Page 6: Installation Requirements
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS Several issues must be addressed when selecting a suitable location for your Solas Linear fireplace. The minimum clearances to combustible construction are listed below. In addition, access to the gas supply must be considered. The location of the fireplace will also affect the venting requirements and you must be certain the location will allow compliance with the venting requirements shown on page You must also insure that your installation provides adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and proper operation.
Page 7: Massachusetts Requirements
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS The gas fireplace is shipped with a plugged 3/8” NPT connection. The gas supply piping should have a separate gas shutoff valve and a 1/8” NPT plugged tapping upstream of the valve. The stove and its main control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION UNPACKING AND INSTALLING THE SOLAS LINEAR WALL MOUNT FIREPLACE The fireplace components are shipped in three cartons. By TUBE 1 TUBE 2 now, you will have opened the top of the first carton, removed the glass protector and this manual. You will also have found the Left and Right decorative panels.
Page 17 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Before you begin the fireplace mounting process there are several important installation requirements that must be met. Careful planning will make the installation easier to accomplish and will reduce the chances of encountering problems after you start. 1.
Page 18 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Once you are certain that the location you have chosen meets all the necessary mounting and safety require- ments, you can begin the installation. 1. Tape or pin the installation template to the wall in the position where the fireplace is to be mounted. Note: It is important that the fireplace is mounted in a level position.
Page 19 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Vent Pass-Through (Parallel Wall Installation on an Interior Partition Wall) 1. An unobstructed wall pass-through is required to allow for a safe installation of the fireplace vent com- ponents. This will necessitate removal of a portion of the interior wall covering (e.g., sheetrock or plaster and lath), on both sides of the partition wall and any adjacent internal wall materials (like insu- lation).
Page 20 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Gas Supply Line 1. Once the vent pass-through (or pass-through’s) are finished, the gas supply line should be installed. The supply line should exit the wall that the fireplace will be installed on at the location specified on the in- stallation template We suggest the installation of a shut-off valve in the supply line between the wall and the connection to the fireplace.
Page 21 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION 8. At this point, check to be sure that there is a 3/8” air gap be- tween the entire flat back surface of the mounting plate and the wall surface. The gap is critical to a safe installation and if the gap is obstructed in any way, remove the obstruction be- fore proceeding.
Page 22 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION 18. If your installation does require an air restrictor or exhaust restrictor or both, these must be installed before you install the vent starter pipe. Again, refer to the venting information starting on page 8 to determine the specific restrictor requirements for your specific installation. 19.
Page 23 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION 12. You are now ready to install the fireplace on the mounting plate. This will require a helper as the fireplace is quite heavy. Lift the fireplace up and guide the vent pipe into the vent pipe opening in the mounting plate.
Page 24 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Installing the Outer Vent Heat Shields and Vent Termination (Parallel Installation on Outside Wall) 1. Before you install the horizontal vent termination, you must first install the second halves of the two telescoping vent pipe heat shields.

Page 27 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Installing or Replacing the Batteries 1. The valve control module is powered by three “C” batteries. The battery pack is located on the right BATTERY side of the fireplace and is held to a mounting PACK bracket with a hook and eye strap. Refer to the adjacent illustration.
Page 28 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION 3. Starting at one end, pour the glass media onto the burner tray, keeping the pouring spout on the poly- bag toward the center of the burner to avoid spillage of glass pieces over the sides of the burner. See the adjacent illustrations.

Page 30 ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Installing the Outer Panels 1. The four outer decorative panels are secured to the fireplace with philips head screws. The top and bottom panels are secured to the fireplace mounting plate with sheet metal screws. All other screws are philips head machine screws.
Page 31 ASSEMBLY Installing the Fireplace Surround The decorative surround for the fireplace is held in place by four brack- ets. Two are located on the top of the fireplace and two on the bottom. There are mating brackets and catch plates on the surround itself. Refer to the adjacent illustrations when installing the surround.

MAINTENANCE A qualified service agency should conduct an annual inspection and maintenance of your Solas Linear in- cluding the overall installation and venting to keep it running safely. The following procedures should be performed only by a qualified service person. The gas supply should be turned off and the stove should be completely cool whenever a maintenance procedure is performed.
Page 44 MAINTENANCE Inspecting the Venting An inspection of both the inner and outer vent pipes and the vent terminal should be made as part of the an- nual service appointment. The venting must have no blockage and be in good repair. The vent manufac- turer’s instructions may provide specific details on vent inspection.
