ASSEMBLY

The Clarity 828I Fireplace Insert comes with the

log set packed inside the rebox. The three trim

panels and two wing brackets are packed together in a separate carton.

Right Wing Bracket

Left Wing Bracket

NOTE: The wing brackets must go on before the door.

A second shipping carton contains the wing panels. Two different size wing panel sets are available for the Clarity Insert: large (32-1/2" X 44"), and small (30" X 40"). The set that will work best with the

replace opening should be used. The wing panels may be trimmed to t inside the replace opening if a ush look is desired.

Before the unit is installed, all components should be unpacked. The cross log must be removed, the packing material taken out, and then re-installed.

The Clarity 828I is shipped from the factory equipped to burn propane. If Natural Gas is to be used, conversion kit # 1-00-09009 must be installed at this time as well. See the fuel conversion instructions in Appendix A on page 16.

Removing the Glass door

NOTE: The glass door is heavy. Be prepared for

its weight when lifting it to avoid damage during

removal.

Locate latches on each side of the glass door. Then, grasp each latch handle and pull forward until the front is disengaged. Lift the glass door slightly and remove it from the stove. Set the glass door aside in a safe place where it will not be damaged.

WARNING: Do not abuse the glass on the Clarity Fireplace Insert front by striking, slamming, or similar trauma. Do not operate this Fireplace Insert with the glass panel removed, cracked or broken. Use only glass supplied by Harman and approved for use with this heater.

Do not use substitute materials. Replacement

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

ASSEMBLY

Removing and Replacing logs

The log set consists of a back log (1), a center log that has a pilot-viewing port in the left end (2), 2-piece ember strip (3), and a cross log that rests on top (4).

Remove the cross log, the center log, and the em-

ber strips, in that order. To remove the rear log, rst

pull the fuel system module forward about an inch, to create clearance, then lift the log out.

Re-install the logs in the same order that they were

removed. Place the rear log in position rst, centered

and pushed snugly against the back wall, and slide the fuel system module back into position.

Re-install the ember strips so that they rest against

the front of the rebox. Guide them toward you and to the outside until they t snugly. Check the air slot inside from the ember strips to conrm that they do

not obstruct it.

Install the center log so that it goes all the way to the back and is centered. When properly positioned, there should be an even gap along the front of the center burner in the cavity in the log. A small portion of the log support frame will be revealed. The center log has a round viewing port in the left end through which the pilot can be observed.

Install the cross log, making sure that it is oriented with the forked end toward the left rear of the stove, and slip it over the front locator pin.

Re-install and Secure the Glass door

NOTE: The glass door is heavy. Lift it carefully to prevent damage. Center the glass on the opening and suspend it in place by placing the tab hooks over the top edge of the opening. Press the glass slightly against the stove to conrm that it seats properly, then press it rmly against the front while pushing the levers to the rear to engage them.

INSTALLATION

PRELIMINARY STEPS TO PREPARE FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE CLARITY FIREPLACE INSERT

Remove the chimney cap if one exists so that the ue

may be cleaned and the venting installed.

Remove any existing hearth accessories such as glass

doors, spark screens, andirons, and grates.

Clean the chimney thoroughly to remove ash, soot,

and any obstructions, and then clean ash, soot, dust,

and debris from the replace.

The damper must be locked open to allow the 4" venting to pass through. If it is necessary to modify the damper area to allow passage of the venting, the

modications should be allowed under local codes. Conrm any planned changes with local building ofcials.

Use Only Approved Venting

The Clarity 828I Vented Gas Fireplace Insert is tested and listed for connection to a 4" (100 mm) listed Class B venting system.

If the unit is installed to vent through an approved masonry chimney or a factory-built chimney system,

a listed lining system approved for use with gas-red

appliances must be used.

Observe local codes when venting the Clarity. If no local codes exist, follow the current edition of ANSI Z223.1 and CAN1- B149 installation codes.

Do not connect the venting to the ue of a chimney

that serves a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.

The venting manufacturer's installation instructions must be followed exactly.

The Clarity Fireplace Insert is equipped with its own integral draft hood so no additional draft hood is required. The heater should be installed so that the draft hood is in the same atmospheric pressure zone as the air inlets to the heater.

The most efcient venting systems are those that

have a minimum number of bends and minimal horizontal runs.

The Clarity Fireplace Insert is equipped with a thermally activated vent safety switch which will shut down the main burner if the heater is not venting properly. The safety switch will automatically reset after the heater has cooled down.

