RADCO BURNERS


AIR FOR

COMBUSTION AND

VENTILATION

WARNING: This appliance shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as possible.

While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel burning appliances draw air from the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuelburning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUATE

VENTILATION

The following are excerpts from National

Fuel Gas Code. NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventila-

tion.

All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:

1.

Unusually Tight Construction

2.

Unconfined Space

3.

Confined Space

The information on pages 4 through 6 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional fresh air.

Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where: a.

walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6x10 -11 kg per pa-sec-m 2 ) or less with openings gasketed or sealed and b. weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors and c.

caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at other openings.

If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air

From Outdoors, page 6.

If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Log Set

Location, page 5.

Confined and Unconfined Space

The National Fuel Gas Code (ANS Z223.1,

1992 Section 5.3) defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m 3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m 3 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 unconfined space.

This log set shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.

* Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR APPLIANCE LOCATION

Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space

Use this work sheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.

Space: Includes the room in which you will install appliance plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.

1.

Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).

Length x Width x Height = _________________ cu. ft. (volume of space)

Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)

If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.

2.

Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

_____________ (volume of space)

÷

50 cu. ft. = (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)

÷

50 cu. ft. = 51.2 or 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

3.

Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.

Gas fireplace logs

Gas water heater*

Gas furnace

Vented gas heater

_____________ Btu/Hr

_____________ Btu/Hr

_____________ Btu/Hr

_____________ Btu/Hr

Vent-free heater _____________ Btu/Hr

Other gas appliances* + _____________ Btu/Hr

Total = _____________ Btu/Hr

Example:

Gas water heater 40,000 Btu/Hr

Gas fireplace logs + 55,000 Btu/Hr

Total = 95,000 Btu/Hr

* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the outdoors.

4.

Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.

_____________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)

_____________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)

Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support)

95,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)

The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are as follows:

A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building, page 6.

B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 6.

C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr size makes room unconfined.

If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is an unconfined space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.

WARNING: If the area in which the appliance may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined 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, ANS Z223.1, 1992, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas volume to log set. If pipe is too small, undue loss of pressure will occur.

Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap.

Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from log set (see Figure 6).

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in a clogged burner injector.

CAUTION: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 6. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into log set controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, log set may not run properly.

INSTALLATION

Continued

Changing Pilot Orifice

The pilot is provided with a natural gas orifice installed. For propane/LP gas you must remove it and replace it with an propane/LP orifice. The hardware kit contains an propane/LP orifice with a red stripe for converting the pilot.

1.

Gently loosen and remove the pilot line connection from the bracket (see

Figure 17).

2.

Replace the injector (see Figure 17) with the propane/LP pilot injector with the red stripe.

3.

Replace and tighten the pilot line to the bracket.

4.

Continue with step 3 under Natural

Gas Installation, page 10.

TESTING BURNER FOR

LEAKS

1.

Generously apply soapy solution to all connections.

WARNING: Never check for gas leaks with open flame.

4.

When the burner is tested and leak free, observe the individual tongues of flame on the burner. Note: The burner design includes more ports on the outside of the bar. Make sure that all ports are clear and producing flame evenly across the burner. If any ports appear blocked, clear them by removing the burner manifold and reaming the ports with a modified paper clip or other suitable tool.

5.

When finished testing, turn the gas shutoff valve OFF to extinguish all flames.

ADDING PAN MATERIAL

1.

Open the bag of Ash Bed Material (vermiculite) and spread it evenly across the burner pan to the top. You may overflow the front and sides of the pan to cover the entire pan and connecting hardware. Do not cover GA9000 or

GA9100 valve.

2.

Open the glowing embers and evenly cover the Ash Bed Material (vermiculite) in the burner pan.

INSTALLING THE GRATE

AND LOGS

1.

Place the grate over the burner pan where the two outer horizontal supports on the grate fit into the two pan positioning notches in the rear vertical edge of the pan.

2.

Slide the two rear log grate steps over the two outer horizontal supports on the grate as shown in Figure 18.

3.

Place the back log on the grate onto the grate steps (see Figure 19).

4.

Place the front log(s) on the grate and slide forward against the front bars on the grate (see Figure 19).

Grate

Grate Steps

5.

Place the smaller top logs onto the bottom logs (see Figure 20). Leave as much open space between logs as possible to minimize flame impingement and sooting. Note: Logs may chip if they are handled roughly or if hit together while being placed.

Figure 19 - Installing Front and Back Logs

(Number and style of your logs may vary)

2.

Light the burner with the shut-off valve no more than half open and holding a match slightly in front of the pan (see

Lighting Instructions, page 12).

3.

Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas odor, or flame from any area other than the burner (leaks). If leaks are detected, shut off the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reassemble the loose connection(s) using pipe joint compound until burner system is leak free.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE

LIGHTING

WARNING: Keep flue open when operating unit.

WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS


• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.


