LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Determine the safest and most efcient loca­tion for your FMI PRODUCTS, LLC direct-vent
replace. Make sure that rafters and wall
studs are not in the way of the venting system. Choose a location where heat output is not affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, win­dows or doors. Be aware of all restrictions and precautions before deciding the exact location
for your replace and termination cap. When deciding the location of your replace,
follow these rules:
• A projection may be ideal for a new addition on an existing nished wall. Refer to hori­zontal termination congurations on page 15 or vertical congurations on page 18.
• Do not connect fireplace venting to a chimney ue serving a separate solid-fuel burning replace or appliance.
• Due to high temperatures, do not locate replace in high trafc areas, windy or drafty
areas or near furniture or draperies.
• Never obstruct front opening of appliance or ow of combustion and ventilation air.
Keep control compartments accessible.

GENERAL VENTING
These models are approved for use with FMI PRODUCTS, LLC 5"-8" Series, rigid type direct vent pipe as supplied by FMI PROD-
UCTS, LLC or with approved types of exible vent pipe (not supplied) when appropriate sized for an 8" outer and 5" inner diameter
application.
Your replace is approved to be vented either
through the side wall, or vertically using the following guidelines:
• Only use FMI PRODUCTS, LLC supplied
or approved types of venting components or kits. Do not mix different types of vent components, modify vent components or custom fabricate vent components for use in any one installation.
• Minimum clearance between vent pipes
and combustible materials is 1", except where stated otherwise.
• Combustible material may be ush with the top front of replace with a maximum
thickness of 3/4".
• Do not recess venting terminals into a wall
or siding.
• Do not install vent terminals below grade
level. Maintain a minimum height of 12" above snow line.
• Do not terminate venting system into an
attic or garage.
• If using a venting conguration of only horizontal venting with no vertical run, a
1/4" rise for every 12" of run toward the
termination is required.
• There must not be any obstruction such
as bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks, or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the termination cap.
• Do not locate termination cap where exces­sive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to clear vent termination area after snow falls to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, do not direct snow towards vent termination area.
VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCES
The nal position of your appliance depends
on the location of the vent termination in rela­tion to the clearances that must be observed as shown in Figure 14, page 10.
You may avoid extra framing by positioning
your replace against an already existing framing member. The back of the replace
may be positioned directly against a com­bustible wall.
*Check with local codes. In the USA, follow the current National Fuel Gas Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1 also known as NFPA 54.

WARNING: Horizontal sec-
tions of this vent system require
a minimum clearance of 2" from
the top of the pipe and 1" mini­mum to the sides and bottom.
Vertical sections of this system require a minimum of 1" clear-
NOTICE: Failure to follow these
instructions will void the warranty.
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 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
• Be aware of electrical wiring locations in
walls and ceilings
The following actions will void the warranty on your venting system:
• Installation of any damaged venting com­ponent
• Unauthorized modication of the venting
system
• 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 gas appliance must use a separate vent system. Do not use common vent systems.

ance to combustible materials on all sides of the pipe.
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.
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 Termina-
tion Congurations on page 16.
For Vertical Termination: Measure distance
from replace ue outlet to ceiling. Add ceiling
thickness, vertical rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height above roof line. You may use one or two 90°
elbows in this vent conguration. See Vertical
Termination Congurations on page 19.
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, firestops 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 exterior of house. See Installing Vent System in a Chase, page 14.
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
Page 14
VENTING INSTALLATION
Continued
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 17).
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 chase (see Framing on page
8) install vent system by following installation
instructions.
INSTALLATION FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
1. Determine the route your horizontal vent­ing will take. Note: The location of horizon-
tal vent termination on exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes and must not be blocked or obstructed.
WARNING: Do not recess
vent terminal into a wall or sid-
ing. This is a re hazard.
Snorkel terminations are available for
terminations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of building (see Figures 15 and
16). Snorkel kits are available for rigid pipe
applications only to provide a 14" rise and
a 36" rise (see page 21). Follow the same
installation procedures used for standard
horizontal terminations. If installing snorkel
termination to raise vent termination from below grade level such as in a basement installation, you must provide proper drain­age to prevent water from entering snorkel
termination (see Figure 16). Do not back ll around snorkel termination.