The switch will continue to cycle off and on until the venting problem is corrected. If you are unable to correct the venting problem, seek expert advice from your Harman dealer or installer.

DO NOT DISCONNECT OR BYPASS THE

VENT SAFETY SWITCH.

WARNING: Operation of this heater when

not connected to a properly installed and main-

tained venting system or tampering with the vent safety shutoff system can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.

IMPORTANT: Because of the high efciency and low ue gas temperatures of this appliance, it is important that it be connected to a well-sealed and efcient venting system which is capable of registering a negative pressure while the stove is

in operation.

Page 8

INSTALLATION

Test for Flue Spillage

A spillage test should always be made at the completion of the installation, and at least annually thereafter.

1. Start all exhaust fans in the home and then close all doors and windows in the room containing the heater.

2. Light the heater and allow it to run for 5 minutes on the high output setting. The convection air blower should be turned off for the test.

3. Remove the left trim panel, which is held in place by a clip at the bottom and a magnet at the top, and place a source of smoke (such as a match,

lighter, or a cigarette) in front of the ue spillage test

tube.

The smoke should be drawn into the tube. If it is not, let the heater run for 5 more minutes and repeat the test.

4. If the smoke is not drawn into the tube, turn off the heater and determine why there is no draft. If necessary, seek expert advice.

For sites with swirling or turbulent wind condi-

tions, a wind cap may solve the problem.

Draft Test Tube

Connecting the Clarity 828I Fireplace Insert to a Gas Supply.

Burn Only the Fuel for Which the Heater is Equipped.

The Clarity Fireplace Insert will burn either natural gas or propane, but requires a conversion if Natural Gas is to be burned. The label on the burner system module indicates the fuel for which it is equipped. The Prpoer box must be marked upon installation or conversion.

NATURAL

PROPANE

Making The Connection

The gas inlet is located at the bottom right rear of the

Insert. The inlet tting is a 1/2" male pipe thread.

A separate gas shut-off valve and a 1/8" N.P.T. plugged tapping should be installed immediately upstream of the connection to the appliance.

The Clarity Fireplace Insert must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The Clarity gas control valve must be in the OFF position during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Remove Left Wing Cover to Expose Draft Test Tube.

WARNING: To avoid pipe compounds from

entering into the gas train, apply compounds only to the male pipe threads and not to the rst two threads.

CAUTION: TEST ALL PIPE JOINTS FOR

LEAKS BEFORE OPERATING

Gas Pressure Requirements

Correct gas pressure and the use of a properly

sized gas supply line are essential for the safe and

efcient performance of this appliance. Make sure

that the plumber or gas supplier checks the gas supply line and gas pressure at installation.

NOTE: Improper gas pressure can affect heater

performance, ame color, or cause pilot outage.

Natural Gas:

Maximum inlet pressure 7.0" w.c. (1.74 kPa) Minimum inlet pressure 5.0" w.c. (1.25 kPa) Gas manifold pressure 3.5" w.c. (0.87 kPa)

LPG Gas:

Maximum inlet pressure 13" w.c. (3.24 kPa) Minimum inlet pressure 11" w.c. (2.74 kPa) Gas manifold pressure 10" w.c. (2.49 kPa)

DO NOT USE THIS HEATER IF ANY PART

HAS BEEN UNDER WATER OR EXPOSED TO

MOISTURE CORROSION. IMMEDIATELY CALL A QUALlFlED SERVICE TECHNICIAN TO INSPECT THE HEATER AND REPLACE ANY PART OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM AND ANY GAS CONTROL WHICH HAS BEEN UNDER WATER.

Connecting the Cord Set

The Clarity Fireplace Insert, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the the current edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 in the United States or the current Canadian Electrical Code CSA 22.1 in Canada.

This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug.

NOTE: The convection fan requires a 120 VAC supply for operation, but the heater can be operated without the fan as in the case of a power outage.

Plug the 3-prong grounded electrical cord plug into the wall outlet.

Connecting the Optional Thermostat

If the optional thermostat is used, it must be plugged into the terminal strip located behind the right side of the air inlet grill. It can be accessed by sliding open the control access drawer.

When installing a millivolt control system, use only a special low resistance thermostat. Do not use a regular heating thermostat.

Be sure that all electrical connections are clean, free from corrosion, and tight. Inspect connections periodically to conrm that no corrosion has occurred over time.

When properly installed and maintained, a millivolt control system should give many years of trouble-free service.

