INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Read all instruc-
tions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation.
Failure to do so could result in
serious injury, property damage or loss of life.
WARNING: Seal all connec-
tions with high temperature
silicone every time a vent con-
nection is made. Before joining elbows or pipes, apply a bead of high temperature silicone
sealant to the male end of the
elbow or pipe. High temperature silicone must also be used to re-
seal any connections after main-
tenance to venting system.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these in-
structions will void the warranty.
• Installation of any component part not manufac­tured or approved by FMI PRODUCTS, LLC
• Installation other than as instructed by these
instructions
WARNING: This gas replace and vent assembly must be vented directly to the outside. The venting system must NEVER be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance. Each direct-vent gas appliance must use a separate vent system. Do not use common vent systems.
INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct-vent installation:
• Horizontal Termination
• Vertical Termination
It is important to select the proper length of vent pipe for the type of termination you choose. It is also important to note the wall thickness.
For Horizontal Termination: Select the amount of
vertical rise desired. The horizontal run of venting must have 1/4" rise for every 12" of run towards the termination.
NOTICE: Do not seal termination
cap to vent pipe. Cap must be removable for vent inspection and maintenance.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
Consult local building codes before beginning the installation. The installer must make sure to select the proper vent system for installation. Before installing vent kit, the installer must read this
replace manual and vent kit instructions. Only a qualied service person should install
venting system. The installer must follow these safety rules:
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection
• Use extreme caution when using ladders or
when on roof tops

WARNING: Never run the vent downward as this may
cause excessive temperatures which could cause a re.
You may use one or two 90° elbows in this vent
conguration. See Horizontal Termination Con-
gurations on page 14.
For Vertical Termination: Measure the distance
from the replace ue outlet to the ceiling. Add
the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or
second story, and allow for sufcient vent height
above the roof line. You may use one or two 90°
elbows in this vent conguration. See Vertical
Termination Congurations on page 17.
Note: You may use two 45° elbows in place of a 90° elbow. You must follow rise to run ratios when using 45° elbows.
For two-story applications, restops are required at each oor level. If an offset is needed in the attic,
additional pipe and elbows will be required. You may use a chase with a vent termination with
exposed pipe on the exterior of the house. See In- stalling Vent System in a Chase, page 12.

Your FMI PRODUCTS, LLC direct-vent replace
has been tested for a minimum 3' rise with a maxi­mum 11" wall thickness. Any horizontal application longer than 12" must provide a minimum of 1 foot of vertical rise for every 3 feet of horizontal run. The maximum horizontal run is 20' with 8' vertical rise (see Installation for Horizontal Termination). The maximum vertical run is 30' (see Installation for Vertical Termination, page 15).
Installing Vent System in a Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose venting that runs along the outside of a building.
NOTICE: Treatment of restops
and construction of the chase
may vary from building type to building type. These instruc­tions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. You must follow all local building codes.
Note: When installing in a chase, you should insulate the chase as you would the outside walls of your home. This is especially important in cold climates. Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials such as insula­tion is 1".
After framing the chase (see Framing on page 7) install the vent system by following the installa­tion instructions.
INSTALLATION FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
1. Determine the route your horizontal venting
will take. Note: The location of the horizontal vent termination on the exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes and must not be blocked or obstructed.
Snorkel terminations are available for termina-
tions requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of the building (see Figures 12 and 13). Snorkel kits are available for rigid pipe applications only to provide a 14" rise and a 36" rise (see page 18). Follow the same installation proce­dures used for standard horizontal terminations. If installing the snorkel termination to raise the vent termination from below grade level such as in a basement installation, you must provide proper drainage to prevent water from entering the snorkel termination (see Figure 13). Do not
back ll around the snorkel termination.
2. Rigid vent pipes and ttings have special
twist-lock connections. Assemble the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the appli­ance adaptor with pipe seams oriented towards
the wall or oor.

