MODELS: Dakota 42-B, Dakota 42H-B
LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL)
TYPE: Vented Gas Appliance
STANDARD: ANSI Z21.50-2003—CSA2.22-M2003
This product is listed to ANSI standards for “Vented Gas Fireplaces” and applicable sections of “Gas Burning Heating Appliances for Manufactured Homes and Recreational Vehicles”, and “Gas Fired Appliances for Use at High Altitudes”.
B. Glass Specifications
Hearth & Home Technologies appliances manufactured with tempered glass may be installed in hazardous locations such as bathtub enclosures as defined by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The tempered glass has been tested and certified to the requirements of ANSI Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1202 (Safety Glazing Certification Council SGCC# 1595 and 1597. Architectural Testing, Inc. Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-31917.01).
This statement is in compliance with CPSC 16 CFR Section 1201.5 “Certification and labeling requirements” which refers to 15 U.S. Code (USC) 2063 stating “…Such certificate shall accompany the product or shall otherwise be furnished to any distributor or retailer to whom the product is delivered.”
Some local building codes require the use of tempered glass with permanent marking in such locations. Glass meeting this requirement is available from the factory. Please contact your dealer or distributor to order.
Note: This installation must conform with local codes. In the absence of local codes you must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition in the U.S.A. and the CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes in Canada.

D. High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved without requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in the U.S.A. and Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 ft, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 ft above a 2000 ft elevation in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations between 2000 and 4500 ft in Canada. If the heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 ft (in Canada), check with local authorities.
WARNING
Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

Heat & Glo LifeStyle Collection • Dakota 42-B/Dakota 42H-B • 4036-909 • Rev J 11/08 |
2 Getting Started
A. Design and Installation Considerations
These appliances must be installed outdoors.
The Dakota 42-B Series Outdoor Gas Fireplace is designed for outdoor use. It may also be installed in screened porches and lanais that meet these minimum requirements:
•Minimum porch area - 96 square feet
•Minimum ceiling height - 84 in.
A minimum of two walls can be screened but must be open to outside ventilation.
•Minimum screen area - 64 square feet
•Minimum screen top height - 80 in.
Refer to Section 3.B. for clearances.
CAUTION
Check building codes prior to installation.
•Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations.
•Consult insurance carrier, local building, fire officials or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.
When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to determine the following information before installing:
•Where the appliance is to be installed.
•Gas supply piping.
•Electrical wiring.
•Framing and finishing details.
Moisture Resistance:
This outdoor fireplace will shed moderate amounts of water, but is not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor may enter the chase under certain conditions.
The fireplace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture penetration must be considered for construction that places the fireplace in structure walls or on moisture sensitive surfaces.
When installed on exterior walls: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the fireplace chase be constructed outside the structure’s weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to that required for attached decks. Chase platforms, including hearths should slope away from the structure at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. The fireplace can be shimmed level.
When installed on surfaces where water may collect or cause damage: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that a drainage pan be placed under the unit. This can be constructed of metal, adhesive polymer membrane (such as ice and water shield) or other suitable materials. A means of drainage out of the pan such as tubes or weep holes should be provided. A slope of 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot towards the drain port is suggested. The fireplace can be shimmed level.
Hearths should slope away from the front of the fireplace and chase at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. Spark strips must be on top of any combustible hearth materials used for moisture management.

6 Gas Information
A. Fuel Conversion |
C. Gas Connection |
Before making gas connections ensure appliance being installed is compatible with the available gas type.
Any natural or propane gas conversions necessary to meet the appliance and locality needs must be made by a qualified technician using Hearth & Home Technologies specified and approved parts.
Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance with local building codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI 223.1. Installation should be done by a qualified installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.)
B. Gas Pressure
Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made following NFPA51.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
High pressure will damage valve.
•Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures above 1/2 psig.
•Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
Note: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved) 1/2 in. (13 mm) T-handle manual shut-off valve and flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 in. (13 mm) control valve inlet.
•If substituting for these components, please consult local codes for compliance.
Optional: A 5 ft flexible gas line is available to those regions which do not require black pipe to be used. See Service Parts List (Section 13).
Note: Gas line MUST be run from right side of appliance.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Verify inlet pressures.
•High pressure may cause overfire condition.
•Low pressure may cause explosion.
Install regulator upstream of valve if line pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.

These pressures can be verified through the internal valve access panels as shown in Section E. Valve Access.
WARNING
Gas Leak Risk
•Support control when attaching pipe to prevent bending gas line.
Note: The gap between supply piping and gas access hole may be plugged with non-combustible unfaced insulation to prevent cold air infiltration.
•Ensure that gas line does not come in contact with outer wrap of appliance. Follow local codes.
•Incoming gas line should be piped into the valve compartment and connected to the 1/2 in. connection on the manual shutoff valve.
