Getting Started

Introducing the Heat-N-Glo Gas Appliances

Heat-N-Glo direct vent gas appliances 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 appliance diagrams, including the dimensions,
are shown in this section.

The efficiency rating of the appliance is a product of thermal
efficiency ratings determined under continuous operating
conditions, and was determined independently from any
installed system.

Pre-install Preparation

This gas appliance 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 and trim doors 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-N-Glo Warranty will be voided by, and Heat-N-Glo
disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:

 Installation of any damaged gas appliance or vent sys-

tem component.
 Modification of the gas appliance 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 appliance is to be installed on carpeting or tile, or on
any combustible material other than wood flooring, the
appliance should be installed on a metal or wood panel that
extends the full width and depth of the appliance.

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 Appliance

Space and clearance requirements for locating the appli­ance within a room (see Figure 2).

Clearance Requirements

The top, back, and sides of the appliance are defined by stand­offs. The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall extending
past the face of the appliance is four inches (102 mm).

Step 9. Before Lighting the Appliance

Step 10. Lighting the Appliance

Before lighting the appliance, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the appliance.
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 appliance, double-check the unit for

possible gas leaks.

Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for

obstructions.

 Before lighting the appliance, double-check the unit for

possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter­minations or the front grilles.

Double-check for faulty components

 Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-

placed with an approved component. Tampering with the
appliance components is DANGEROUS and voids all war­ranties.

A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When
first lighting the appliance, it will take a few minutes for the
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is
complete, the appliance will light and will operate normally.

Youve reviewed all safety warnings, youve checked the
appliance for gas leaks, you know the vent system is
unobstructed, and youve checked for faulty components.
Now youre ready to light the appliance.

WARNING: PLEASE REFER TO THE USERS

!

MANUAL FOR ALL CAUTIONS, SAFETY, AND
WARNING INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE
LIGHTING AND OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE.

After the Installation

LEAVE THIS INSTALLATION MANUAL WITH

!

THE APPLIANCE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

Subsequent lightings of the appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance
for an additional 8 hours. This will help to cure the chemicals
used in the paint and logs.

Maintaining and Servicing Your Appliance

4

Appliance 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
appliance maintenance task.

IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE GAS BEFORE SERVICING
YOUR APPLIANCE.

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, logs and

burner areas surrounding the logs.

Checking Flame Patterns, Flame Height
Frequency: Periodically.

By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Make a visual check of your appliances flame

patterns. Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or
floating. See Figure 28. The thermopile/thermocouple tips
should be covered with flame (see Figure 21).

Figure 28.
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.

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.
