aDjusting the VentuRies:
• Remove the ash shelf by undoing the screw at each end, pull shelf towards you.
• Remove one screw from the cover plate located below the ash shelf. Loosen the other screw (do not
remove) swing the cover plate out of the way and tighten screw down to hold it in place.
• With along screwdriver rotate spring clips to open or close the shutter to the desired setting.
The venturies allows the amount of air coming into the replace
to be adjusted in order to accommodate different climates and
venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make
sure the pilot ame is burning normally and none of the burner
ports are plugged. Let the replace burn for roughly fteen
minutes and then examine the ames, compare the ames to
Figure 26.
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange above.
The ames should be of medium height. If the ames look like
this, no venturi adjustment is needed. If the ames are fairly short
and mostly blue, the replace is getting too much air. Therefore,
the venturies should be closed slightly until the correct ames are
achieved. Flames that are very orange, with tall, dark, stringy

geneRaL Venting foR the eg28:
This stove should be vented by certied 4” (10 cm) Type B Gas Vent or a exible gas vent liner that may
be encased in 6” (15 cm) decorative stove pipe. The ue collar of the appliance will t inside of standard
vent and may be fastened directly to the vent.
The ENVIRO incorporates its own internal draft hood, so no additional external draft hood is required.
Check periodically that the vent is unrestricted and an adequate draught is present when the unit is in
operation.

The bottom of the vent cap shall extend
at least 2 feet (0.61 m) above the highest
point of the roof where it passes through
and at least 2 feet (0.61 m) higher than
any portion of the roof within a horizontal
distance of 10 feet (3.1 m).

Measure the height of the chimney beforehand and
purchase the appropriate kit. Never attempt to over
stretch a exible liner to accommodate the height of the
chimney.
• Any ue damper must be removed or locked permanently
in the open position.
• The chimney must be clean, in good working order and
constructed out of non-combustible materials.
• Make sure that all chimney clean-outs are tightly tting
and will not permit air to leak into the chimney.
• Make all gas connections and check for leaks.

stRaight VeRticaL instaLLation:
This basic venting conguration shown are rough
guidelines only. Follow national and local codes
for other installation options.
For the best venting performance, we recommend
a total vent height in the range of 10 feet (3.0 m)
to 30 feet (9.1 m). The total horizontal length
depends on the number of elbows used; a
90° elbow accounts for 5 feet (1.5 m) of the
horizontal run.
The venting should never slope down, a minimum
¼ inch (0.6 cm) rise is needed for every 2 feet
(61 cm) of horizontal is recommended.
If practical, it is best to locate the appliance to
permit the use of shorter horizontals and fewer
elbows.
Table 3. 90° elbows allowed verses the horizontal
length.
Number of 90°
elbows
220 feet (6.1 m)
313 feet (4.0 m)
46 feet (1.8 m)
50 feet (0 m)
Note: Using two (2) 45° elbows is equivalent to
using one (1) 90° elbow.
The venting rise should be a minimum of 1 foot
(0.31 m) from the top of the unit before any
horizontal run are used.

The placement of the logs is not
arbitrary. If they are positioned
incorrectly, the ames can be “pinched”
and will not burn correctly. The burner
come with ve (5) locator pins and two
(2) resing areas, which make alignment
easier. Using the pictures provided,
carefully set the logs in place.
NOTE: The logs are fragile and
should be handled gently.
CAUTION: Use only the type of ember
material supplied with this appliance.
Due to the irregular size of the ember

1. The embers can be place before
or after the logs are placed. A bag of
ceramic ber embers and rock wool
embers is provided gently remove the
ember material from the plastic bag.
Spread a layer loosely in a random
manner across the burner tray. Do not
allow any embers to rest against pilot
assembly. (See Figure 13 or 16 for
proper ember placement.)
DO NOT pack this ember material as
this could create an unsafe condition,
leave embers loose
2. Carefully remove logs from box.
Check to ensure there is no damage.
It is very important to install all logs
in their proper position to insure safe,
optimum operating conditions.
