Gas Fireplace Types
Locating Your Gas Fireplace Data Tag
Gas Fireplaces will have a data tag that contains the fireplace information such as manufacturer (make), model, serial number, and various gas fuel information. This tag may be a metal card, metal plate, sticker that is affixed to your gas fireplace. This data tag should not be confused with a data tag for a factory firebox. To distinquish between the 2 data plates, a factory firebox tag will not include gas fuel details
Direct Vent Gas Fireplace: The data tag is normally found on the floor of the lower control compartment, behind the bottom louvre panel. Sometimes, it may be located on the frame or even on a side panel. The manufacturer will have information on where the data tag is located.
Gas Log Sets (Vented or Ventless) may include a metal card with lighting instructions. This metal card most likely contains the data tag information (on the reverse side of the instructions). This card may be affixed to the grate with a metal chain or it could have a designated place in the rear of the grate - a slotted space where it easily is stored.
Do not attempt to locate fireplace data while unit is operating! Allow unit to cool completely!
