INSTALLATION

WARNING: Only a qualified
service person must install gas
piping and connect appliance
to gas supply. Follow all local
codes.
NOTICE: Installation, service
and repair of this appliance must
be performed by a qualified in-
staller, service agency, company
or gas supplier experienced with
this type of gas appliance. Only
factory authorized components
listed in these instructions may
be used in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and
all codes and requirements of
the authority having jurisdic-
tion. Any modifications to this
appliance or use of unauthorized
components or accessory items
will void the manufacturer's
warranty and may result in a
hazardous condition.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Check the rating plate to verify the type of gas your
appliance is equipped for use with. The rating plate
can be found on the metal instruction tag attached
to the chimenea burner pan. If your appliance is
not equipped for the supply gas available, call
the dealer where you purchased the chimenea to
obtain a properly equipped model or an approved
conversion kit for your type of gas supply.
Propane/LP gas versions are supplied with a two
stage external regulator with a 10 foot (3 m) hose
assembly for ready connection to a properly sized,
(DOT or CAN/CSA B339) approved propane/LP
supply tank. This tank can be purchased from
your propane/LP or builder supplier. See Sizing
Propane/LP Supply Tank, page 10.

Natural gas versions must be provided with an
equipment shutoff valve installed in the supply
line upstream of the manual control valve provided
with the chimenea. A model GA5010 gas equip-
ment shutoff valve with a 1/8" NPT pressure tap
may be purchased through your dealer. See Con-
necting to Natural Gas Supply, page 9.
LOCATING APPLIANCE
When locating this appliance, follow all safety
information on pages 2 through 4.
Do not use this appliance indoors. It is for outdoor
use only. When locating this appliance under wood
or noncombustible overhangs, the chimenea cap
must be in place and the specified clearances must
be maintained (see Figure 2, page 7).
Any types of materials other than wood or non-
combustible masonry surfaces could be damaged
or set on fire.
Maintain proper clearances from combustible
materials.
• Make sure combustible materials such as trees
and fabrics are at least 10 feet (3 m) above the
chimenea cap.
• Maintain a minimum of 4 feet (1.3 m) of
clearance between the top of the vent cap and
any overhead combustible material (second
story balcony or deck, patio overhang such as
uncovered lattice or lanai).
Note: The chimenea will produce some sooting.
It is advisable to locate the chimenea away from
any overhanging.
• Make sure all combustible materials such as
shrubs, furnishings, and fabrics are at least
36" (1 m) from the sides and in front of the
chimenea opening.
• Maintain a minimum 12" (30 cm) clearance
from the widest point on the sides and back of
chimenea base to any combustible materials
such as wood, vinyl siding, or masonry con-
struction, and 36" (1 m) in front of the chimenea
opening.
Make sure to locate appliance, gas hose, and rigid
supply lines out of traffic areas to prevent tripping
and accidental damage to the chimenea and supply
connections.
