If your plans do not allow for the venting system as outlined
previously in the "installing chimney/vent system" section, you may
contact ENERVEX, Inc. (formerly EXHAUSTO) at 800-255-2923.
They will design an approved venting system to suit your venting
needs. These power vented systems follow the standards and codes
as outlined under the NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 Nation Fuel Gas Code.
Please check with the local authority having jurisdiction in your area.
The engineers at ENERVEX are familiar with Golden Blount
fireplaces and their systems will allow you to minimize the amount of
vent pipe exposed outside of your home. Fireplaces may also be
horizontally vented with these systems.

    BUILDING CODES AND SAFETY STANDARDS The design of this FIREPLACE has been tested and is listed with PFS CORPORATION in accordance with THE AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS INSTITUTE — ANSI Z21.50-2014. This manual serves only as a basic guideline for installation and use of this and gas piping.
  • Page 6: Piping And Gas Pressure Requirements

    GAS PIPING AND GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS All gas piping must be installed to comply with local codes, or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. Unions in gas lines shall be of ground joint type. Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping must be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gas. Gas piping must be of sufficient size to provide a minimum natural gas pressure at the appliance of 7" water column or 11" for L.P. gases for the purpose of input adjustment. The maximum inlet gas pressure to the unit must not exceed 10" for natural gas, and 13" for L.P. gases. If this unit is to be supplied with L.P. gas (bottled propane) the tank or bottle supplying the gas must have a regulator that reduces the gas pressure to between 11 and 13 inches water column. The control will not operate with gas line pressure directly from the tank and may leak gas due to this excessive pressure. DANGER: OPERATION OF THIS UNIT ON L.P. GAS WITHOUT AN APPROVED REGULATOR AT THE SUPPLY CONTAINER WILL LEAD TO GAS LEAKS AT THE CONTROL WITH POSSIBLE FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Include a manual shut-off valve and union in the line so the control or heater may be f i r e - p a r t s . c o m disconnected for servicing. Include a drip leg and a plugged 1/8" N.P.T. tapping into the line also. The tapping must be accessible for the test gauge connection immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the unit. Use a soap and water solution or liquid gas leak detector to coat each joint in the piping system and look for bubbles which indicate gas leaks. Repair all gas leaks. CAUTION: THE APPLIANCE AND ITS APPLIANCE MAIN GAS VALVE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING OF THAT SYSTEM AT TEST PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF...
