Installation Regulations
Before installation check that local distribution conditions,
nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of the appliance
are compatible.
This appliance must be installed with the rules in force, and
used only in a sufficiently ventilated space. Consult
instructions before installation and use of this appliance.
Introducing the Heat & Glo Gas Fireplaces
Heat & Glo direct flue gas fireplaces are designed to operate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the
building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside.
The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless
noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control
systems. Gas fireplace diagrams, including the dimensions,
are shown in this section.
Pre-install Preparation
This gas fireplace and its components are tested and safe
when installed in accordance with this Installers Guide.
Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,
particularly the condition of the glass. Do not install any
unit with damaged, incomplete, or substitute parts.
The flue system components are shipped in separate packages. The gas logs are packaged separately and must be
field installed.
Read all of the instructions before starting the installation. Follow these instructions carefully during the
installation to ensure maximum safety and benefit.
Failure to follow these instructions will void the owner’s warranty and may present a fire hazard.
The Heat & Glo Warranty will be voided by , and Heat & Glo
disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:
•Installation of any damaged fireplace or flue system component.
•Modification of the fireplace or direct flue system.
•Installation other than as instructed by Heat & Glo.
•Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door .
•Installation and/or use of any component part not manufactured and approved by Heat & Glo, not withstanding
any independent testing laboratory or other party approval
of such component part or accessory .
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE
HAZARD.
When planning a fireplace installation, it’s necessary
to determine:
• Where the unit is to be installed.
• The flue system configuration to be used.
• Gas supply piping.
• Electrical wiring.
• Framing and finishing details.
• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,
wall switch, or remote control—are desired.
If the fireplace is to be installed on carpeting, tile or
any combustible material other than wood flooring, it
should be installed on a metal or wood panel that
extends the full width and depth of the fireplace.
* The clearance to the ceiling is measured from the top of
the unit, excluding the standoffs (see Figures 37 & 38).
The distance from the unit to combustible construction is to
be measured from the unit outer wrap surface to the combustible construction, NOT from the screw heads that secure the unit together.
The top, back, and sides of the fireplace are defined by
stand-offs. The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall
extending past the face of the fireplace is 25 mm (1 in.). The
metal ends of the fireplace may NOT be recessed into
combustible construction.
For minimum clearances, see the direct flue termination
clearance diagrams on pages 30 and 31 in this manual.
Step 2. Framing the Fireplace
Fireplace framing can be built before or after the fireplace is
set in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall coverings and fireplace facing material. The diagram below shows framing reference dimensions.
CAUTION: MEASURE FIREPLACE DIMENSIONS AND
VERIFY FRAMING METHODS AND WALL COVERING
DET AILS BEFORE FRAMING .
WARNING: FRAMING DIMENSIONS ASSUME
!
USE OF 1/2 INCH THICK WALL COVERING
MA TERIALS ON EXTERIOR OF FRAMING ONL Y AND
NO SHEETROCK ON INTERIOR OF FRAMING .

Shows center of 254mm x 305mm (10”x12”) flue framing holes for top and rear flueing.
The center of the hole is 25.4mm (one inch) above the center of the horizontal flue pipe.
D
E
Framing should be constructed
of 51mm x 102mm (2” x 4”)
lumber or heavier.
These models are approved to use DVP series direct flue
pipe components and terminations (see Figures 6 and 7).
Approved flue system components are labeled for identification. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved component of the fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside
an enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection
openings at each joint within the wall. There is no required
pitch for horizontal flue runs. NO OTHER FLUEING SYS-TEMS OR COMPONENTS MA Y BE USED.
Detailed installation instructions are included with each flue
termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this
Installers Guide.
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the
type of fuel burned and the flueing configuration used.
Identifying Flue Components
The flue systems installed on this gas fireplace may include one, two, or three 90°
elbow assemblies. The relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in flue configurations using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The
rise to run relationships are shown in the flueing drawings
and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.
NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one
90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the flue system must
be followed if 45° elbows are used.
This model has a 45
0
elbow built into it. It may be positioned to flue either horizontal or vertical. Depending on the
installation, decide which direction the elbow should be facing. Remove the 8 screws from the corner cover plate. Position the 450 elbow as desired and replace the corner cover plate with the 8 screws.