It is important to use wire of a gauge proper for the length of the wire:

40-100 1/2" 1/2" 3/4" 1/2"

ASSEMBLY

Installing the Insert Into the replace

The Clarity Fireplace Insert has an integrated draft hood. Therefore, a separate draft hood is not required.

Some replace openings may be large enough to

connect the draft hood to the venting after the unit

has been moved to its nal position. Some openings

will be too small and will require that the draft hood

rst be connected to the venting, and then guided

into position on the top of the insert as the unit is

pushed back into the replace.

Particularly in installations with tight clearances, the procedure will be most easily accomplished if the trim and wing panels are installed as the last step.

Follow these steps:

1. Connect the Clarity Insert's detachable draft hood to the end of the venting by sliding it inside the venting, then secure it with three sheet metal screws.

Install the top wing panel last using two 1/4-20 fasteners. The mounting holes are near the inside edge of the side wing panels. Before tightening, make sure the outer edges of the top panel align with the edge of the side panels. Brass edge trim is added as the last step of installing the wing panels.

7. Mount the side trim panel, each is held in place

by two magnets. Install the left side trim panel rst

by placing the bottom close to where it goes, then align the top and move it close to the insert body until it is held snugly by the two magnets.

The right side trim panel installs in the same fashion as the left, but the wiring (Two Amp Mate-NLok connectors) that serves the On-Off switch at the top of the panel and the blower speed control switch

on the bottom must be connected rst.

Move the right panel close enough to make the connection. Align the three wire male connector with the latch to the bottom. Push into the three wire female connector on the stove until it clicks. Do the same with the two wire connector with the latch turned to the top. Move panel into place while routing the switch wires into the opening of the wing bracket. Secure the panel.

8. Install the top wing cover, which is also held in

place by the magnets.

9. Install the gold wing trim by sliding the side pieces down from the top over each clip, one at a time.

2. Line up the two draft hood guides with the fourth heat exchanger tube from each side, as shown above.

3. With assistance, push the insert back into the

replace, while at the same time guiding the draft

hood into position. Continue until both guides are far enough forward that the retainer clamps and nuts can be installed on the threaded guide bolts.

4. Tighten the nuts to secure the draft hood.

5. Adjust the rear levelling bolts until the unit is level.

6. Install the wing panels; they attach to brackets on each side of the Clarity. Install the side wing pan-

els rst, using two 1/4-20 fasteners for each panel.

Their mounting locations are near the top and bottom of the panel.

Page 11

ASSEMBLY

Air Shutter Adjustment

The nal step of the installation is to check the

ame pattern, which should resemble the pattern il-

lustrated in the drawing in the next column.

The ames should be relatively well-dened and

stable. They should be bright yellow with a blue base where attached to the burner ports, and should not look orange or sooty.

Start the re according to the directions on page

12, and allow the heater to burn for approximately

15 minutes. The ames will increase in length and

become more yellow in color as the unit heats up.

Flame Adjustment Levers

Swing-out Label with Lighting Instructions

Pilot ames will resemble those shown above

Monitoring the Gas Flame

Periodically, the ames of the Clarity Fireplace

Insert should be checked while it is in operation.

The ames should be well-dened and stable. They

should be bright yellow with a blue base where at-

tached to the burner ports. The ames should not

look orange or sooty. Portions of the logs will glow

red when the ames are properly adjusted.

If you nd the ames to be other than that de-

scribed here, do not operate the heater. Consult a

qualied service person or your Harman dealer for

advice.

Three adjustment levers, one for each burner, are used to adjust the ames for each particular installation. They are accessible when the front control access drawer is opened. The levers may become hot to the touch after prolonged operation. Use a glove

to avoid contact if hot. For best results, when netuning the ame picture, initially leave the middle

lever unchanged from its factory setting. Move the other two levers as needed to increase or decrease

the brightness and length of the ame: moving left will increase the ame; moving right will decrease the ame.

Page 13

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance

A qualied service person recommended by your

Harman dealer should conduct an annual inspection and maintenance of your Clarity, its venting, and the

installation to keep it running safely and efciently.

These procedures should be performed only by a

qualied service person. The gas supply should be

turned off whenever a maintenance procedure is performed.

Any access panels that are removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the Clarity 828I Vented Gas Fireplace Insert.