Twist-lock Procedure: The female ends of the
pipes and ttings have four locking lugs (in­dentations). These lugs will slide straight into
matching slots on the male ends of adjacent pipes and ttings. (All connections must be
sealed with high temperature silicone sealant
as specied in the second warning statement
on page 11). Push the pipe sections together and twist one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn until the sections are fully locked. See Figure 14. Note: Horizontal runs of vent must be supported every three feet. Use wall straps for this purpose.
3.
Attach vent pipe assembly to the replace using twist lock connections. Set replace in front of
its permanent location to insure minimum clear­ances. Mark the wall for a 10 3/4" square hole (for noncombustible material such as masonry block or concrete, a 8 1/2" diameter hole is acceptable). See Figure 15. The center of the hole should line up with the center line of the rigid vent pipe. Cut a 10 3/4" x 10 3/4" square hole through combustible exterior wall (8 1/2" diameter hole if noncombustible). Frame as necessary.
Male Slots
4. Noncombustible Exterior Wall: Apply a bead of non-hardening mastic around the outside edge of the vent cap. Position the vent cap in the center of the hole on the exterior wall with the arrow on the vent cap pointing up. Attach the vent cap with four wood screws provided (see Figure 16). Note: Replace the wood screws with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of siding.
Combustible Exterior Wall: For vinyl siding,
stucco, or wood exteriors, a siding standoff must be installed between the vent cap and exterior wall. The siding standoff prevents excessive heat from damaging siding materials. Siding materials must be cut to accommodate standoff. Bolt the vent cap to the standoff. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of the standoff. Position the standoff/cap assembly in the center of the square hole and attach to exterior wall with wood screws pro­vided (see Figure 17). The siding standoff must
sit ush against the exterior fascia material.

INSTALLATION FOR VERTICAL TERMINATION
NOTICE: Use rigid pipe only. Flex venting is not to be used with a vertical termination.
1. Determine the route your vertical venting will
take. If ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other
framing will obstruct the venting system, consider an offset (see Figure 21) to avoid cutting load bearing members.
Note: Pay special attention to these installa-
tion instructions for required clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, etc. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Also note maximum vertical rise of the vent­ing system and any maximum horizontal offset limitations. Offsets must fall within the parameters shown in Figure 22.
2. Set the replace in desired location. Drop a
plumb line down from the ceiling to the posi-
tion of the replace exit ue. Mark the center
point where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small locating hole at this point.
Drop a plumb line from the inside of the roof
to the locating hole in the ceiling. Mark the center point where the vent will penetrate the roof. Drill a small locating hole at this point.

Flat Ceiling Installation
1. Cut a 10 3/4" square hole in the ceiling using the locating hole as a center point. The open­ing should be framed to 10 3/4"x10 3/4" inside dimensions, as shown in Figure 18 on page 14 using framing lumber the same size as the
ceiling joists. If the area above the ceiling is an insulated ceiling or an attic space, nail restop
from the top side. This prevents loose insula­tion from falling into the required clearance space. If the area above the ceiling is a living
space, install restop below the framed hole. The restop should be installed with no less
than three nails per side (see Figure 23).
If area above is an attic, install restop
above framed hole.