4. Install Firestops
For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both
sides of a combustible wall through which the flue passes.
NOTE: Model DVP-TRAP does not need an exterior
firestop on an exterior combustible wall. The firestop is
built into the cap.
T o install firestops for horizontal runs that p ass through either
interior or exterior walls:
• Cut a 10” x 12” (254mm X 305mm) hole through the wall.
NOTE: The center of the hole is one (1) inch (25.4mm)
above the center of the horizontal flue pipe.
• Position the firestops on both sides of the hole previously cut and secure the firestops with nails or screws.
• The heat shields of the firestops MUST BE placed towards the top of the hole.
For Vertical Terminations - To locate the flue and install
V
the flue sections:
• Locate and mark the flue centerpoint on the underside of
the roof, and drive a nail through the centerpoint.
• Make the outline of the roof hole around the centerpoint
nail.
• The size of the roof hole framing dimensions depend on the
pitch of the roof. There MUST BE a 25.4mm clearance
from the vertical flue pipe to combustible materials.
• Mark the roof hole accordingly .
• Cover the opening of the installed flue pipes.
T o seal the roof hole, and to divert rain and snow from the
flue system:
• Attach a flashing to the roof using nails, and use a nonhardening mastic around the edges of the flashing base
where it meets the roof.
• Attach a storm collar over the flashing joint to form a
water-tight seal. Place non-hardening mastic around the
joint, between the storm collar and the vertical pipe.
• Slide the termination cap over the end of the flue pipe and
snap into place.
• Cut and frame the roof hole.
• Use framing lumber the same size as the roof rafters
and install the frame securely . Flashing anchored to the
frame must withstand heavy winds.
• Continue to install concentric flue sections up through
the roof hole (for inside flue installations) or up past the
roof line until you reach the appropriate distance above
the roof (for outside terminations).

NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualified installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality.
NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas
supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
NOTE: Consult local building regulations to properly
size the gas supply line leading to the (Rp 1/2 in.)
hook-up at the unit.
• Insert insulation from the outside of the fireplace and
pack the insulation tightly to totally seal between the
pipe and the outer casing.
• At the gas line access hole the gap between the supply
piping and gas access hole can be plugged with noncombustible insulation to prevent cold air infiltration.
This threaded gas inlet connection is ISO 7-Rp 1/2 (BSP
Rp 1/2).
To install the gas supply line:
• Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of
the fireplace.
• The gas line may be run from either side of the fireplace
provided the hole in the outer wrap does not exceed 51mm
(2 in.) in diameter and it does not penetrate the actual
firebox.
• Open the fireplace lower grille, insert the gas supply line
through the gas line hole, and connect it to the shut-off
valve.
• When attaching the pipe, support the control so that the
lines are not bent or torn.
• After the gas line installation is complete, all connections must be tightened and checked for leaks with a
commercially-available, non-corrosive leak check solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following

•Remove the tension springs around the glass door.
•Remove the glass door from the unit.
•Remove the log set.
•Place dime size pieces of ember material about 1/2 inch
apart near port holes in burner top. Do NOT place embers over burner ports. Cover the top of the burner with a
single layer of ember material.
•Save the remaining ember materials for use during fireplace servicing. The bag of embers provided is sufficient
for 3 to 5 applications.
•Install the Lava Rock (supplied) to the firebox base pan
being careful not to cover the burner with the Lava Rock.
•Replace the logs, glass door, and a front trim door on
the unit.
Step 1 1. Before Lighting the Fireplace
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
• Read the Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
Double-check for gas leaks
•Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible gas leaks.
Double-check flue terminations and front grilles for
obstructions.
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the flue terminations or the front grilles.
Double-check for faulty components
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE replaced with an approved component. T ampering with the
fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all warranties.
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When
first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is
complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally .
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unlessthe gasvalve has been turned to the OFF position, in which
case the air would have to be purged.
NOTE: The fireplace should be run 3 to 4 hours on the
initial start-up. T urn it off and let it cool completely . Remove
and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the fireplace
for an additional 8 hours. This will help to cure the products
used in the paint and logs.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate
any odors associated with the fireplace’s initial burning.
Step 12. Lighting the Fireplace
You’ve reviewed all safety warnings, you’ve checked the
fireplace for gas leaks, you know the flue system is
unobstructed, and you’ve checked for faulty components.
Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.

