 5" for
natural gas and 10" for propane gas. The maximum inlet
gas-supply pressure for this burner is 10.5" for natural
gas and 13" for propane gas.
Testing the Gas Supply System: The gas log set and its
individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system while performing any tests of
the piping system at pressures in excess of ½ psig (3.5
kPa). The gas log set must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5
kPa). This is accomplished by closing the gas supply line
valve, which is required by NFPA 54, section 5.54.
