operate. The combustion air flue pipe MUST be con-
nected to the termination cap.
NOTE: The minimum vertical rise (exhaust flue) is
10 feet (3M) and the maximum vertical rise is 40 feet
(10M).These dimensions aremeasuredfromthe start-
ing collars of the unit to the end of the last section of
flue pipe (See dimension V in Figure 3).

1.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This model is designed to operate with all combustion
airbeing siphonedfrom theoutside ofthe buildingand
all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of the build-
ing. This model is designed to be installed in a ma-
sonry fireplace or factory built fireplace. These units
CANNOTberecessedinsidecombustibleconstruction.
Minimum dimensions of the masonry or factory-built
fireplaceinto which these models can be installed, are
321/8-inches(816mm) width x131/2-inches (343mm)
depth x 20 1/2 inches (521mm) height.
WARNING: THISUNIT ISNOTFOR USEWITHSOLID
FUEL.
This unit MUST use the flue termination described in
the flueing section of the manual.
The control system for this model is a millivolt type. It
consists of a gas control valve/variable regulator, a
standingpilot/thermopile/thermocouple,apiezo ignitor,
and an ON/OFF switch. The controls are located be-
hind the lower grille. Access to the controls is gained
by rotating the grille up. ON/OFF switch is located on
the front surround. See Figures 1 and 7.

Inplanning the installation for the insertit isnecessary
to determine where the unit is to be installed, and
whetheroptional accessories(wall switch,thermostat,
orremote control)aredesired.Gassupply pipingshould
also be planned. Model ATS-AU-D has a factory in-
stalledfan.
This model is designed to be installed in a masonry or
factory-built fireplace. The separate 3.3 inch (84mm)
combustion air and exhaust pipes must be run up
throughthechimneyand terminated vertically. Horizon-
tal flue terminations MUST NOT be done.
Before starting installation of flue kits, the installer
shouldreadtheGas Fireplace Instructions andtheFlue
Kit Instructions to ensure that a proper flue installation
is completed.
