IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Check to be sure the fi replace meets venting and construction requirements for the installation of the
Real-Fyre
®
gas burner system (see FIREPLACE REQUIREMENTS section, below).
Be sure your gas burner system is properly sized for your fi replace. Improper sizing may negatively
impact the proper drafting of the fi replace. Additionally, too large a burner system will adversely affect the burn
and hamper the proper operation of the control system. Too small a burner system will diminish the beauty of
your hearth setting.
This Real-Fyre
®
gas burner system is to be installed only
in a fully vented, noncombustible fi replace with an open
damper. The chimney must be free of any obstructions.
The fi replace must be designed and approved to burn
wood. Your Real-Fyre
®
burner system is designed to
burn with yellow, smoky fl ames. For this reason, it must
be adequately vented.
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 be ½" minimum
interior diameter. If the gas line to the fi replace is longer
than 20', a larger-diameter line may be necessary.
A fi replace screen must be in place when the system
is burning. Provisions for adequate combustion
air must be maintained. Unless other provisions for
combustion air are provided, the screen shall have
an opening(s) for introduction of combustion air.
Combustion air is adequate when all fl ames curl into
the fi replace and away from the screen. When a glass
fi replace enclosure (door) is used, leave the doors
fully open when the system is in operation.
Required Gas Pressure: The minimum inlet gas-
supply pressure for the purpose of input adjustment is
7" of water column (w.c.) for natural gas and 11" w.c.
for propane. The maximum inlet gas-supply pressure
is 10.5" w.c. for natural gas and 13" for propane.
FIREPLACE REQUIREMENTS