2.
Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and
elbows necessary to reach from the replace ue up through the restop. All connections
must be sealed with high temperature silicone
sealant as specied in the second warning
statement on page 11. Be sure all pipe and elbow connections are fully twist-locked (see Figure 14, page 13 ).
3. Cut a hole in the roof using the locating hole as a center point. (Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof.) The 10 3/4" x 10 3/4" hole must be measured on
the horizontal; actual length may be larger
depending on the pitch of the roof. There must be a 1" clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials. Frame the opening as shown in Figure 15 on page 13.
4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through the hole. If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must support the vent pipe every 3 feet. Use wall straps for this purpose (see Figure 21, page 15). Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows. The 45°
elbow offers less restriction to the ow of the ue gases and intake air.
5. Place the ashing over the pipe section(s)
extending through the roof. Apply a bead of
silicone or roof sealer to the bottom ange of ashing and secure the base of the ashing to the roof and framing with roong nails. Be sure roong material overlaps the top edge of the ashing as shown in Figure 21, page 15.
There must be a 1" clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials.
6. Continue to add pipe sections until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements described in Figure 11, page 9. Note: You must increase vent height
for steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining rooines, steep pitched roofs, and other simi-
lar factors may cause poor draft or down-draft condition (see Figure 22, page 15). Increasing the vent height may solve this problem.
7. Apply a bead of sealer to the upper edge of
ashing collar. Slide storm collar over pipe and down to top edge of ashing. Apply a second
bead of silicone or roof sealer around remain­ing seam of storm collar. Twist-lock vent cap onto last section of vent pipe and seal with
high temperature silicone sealant as specied
in the second warning statement on page 11.
Finish sealing ange around roong material with roong sealer.
www.fmiproducts.com
Note: If the vent pipe passes through any occupied
areas above the rst oor, including storage spaces
and closets, you must enclose pipe. You may frame and sheetrock the enclosure with standard construc­tion material. Make sure and meet the minimum
allowable clearances to combustibles. Do not ll
any of the required air spaces with insulation.
Cathedral Ceiling Installation
1. Remove shingles or other roof covering as necessary to cut the rectangular hole for the support box. Mark the outline of the cathedral ceiling support box on the roof sheathing using the locating hole as a center point.
2. Cut the hole 1/8" larger than the support box outline (see Figure 24).
3. Lower the support box through the hole in the roof until the bottom of the box extends at least 2" below the ceiling (see Figure 24). Align the support box vertically and horizontally using a level. Temporarily tack the support box in place through the inside walls and into the roof sheathing.
4. Using tin snips, cut the support box from the
top corners down to the rooine and fold the resulting aps over the roof sheathing (see
Figure 25). Apply a bead of non-hardening mastic around the top edges of the support box to make a seal between the box and the roof.
Nail in place with roong nails. Remove any
combustible material that might be inside of the support box.

IMPORTANT: The appliance 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 1/2 psig. (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual equipment shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.5 kPa).
CAUTION: Do not kink ex-
ible gas line.
CAUTION: Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping shall be resistant to the action of Liqueed Petroleum (LP or propane), and should be applied lightly to ensure excess sealant does not enter the gas line.
1. Install a sediment trap between the incoming gas line and the gas control valve (see Figure
39). The sediment trap should extend down the center of the pipe. Refer to your local codes.
2. Prepare incoming gas line and check with
local codes regarding the use of teon tape.
Complete your gas line installation by con-
necting incoming gas line with exible gas
line. Secure tightly with a wrench, but DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

WARNING: Make certain
that wires and gas lines are not touching underside of rebox.
WARNING: Children and
adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface tem­peratures, and to stay away from the appliance to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised
when they are in the same room
as the appliance.
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
When lit for the rst time, the appliance may emit a
slight odor for about 16 - 24 hours. This is normal and is due to the “curing” of the logs and the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufactur­ing process. Keep compartments, logs, burners, and area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. Temporary removal of the log set may ease the cleaning of the burner and pilot assembly. In cleaning, take care not to alter the pilot or burner location. Be sure appliance is cool before each maintenance session.
CAUTION: The appliance and logs can get very hot. Handle only when cool.
WARNING: Turn off gas and wall switch before servicing appliance. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing the appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
WARNING: Make certain
wires and gas lines are not touching the underside of the rebox.
www.fmiproducts.com
WARNING: Have a qualied
agency periodically inspect the
vent system at the start of each heating season, for any obstruc­tion which may hinder its normal
operation. Never obstruct the ow of combustion and venti­lation air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles and materials.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and danger­ous operation.
CLEANING AND REPLACING
GLASS DOOR
Note: Before proceeding, make sure unit is com­pletely cool.
1. Remove top and bottom louvers and screen assembly. Undo 4 latches and open glass door. The procedure is the same for the end louver panel but the entire frame must be removed as one assembly.

MAINTENANCE
Continued
2. To clean glass door, DO NOT remove glass from frame. Use any glass cleaner to clean glass. Do not use abrasive cleaners as this may damage glass.
3. If replacement is necessary, the entire assem­bly (frame and glass) must be replaced. If glass is broken, wear gloves and tape remaining fragments onto the frame. Remove 5 screws
located on end of rebox while holding frame
assembly to prevent it from falling and caus-
ing injury (see Figure 53). Mount new frame
at hinge with 5 new screws. Close and latch door. This will seat the gasket. If replacing end glass panel, remove 16 screws around frame
(see Figure 54) To insure proper t, when
installing new glass panels make sure seam in gasket is placed in the down position.
