SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF LP GAS

Propane (LP-Gas) is a ammable gas which can cause res

and explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and colorless. You may not know all the following safety precautions which can protect both you and your family from an accident. Read them carefully now, then review them point by point

with the members of your household. Someday when there may not be a minute to lose, everyone’s safety will depend on knowing exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information, you feel you still need more information, please contact your gas supplier.

LP-GAS WARNING ODOR

If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because of the odorant put in the LP-Gas.

That’s your signal to go into immediate action!

• Do not operate electric switches, light matches, use your phone.

Do not do anything that could ignite the gas.

• Get everyone out of the building, vehicle, trailer, or area. Do that IMMEDIATELY.

• Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.

• LP-Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas such as

basements. When you have reason to suspect a gas leak, keep

out of basements and other low areas. Stay out until reghters

declare them to be safe.

• Use your neighbor’s phone and call a trained LP-Gas service

person and the re department. Even though you may not

continue to smell gas, do not turn on the gas again. Do not re-enter the building, vehicle, trailer, or area.

• Finally, let the service man and reghters check for escaped

gas. Have them air out the area before you return. Properly trained LP-Gas service people should repair the leak, then check and relight the gas appliance for you.

NO ODOR DETECTED - ODOR FADE

Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell the

odor of the chemical put into the gas. You must nd out if you

can smell the odorant in propane. Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an odor for a time can affect your sensitivity or ability to detect that odor. Sometimes other odors in the area mask the gas odor. People may not smell the gas odor or their minds are on something else. Thinking about smelling a gas odor can make it easier to smell.

The odorant in LP-Gas is colorless, and it can fade under some circumstances. For example, if there is an underground

leak, the movement of the gas through soil can lter the odorant.

Odorants in LP-Gas also are subject to oxidation. This fading can

occur if there is rust inside the storage tank or in iron gas pipes.

The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or into walls, masonry and other materials and fabrics in a room. That will take some of the odorant out of the gas, reducing its odor intensity.

LP-Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor intensity could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air, there may be more odor at lower levels. Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you detect any odor, treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as instructed earlier.

SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER

• Learn to recognize the odor of LP-Gas. Your local LP-Gas

Dealer can give you a “Scratch and Sniff” pamphlet. Use it to

nd out what the propane odor smells like. If you suspect that

your LP-Gas has a weak or abnormal odor, call your LP-Gas Dealer.

• If you are not qualied, do not light pilot lights, perform service,

or make adjustments to appliances on the LP-Gas system. If

you are qualied, consciously think about the odor of LP-Gas

prior to and while lighting pilot lights or performing service or making adjustments.

• Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house has a musty

smell that can cover up the LP-Gas odor. Do not try to light pilot lights, perform service, or make adjustments in an area where the conditions are such that you may not detect the odor if there has been a leak of LP-Gas.

• Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust or adsorption on walls of

new cylinders and tanks, is possible. Therefore, people should be particularly alert and careful when new tanks or cylinders are placed in service. Odor fade can occur in new tanks, or

reinstalled old tanks, if they are lled and allowed to set too long before relling. Cylinders and tanks which have been out

of service for a time may develop internal rust which will cause

odor fade. If such conditions are suspected to exist, a periodic sniff test of the gas is advisable. If you have any question

about the gas odor, call your LP-Gas dealer. A periodic sniff test of the LP-Gas is a good safety measure under any condition.

• If, at any time, you do not smell the LP-Gas odorant and you

think you should, assume you have a leak. Then take the same immediate action recommended above for the occasion when you do detect the odorized LP-Gas.

• If you experience a complete “gas out,” (the container is under

no vapor pressure), turn the tank valve off immediately. If the container valve is left on, the container may draw in some air

through openings such as pilot light orices. If this occurs, some

new internal rusting could occur. If the valve is left open, then treat the container as a new tank. Always be sure your container is under vapor pressure by turning it off at the container

before it goes completely empty or having it relled before it is

completely empty.

Installing a New Main Gas Cock

Each appliance should have its own manual gas cock.

A manual main gas cock should be located in the vicinity of the unit. Where none exists, or where its size or location is not adequate, contact your local authorized installer for installation or relocation.

Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping shall be resistant

to the action of liqueed petroleum gases. The gas lines must be

checked for leaks by the installer. This should be done with a soap solution watching for bubbles on all exposed connections, and if unexposed, a pressure test should be made.

Never use an exposed ame to check for leaks. Appliance must

be disconnected from piping at inlet of control valve and pipe capped or plugged for pressure test. Never pressure test with

appliance connected; control valve will sustain damage!

