Required installation components
Provide the correct gas supply, electrical connection, approved direct-vent route and termination, required protective screen, and compliant framing and finishing. Venting is required; a universal assortment of pipe is not a complete installation plan. The installer must select the exact permitted pipe system, elbows, firestops, shields and termination for the planned route.
Media, accessories and configuration
Choose only the approved traditional logs or contemporary media arrangements and model-specific liners described in the manual. For the documented DRSQ38 firestone arrangement, the manual specifies 4.5 pounds and one layer over the burner. Do not operate with no media or an incorrect quantity. Different decorative arrangements follow their own illustrated layouts.
Heat-management and trim accessories are installation-specific options. Their use changes the applicable framing, finishing or fan instructions only where the manual explicitly permits it. A natural-gas appliance does not need a fuel-conversion kit unless it is being converted to propane. For that conversion, use GCA021 for DRSQ38NI-2 and a qualified gas fitter; never substitute another model's kit.
Venting and installation planning
Top- and rear-vent arrangements have different diagrams and clearances. Follow the DRSQ38 diagrams, not the DRSQ34 diagrams. Maintain all clearances to combustibles and service access. Vinyl and other heat-sensitive flooring may require the raised-appliance or noncombustible-hearth arrangements illustrated by the manufacturer. Have the installer confirm the exact appliance and wall finish before building the enclosure.
Care and manufacturer documents
A qualified professional should inspect and service the appliance at least annually. Reinstall the safety screen after service and allow the glass to cool before cleaning. Installation must follow the manufacturer documentation and applicable codes.
