Getting Started

A. Design and Installation Considerations
Hearth & Home Technologies direct vent gas appliances
are designed to operate with all combustion air siphoned
from outside of the building and all exhaust gases ex-
pelled to the outside. No additional outside air source is
required.
Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier,
local building inspector, fi re offi cials or authorities having
jurisdiction over restrictions, installation inspection and
permits.
Before installing, determine the following:
• Where the appliance is to be installed.
• The vent system confi guration to be used.
• Gas supply piping requirements.
• Electrical wiring requirements.
• Framing and fi nishing details.
• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,
wall switch, or remote control—are desired.
Installation and service of this
appliance should be performed by
qualifi ed personnel. Hearth & Home
Technologies recommends HHT
Factory Trained or NFI certified
professionals.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For
assistance or additional information, consult a qualifi ed
service technician, service agency or your dealer.
