    PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION FIREPLACE LOCATION Plan for the installation of your appliance. This includes determining where the unit is to be installed, the vent configuration to be used, framing and finishing details, and whether any optional accessories (i.e. blower, wall switch, or remote control) are desired. Consult your local building code agency to ensure compliance with local codes, including permits and inspec- tions. The following factors should be taken into consideration: • Clearance to side-wall, ceiling, woodwork, and windows. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained. • This fireplace may be installed along a wall, across a corner, or use an exterior chase. See Figure 4 for suggested loca- tions. • Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due to heat from appliance. • Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace. • Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored. • Vent pipe routing. See Venting section found in this manual for allowable venting configurations. • These units can be installed in a bedroom. See National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z233.1/NFPA 54 — (current edition), the Uniform Mechanical Code — (current edition), and Local Building Codes for specific installation requirements.

When removing and refitting the plates and adapter be sure the associated gaskets are undamaged and refitted as required. 1. Remove the eight (8) screws securing the flue pipe adapter to the fireplace body. See Figure 8.
  • Page 15: Installation Planning

    VENT INSTALLATION INSTALLATION PLANNING There are two basic types of direct-vent installation: • Horizontal Termination • Vertical Termination It is important to select the proper length of vent pipe for the type of termination you choose. It is also important to note the wall thickness. FOR hORIZONTAL TERMINATION Never run the vent pipe level or Select the amount of vertical rise desired. All horizontal run downward. This may cause excessive of venting must have " rise for every 12" of run towards the temperatures which could cause termination. a fire. You may use up to three 90° elbows in this vent configuration. See Horizontal Termination Configurations on pages 20 and 21.

    VENTING INSTALLATION REAR (THROUGH THE WAll) APPlICATIONS When installed as a rear vent unit this appliance may be vented directly to a termination located on the rear wall behind the appliance • The maximum horizontal distance between the rear of the appliance and the outside of termination is 20" (508 m). See Figure 14. • Only one 45° elbow is allowed in these installations.

  • Page 20: Horizontal Termination Configuration

    VENT INSTALLATION hORIZONTAL TERMINATION CONFIGuRATIONS Since it is very important that the venting system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust, certain limita- tions as to vent configurations apply and must be strictly adhered to. The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to determine the various dimensions allowable.
  • Page 21 VENT INSTALLATION hORIZONTAL TERMINATION CONFIGuRATION 90° (Continued) • If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level height maintained) the horizontal vent length is reduced by 36". See Figures 21 and 22, page 20. This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise. See Figure 24. Example: According to the vent graph (page 20) the maximum horizontal vent length in a system with a 7.5' vertical rise is 20’...
  • Page 22: Below Grade Installation

    VENT INSTALLATION BELOW GRADE INSTALLATIONS When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal clearances of 12" above grade level, a snorkel kit is recommended. It allows installation depth down to 7" (178mm) below grade level. The 7" (178mm) is measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall. Ensure that sidewall venting clearances are observed. If venting system is installed below ground, we recommend a window well with adequate and proper drainage to be installed around the termination area. If installing a snorkel, a minimum 24" vertical rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the 24” vertical pipe is 36". This measurement is taken from the collar of the fireplace (or transition elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. See the Sidewall Venting Graph for extended horizontal run if the vertical exceeds 24".
  • Page 23 VENT INSTALLATION VERTICAl (THROUGH-THE-ROOF) APPlICATIONS This Gas Fireplace has been approved for, • Vertical installations up to 40' (12m) in height. Up to a 10' (3m) horizontal vent run can be installed within the vent system using a maximum of two 90° elbows. See Figure 28. NOTE: Horizontal sections of this vent system require a minimum of 3" clearances to combustibles at the top of the flue and 1" clearance at the sides and bottom until the flue penetrates the outside wall.
  • Page 24: Installation For Vertical Termination

    VENT INSTALLATION INSTALLATION FOR VERTICAL TERMINATION 1. Determine the route your vertical venting will take. If ceiling joist, Roof roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system, Flashing consider an offset. See Figure 30 to avoid cutting load bearing members. For optimal flame appearance, a restrictor disk is necessary on straight Wall vertical runs of 20' of more. Strap • Runs may not incorporate elbows. • The disk is part number 45D0551 and is included in instal- 45° Elbows lation manual packet. • Drop the disk into a 4" inner collar before installing the first section of flue or install at the last section before installing the termination. • An additional disk may be installed on runs of 35' or more. Rotate disks perpendicular to each other. NOTE: Pay special attention to these installation instructions Ceiling Firstop for required clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic...
  • Page 25 VENT INSTALLATION 3. Cut a hole in the roof using the locating hole as a center point. (Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof). The 9 "x9 1/ 2 " (241mm x 241mm) hole must be measured on the horizontal. Actual length may be larger depending on the pitch of the roof. There must be a 1" minimum clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials. (Insulation should be considered a combustible material). 4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through the hole. NOTE: If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must support the vent pipe every three (3) feet. Use wall straps for this purpose. See Figure 28, page 23. Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90°...

Make sure the burner porting, pilot air opening and burner air opening are free of obstructions at all times. PILOT FLAME Thermocouple The flames from the pilot should be visually checked as soon as the heater Thermopile is installed and periodically during normal operation. The pilot flame must always be present when the fireplace is in operation.
  • Page 39: Vent System

    CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE VENT SySTEM The fireplace and venting system should be inspected before initial use and at least annually by a qualified field service person. Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure that no debris is interfering with the airflow. Inspect entire venting system to ensure proper function. GLASS DOOR Thoroughly clean the inside of the glass door after using the fireplace for ten hours. Periodically clean the glass door as necessary. When cleaning the glass, remember: • Do not remove the glass when hot. Allow glass to cool before removal. • NEVER use abrasive materials. • Keep children and pets a safe distance away. • Never operate the fireplace without the glass door properly secured. • Never operate the fireplace if the glass is broken. • Replace any glass that is chipped, cracked, or broken. Replacement glass door assemblies MUST be supplied by the fireplace manufacturer – No substitute materials may be used. • Handle glass door with care to avoid striking or scratching it on hard objects. To clean glass door, follow “Glass Removal” procedure outlined in the Final Installation section. Film deposit on the inside of the glass should be cleaned off using a nontoxic, non-corrosive, non-abrasive, mild-cleaning solution. Simply apply an adequate amount to the glass and wipe off with a damp cloth. After all maintenance has been completed, re-install glass door.
