    Your Halcyon Gas Fireplace will arrive in two packages; the cabinet - including the burner and glass panel assembly - on a pallet, and a carton with everything else. Please inspect your shipment for completeness and any damage. Contact your retailer if any damage is found.
  • Page 10 Figure 6 shows some example installations. Since the Halcyon Gas Fireplace weighs several hundred pounds, it must be placed on a sturdy and level surface. It can be placed on the floor or a raised platform made of wood or non-combustible materials - do not place the Fireplace on carpet or vinyl tile.
  • Page 11 Figure 7 - Rough Opening Table 3, below, lists the minimum dimensions of the rough opening (shown in Figure 7) into which the Halcyon Gas Fireplace is set. It also lists the minimum height of an enclosure (W) and the minimum distance between a room ceiling and the bottom of the Halcyon (V).
  • Page 12 P2. ABOVE THE FIREPLACE Almost all of the heat produced by the Halcyon Gas Fireplace rises directly up the wall into which it is set. This subjects the wall above the Fireplace (and anything attached to the wall) to elevated temperatures. The European Home Remote Heat Kit (included) is designed to keep the wall cooler by moving heat away from the Fireplace.
  • Page 13 Your proposed vent configuration should offer as little resistance as possible to the rising of hot air. Any venting configuration used by the Halcyon must fall within the limits of Chart 1. All measurements are taken from the center of the vent connector on the top of the Halcyon cabinet.

  • Page 26 INSTALLATION In order to ease the latching/unlatching of the glass panel assembly, the Halcyon Gas Fireplace comes equipped with a standard 5/8” combination wrench. The wrench is used to make it easier to move the latches – your fingers can do the job just as well.

  • Page 27: Installation - Venting

    This section provides venting information which is specific to the Halcyon Gas Fireplace. The Halcyon Gas Fireplace is a direct vent fireplace that uses a co-axial or “pipe within a pipe” venting system. The outer “pipe” or vent (8” diameter) conducts outside air into the Fireplace and the inner vent (5” diameter) carries the exhaust outside. This technology, which can run either horizontally through a side wall or vertically through the roof, produces an efficient system because conditioned building air is not used for combustion.
  • Page 28 • When installed with one foot of rise, the Halcyon can be installed with no more than two 90° elbows OR four 45° elbows OR a combination totaling no more than 180° ‘elbow degrees’ . For example, a combination of one 90° elbow and two 45° elbows is allowed (90°...
  • Page 29 10. ADJUSTING THE DRAFT As the Halcyon Gas Fireplace warms the attached venting, a draft is created. This draft acts on both the intake and exhaust sides of the venting and produces an effect on the Fireplace flames. In order to obtain the performance for which the Halcyon was designed, the air intake and exhaust outlet must be adjusted before the installation is complete.

  • Page 37 OPERATION As the Halcyon Gas Fireplace heats the air within the cabinet it rises up through the insulated ducts and out through the grilles. This heated air is replaced with cooler room air that enters the cabinet from around the Glass Panel Assembly. When the Halcyon cools, the movement of air stops.

  • Page 42 • Provided the required clearances are maintained, the walls that enclose the side and rear of the Halcyon Gas Fireplace may be constructed of combustible material. The facing within the limits shown in Figure 13, however, must be made of non-combustible material.

  • Page 43: Maintenance

    Do NOT clean the glass when it is hot! To keep your Halcyon Gas Fireplace in peak condition, routine inspection and maintenance should be performed by a qualified service person. We recommend that this be done prior to the beginning of your heating season.
  • Page 44 PERIODIC CLEANING NOTE: Both sides of the Halcyon glass panel must be cleaned after the first fire. As part of the ‘burn-off’ process, a white film may form on the inside of the glass during the first few fires. Do not allow the film to accumulate as it can become very difficult to remove.

  • Page 45: Troubleshooting

    Any repair and troubleshooting of the Halcyon Gas Fireplace must be done by a qualified technician only. Since the LED on the control module cannot been seen after the Fireplace has been installed, the following assumes that the Halcyon Burner Assembly has been safely connected to a test bench and that all appropriate safety precautions are being observed.
  • Page 46 Check gas supply and pressure to valve. Check sparks and wiring as above. Check limit switches, check sensor leads, check ground continuity, Does the Halcyon run until check pilot flame remains on flame sensor when main burner lights, turned off? check gas jets are clear, check for clean burn.