NOTE: The gas controls are equipped with a captured screw type

pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8 in.

test point up stream of the control.

When using copper or ex connector use only approved ttings.

The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system

at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to

or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).

Attention! If one of the procedures results in pressures in excess

of 1/2 psig (14 in. w.c.) (3.5 kPa) on the replace gas valve, it will

result in a hazardous condition.

Checking Manifold Pressures

Both Propane and Natural gas valves have a built-in pressure regulator in the gas valve. Natural gas models will have a manifold

pressure of approximately 3.5 in. w.c. (.871kPa) at the valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 5.0 in. w.c. (1.245kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of

14.0 in. w.c. (3.484kPa). Propane gas models will have a manifold pressure approximately 10.0 in. (2.49kPa) at the valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 10.8 in. w.c. (2.68kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of

14.0 in. w.c. (3.484kPa).

To Use the Vent Graph

1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent pipe.

Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph, locate the point it intersects with the slanted graph line.

2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the

bottom of the graph.

3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the unit in accordance

with same.

EXAMPLE A:

If the vertical dimension from the top of the unit is 35 ft. (10.67 m), the

horizontal run to the outer wall ange must not exceed 5 ft (1.52 m).

EXAMPLE B:

If the vertical dimension from the top of the unit is 5 ft. (1.52 m), the

horizontal run to the outer wall ange must not exceed 11 ft. (3.35 m).

Special Note: For each 45 degree elbow installed in the horizontal run, the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18" (45cm). This does not apply if the 45 degree elbows are installed on the vertical part of the vent system. Reduce 3 ft. (91.4 cm) for every 90° elbow.

Example: According to the chart the maximum horizontal vent length is 20 ft. (6.10 m) and if two 45 degree elbows are required in the horizontal vent it must be reduced to 17 ft. (5.18 m).

The maximum number of 45 degree elbows permitted per side wall installation is two. These elbows can be installed in either the vertical or horizontal run.

NOTE: The rst elbow does not get counted.

Vertical Venting

When venting long straight vertical sections, use of the vertical vent

bafes may be required for optimal ame performance.

To install vertical vent bafes, align the two holes on the vertical vent bafe with the two holes in the ue bafe. Secure the vertical vent bafe with the screws provided. Repeat for both sides of the ue bafe.

Acceptable vertical and horizontal vent run. (40 ft. (12.19 m) maximum vertical and 20 ft. (6.10 m) maximum horizontal)

Below Grade Installation

When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal clearances of 12 in. (305mm) above grade level, a snorkel kit is recommended. It allows installation depth down to 7 in. (178mm) below grade level. The 7 in. (178mm) is measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.

Ensure the sidewall venting clearances are observed. If venting system is installed below ground, we recommend a window well with adequate and proper drainage to be installed around the termination area.

Cutting the Hole

After the replace has been positioned in its permanent location,

the hole through the exterior wall of the house can be cut. This hole must be 12 in. (305mm) high x 10 in. (254mm) wide with its center line determined by the amount of vertical rise and horizontal run of the termination. See Figure 26. When locating the hole it must be noted that the bottom of the cap must be 12 in. (305mm) above the ground level, and top of the cap must be no less than 18 in. (457mm) below a combustible projection, and no closer than 9 in. (229mm) to any wall running parallel to vent termination. See Figure 27.

TERMINATION CLEARANCES

Termination clearance for buildings with combustible and noncombustible exteriors.

Vertical Sidewall Installations Important! Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is three (3 in.) (76mm) on top, and (1 in.) (25mm) on bottom

and sides.

Important! When vent termination exits through foundation less than 20 in. (508 mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe must extend

outward so that the horizontal vent terminal is located ush to, or beyond the outcrop siding.

Information on Various Venting Routes and Components

Important: It is always best to locate the replace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.

Since it is very important that the venting system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the ue gas exhaust, certain limitations as to vent congurations apply and must be strictly adhered to.

The graph showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting will help to determine the various vent lengths allowable.

The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe from the ue collar of the replace to the face of the outer wall.

The maximum horizontal vent run is 20 ft. (457 cm) when the vertical vent rise is 8 ft. (244 cm). See Figure 21.

Venting terminals shall not be recessed into wall or siding.

VENT SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION

Installing Vent Components

Begin the vent system installation by installing the rst Duravent component to the starting collar, 24 inch (60.10 cm) minimum straight

pipe on the top of the appliance, then the remaining pipe length and the horizontal or vertical termination kit.

NOTE: All outer connection joints must be sealed with aluminum tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above 300°F/149°C. The

inner ue joints do not require any sealant.