Fireplace Maintenance
Although the frequency of your appliance servicing and maintenance will depend on use and the type of installation, you
should have a qualified service technician perform an appliance check-up at the beginning of each heating season.
See the table below for specific guidelines regarding each
fireplace maintenance task.
IMPORT ANT : TURN OFF THE GAS BEFORE SERVICING
YOUR FIREPLACE.
Replacing old ember material
Frequency: Once annually , during the checkup.
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Brush away loose ember material near the burner.
Replace old ember material with new 1 cm thin pieces.
New ember material should be placed on top of the burner;
near, but NOT on top of any burner ports. Save the
remaining ember material and repeat this procedure at your
next servicing. For more information, see Placing Ember
Material in the INSTALLERS GUIDE.
Cleaning Burner and Controls
Frequency: Once annually .
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment and burner
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Make a visual check of your stove’s flame patterns.
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating.
See Figure 35. The thermopile/thermocouple tips should
be covered with flame. See Figure 36.
ST ANDING PILOT
Figure 36. Pilot Flame Patterns
Checking Flue System
Frequency: Before initial use and at least annually
thereafter , more frequently if possible.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Inspect the external cap on a regular basis to ensure
that no debris is interfering with the flow of air. Inspect entire
flue system for proper function.
Cleaning Glass Door
Frequency: After the first 3 to 4 hours of use. As neces-
sary after initial cleaning.
By: Qualified Service T echnician
Task: Remove and clean glass af ter the first 3 to 4 hours of
use. Af ter the initial cleaning, clean as necessary , particularly after adding new ember material. Film deposits on the
inside of the glass door should be cleaned off using a household glass cleaner. NOTE: DO NOT handle or attempt to
clean the door when it is hot and DO NOT use abrasive cleaners.
With proper installation, operation, and maintenance the gas fireplace will provide years of trouble-free service. If you do experience a
problem, this trouble shooting guide will assist a qualified service person in the diagnosis of a problem and the corrective action to be
taken. This troubleshooting guide can only be used by a qualified service technician.

b. Defective valve.If the thermocouple is producing more than 15 millivolts , replace faulty valve.
a. ON/OFF switch or
wi re s defective.
b. Thermopile may
not be generating
suffi cie nt millivolta ge.
Using match, light the pilot. If the p ilot lights, turn off the pilot and trigger the red or
black piezo button again. If the pilot lights, an improper gas/air mixture caused the
bad li ghting and a longer purge period is recommended. If the pilot will not light,
ensure the the gap at the electrode and pilot is 0.3 cm to have a strong spark. If
the gap is OK, replace the pilot.
Check the remote shut-off valves from the fireplace. Usually, there is a valve near
the gas main. There can be more than one (1) valve between the fireplace and the
main.
Check that the pilot flame impinges on the thermocouple. Clean and/or adjust the
pilo t fo r maximum flame impingement.
Ensure that the thermocouple connection at the gas valve i s fully inserted an tight
(hand tighten plus 1/4 turn).
Disconnect the thermocouple from the valve, place one millivolt meter lead wire on
the tip of the thermcouple and the other meter lead wire on the thermocoup le
co pp er lea d. St art the pilot and hold the valve k nob in. If the millivolt r ea ding is less
than 15mV, replace the thermocouple.
Check the ON/OFF switch and wires for proper connections. Place the jumper
wires across the terminals at the switch. If the burner comes on, replace the
defective switch. If the switch is OK, place the jumper wires across the switch wires
at the gas valve. If the burner comes on, the wires are faulty or connec tions are
bad.
If the pilot flame is not close enough physically to the thermopi le, adjust the pi lot
flame.
Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at the gas valve terminals are
tight and that the thermopile is fully inserte d into the pi lot bracket.
Check the thermopile with a millvolt meter. Take the reading at TH-TP&TP
terminals of the gas vlave. The me ter should read 325 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 faulty thermopile if the reading is
below the specified minimum.
With the pilot in the ON positio n, disconnect the thermopile leads from the valve.
Take a reading at the thermopile leads. The reading should be 325 millivolts
minimum. Replace the thermopile if the reading is be low the minimum.
c. Defective valve.Turn the valve knob to the ON position. Place the ON/OFF switch in the ON
position. Chec k t he millivolt m ete r a the the rmo pile t erm ina ls. The millivolt m ete r
should read gre ater than 125mV. If the reading is ac ceptab le, and if the burner
does not come on, replace the gas valve.
