These fireplace models are vented gas fireplaces that use a millivolt
gas control valve with a millivolt ignition system. P325/VP325
models have a 5" B-vent and P324/VP324 models have a 4" B-vent.
A properly sized B-Type venting system and listed type vent cap are
not supplied but are required for proper operation. See venting
instructions on pages 8 and 9.
INTRODUCTION
These models are factory equipped for use with natural gas and must
be converted when intended for use with propane/LP gas. Conversion
kits PCBM-324 and PCBM-325 may be purchased for simple
conversion to propane/LP gas. See Accessories, page 29.
