Approvals and Codes
Appliance Certification
The Heat-N-Glo fireplace model discussed in this Installers Guide has been tested to certification standards and listed
by the applicable laboratories.
Certification
MODEL: BAY-38HV LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories TYPE: Direct Vent Gas Fireplace STANDARD: ANSI Z21.50CGA2.22UL307B
Installation Codes
The fireplace installation must conform to local codes. Before installing the fireplace, consult the local building code agency to ensure that you are in compliance with all applicable codes, including permits and inspections.
In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (in the United States) or the CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Codes (in Canada). The appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (in the United States), or to the CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).
High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in the U.S.A. and from 0 to 4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2,000 feet (in the United States), it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent (4%) for each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating value of the gas has been reduced, in which case this general rule will not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation between 2,000 and 4,500 feet (in Canada), the input rating must be reduced by ten percent (10%).
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4,500 feet (in Canada), check with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determining the proper orifice for your location.
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting room in the U.S.A. and Canada.

Getting Started
Introducing the Heat-N-Glo Gas Fireplaces
Heat-N-Glo direct vent 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 vent system components are shipped in separate packages. The gas logs are stretch wrapped to the log grate. This stretch wrap must be removed before firing.
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-N-Glo Warranty will be voided by, and Heat-N-Glo disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:
Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system
component.  Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.  Installation other than as instructed by Heat-N-Glo.  Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.  Installation and/or use of any component part not manu-
factured and approved by Heat-N-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 vent 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 or tile, or on any combustible material other than wood flooring, the fireplace should be installed on a metal or wood panel that extends the full width and depth of the fireplace.

Constructing the Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas fireplace and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that run on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to be, installed inside a chase.
CAUTION: TREATMENT OF FIRESTOP SPACERS 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, YOUR LOCAL BUILD­ING CODES MUST BE CHECKED TO DETERMINE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THESE STEPS.
Factory-built fireplace 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.
This means that the walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever floor of the chase should be insulated. Vapor and air infiltra­tion barriers should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for the rest of the home. Additionally, Heat-N-Glo rec­ommends that the inside surfaces be sheetrocked and taped for maximum air tightness.
To further prevent drafts, the firestops should be caulked to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed with insulation. If the unit is being in­stalled on a cement slab, we recommend that a layer of plywood be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room. Be sure to include spark arrestors for woodburning units if they are required.
THE CHASE SHOULD BE CONSTRUCTED SO THAT ALL CLEARANCES TO THE FIREPLACE ARE MAINTAINED AS SPECIFIED WITHIN THIS INSTALLERS GUIDE.
Step 1. Locating the Fireplace
Space and clearance requirements for locating a fireplace within a room (see Figure 2).
Clearance Requirements
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 one inch (25 mm).
The metal ends of the fireplace may NOT be recessed into combustible.

Step 3. Installing the Vent System
A. Vent System Approvals
These models are approved to use SL-series direct vent pipe components and terminations (see Figures 5 and 6). Approved vent 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 vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYS- TEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.
Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent 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 venting configuration used.
Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in­clude one, two, or three 90° elbow assemblies. The rela­tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura­tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The rise to run relationships are shown in the venting 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 vent system must be followed if 45° elbows are used.
NOTE: If the vertical vent component is 10 feet or more,
you may want to install the vertical baffle to improve flame appearance. Vertical baffle kit (BAF-VERT) is located in the manual bag. Center the vertical baffle on the four inch flue and with self tapping screws secure the baffle to the inside of the firebox (see Figure 7).

For Vertical Terminations - To locate the vent and install the vent sections:
 Locate and mark the vent 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 1-inch (25.4mm) clear­ance from the vertical vent pipe to combustible materials.
 Mark the roof hole accordingly.
To seal the roof hole, and to divert rain and snow from the vent system:
 Attach a flashing to the roof using nails, and use a non-
hardening 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 vent pipe
and rotate the pipe clockwise 1/4 turn.
 Cover the opening of the installed vent pipes.
 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 vent sections up through
the roof hole (for inside vent installations) or up past the roof line until you reach the appropriate distance above the roof (for outside terminations).

Step 6. The Gas Supply Line
S
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 codes to properly size the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch (13 mm) hook-up at the unit.
This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch (13 mm) gas supply line.To install the gas supply line:
 A listed (and State of Massachusetts approved) 1/2 inch
(13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13mm) inlet of the control valve. NOTE: If substituting for these components, please consult local codes for compliance.
 Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of
the fireplace.
 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, use a soap
solution to carefully check all gas connections for leaks.
Step 7. Gas Pressure Requirements
Pressure requirements for Heat-N-Glo gas fireplaces are shown in the table below.
Pressure Natural Gas Propane
Minimum 5.0 inches 11.0 inches Inlet Pressure w.c. w.c.
Maximum Inlet 14.0 inches 14.0 inches Gas Pressure w.c. w.c.
Manifold 3.5 inches 10.0 inches Pressure w.c. w.c.
A one-eighth (1/8) inch (3 mm) N.P.T. plugged tapping is provided on the inlet and outlet side of the gas control for a test gauge connection to measure the manifold pressure.
The fireplace and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of one-half (1/2) psig (3.5 kPa).
The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than one-half (1/2) psig (3.5 kPa).

 Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-
placed with an approved component. Tampering 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, unless the gas valve 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. Turn 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 chemicals used in the paint and logs.

Fireplace Maintenance
Although the frequency of your fireplace 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.
IMPORTANT: 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 dime-size and shape pieces of Golden Ember (DE-93) and Glowing Ember (050-
721). New ember material should be placed alternately on top of the burner - a layer of Golden Ember, a layer of Glowing Ember, and so on. Save the remaining ember material and repeat this procedure at your next servicing. For more information, see Placing Ember Material.
Cleaning Burner and Controls Frequency: Once annually. By: Qualified service technician. Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment, fireplace
logs and burner areas surrounding the logs.
MAKE SURE THE FLAMES ARE STEADYNOT LIFTING OR FLOATING.
Figure 36. Burner Flame Patterns
Checking Vent System Frequency: Before initial use and at least annually
thereafter, more frequently if possible.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner. Task: Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to
ensure that no debris is interfering with the flow of air. Inspect entire vent system for proper function.
Checking Flame Patterns, Flame Height Frequency: Periodically.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner. Task: Make a visual check of your fireplaces flame patterns.
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating. See Figure 36. The flame sensor (DSI) or thermopile/ thermocouple (standing pilot) tips should be covered with flame (see Figure 27).
Cleaning Glass Door Frequency: After the first 3 to 4 hours of use. As neces-
sary after initial cleaning.
By: Home owner. Task: Remove and clean glass after the first 3 to 4 hours of
use. After the initial cleaning, clean as necessary, particu­larly after adding new ember (flame colorant) 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.