Inspecting the Venting

An inspection of the venting system should be made during the annual service appointment to con-

rm that there is no blockage and that the system is in good repair. Directions for conducting a ue spill-

age test may be found on page 8. The vent manufac-

turer's instructions may provide specic suggestions

or details on vent inspection. Any sections that are taken apart for the inspection must be reassembled and sealed as required.

Replacing the Gasket

The Clarity has 5/8" diameter berglass gasket

around the glass door. Should it ever need replacement, use only the proper replacement gasket that is available from your Harman dealer. To replace the gasket, follow this procedure.

1. Remove the front according to directions above.

2. Remove the existing gasket and clean its channel

with a scraper or wire brush.

3. Lay a thin bead of high temperature silicone the

entire length of the channel.

4. Place the gasket in the channel with sufcient

pressure that it stays in place.

5. Trim the excess from the end of the gasket so that it butts snugly against the other end without leaving a gap. Seal the end joint with high temperature silicone.

6. Close the door and apply rm pressure to seat

the gasket evenly.

Cleaning the Glass

The glass may be cleaned with ordinary household

glass cleaner and a soft cloth or paper towel.

Removing the Glass door and Trim Panels

To gain access to the latches that secure the door,

rst remove the two side trim panels. Each is held in

place by a magnet at the bottom and a magnet at the top.

Remove the left side trim panel rst by pulling the

top slightly away from the unit, and then litng.

The right side trim panel is removed in the same fashion as the left, but is tethered to the Insert by the wiring that serves the On-Off switch at the top and the blower speed control switch on the bottom.

Disengage the right side panel, then pull gently on it to create enough space so that you can reach the latch that holds the door. If more space is needed to gain access to the latches, reach inside and disconnect the wiring (Two Amp Mate-N-Lok connectors). The trim panel will then come away from the unit.

WARNING: Never clean the glass when it is

hot. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the glass.

CAUTION: If the door is opened or removed for servicing, it must be replaced and closed securely prior to operating the appliance. The glass must also be xed securely in the door when operating the appliance.

Page 14

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Log Set and Firebox

During the annual inspection and maintenance appointment, the service person should clean dust, lint, and any light accumulation from the logs and

the rebox area. An extra-soft brush should be used

on the logs as they are extremely fragile; a vacuum

cleaner may be used on the rebox. If at any time the

logs cannot be removed or installed without forcing, the cause must be found. The logs must never be forced. Follow this sequence:

1. Remove the side trim panels according to the

directions on page 13.

2. Remove the glass door according to the direc-

tions on page 13.

3. Remove, clean, and re-install the log set, observing the directions on log handling and placement found on page 6.

Convection Blower Service Access

The blower is located behind a panel that can be

accessed by rst removing the fuel module. See page

22. Remove the two fasteners securing the panel and pull the panel forward. The blower will come out with the panel. Disconnect the blower electrical connector to completely remove the blower from the unit.

Step 1: Remove pilot hood with a 7/16" wrench.

Inside, you will nd and discard the Propane orice. Install the new Natural Gas orice from the kit.

Tighten the pilot hood and assure proper alignment of the directional openings.

Step 2: Using a 1/2 in. deep-well socket, remove

the three main burner orices. Install the new orices accordingly; Front = #47, Middle = #56, Rear = #44. Apply a thread sealer such as teon tape, to the orices prior to installing. (See Appendix C)

Step 3: Using a small at-blade screwdriver, re-

move the three screw that hold the LP knob module in place. Remove the module and replace it with the Natural Gas module from the kit. See kit instructions.

Step 4: Afx the conversion label to the valve so

that any future service tech etc... can plainly see that the valve was converted.

Step 5: Mark the appropriate fuel box on the unit label, pictured at left, using a permanent marker.

Appendix B: De-rating for High Altitude

For U.S. installations, the Clarity Fireplace Insert is approved for elevations up to 2000 feet using the factory-installed burner injectors. At elevations above 2000 feet, U.S. codes require a decrease in the input rating by changing the burner injectors to a smaller size. The chart below lists by part numbers the appropriate injectors for both LP and natural gas at various altitudes.

For Canadian installations, the Clarity Fireplace Insert is approved for elevations up to 1370 meters (4500 feet).

For high altitude installations above 1370 meters (4500 feet), consult the local gas distributor or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods.

NOTE: The difference in altitude derating requirements for the U.S. and Canada is simply a result of differences in testing standards between the two countries.

If the installer must convert the unit to adjust for varying altitudes, an information sticker like the one

below must be lled out and afxed to the appliance

at the time of conversion.
