• Smoke detectors may activate.

K. Frequently Asked Questions

ISSUE SOLUTIONS

Condensation on the glass

Blue ﬂ ames

Odor from ﬁ replace

Film on the glass

Metallic noise

This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the ﬁ replace warms, this condensation will disappear.

This is a result of normal operation and the ﬂ ames will begin to yellow as the ﬁ replace is al- lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

When ﬁ rst operated, this ﬁ replace may release an odor for the ﬁ rst several hours. This is caused by the curing of materials from manufacturing. Odor may also be released from ﬁ nishing materials and adhesives used near the ﬁ replace. These circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation environment.

This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance glass cleaner may be necessary. See your dealer.

Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the ﬁ replace.

B. Design and Installation Considerations

Heatilator B-type vent gas appliances are designed to operate with all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of the building, and combustion air pulled from the room.

Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, ﬁ re ofﬁ cials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions, installation inspection and permits.

Before installing, determine the following:

• Where the appliance is to be installed.

• The vent system conﬁ guration to be used.

• Gas supply piping.

• Electrical wiring requirements.

• Framing and ﬁ nishing details.

• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan, wall switch, or remote control—are desired.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualiﬁ ed service technician, service agency or your dealer.

D. Inspect Appliance and Components

The following B-vent components are needed for installation.

• Fireplace Box

• Pipe Components

• Firestops

• Attic Insulation Shield

• Elbows

• Strapping

• Roof Flashing or Chase Top

• Termination Cap

• Storm Collar

• Carefully remove the appliance and components from the packaging.

• The vent system components and decorative doors and fronts may be shipped in separate packages.

• If packaged separately, the log set and appliance grate must be installed.

• Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment, particularly the condition of the glass.

• Read all of the instructions before starting the installation. Follow these instructions carefully during the installation to ensure maximum safety and beneﬁ t.

C. Tools and Supplies Needed

Before beginning the installation be sure that the following tools and building supplies are available.

Tape measure Framing material Pliers High temperature caulking

material Hammer Phillips screwdriver Gloves Framing square Voltmeter Electric drill and bits (1/4 in.) Plumb line Safety glasses Level Reciprocating saw Manometer Flat blade screwdriver Noncorrosive leak check solution 1/2 - 3/4 in. length, #6 or #8 Self-drilling screws

WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! Damaged parts could impair safe operation. DO NOT install damaged, incomplete or substitute components. Keep appliance dry.

Hearth & Home Technologies disclaims any responsibility for, and the warranty will be voided by, the following actions:

• Installation and use of any damaged appliance or vent system component.

• Modiﬁ cation of the appliance or vent system.

• Installation other than as instructed by Hearth & Home Technologies.

E. Negative Pressure

WARNING! Asphyxiation Risk! Negative pressure can

cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot. Fireplace needs to draft properly for safety.

Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent ﬁ replaces successfully. Considerations for successful draft include:

• Preventing negative pressure

• Location of ﬁ replace and chimney Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air

available for the ﬁ replace to operate properly. Causes for this imbalance include:

• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)

• Range hoods

• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters and other combustion appliances

• Clothes dryers

• Location of return-air to furnace or air conditioning

• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system

• Upper level air leaks (recessed lighting, attic hatch opening, duct leaks)

To minimize the effects of negative air pressure, the following must be considered:

• Install the fresh air kit. Install the intake on the side of the house towards prevailing winds during the heating season.

• Ensure adequate outdoor air is supplied for combustion appliances and exhaust equipment.

• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not located in the immediate vicinity of the ﬁ replace.

• Avoid installing the ﬁ replace near doors, walkways or small isolated spaces.

• Recessed lighting should be of “sealed can” design; attic hatches weather stripped or sealed; and attic mounted ductwork and air handler joints and seams taped or sealed.

• Basement installations should be avoided due to stack effect. Stack effect creates negative pressure in lower levels. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends the use of direct vent ﬁ replaces in basements.

Location of the ﬁ replace and chimney will affect perfor- mance. As shown in Figure 4.2, the chimney should:

• Be installed through the warm space enclosed by the building envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially during lighting and die-down of the ﬁ re.

• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the effects of wind turbulence.

• Be located away from trees, adjacent structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.

Offsets can restrict draft so their use should be minimized. Consider the ﬁ replace location relative to ﬂ oor and ceiling and attic joists.

B. Construct the Appliance Chase

A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas appliance and/or its vent system. In cooler climates the vent should enclosed inside the chase.

NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling ﬁ restops and wall shield ﬁ restops and construction of the chase may vary with the

type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Therefore, you MUST check local building codes to determine the requirements to these steps.

Chases should be constructed in the manner of all outside walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting problems. The chase should not break the outside building envelope in any manner.

39-3/4 in.

