FINAL PREPARATION
1. Replace logs and embers (see Remov-
ing/Replacing Glass Door, page 22).
2. Reinstall glass door and upper louver panel
on fireplace (see Installing Logs, Lava
Rock and Glowing Embers, page 24).
The conversion is now complete.
Refer to the section on Checking Gas Con-
nections (pages 20 and 21) and Operating
Fireplace (pages 26 and 27).
WARNING: Test all gas pip-
ing and connections for leaks
after installing or servicing. Cor-
rect leaks at once.
WARNING: Never use an open
flame to check for a leak. Apply
commercial leak test solution to all
gas joints. Bubbles forming show
a leak. Correct all leaks at once.
7. Remove the burner by loosening the
two 5/16" hex mounting screws (see
Figure 62). Lift burner up and out.
8. Convert the pilot burner by changing out
the pilot orifice. Remove the compres-
sion nut and compression sleeve from
the pilot. Remove the pilot orifice from
inside the pilot barrel (see Figure 63).
Replace with the pilot orifice supplied
with the fireplace.
Note:
The new pilot
orifice has the number 30 stamped on it
for identification purposes.
9. Place open end of pilot orifice on top of
compression sleeve and carefully slide
up inside pilot burner. Tighten compres-
sion nut (see Figure 63).
IMPORTANT:
Be careful not to bend or kink alumi-
num tubing during conversion. Make
sure the compression sleeve and pilot
orifice are properly mated and aligned
before retightening the compression nut.

GAS CONTROL VALVE
CONVERSION
The SIT Nova millivolt valve converts from
natural gas to propane/LP gas with the re-
versal of the conversion screw located on
the stem in the top of the valve (see Figure
64). The valve is located in the bottom of the
fireplace underneath the firebox.
Remove the conversion screw from the valve
and rotate the screw 180 degrees. The screw
is clearly marked as NG or LPG, insure that
the LPG is facing outward. Tighten the
screw fully but do not over tighten.
