Approvals and
Codes

Appliance Certification

The Hearth & Home Technologies fireplace models
discussed in this Installers Guide have been tested to
certification standards and listed by the applicable
laboratories.

Certification

MODELS: Olympus, Titan
LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories
TYPE: Vented Gas Fireplace Heater
STANDARD: ANSI Z21.88•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 appliances are tested and approved with­out requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in
the U. S. A. and in Canada.

When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2,000
feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by
changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input
rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a
2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. or 10% for elevations
between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada. If the heating value
of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To
identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas
utility.

If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4,500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.

These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting
room in the U.S.A. and Canada.

Getting Started

Introducing the Hearth & Home Technologies
Gas Fireplaces

Hearth & Home Technologies 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 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 Hearth & Home Technologies Warranty will be voided
by, and Hearth & Home Technologies 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 Hearth & Home
Technologies.

• Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.

• Installation and/or use of any component part not manu­factured and approved by Hearth & Home Technologies,
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.

HEAT SHIELD

WALL FIRESTOP

A. Vent System Approvals

The Titan and Olympus models are approved to use DVP­series vent pipe components (Figures 6 and 7) and termi­nations. 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 VENT-
ING SYSTEMS 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.

Vent Components

VERTICAL
TERMINATION

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.

4. Install Firestops

For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both

sides of a combustible wall through which the vent passes.

NOTE: Model DVP-TRAP does not need an exterior
firestop on an exterior combustible wall.

To install firestops for horizontal runs that pass through
either interior or exterior walls:

• Cut a 10-inch by 12-inch (245mm x 305mm) hole through

the wall.

NOTE: The center of the hole is one (1) inch (25.4mm)
above the center of the horizontal vent 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.

• Continue the vent run through the firestops.

NOTE: There must be NO INSULATION or other
combustibles inside the framed firestop opening.

Figure 13. Heat Shield, Interior & Exterior Firestops

For Vertical Runs - One ceiling firestop is REQUIRED at

the hole in each ceiling through which the vent passes.
To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through ceilings:

• Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the verti­cal vent component.

• Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the vent.

• Drill a hole or drive a nail through this centerpoint.

• Check the floor above for any obstructions, such as wir­ing or plumbing runs.

• Reposition the fireplace and vent system, if necessary,
to accommodate the ceiling joists and/or obstructions.

• Cut a 10-inch x 10-inch (254mm x 254mm) hole through
the ceiling, using the centerpoint previously marked.

• Frame the hole with framing lumber the same size as the
ceiling joists.

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 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 termination cap over the end of the vent pipe and
secure with screws.

• 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).

WARNING: MAJOR U.S. BUILDING CODES

Step 6. The Gas Supply Line

OLYMPUS

TITAN

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.
(In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation
must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).

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 Commonwealth 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.

• 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 connec-

u

tions 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
testing.

WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME

!

TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS .

• At the gas line access hole, use insulation to re-pack
the space around the gas pipe.

• Insert insulation from the outside of the fireplace and
pack the insulation tightly to totally seal between the
pipe and the outer casing.

Step 7. Gas Pressure Requirements

Pressure requirements for these Hearth & Home Technol­ogies gas fireplaces are shown in the table below.

Pressure Natural Gas Propane

Minimum 5.0 in. w.c. (Olympus) 11.0 inches
Inlet Pressure 7.0 in. w.c. (Titan) 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.

Connections are provided on the front of the gas control
valve for both inlet and manifold pressures. To use these
the valve cover must be removed and the small slotted screw
inside the pressure tap loosened. Manifold pressure should
be checked with main burner turned on and rear log off.

This screw must be retightened carefully after pressure
gauge is removed to avoid a gas leak.

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).

Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace

BEFORE lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:

• Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.

• Review all cautions, and Safety and Warnings section

at the beginning of this Installers Guide.

• Double-check the unit for possible gas leaks.

• Double-check the unit for possible obstructions that

could be blocking the vent terminations.

• Double-check for faulty components: Any component
that is found to be faulty MUST BE replaced 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 could have to be purged again.

• Glass can now be reinstalled, followed by glass clips
and I-bolts (see Figure 28). I-bolts can be fastened by
using a special hook tool that is shipped with the fire­place. Finish the installation by installing decorative door.

Note: When removing or replacing the glass, use the spe­cial hook tool provided with the fireplace to turn the I-bolts to
a 45O angle for ease of operation. The I-bolts can then be
moved through the slots in the glass frame with the special
hook tool provided. Make sure the I-bolts end up in the ori­entation shown in Figure 28 when installation is complete.

Glass Specifications
OLYMPUS and TITAN TEMPERED GLASS

Hearth and Home Technologies fireplaces manufactured with
tempered glass may be installed in hazardous locations
such as bathtub enclosures as defined by the CPSC. The
tempered glass has been tested and certified to the require­ments of ANSI Z97.1-1984 and CPSC 16 CFR 1202. (Safety
Glazing Certification Council SGCC # 1595 and 1597. Ar­chitectural Testing, Inc. Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-

31917.01.)
This statement is in compliance with CPSC 16 CFR Sec-

tion 1201.5 “Certification and labeling requirements” which
refers to 15 USC 2063 stating “…Such certificate shall ac­company the product or shall otherwise be furnished to any
distributor or retailer to whom the product is delivered.”

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 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.

Some local building codes require the use of tempered glass
with permanent marking in such locations. Glass meeting
this requirement is available from the factory. Please con­tact your dealer or distributor to order.

Step 12. Lighting the Fireplace

After reviewing all safety warnings, checking the fireplace for gas leaks, checking that the vent system is unobstructed, and
checking for faulty components, be sure power is on and proceed with lighting fireplace.

FOR YOUR

SAFETY READ

BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR
EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING
PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY,
OR LOSS OF LIFE.

IPI IGNITION

A. This appliance is equipped with an intermittent pilot

ignition (IPI) device which automatically lights the
burner. Do not try to light the burner by hand.

B. BEFORE OPERATING smell all around the

appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the
floor because some gas is heavier than air and will
settle to the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any
phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s
phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.

C. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.

LIGHTING

INSTRUCTIONS (IPI)

1. STOP! Read the safety information on page 9 first!

2. Turn off all electric power to the appliance.

3. This appliance is equipped with an ignition device

which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to
light the burner by hand.

GAS

VALVE

4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then
smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell
gas, STOP! Follow "B" in the Safety Information lo­cated on the previous pages. If you don't smell gas,
go to next step.

5. Turn on all electric power to the appliance.

6 T o light the burner, flip the ON/OFF switch to the

“ON” position. (The ON/OFF switch may include a
wall switch if so equipped).

7. If the appliance will not operate, follow the in­structions “To Turn Off Gas to Appliance” and
call your service technician or gas supplier.

TO TURN OFF

GAS TO APPLIANCE

1. Turn off all electric power to the appliance if service is

to be performed.

2. Flip ON/OFF switch to the “OFF” position.

When you light your fireplace for the first time, you may

notice:

• This gas appliance produces heat which does have an
associated odor or smell. If you feel this odor is exces­sive it may require the initial 3-4 hour continuous burn on
high followed by a second burn of up to 12 hours to fully
drive off any odor from paint and lubricants used in the
manufacturing process. Additionally, for the first few min­utes after each lighting, vapor may condense and fog the
glass and flames may be blue. After a few minutes this
moisture will disappear and within 15-30 minutes the flames
should become yellow.

During the 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.

• Noise caused by metal expanding and contracting as it
heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced
by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect
the operation or longevity of your fireplace.
