conform with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z22.1,
or the CSA-B149 Installation code (series). This unit
complies with ANSI Z21.60 decorative gas appliance
for installation in solid-fuel burning fireplace.

service person. MHSC Vented Gas Logs must be
installed only in a masonry or a UL 127 solid-fuel
fireplace with minimum venting requirements, see

. To prevent malfunction, gas log set and flue should
be cleaned at least annually by a professional service
person. More frequent cleaning may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, etc. It is imperative
that control compartments, burners and circulating air
passageways be kept clean.

set is installed.

A fireplace screen must be
in place when the log set is burning. Provisions for
adequate combustion air must be provided. Adequate
combustion air usually results in all flames curling into
the fireplace away from the screen and up the flue.

materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.

of high surface temperature and should stay away to