2. Rigid vent pipes and ttings have special
twist-lock connections. Assemble desired combination of pipe and elbows to appli­ance adaptor with pipe seams oriented
towards wall or oor.
Twist-lock Procedure: Female ends
of pipes and ttings have four locking lugs (indentations). These lugs will slide
straight into matching slots on male ends
of adjacent pipes and ttings. Push pipe
sections together and twist one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn until sections are fully locked. See Figure 17, page 15. Note: Horizontal runs of vent
must be supported every three feet. Use wall straps for this purpose.
3. Attach vent pipe assembly to replace us­ing twist lock connections for rigid pipe or
clamp method for ex pipe. Set replace
in front of its permanent location to insure minimum clearances. Mark 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
18, page 15. The center of hole should line up with center line of 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.

4. Three types of vent caps are available
for horizontal terminations. Two square terminals are available; one for rigid pipe applications and one for ex pipe ap-
plications. A round vent termination with
a slip t connection is also provided for
rigid pipe applications to be used when a wall thickness or off spacing must be accommodated. Each may be purchased as a kit that includes a 45° elbow and a
restop that accommodates a square or
round termination (see Parts List for Vent­ing Kits and Components, page 21).
Noncombustible Exterior Wall: Apply a
bead of non-hardening mastic around out­side edge of vent cap. Position vent cap in center of the 8 1/2" hole on the exterior wall with arrow on vent cap pointing up. Attach vent cap with four wood screws
provided (see Figure 19). Note: Replace 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 vent cap and exterior wall. Siding standoff prevents excessive heat from damaging siding materials. Siding materials must be cut to accommodate standoff. Bolt vent cap to standoff. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of standoff. Position standoff/cap assembly in the center of square hole and attach to exte­rior wall with wood screws provided (see
Figure 20, page 16). Siding standoff must sit ush against exterior fascia material.
5. Connecting Vent Cap with Horizontal Vent Pipe: Slide wall restop over vent
pipe before connecting horizontal run to vent cap (see Figure 21, page 16).

6. Make nal connection to vent terminal.
Flush or recessed with short vent sys­tem: Vent system may be pre-sized. Check
for nal t and slide unit into framing with restop in place. This is helpful when using
rigid pipe and round vent termination. Vent may be preconnected and slipped through
restop. Make sure 45° connection at unit
is tight and does not come loose before unit is nailed to framing.
Square vent or long vent conguration:
Vent pipe must be manipulated at outer
end to make nal connection. Manually
secure pipe inside open framing. If this
is a retrot installation in an inaccessible
space, you may have to secure outer end of vent pipe with wall straps and tap screws at outer end.
When using tap screws with rigid pipe,
be sure that screws do not penetrate inner pipe. These procedures may also
be followed by exible pipe installations. To use exible pipe, vent must be drawn through end restop, cut back to 6"-8" to permit easy connection of ex termination
and connection must be slipped back into and secured to installation. You must use an adequate number of spring spacers at ends and closest bend to termination to
prevent kinks or collapsing on the re. Do not use screws with ex pipe. Vent system
must be code inspected and released before adding dry wall or other surface treatments.

Flat Ceiling Installation
1. Cut a 12 1/2" square hole in the ceiling us­ing locating hole as a center point. Open­ing should be framed to 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" inside dimensions, as shown in Figure 18 on page 13, using framing lumber the
same size as ceiling joists. If area above
ceiling is an insulated ceiling or an attic,
nail restop from top side. This prevents
loose insulation from falling into required clearance space. If area above ceiling is a
living space, install restop below framed hole. The restop should be installed with
no less than three nails per side (see
Figure 26).
2. Assemble desired lengths of pipe and
elbows necessary to reach from replace ue up through restop. Be sure all pipe
and elbow connections are fully twist-
locked (see Figure 17, page 14).
3. Cut a hole in roof using locating hole as a center point. (Cover any exposed open
vent pipes before cutting hole in roof.) The
12 1/2" x 12 1/2" hole must be measured
on the horizontal, actual length may be
larger depending on pitch of roof. There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials. Frame opening as shown in Figure 18 on page 15.
If area above is an attic, install restop
above framed hole.
If area above is a living space, install
restop below framed hole.
Figure 26 - Installing Firestop
4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through hole. If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must support vent pipe every 3 feet. Use wall straps for this purpose (see Figure 24, page 17). When­ever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less
restriction to the ow of ue gases and
intake air.
5. Place ashing over pipe section(s) ex­tending through roof. Apply a bead of
silicone or roof sealer to the bottom ange of ashing and secure base of ashing to roof and framing with roong nails. Be sure roong material overlaps top edge of ashing as shown in Figure 24, page 17.
There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials.
6. Continue to add pipe sections until the height of vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements described in Figure 14, page 11.
Note: You must increase vent height for
steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining
rooines, steep pitched roofs, and other
similar factors may cause poor draft or down-draft condition (see Figure 24, page
17). Increasing 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. Finish sealing ange around roong material with roong sealer.
Note: If vent pipe passes through any oc-
cupied areas above the rst oor, including
storage spaces and closets, you must enclose pipe. You may frame and sheetrock enclosure with standard construction material. Make sure and meet the minimum allowable clear-
ances to combustibles. Do not ll any required
air spaces with insulation.