(1010 mm)

19-1/4 in. 486 mm

Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever ﬂ oor of the chase should be insulated. Vapor and air inﬁ ltration barriers should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold air inﬁ ltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be sheetrocked and taped for maximum air tightness. To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling ﬁ re- stops should be caulked with high temperature caulk to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with high temp caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement slab, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room.

Troubleshooting

With proper installation, operation, and maintenance your gas appliance will provide years of trouble-free service. If you do experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist a qualiﬁ ed service technician in the diagnosis of a problem and the corrective action to be taken. This troubleshooting guide can only be used by a qualiﬁ ed service technician. Con- tact your dealer to arrange a service call by a qualiﬁ ed service technician.

A. Standing Pilot Ignition System

Symptom Possible Causes Corrective Action

1. After repeated triggering of the red or black piezo ignitor button, the spark ignitor will not light the pilot. Check for spark.

A. No gas or low gas pressure. Check the remote shut-off valves from the appliance. Usually, there

is a valve near the gas main. There can be more than one valve between the appliance and the main.

B. No LP in tank. Check the LP (propane) tank. You may be out of fuel. C. Ignitor. Check the spark at the electrode and pilot. If no spark and electrode

wire is properly connected, replace the ignitor. Verify that there is no short in electrode wire.

D. Pilot or misaligned electrode

(spark at electrode).

Using match, light the pilot. If the pilot lights, turn off the pilot and trigger the piezo ignitor button again. If the pilot lights, an improper gas/air mixture caused the bad lighting and a longer purge period is recommended. If the pilot will not light, ensure the gap at the electrode and pilot is one-eighth inch to have a strong spark. If the gap is OK, replace the pilot.

2. The pilot will not stay lit after carefully following the lighting instructions.

3. The pilot is burning, there is no burner ﬂ ame, the valve knob is in the ON position, and the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position.

A. Thermocouple. Check that the pilot ﬂ ame impinges on the thermocouple. Adjust the

pilot for proper ﬂ ame impingement. Ensure that the thermocouple connection at the gas valve is fully

inserted and tight (hand tighten plus 1/4 turn).

Verify proper voltage output from the thermocouple to the valve. Place one millivolt meter lead wire on the thermocouple copper lead. Place the second lead wire on the solder button on the back of the valve (blue wire). Start the pilot and hold the valve knob in. The millivolt reading should read 8-16 millivolts. If millivolt reading is less than 8 millivolts, replace thermocouple.

B. Improper gas inlet pressure. Natural gas should be 5-7 in. w.c. LP should be 11-14 in. w.c. Verify

pressure with manometer.

C. Valve. If the thermocouple is producing 8-16 millivolts, replace control valve.

A. On/off switch or wires

defective.

B. Thermopile may not be

generating sufﬁ cient millivoltage.

Check the ON/OFF switch and wires for proper connections. Place the jumper wires across the terminals at the ON/OFF switch. If the burner comes on, replace the ON/OFF switch. If the switch is OK, place the jumper wires across the ON/OFF switch wires at the gas valve. If the burner comes on, the wires are faulty or connections are bad.

Check that the pilot ﬂ ame impinges thermopile properly. Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at the gas valve

terminals are tight and that the thermopile is fully inserted into the pilot bracket.

Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take the reading at TH-TP&TP terminals of the gas valve. The meter should read 350 millivolts minimum, while holding the valve knob depressed in the pilot position, with the pilot lit, and the ON/OFF switch in the OFF position. Replace the thermopile if the reading is below the speciﬁ ed minimum.

With the pilot in the ON position, disconnect the thermopile leads from the valve. Take a reading at the thermopile leads. The reading should be 350 millivolts minimum. Replace the thermopile if the reading is below the minimum.

A. Standing Pilot Ignition System (continued)

3. (continued) C. Valve. Turn the valve knob to the ON position. Place the ON/OFF switch in

the ON position. Check the millivolt meter a the thermopile terminals. The millivolt meter should read greater than 125mV. If the reading is acceptable, and if the burner does not come on, replace the gas valve.

D. Plugged burner oriﬁ ce. Check the burner oriﬁ ce for stoppage. Remove stoppage.

E. Wall switch or wires. Check the wall switch and wires for proper connections. Place the

jumper wires across the terminals at the wall switch. If the burner comes on, replace the wall switch. If the wall switch is OK, place the jumper wires across the wall switch wires at the gas valve. If the burner comes on, the wires are faulty or connections are bad.

4. Frequent pilot outage problem.

5. The pilot and main burner extinguish while in operation.

6. Glass soots. A. Flame impingement. Adjust the log set so that the ﬂ ame does not excessively impinge on

7. Flame burns blue and lifts off burner.

A. Pilot ﬂ ame may be too high or

too low, or blowing out (high pressure), causing pilot safety

to drop out. A. No LP in tank. Check the LP (propane) tank. Reﬁ ll the fuel tank. B. Improper gas inlet pressure. Verify with manometer. NG should read 5-14 inches w.c. LP should
