Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Gas Heater

General Information

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater, Model Nos. 3900-3916, 3940-3956 is a vented gas appliance listed to the ANSI standard Z21.88b-2002 and CSA-2.33b-2002 for Vented Room Heaters, and CSA 2.17-M91, Gas-Fired Appliances For Use at High Altitudes.

The installation of the Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54

— latest edition and CSA B-149.1 Installation Code. (EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for altitude. Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5” w.c. for Natural Gas and 10.0” w.c. for LP gas at maximum input.) Refer to Page 32 (RF only).

This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for use with other gases unless a certified kit is used.

Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization equipment or accessories, and repair and servicing of equipment shall be performed only by a qualified agency. The term “qualified agency” means any individual, firm, corporation, or company that either in person or through a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a) installation or replacement of gas piping, or (b), the connection, installation, repair, or servicing of equipment, who is experienced in such work, familiar with all precautions required, and has complied with all the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service agency. It is imperative that control compartments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

‘Direct Vent’ describes a sealed combustion system in which incoming outside air for combustion and outgoing exhaust enter and exit through two separate concentric passages within the same sealed vent system. The system does not use room air to support combustion. The Direct Vent system permits the gas appliance to be vented directly to the outside atmosphere through the side of the house or vertically through the roof. Conventional venting systems (Natural Vent) take air from the room for combustion and vent the exhaust vertically through the roof to the atmosphere.

This appliance is approved for bedroom installations in the U.S. and Canada.

This appliance may be installed in an aftermarket* manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by state or local codes.

WARNING: Operation of this heater when not connected to a properly installed and maintained venting system can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, (latest edition), or of the current Canadian Electrical Code C22.1.

Due to high temperatures this appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.

WARNING: This appliance is hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause burns or ignition of combustible materials.

Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance.

Clothing or other flammable materials should not be placed on or near the appliance.

Any safety screen, glass or guard removed for servicing an appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.

The appliance area must be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed. The installation must include adequate accessibility and clearance for servicing and proper operation.

WARNING: Do not operate the Room Heater with the glass panel removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the panel should be done by a licensed or qualified service person.

Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

Do not burn wood, trash or any other material for which this appliance was not designed. This appliance is designed to burn either natural gas or propane only.

This gas appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.

Verify proper operation after servicing.

Proposition 65 Warning: Fuels used in gas, woodburning or oil fired appliances, and the products of combustion of such fuels, contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm.

Attention

The Stardance stove is shipped from the factory as a Direct Vent Gas Heater. This heater may be converted into a Natural Vent unit in the field. If a Natural Vent heater is desired, the Vermont Castings Z31D00 FSDHAG Draft Hood must be directly installed to the top of the unit according to the installation instructions. The Draft Hood Adapter is available in the 7FSDHASK stove kit or as a separate item.

When the Stardance stove is converted to Natural Vent, it uses 4” vent pipe. For aesthetic purposes the CFM direct vent system may be used up to the ceiling.

Installation Requirements

The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition. (EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for altitude. Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5 inches w.c. for Natural Gas, and 10 inches w.c. for Propane).

In Canada, installation must be in accordance with the current CSA B-149.1 Installation Codes and/or local codes.

The installation should be done by a qualified service person who is familiar with the building codes and installation techniques appropriate for your area to accomplish a safe and effective installation.

Your dealer or your local gas supplier will be able to refer a qualified service person.

The surface of the Heater Is hot when it is in use. Young children should be watched carefully when they are in the same room when the Heater is in use, and they should be taught to avoid the hot surface. Keep any objects that can burn well away from the Heater, and observe the recommended clearances that follow.

Locating the Stove

In choosing a location for the stove, consider:

The location of outside walls;

Where additional heat is needed:

Where family members gather most often;

The vent system requirements.

NOTE: We do not recommend the use of wallpaper next to this stove. Over time, radiant heat may cause the wallpaper to shrink, or may adversely affect the binders in the wallpaper adhesive.

Clearance Requirements

Minimum Clearances to Combustible Materials

Measure side clearances as shown in Figures 3 and 4 from the outer edge of the cast iron stove top. Measure rear clearances from the outermost surface of the steel rear skirt.

The Stardance heater is approved for installation into an alcove constructed of combustible materials to the dimensions and clearances shown on the next page.

The same clearances apply in a standard parallel installation.

Warning:

• Always maintain required clearances (air spaces) to nearby combustibles to prevent fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation. All venting components must maintain a 1” (25 mm) clearance to combustible materials. Maintain a 6” (150 mm) clearance when using a single wall pipe.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each direct vent appliance must use its own separate vent system. Common vents are prohibited.

Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions included with the venting system for complete installation procedures.

*The restrictor Plate is used on Direct Vent Installations Only.

Vent Termination Clearances

When planning the installation, consider the location of the vent terminal and clearances. Some of the most common clearances to keep in mind are shown in Figure 10.

Important: All vent clearances must be maintained. Check your vent termination clearances against Figures 9 through 11.

The vent should be placed so that people cannot be burned by accidentally touching the vent surfaces when the stove is operating.

The vent termination should be located where it cannot be damaged by such things as automobile doors, lawn mowers or snowblowers and it should be located away from areas where it could become blocked by snow, etc.

Some considerations are:

Obstructions or impediments to venting.

Nearby combustible materials that could come into contact with combustion exhaust gases.

Other nearby openings {within 12” (305mm)} through which exhaust gas could reenter the building.

All vegetation within 3’ ((76mm) that may interfere with the draft.

Other factors that influence where the installation will be sited include the location of outside walls, where additional heat may be desired in the home, where the family members gather most regularly, and perhaps most importantly, the distance limitations of the venting system.

IMPORTANT

Direct Vent Only

The horizontal termination must not be recessed into the exterior wall or siding.

Horizontal vent runs must be level toward the vent termination.

Clearances around the vent termination must be maintained.

For installations using Simpson DuraVent pipe, parallel installations with minimum wall clearance have restricted access for connecting the Horizontal Vent Cap straps to the vent pipe. See the maker’s instructions for recommended installation procedures.

20007065

Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Gas Heater

Vent Termination Clearances

Your stove is approved to be vented either through the side wall, or vertical through the roof.

CFM Corporation does not require any opening for inspection of vent pipe.

Only CFM Corporation and Simpson DuraVent venting components specifically approved and labelled for this stove may be used.

Minimum clearances between vent pipes and combustible materials is one (1”) inch (25 mm), except where stated otherwise.

Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or siding.

Horizontal venting must be installed on a level plane without an inclining or declining slope.

There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within 24” from the front of the termination hood.

Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent termination area.

Location of Vent Termination

It is imperative the vent termination be located observing the minimum clearances as shown on this page.

Install the Optional Fan

If you are installing the optional convection Fan Kit #2767 (FK26), continue here. If you are not installing a Fan Kit, go to Page 14, Venting System Assembly.

1.The fan kit includes a Blower Assembly and a Rheostat Assembly, connected by a cable. (Fig. 12) The Blower Assembly mounts to the bottom rear of the stove, and the Rheostat mounts to the valve bracket to the left of the valve. The assembly includes a ‘snapstat’ which automatically turns the fan On (or Off) above (or below) approximately 109˚. The Rheostat also provides a range of fan speed settings from Off (which overrides the snapstat function) to High. Unpack and inspect the Blower assembly. Confirm the fan spins freely.

WARNING

This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounded) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