LIGHTING

INSTRUCTIONS

1.

STOP! Read the safety information, above.

2.

Turn the gas shut-off valve to OFF.

3.

Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you then smell gas STOP! Follow the safety information above. If you don't smell gas, go on to the next step.

4.

Light a match and lay it on top of the pan material about 2" from the end of the supply side of the pan

5.

Slowly turn the gas shut-off valve ON until the burner ignites. If the burner doesn’t ignite within 10 seconds with the match burning, turn the shut-off valve OFF and repeat steps 1 through

4 again.

GAS SHUT-OFF

VALVE OPERATION

Flame Adjustment

1.

Adjust the flame ON/OFF by turning the gas shut-off valve counterclockwise wise

to open or clock-

to close, as necessary.

Shutting Off Appliance

1.

Turn gas shut-off valve clockwise

to the OFF position.

CURING LOGS

During the 2-3 hour appliance break-in period, you may detect an odor from the appliance as the various paints and compounds used in the manufacturing of this log set cure. This is a normal and temporary situation that is not cause for alarm.

However, you may want to provide extra ventilation to the room during this time.

To ensure proper curing of the logs:

• Ignite a 2" flame and maintain it for 1 hour.

• Burn the logs in consecutive 1 hour periods raising the flame an additional

2" to full flame height for a total of three hours.

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS FOR

GA9000

Note: Operation instructions for GA9100

2.

Make sure manual shutoff valve is fully open.

3.

Press in and turn control knob clockwise to the OFF position.

4.

Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas around log set and near floor. If you smell gas,

STOP! See Safety information, page 2 and Air For Combustion And Ventila-

tion, pages 4 through 6. If you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.

5.

Turn control knob counterclockwise

to the PILOT position and press in. Keep control knob pressed in for five (5) seconds.

Note: You may be running this log set for the first time after hooking up to gas supply. If so, the control knob may need to be pressed in for 30 seconds. This will allow air to bleed from the gas system.

• If control knob does not pop up when released, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs.

6.

With control knob pressed in, push down and release ignitor button. This will light pilot. The pilot is attached to the rear of the front burner. If needed, keep pressing ignitor button until pilot lights.

Note: If pilot does not stay lit, contact a qualified service person or gas supplier for repairs. Until repairs are made, light pilot with match.

7.

Keep control knob pressed in for 30 seconds after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds, release control knob.

Note: If pilot goes out, repeat steps

3 through 7.

International’s technical service web site at www.desatech.com

.

Note: All troubleshooting items are listed in order of operation.

WARNING: Turn off log set and let cool before servicing. Only a qualified service person should service and repair log set.

OBSERVED PROBLEM

Log set is smoking/sooting excessively

( Note: It is natural and unavoidable for vented gas log sets to produce moderate levels of carbon (soot) where flames contact the logs. This is especially true with propane/LP gas.)

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. Poor fuel quality

2. Fireplace venting system not drafting properly

3. Excessive flame impingement or blockage

4. Improper fuel/air mixture

Burner is excessively noisy

( Note: The movement and combustion of gas will create low, unavoidable levels of noise.)

Burner flame is too low or too high

5. Excessive gas supply/pressure

1. Passage of air/gas across irregular surfaces

CAUTION: Never use a wire, needle, or similar object to clean

ODS/pilot. This can damage ODS/ pilot unit.

REMEDY

1. Contact local natural or propane/LP gas company

2. Adjust damper wide open and/or have fireplace and venting professionally cleaned and checked

3. Separate the logs to allow more flame passage

4. Remove any foreign items from the flame pattern and/or check for proper orifice sizing

5. Preheat flue in very cold weather

1. Relieve any tight bends or kinks in gas supply line

1. Incorrect gas supply or pressure

2. Blocked burner orifice or burner manifold ports

3. Improper burner orifice size

1. Check for proper gas supply pressure

2. Free burner orifice and manifold ports of any burrs, paint, or other blockage

3. Verify proper burner orifice sizing (see

Figure 4, page 7) www.desatech.com

Failure to use original factory replacement parts voids this warranty. The log set MUST be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all local codes and instructions furnished with the unit.

This warranty does not apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal wear and tear, or parts that fail or become damaged as a result of misuse, accidents, lack of proper maintenance or defects caused by improper installation. Travel, diagnostic cost, labor, transportation and any and all such other costs related to repairing a defective log set will be the responsibility of the owner.

TION OF ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS

FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE TO FOUR (4) YEARS ON BURNER SYSTEM AND A LIFETIME ON LOGS FROM THE DATE

OF FIRST PURCHASE; AND DESA INTERNATIONAL’S LIABILITY IS HEREBY LIMITED TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF

THE PRODUCT AND DESA INTERNATIONAL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY OTHER DAMAGES WHATSOEVER

INCLUDING INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation on implied warranties, or exclusion or limitation on damages may not apply to you.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
