3.0 installation
The GVFL 18/24/30 are all rated at 40,000 BTUs per hour and therefore requires a minimum unconfined space of
2,000 cubic feet.
During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping various components of this appliance are treated with certain oils,
films or bonding agents.
These materials may produce smoke and smells as they are burned off during the initial operation of the
appliance; possibly causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence. Simply
open a window to ventilate the room during the burn off period.
3.1 installation in an unvented application
3.1.1 combustion and ventilation air provisions
3.1.2 determining confined or unconfined space
!
WARNING
Barriers such as the bottom of a glass door frame placed in front of a gas log set can change the air flow
characteristics of the appliance which in turn can cause the appliance to carbon or overheat and malfunction.
15.1
This appliance shall not be installed in a confi ned space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for
adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 defi nes a confi ned space as a space whose volume is less than 50
cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space
and an unconfi ned space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per
kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the space
in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished with doors are considered a part of the unconfi ned
space.
To determine the volume of the room where the appliance is to be installed, multiply the width x the length x the ceiling
height of that room measured in feet. If any adjoining rooms are connected by grilles or openings such as kitchen pass-
throughs, etc., the volume of those rooms may be added to the total.
Multiply the room volume by 1000 and divide this amount by 50 to determine the maximum BTU/hr that the space can
support with adequate combustion and ventilation air.
Add the Btu/hr of all fuel burning appliances located within the space such as gas furnace, gas water appliance, etc.
Do not include direct vent gas appliances which draw their input air from the outdoors and expel their exhaust to the
outdoors.
Unusually tight construction is defi ned as construction where:
A) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapour retarder with a rating of 1
perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed
B) Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors
C) Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and
oors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at
other openings.
An unvented room appliance is recommended for use as a secondary heat source rather than as a primary source. Gas
combustion produces water vapour which could occur at the rate of approximately one ounce of water for every 1,000
BTU/hr of gas input. During the cold weather season, indoor humidity levels tend to be low. Consequently, this water
vapour can enhance the living space. However if a problem should occur:
A) Ensure suffi cient combustion and circulation air
B) Use a dehumidifi er
C) Do not use the unvented room appliance as a primary heat
source. Without suffi cient fresh air for proper operation, poor fuel
combustion can result. Carbon Monoxide is a result of poor fuel
combustion.
If additional fresh air is required, use one of the methods
described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA54
or the applicable local code.
Room Volume = Length x Width x Height
Max BTU/hr = Room Volume x 1000 / 50
If for example:
The length of the rooms is 5 feet (1.5m),
The width of Room 1 is 10 feet (3.1m),
The width of Room 2 is 15 feet (4.6m),
The height of the rooms is 8 feet (2.4m).
Volume of Room 1: 5x10x8 = 400 cubic feet (11.16 cubic meters)
Volume of Room 2: 5x15x8 = 600 cubic feet (16.56 cubic meters)
EXAMPLE 1:
In this example, because there is no door to the adjoining room, the volume of the adjoining room may be added to the
volume of the room with the heater to get a total unconfi ned space.
The total unconfi ned space: 400 ft
3
(11.3m

)+ 600 ft

(17m

Maximum BTU/h: [(1000x1000) ÷ 50] = 20,000 BTU/h
EXAMPLE 2:
If in this example a solid door separates Room 1 from Room 2, the volume of Room 2 could not be used. In this case the
maximum BTU/h would be:

If the area in which the appliance may be operated is smaller than that defi ned as an unconfi ned space or if
the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the
methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54, air for combustion and ventilation,
or the applicable local code.
If the area in which the appliance may be operated does not meet the required volume for indoor combustion
air, combustion and ventilation air shall be provided by one of the methods described in the ANSI Z223.1 /
NFPA 54, the International Fuel Gas Code, or applicable local codes.

If there are no more fuel burning appliances within this space then the 40,000 BTU/h input of the appliance is suit-
able to be installed. This also assumes that the construction of this space is not unusually tight.
This would be considered a confined space since it can not support the 40,000 BTU/h input of the appliance and
it would be necessary to provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to Room 1.

3.2 installing in a vented application
The appliance and gas logs function as a system. If the appliance is not drafting properly and spilling into the
room (check with a match or a smoke stick), reposition the damper clamp until a positive draft is obtained
by opening the damper. If negative pressure in home prevents having a positive draft, consult an air quality
specialist.
3.2.1 damper stop installation
The damper must be permanently locked in
position to prevent full closure and to provide
a minimum flue opening. Various methods for
locking the damper may be used but may be
restricted from region to region and it is important
to know the specifics that apply to your area.
For your convenience a damper stop is provided
with the appliance and may be used where not
prohibited by state or local codes.

Positioning the logs improperly will cause flame impingement and car-
boning.
Blocked burner ports can cause an incorrect flame pattern, carbon de-
posits and delayed ignition. Phazer
TM
logs glow when exposed to direct
flame. Use only certified Phazer
TM
logs available from your authorized
dealer/distributor.
A. Place the fibre burner
cover onto the two locat-
ing studs screwed into the

operating instructions
5.0 operating instructions
If the appliance is equipped with decorative glass doors, they must be fully opened when operating this gas log
set.
5.1 lighting instructions
A
C
D
E
B
A. Locate the pilot burner at the rear of the log set on the right
side.
B. Turn the gas control knob to the pilot setting
(on the left side of the appliance closest to the
back).
C. With the control knob depressed, push the
piezo igniter continuously until the pilot lights.
Hold the control knob in for 1 minute and
release. If the pilot goes out, repeat steps B and
C.
D. Once the pilot stays burning, make certain
that the on / off switch is in the off position.
Turn the control knob counter-clockwise to the on
position.
E. Turn the on / off switch to the on position to ignite the burner. This
appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shut off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than ½
psi (3.5 kPa).
If appliance shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air. If appliance keeps shutting off, have it serviced.
Keep burner and control compartment clean.
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-
tion caused by the curing of the logs and the “burn-off” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing
process and will not occur again. Open a window to ventilate the room during this burn off period.
5.2 match lighting instructions
A. Remove any items necessary for easy access to the ODS (for example: logs, screens, etc.).
B. Follow appropriate lighting instructions found previously. Instead of pushing and releasing the piezo but-
ton, light a match and hold the flame to the end of the pilot and ignite the pilot.
C. After control knob has been released and pilot stays lit, reinstall any items that were removed for pilot
access.
D. Call a qualified service technician for repair or replacement of the piezo ignitor.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the appliance
may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles burning off. In both cases, open a win-
dow to sufficiently ventilate the room.
Purge the gas line with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the
door.

maintenance
This procedure must be performed by a qualified
service person!
Inspect the pilot for any visible contamination or
debris (usually lint, pet hair, spider webs, carpet
fibre, etc.) and remove.
Disconnect the pilot from the pilot tubing line,
using the appropriate wrench. Blow out the
housing in the same direction as the gas flow.
Re-install the pilot tube, turn on the gas and
check for leaks.
If this does not improve the performance, replace
the ODS with an exact replacement. The device is
tamper resistant with no field serviceable parts.
CORRECT PILOT FLAME
Flame contacts thermocouple
correctly (clean, stable and
pronounced blue flame).
INCORRECT PILOT FLAME
Flame lifts off thermocouple
(flame becomes unstable with
more of an orange tip).