Duravent vent system components lock into place by sliding the concentric pipe section with four (4) equally spaced interior beads onto the appliance collar or previously installed component end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections. When the internal beads of each starting outer pipe line up, rotate pipe section clockwise 90° (approximately 3 inches). The vent pipe is now locked together.

Continue adding components per the pre-planned vent system conguration. Be certain that each succeeding vent component is securely tted and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.

Installing Firestops

Firestops are required for safety whenever the vent system passes

through an interior wall, an exterior wall, or a ceiling. These restops act as a rebreak heat shield and as a means to insure that minimum

clearances are maintained to the vent system.

Horizontal runs in the vent system which pass through either interior

or exterior walls, require the use of wall restops on both sides of

the wall through which the vent passes.

Cut an appropriate sized hole in wall. See Figure 35. Position

restop on interior side of wall for hole.

Attention: Wall restop hole is off-set towards bottom of wall

opening. Secure with nails or screws. Continue the vent run through

the restop. See Figure 35.

Attention: Horizontal venting through a wall requires a wall

thimble on the interior side of the wall above the pipe.

HORIZONTAL TERMINATION

NOTE: Termination cap should pass through the wall restop from

the exterior of the building. Adjust the termination cap to

its nal exterior position on the building.

Warning: Termination cap must be positioned so that arrow is

pointing up.

Attach the termination cap with the four wood screws provided. Before attachment of the termination, run a bead of silicone sealant rated above 250°F on its outside edge too, so as to make a seal to the exterior wall.

NOTE: Wood screws can and should be replaced with appropriate

fasteners for use on stucco, brick, concrete or other types of siding.

CAUTION: If exterior walls are nished with vinyl siding, (or materials

that could become discolored or warp) it is necessary to install a vinyl siding standoff.

The vinyl siding standoff will be installed between the vent termination and the exterior wall. See Figure 39. This horizontal vent termination

bolts onto the at portion of the vinyl siding standoff, so an air space

will exist between the wall and the termination cap.

VERTICAL TERMINATION

Locate and mark the center point of the venting pipe. Using a nail on the underside of the roof and drive this nail through this center point. Make the outline of the roof hole around this center point.

NOTE: Size of the roof hole dimensions depend on the pitch of

the roof. There must be a 1 inch clearance (25mm) to the vertical pipe sections. This clearance is to all combustible material.

Cover the opening of the vent pipe and cut and frame the roof hole. Use framing lumber the same size as the roof rafters and install the frame securely. Flashing anchored to frame must withstand high winds. The storm collar is placed over this joint to make a water-tight

seal. Non-hardening sealant should be used to completely seal this ashing installation.

Determining Minimum Vent Height Above the Roof.

WARNING: Major U.S. building codes specify minimum chimney and/or vent height above the roof top. These minimum heights

are necessary in the interest of safety. These specications are summarized in Figure 40.

Note that for steep roof pitches, the vent height must be increased.

In high wind conditions, nearby trees, adjoining roof lines, steep pitched roofs, and other similar factors can result in poor draft, or down-drafting. In these cases, increasing the vent height may solve this problem.

When terminating the vent cap near an exterior wall or overhang,

maintain minimum clearances as shown in Figure 41.

General Maintenance

Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi-annually.

Recommended areas to inspect are as follows:

1. Check areas of the venting system which are exposed to the elements for corrosion. These will appear as rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes. These components should immediately be replaced.

2. Remove the cap and shine a ashlight down the vent. Remove

any bird nests or other foreign material.

3. Check for evidence of excessive condensate, such as water droplets forming in the inner liner and subsequently dripping out at joints. Condensate can cause corrosion of caps, pipe and

ttings. It may be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too

many elbows and exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.

4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe sections or ttings have been

disturbed and, consequently, loosened. Also, check mechanical

supports, such as wall straps or plumbers’ tape for rigidity.

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

A removable panel or other means must be provided in the enclosure

for visual inspection of the ue connection.

NOTE: This also pertains to vertical vent systems installed on the

outside of the building.

Slide the vertical vent cap over the ends of the vent pipe and secure.

See Figure 41.

Installing the Vent System in a Chase

A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas

appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vent runs on the outside of

a building may be, but are not required to be installed inside a chase.

CAUTION: Treatment of restop spacers and construction of

the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Therefore, your local building codes must be checked to determine the requirements for these steps.

NOTE: When installing this vent system in a chase, it is always good

building practice to insulate the chase as you would the outside walls of your home. This is especially important for cold climate installations. Upon completion of building your chase framing, install the vent system by following the instructions in this manual. Remember to build the chase large enough so that minimum clearance of combustible materials (including insulation) to the vent system are maintained.

