These models have flue starting collars on both the top
and the back of the unit. Depending upon the installation, decide which ONE set of starting collars will be
used to attach the flue system. The starting collar sealing
cap must remain on the starting collar NOT used.
These models use SL-D-series direct flue components
when using the TOP flue collars and DVP-series direct
flue components when using the REAR flue collars.
WARNING: YOU MUST NOT MIX DVP-SERIES
AND SL D-SERIES COMPONENTS IN ANY FLUE
SYSTEM CONFIGURA TION.
Approved flue system components are labeled for
identification. NO OTHER FLUEING SYSTEMS OR
COMPONENTS MAY BE USED. Detailed installation
instructions are included with each flue termination kit
and should be used in conjunction with this manual. Figure
5 below shows flue system components and terminations.
Identifying Flue Components
The flue systems installed on this gas fireplace may
include one, two, or three 90°
relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in flue
elbow assemblies. The
FLUE TERMINA TION APPROV ALS
configurations using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly
adhered to. The rise to run relationships are shown in
the flueing drawings and tables on the next few pages.
WARNING: THIS GAS APPLIANCE AND FLUE AS-
SEMBL Y MUST FLUE DIRECTL Y TO THE OUTSIDE
AND MUST NEVER BE A T T ACHED T O A CHIMNEY
SERVING A SEP ARA TE SOLID FUEL BURNING APPLIANCE. EACH GAS APPLIANCE MUST USE A

of the thermocouple should be engulfed in the pilot flame
(see Figure 34).
Burner flame patterns are shown in Figure 35.
Proper gas log positioning is shown in Section 1.8.
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as
desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other noncombustible materials can be used to cover up the gap
between the sheet rock and the fireplace.
Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When
overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that
the bottom grille can be opened and the trim door
removed.
1.7 INSTALLER TESTING
The space heater must be tested and be operating according to manufacturer's specifications prior to the installer leaving the site. Note: the tips of the flames
should never hit the top of the firebox after the unit has
warmed up. Please contact your dealer or a qualified
service person to replace injector or adjust valve.
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small
amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting the
pilot light, it will take a few minutes for the lines to
purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the Lighting Instructions.
Follow Section 3.5 TROUBLESHOOTING for adjusting
the appliance to operate properly .

If HEAT & GLO is reasonably satisfied that any part or portion of the fireplace covered by this Limited Warranty is
defective in material or workmanship under normal use and service as described in the Operating Instructions,
HEAT & GLO will take the following actions:
1. If the defect is reported during the first year from the date of installation (stainless steel burners and fiber logs
are covered for 3 years), HEAT & GLO will replace or repair the defective components at its sole expense. The
decision whether to replace a component shall be made at HEAT & GLO's sole discretion. This Limited Warranty
does not cover components broken during shipping, misuse or careless handling. HEAT & GLO shall be not
responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages or for any costs other than those incurred by
HEAT & GLO to repair or replace the defective component. If components (including venting) other than factory
