SECTION I: FLUE SYSTEM FOR VENTED GAS FIREPLACE HEATER

A. Installation of a New System (See Installation Drawings at the end of this Manual)

This vented gas fireplace heater must be connected to four-inch (4”) diameter Type B-1 gas
pipe. This product is manufactured and certified to NFPA 54 and NFPA 211 “current edition”
standards. The minimum clearance of this pipe to combustible materials is one inch (1”). Never

use aluminum or galvanized steel pipe with this unit.

Single wall pipe may be used between the stove and ceiling or stove and wall; a minimum of
six inches (6”) clearance to combustible materials is required for this type of pipe. It is imperative
that the single wall pipe be terminated at the ceiling or wall, by connecting to a double wall B-1
Vent Pipe. Single wall pipe should never pass through a combustible wall or ceiling. Follow the
pipe manufacturer’s instructions for venting through a combustible area.
Installation requirements for single wall pipe or Type B-1 Vent Pipe are specified in the ANSI
Z223.1 or CAN1-B149 Standard “current edition.” These standards will also indicate proper
clearances to combustibles. Your stove dealer or qualified service person will be familiar with
these standards and can properly install the chimney system.
Connection of the pipe to the stove is accomplished by placing the pipe over the collar on the
top or rear of the unit; then secure the connection with a screw through the pipe.

Type B-1 Vent Pipe is designed for installation within a building -- it is not intended for outside
use unless it is enclosed in a protective structure and insulated. The requirement for this is clearly
stated in the Venting Tables, Category 1 – Central Furnaces, AGA and GAMA “current edition” for
U.S. Installations and Standards for Gas Vents; National Standards of Canada and CAN/CGA­B149.1-M91 for installations in Canada “current edition”. Condensation of exhaust gases may
occur and liquid may run down your chimney if the pipe is not enclosed and insulated. The flue
blockage sensor will also shut the unit down if the stove is not exhausting properly.

B. Existing Flue System

This stove may be connected to an existing pre-fabricated chimney or masonry chimney as
long as the B-1 Vent Pipe passes through the entire length of the chimney. In cases where it is
not possible to use rigid pipe, the four-inch (4”) flex pipe can be substituted. A qualified service
person is best suited for properly retrofitting your existing flue system for use with a gas product.
This vented gas fireplace heater must not be connected to a chimney serving a

separate solid fuel-burning appliance.

SECTION II: UNIT PREPARATION AND PRE-INSTALLATION

A. Unit Preparation

Note: We recommend using a handcart when unloading and placing this stove.
Never attempt to handle this unit without help.

When your unit arrives, it should first be uncrated. Remove all packing material outside the
stove and from the interior of the firebox, and open the firebox by unscrewing the bolt on the right
side of the doorframe. Remove the inflated air bag, instruction manual and wall thermostat from
the interior of the stove. Note: Do not remove the ceramic logs. If you do so by mistake, follow
the guidelines below for proper placement of the logs.

B. Log Placement

The logs are in the proper position when the unit leaves the plant. However, during the
shipping of the unit the assembly can become misarranged. Check to be sure the logs are still
located in the provided slot behind the front portion of the burner tube and the rear of the
assembly is touching the firewall. The front log should be straight up or perpendicular to the floor.

Contact the factory at 1-800-245-6489 if you see a cracked or broken log.

C. Top or Rear Vent

Your stove comes with the option of venting out of the
be set up for the desired venting direction prior to operating the unit.
First, remove the two screws that hold the grilled top onto the stove. They are located on the
back of the stove near the top.

For the top exit installation, place the flue collar on the top of the stove and fasten it with the
four (4) bolts, nuts and washers. Install the flue cover plate on the rear opening of the unit using
the supplied bolts, nuts and washers.

D. Gas Pressure

and 32,000 BTU/HR with natural gas. The supply gas pressures are listed in the manual under
the LISTING AND CODE APPROVALS and outlined under the “Performance Summary Table”
listed earlier. The gas supply line should be ½” in diameter with ½” male NPT for connection to
the stove. This connection point is found on the lower rear portion of the heater. It is also helpful
to install a 1/8” NPT plugged tap at the inlet to the stove for checking the inlet gas pressure. In
addition, it would be useful to add a manual gas shutoff at the inlet to the stove.
The inlet gas pressure to the stove should be adjusted in accordance with the guidelines
stated in the “Performance Summary Table.” The vented gas fireplace heater and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ PSIG (3.5 kPa).

E. High Altitude Installation

For Canadian installations, this stove is certified for elevations from 0 – 2000 feet
(0-610m) above sea level. For Canadian installations above 610 – 1370 meters, the orifice size
for natural gas is #35 DMS, and for liquid propane the size is #52 DMS per CAN/CGA 2.17 tests,
“current edition.”
For high altitude installations, consult the local gas distributor or the authority having
jurisdiction for proper rating methods. If the installer must convert the unit to adjust for varying
altitudes, the information sticker must be filled out and adhered to the appliance at the time of
conversion. (Sample Sticker:)
→This appliance has been converted for use at an altitude of _____________________

input. This decrease in gas flow is accomplished by using an orifice of the correct size. The input
should be reduced by four percent (4%) for each 1000 feet above sea level — a qualified gas
service person can determine the correct burner orifice. The unit is shipped with a #51 DMS
orifice for LP and a #33 orifice for natural gas.
All installation aspects of this stove must conform to the national fuel gas “listing and
code” ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CAN1-B149 “current edition.”

Position the vent safety shut-off switch so the switch is as far down in the flue as

The input rate of this vented gas fireplace heater is 33,200 BTU/HR with liquid propane

At the higher altitudes, gas codes make it necessary to decrease the amount of gas

SECTION III: WALL AND FLOOR PROTECTION

A. Heater Location and Wall Protection

This freestanding stove is a high efficiency unit, which means it gives off a great deal of heat.
For this reason, the unit should not be located in a traffic area or near drapes or curtains, which
present a fire hazard. It is important to allow for adequate clearance between the stove and the
nearest combustible; the unit must be at least three inches (3”) from a rear wall and twelve inches
(12”) from a combustible sidewall.
