Installation of Carbon Monoxide Detectors
At the time of installation of the side wall horizontal vented gas fueled equipment, the installing plumber or gas fitter shall observe that a hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up is installed on the floor level where the gas equipment is to be installed. In addition, the installing plumber or gas fitter shall observe that a battery operated or hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm is installed on each additional level of the dwelling, building or structure served by the side wall horizontal vented gas fueled equipment. It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure the services of qualified licensed professionals for the installation of hard wired carbon monoxide detectors.
In the event that the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment is installed in a crawl space or an attic, the hard wired carbon monoxide detector with alarm and battery back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor level.
In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can not be met at the time of completion of installation, the owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with the above requirements; provided, however, that during said thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon monoxide detector with an alarm shall be installed.

Signage
A metal or plastic identification plate shall be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally vented gas fueled heating appliance or equipment. The sign shall read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2) in. in size, “GAS
VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS”.
Inspection
The state or local gas inspector of the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment shall not approve the installation unless, upon inspection, the inspector observes carbon monoxide detectors and signage installed in accordance with the provisions of 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1 through 4.
Exemptions
The following equipment is exempt from 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1 through 4:

J.Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUE |
SOLUTIONS |
|
|
|
|
Condensation on the glass |
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this |
|
condensation will disappear. |
||
|
||
Blue flames |
This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the appliance is al- |
|
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes. |
||
|
||
|
When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused |
|
Odor from appliance |
by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Odor may |
|
|
also be released from finishing materials and adhesives used around the appliance. |
|
|
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned |
|
Film on the glass |
within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing |
|
|
process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fireplace 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 |
|
Metallic noise |
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or |
|
|
longevity of the appliance. |
|
Is it normal to see the pilot flame burn |
In an intermittent pilot ignition system (IPI), the pilot flame should turn off when appliance is |
|
turned off. Some optional control systems available with IPI models may allow pilot flame to |
||
continually? |
||
remain lit. |

B. Design and Installation Considerations
Heat & 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. No additional outside air source is required.
Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fire officials 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 configuration to be used.
•Gas supply piping requirements.
•Electrical wiring requirements.
•Framing and finishing details.
•Whether optional accessories—devices such as a wall switch—are desired.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualified service technician, service agency or your dealer.
C. Tools and Supplies Needed
Before beginning the installation be sure that the following tools and building supplies are available.

D. Inspect Appliance and Components
•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 benefit.
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! Damaged parts could impair safe operation. DO NOT install damaged, incomplete or substitute components. Keep appliance dry.

5 Framing and Clearances
A. Selecting Appliance Location
When selecting a location for the appliance it is important to consider the required clearances to walls (see Figure 5.1).
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Burns! Provide adequate clearance around air openings and for service access.
Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
NOTICE: Illustrations reflect typical installations and are FOR DESIGN PURPOSES ONLY. Illustrations/diagrams are not drawn to scale. Actual installation may vary due to individual design preference.

B. Constructing 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 be enclosed inside the chase.
NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling firestops and wall shield firestops 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.
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, in regions where cold air infiltration 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 firestops should be caulked with high temperature caulk to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with high temperature caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement surface, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room.
C. Clearances
NOTICE: Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces extending full width and depth. DO NOT install directly on carpeting, vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than wood.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to appliance and vent pipe:
•Insulation and other materials must be secured to prevent accidental contact.
•The chase must be properly blocked to prevent blown insulation or other combustibles from entering and making contact with fireplace or chimney.
•Failure to maintain airspace may cause overheating and a fire.
