General 

Safety Information and Warnings 

 IMPORTANT NOTE: LOCAL CODE 

Local codes and regulations that are more stringent than the requirements in this manual take precedence over Ortal requirements. 

 WARNING: HANDLING SPACE CREATOR FIREPLACES 

The Space Creator fireplace must be handled with care due to its special and sensitive shape. Do not remove the securing brackets 

before installation. After removing the securing brackets, the appliance must be treated with care to maintain its leveled shape. Do 

not shake, throw, stand, or put weight on it. 

 WARNING: REVIEW ALL WARNINGS 

Be sure to review all safety warnings and installation guidelines contained in this manual. Consider installation location, vent 

configuration, clearances, structural requirements, framing and finish materials, and local codes. ALL warnings and instructions apply 

to all products manufactured and distributed by Ortal. 

 WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE FIREPLACE IF: 

The glass is NOT properly secured in place; Connection points are not sealed (for fireplaces with glass-to-glass connections); 

Glass is cracked; You smell gas; Any part of the fireplace has been under water; You have any doubt about safe operation of the 

fireplace; Or if any part has been under water, do not use the fireplace. Immediately call a qualified, professional service technician 

to inspect the fireplace and to replace any parts of the control system and any gas controls which have been under water. 

 WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING 

All electrical connections must be properly installed, insulated, and secured to avoid potential 

ELECTRICAL SHOCK 

and 

FIRE 

HAZARD

 and malfunction of the system. Consult local building code requirements. In the absence of local codes, refer to the National 

Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C22.1. 

 WARNING: MATERIAL USAGE 

All materials and objects used to carry out the installation must be certified/approved or specified by Ortal and are suitable for use. 

Do NOT install the system with different materials or objects than those approved for installation by Ortal. 

 WARNING: INSTALLATION AND SERVICE 

Installation and repairs on the fireplace and vent system must be done by an authorized Ortal qualified installer service agency or 

gas supplier. If these components are not installed by an authorized Ortal dealer/installer, the warranty of all components will be void 

and Ortal will not be responsible for any damage caused by improper installation. The fireplace should be inspected before use and 

at least annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, 

bedding material, etc. Control compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the fireplace must be kept clean. Any 

alteration to the product can cause soot or carbon to form and may result in damage. This damage and any other damage that results 

from not following the instructions outlined in this manual is not the responsibility of Ortal. 

 WARNING: HEAT BARRIER 

A barrier designed to reduce the risk of burns from hot viewing glass is provided with this fireplace and shall be installed. The fireplace 

MUST not be used without the heat barrier in place. If the barrier becomes damaged, the barrier shall be replaced with the 

manufacturer’s barrier for this fireplace. 

Any safety screen, guard, or barrier removed for servicing the fireplace must be 

replaced before operating. 

 WARNING: FIREPLACE TEMPERATURE 

Due to hot temperatures, the fireplace should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.  

Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing 

ignition. Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on or near the fireplace. 

Young children should be carefully 

supervised when they are in the same room as the fireplace

. Toddlers, young children, and others may be susceptible to 

accidental contact burns. A physical barrier is recommended if there are at-risk individuals in the house. To restrict access to a 

fireplace or stove, install an adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children, and other at-risk individuals out of the room and 

away from hot surfaces. 

 WARNING: GLASS HANDLING 

Only an Ortal certified installer is authorized to remove the glass using a suction cup supplied by Ortal. 

 WARNING: INSTALLATION AND OPERATION 

The fireplace and accompanying components must be installed as an OEM installation in manufactured homes (USA only) or an 

aftermarket permanently located, or a mobile home, where not prohibited by local codes. The fireplace must be installed in 

accordance with the Manufacturer's instructions and the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 

3280, in the United States, or the Standard for Installation in Mobile Homes, CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series, in Canada. 

Exceeding the 

restrictions imposed in these instructions may result in a fire or explosion, causing property damage, personal injury, or 

loss of life. Ortal will not be responsible for any damage caused by improper installation. Do not store or use gasoline or 

other flammable vapors and liquids near this fireplace. 

 WARNING: GAS FIREPLACE 

This fireplace is for use only with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. These fireplaces are not convertible for use with other 

gases unless a certified kit is used, and the conversion is performed by an authorized and qualified technician. Applicable standards 

are Vented Gas Fireplace Heaters ANSI Z21.88 / CSA 2.33a and Gas-fired Fireplaces for Use at High Altitudes CAN/CGA 2.17-M91