Reassembly and Resealing Vent Pipe System

Attach vent pipe to inlet and outlet vent adaptor on replace, replace

horizontal and vertical pipe lengths, elbows and horizontal or vertical termination kit.

All vent system components lock into place by sliding the concentric pipe section with four (4) equally spaced interior beads onto the appliance collar or previously installed component end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections. When the internal beads of each starting outer pipe line up, rotate pipe section clockwise 90° (approximately 3 inches). The vent pipe is now locked together.

Continue replacing components per the vent system conguration. Be certain that each succeeding vent component is securely tted

and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.

Vertical Through the Roof Applications

Your Gas Fireplace has been approved for:

a) Vertical installations up to 40 ft. (12.19 m) in height. b) Two sets of 45 degree elbow offsets within these vertical

installations. From 0 to a maximum of 8 ft. a vent pipe can be used between elbows. See Figure 43.

c) Wall straps must be used to support offset pipe every 4 ft.

(1.22 m).

This application will require that you rst determine the roof pitch

and use the appropriate venting components.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance frequency must be determined individually for each

application. Some considerations are:

• Exposure to water, dirt, chemicals and heat can damage the

gas control and shut down the control system.

• Cycling frequency. Appliances that may cycle 20,000 times

annually should be checked monthly.

• Intermittent use. Appliances that are used seasonally should

be checked before shutdown and again before the next use.

• Dusty, wet or corrosive environment. Because these environments can cause the gas control to deteriorate more rapidly, the system should be checked more often.

• Any control should be replaced if it does not perform properly

on checkout or service. In addition, replace any module if it is wet or looks like it has been wet.

SERVICE

Do not disassemble the gas control; it contains non-replaceable components. Attempted disassembly or repair can damage the control. Exactly follow the warnings and the lighting instructions.

1. Before lighting, smell around the appliance area for gas. If the appliance uses LP (bottled) gas, be sure to smell next to

the oor because LP gas is heavier than air. If you smell gas,

immediately shut off the manual valve in the gas piping to the appliance or on LP at the tank. Do not try to light any appliance. Do not touch any electrical switch or use the phone. Leave the building and call your gas supplier. If your gas sup-

plier cannot be reached, call the re department.

2. The gas control must be replaced if it has been ooded with water. Call a qualied service technician.

3. The gas control is a safety device. It must be replaced in case of any physical damage such as bent terminals, missing parts, stripped threads, or evidence of exposure to excessive heat.

Follow the operating instructions provided by the manufacturer of your heating appliance.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Please Note It is normal for appliances fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noise during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.

It is not unusual for your gas replace to give off some odor the rst time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any

undetected oil from the manufacturing process.

Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.

It is recommended that you burn your replace for at least six (6) hours the rst time you use it.

IMPORTANT: Turn off gas before servicing appliance. It is

recommended that a qualied service person perform these check-

ups at the beginning of each heating season.

• Clean Burner and Control Compartment

Keep the control compartment, logs, and burner areas surrounding

the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.

Cleaning Procedure

1. Turn off pilot light at control module.

2. Remove glass front. (See Glass Removal)

3. Vacuum burner compartment.

4. Reinstall glass front.

5. Ignite pilot. (See Lighting Instructions)

6. Operate the pilot burner. If it appears abnormal call a service person.

• Check Vent System

The appliance and venting system should be inspected before

initial use and at least annually by a qualied service person.

Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure

that no debris is interfering with the air ow.

Glass Cleaning

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass

surface. Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight lm on the glass.

It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-abrasive ammonia free household cleaner and

warm water (we recommend gas replace glass cleaner, contact a

local dealer for this product). After that the glass should be cleaned two or three times during each heating season depending on the circumstances present.

General Glass Information

Warning: Do not operate appliance with the glass front removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the glass

should be done by a licensed or qualied service person.

Only glass approved for use by the manufacturer in replace may

be used for replacement. The glass replacement should be done

by a licensed or qualied service person.

WARNING:

1. The use of substitute glass will void all product warranties.

2. Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass.

3. Under no circumstances should this appliance be operated without the glass front or with a broken glass front. Replacement of the glass (with gasket) as supplied by the manufacturer should be

done by a qualied service person.

4. Do not abuse the glass by striking or hitting the glass.

WARNING: Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass. Do not attempt to clean glass when glass is hot.

Glass Removal and Replacement

1. Remove the front .

2. Unlatch the 4 spring clips going around the glass frame assembly. Use the included tool to make it easier.

3. Grasp the glass frame on the top and the bottom. Pull the glass

straight out to disengage the glass from the replace.

4. To replace, reverse the above steps. See Figure 55.