1. Remove shingles or other roof covering as necessary to cut rectangular hole for sup­port box. Mark outline of cathedral ceiling support box on roof sheathing using the locating hole as a center point.
2. Cut hole 1/8" larger than the support box
outline (see Figure 27).
3. Lower support box through hole in roof until bottom of box extends at least 2"
below ceiling (see Figure 27). Align sup­port box vertically and horizontally using
a level. Temporarily tack support box in place through inside walls and into roof sheathing.
4. Using tin snips, cut support box from top
corners down to rooine and fold result­ing aps over roof sheathing (see Figure
28). Apply a bead of non-hardening mas-
tic around top edges of support box to
make a seal between box and roof. Nail in place with roong nails. Remove any
combustible material that might be inside of support box.

WALL SWITCH INSTALLATION
Since the (V)DVF36TPNEA/TSTEA series
uses a 24 VAC current supplied from a transformer mounted on the ignition module and is prewired for easy connection to a wall
switch (see Figure 34). The (V)DVF36TPNA/
TSTA models use a self generated millivolt current that allows you to activate the gas control valve directly without the use of normal
household electricity (see Figure 35). Both
versions are supplied with a wall switch kit for ready connection and mounting.
WARNING: Do not wire re-
mote wall switch to main power supply (Standard 120v house­hold current).
1. To remove louvers, simultaneously pull both top end spring latches towards center of appliance until they are disengaged from locating holes. Repeat for bottom spring latches and pull louvers outward. Reverse procedure to install louvers back
onto appliance (see Figure 36).
2. Connect 18 gauge wires from wall switch to gas control valve terminals marked TH and TPTH or to ignition module using pigtails and wire nut connectors supplied with appliance.

GAS LINE HOOK-UP
WARNING: Before you pro­ceed, make sure your gas supply is OFF.
WARNING: Gas line hookup should be done by your gas supplier or a qualied service person.
An equipment shutoff valve has been included in the appliance’s gas supply system. You may consider installing an extra gas shutoff valve outside appliance’s enclosure (check
with local codes) where it can be accessed
more conveniently with a key through a wall as shown in Figure 41.
Route a 1/2" NPT black iron gas line towards
appliance coming in from the left. It is recom-
mended to route pipe between stand of rebox and surround of replace (see Figure 42).
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 ex­ible 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 incoming gas line and gas control valve (see Figure
42). The sediment trap should extend
down center of pipe. Refer to your local codes.

PILOT/ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY ADJUSTMENT
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper ame height. Alteration to these set­tings may have occurred during shipping and handling. If this is the case, some minor adjustment may be necessary and should be
done by a qualied technician. To access pilot
assembly, glass door must be opened. The proper settings for thermopile height should
be at a distance of 3/8" to 1/2" from pilot ame
as shown in Figure 51. The electrode is installed at the factory for
proper positioning. However, alterations to position may have occurred due to shipping and handling. These settings may need
adjustment and must be done by a qualied
technician. The correct position and height is as shown in Figure 52.

OPERATING GUIDELINES AND MAINTENANCE
When lit for the rst time, appliance may emit
a slight odor for about 16 - 24 hours. This is normal and is due to the “curing” of logs and “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Keep compart­ments, logs, burners, and area surrounding logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. Temporary removal of log set may ease cleaning of burner and pilot as­sembly. In cleaning, take care not to alter pilot or burner location. Be sure appliance is cool before each maintenance session.
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.
