I. Control Module Operation

1. The control module has an ON/OFF/REMOTE selector switch that must be set. See Figure 2.1.

OFF Position: Appliance will ignore all power inputs and

will not respond to any commands from a wall switch or remote. The unit should be in the OFF position during installation, service, battery installation, fuel conversion, and in the event that the control goes into LOCK-OUT mode as a result of an error code.

ON Position: Appliance will ignite and run continuously

in the HI ame setting, with no adjustment in ame output. This mode of operation is primarily used for initial installation or power outage operation with battery backup.

REMOTE Position: Appliance will initiate commands

from an optional wired wall switch and/or the wireless remote (RC300AU).

2. If using a wired wall switch with the module in REMOTE mode, the ame output can be adjusted with the HI/ LO selector switch on the module. See Figure 2.3. Note that the ame HI/LO selector switch will become inactive once an optional remote control (RC300AU) is programmed to the control module. Note that the control module will always ignite the replace on HI and remain so for the initial 10 seconds of operation. If the HI/LO is switched to the LO position, the ame output will automatically drop to the lowest setting after the ame has been established for 10 sec. After this 10 second period, the ame can be adjusted from HI to LO with the switch.

3. The control module has safety feature that automatically shuts down the replace after 9 hours of continuous operation without receiving a command from the RC300AU remote.

4. If you intend to use both an optional wired wall switch and the RC300AU remote control to operate your replace, the wall switch will override any commands given by the remote.

5. The module has the capability to recognize potential malfunctions. If these occur, it will fail to ignite and/ or respond to a command to ignite via the wall switch and/or remote. In this case, the module may have gone into LOCK-OUT mode. In this state, it will emit a LED error code. To reset the error code, switch the selector to OFF, and then back to REMOTE or ON. If the ignition command again fails, the module will emit an LED error code, prior to going back into LOCK-OUT mode. Contact your dealer for service if this occurs.

ISSUE SOLUTIONS

Condensation on the glass

Blue ames

Odor from replace

Film on the glass

Metallic noise

Power Outages (battery backup)

Wall above appliance feels hot to the touch.

This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the replace warms, this condensation will disappear.

This is a result of normal operation and the ames will begin to yellow as the replace is allowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

When rst operated, this replace may release an odor for the rst several hours. This is caused by the curing of materials from manufacturing. Odor may also be released from nishing materials and adhesives used near the replace. These circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation environment.

This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance 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 the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the replace.

This appliance can operated on battery power in the event of a power outage. To access the battery pack, the decorative front, mesh and glass assembly must be removed. Refer to Section 12 for more details.

No action necessary. This appliance ships with a non-combustible material attached. Specications of the attached non-combustible material are listed in Section 1.E.

Flue Information

A. Flue Components

These models are approved to use Hearth & Home Technologies series pipes, components and termination. Approved components are labeled for identication. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved component of

the stove.

DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED FLUE COMPONENTS. Refer to the flue manufacturer’s instructions.

This product is approved to be flued either horizontally, through the side wall or vertically through the roof. You may flue through a Class A or masonry chimney if an approved adapter is used.

This gas stove is a balanced ue gas stove. All combustion air must come directly from the outside of the building. The ue pipe for this unit consists of an inner and an outer pipe. The inner pipe carries the gas stove exhaust out of the system, and the outer pipe brings fresh combustion air into the gas stove.

• A round support box/wall thimble or heat shield is required when the ueing passes through a combustible wall.

• A support box or ceiling restop is required when the ueing passes through a combustible ceiling.

• Roof ashing and a storm collar are required when ueing passes through the roof.

• Follow instructions provided with the ueing for installation of these items.

B. Use of Elbows

CAUTION

ALL ue conguration specications MUST be followed.

• This product is tested and listed to these specications.

• Appliance performance will suffer if specications are not followed.

Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal ue aspects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see Figure 7.1).

Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow. On 45º runs, 12 in. (305 mm) of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A length of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows (see Figure 7.1).

WARNING

Fire Hazard.

Explosion Risk.

Asphyxiation Risk.

Do NOT connect this gas stove to a chimney ue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas burning gas stove.

• Flue this gas stove directly outside.

• Use separate ue system for this gas stove.

May impair safe operation of this gas stove or other gas stoves connected to the ue.

C. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements were made using the following standards.

• Pipe measurements are from center line to center line.

• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside edge of termination cap. See Figure 7.3.

• Horizontal pipe should be installed level with no rise.

Step 2.

For installations using a round support box/wall thimble (check pipe manufacturer's instructions), mark the wall for a 9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm) square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the center line of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the hole in the exterior wall where the flue will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of noncombustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7 in. (178 mm) diameter hole is acceptable.

Fire Risk.

Explosion Risk.

Combustion Fume Risk.

Use ue run supports per installation instructions.

Connect ue sections per installation instructions.

• Maintain all clearances to combustibles.

• Do NOT allow ue to sag below connection point to gas stove.

• Maintain specied slope (if required).

Improper support may allow ue to sag or separate.

Step 3.

Position the horizontal termination cap in the center of the 9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm) square hole and run a bead of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, to make a seal between it and the wall. Attach termination cap to the exterior wall with the four wood screws provided. The arrow on the flue cap should be pointing up.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

Review the ueing congurations in Figures A, B and C on the next page.

CAUTION! Risk of Cuts, Abrasions or Flying Debris.

Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during instal-

lation. Sheet metal edges are sharp.

1. Assembling Slim Line Trim Ring and Heat Shield

Figure 7.15

Lay the trim ring on at surface and bend up the six welded brackets into a 90 degree position. The brackets along the outer edge of the ring are for locating the ring in the center of the hole.

Figure 7.17

Attach the heat shield to the trim ring with the four screws provided. Screws go through the heat shield and into the brackets on the trim ring.

2. Installing Slim Line Trim Ring and Heat Shield

Measure from the oor to the center of the ue pipe. Cut out a 9-1/2 in. (240 mm) hole in the wall. Hold the trim ring/heat shield assembly in place and put a mark on the shield with a black marker where it protrudes through the exterior wall. Figure A on the previous page.

Use that mark as a guide to trim off excess heat shield with a pair of sheet metal shears.

Figure 7.16

The heat shield is shipped at and must be hand bent into a half circle before attaching it to the trim ring. Bend the heat shield as shown.

Heat & Glo • VRT-AUB • 2123-980 Rev. J • 2/13

Figure 7.18

When installing the trim ring/heat shield assembly make sure the trim ring is centered in the hole and that the shield is above the pipe. There must be a minimum of 20 mm minimum clearance maintained to combustibles from the top of the heat shield.

Ensure that framing on the inside of the wall is a minimum inner framing diameter of 9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm).

The four trim ring mounting screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.

Step 1.

Check the installation instructions for required 10 in. (254 mm) clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces. (See Figure 7.19). Check the instructions for maximum vertical rise of the flueing system, and any maximum horizontal offset limitations. All offsets must fall within the set parameters of the flueing diagrams located in Section 7.

NOTE: Maximum vertical rise allowable is 38 ft. (11.58 m) Figure 7.20.

11.58 m (38 ft.)

MAXIMUM

Figure 7.20

Step 2.

Set the gas stove in its desired location. Drop a plumb

bob down from the ceiling to the position of the gas stove flue exit, and mark the location where the flue will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot where the flue will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will obstruct the flueing system. You may wish to relocate the gas stove, or to offset, as shown in Figure 7.21 to avoid cutting load bearing members.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

Explosion Risk.

Maintain ue clearance to combustibles as specied.

• Do not pack air space with insulation or other materials.

Failure to keep insulation or other materials away from ue pipe may cause re.

To install the round support box/wall thimble cover in a flat ceiling, cut a 229 mm square hole in the ceiling, centered on the hole drilled in Step 2. Frame the hole as shown in

Figure 7.22.

Figure 7.22

Step 4.

Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the gas stove up through the round support box. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their fully twist-locked position. Assemble as instructed.

Step 5.

Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drill hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles, as specified. Continue to assemble lengths of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the ceiling support box/wall thimble up through the roof line. Galvanized pipe and elbows may be utilized in the attic, as well as above the roofline. The galvanized finish is desirable above the roofline, due to its higher corrosion resistance (compared to black pipe).

Figure 7.23

Step 7.

Continue to assemble pipe sections until the height of the flue (before adding the termination cap) meets the minimum local code requirements. Note that for steep roof pitches, the flue height must be increased. See Roof Pitch Table (Figure 4.3). In high wind conditions, nearby trees adjoining rooflines, steep pitched roofs, and other similar factors can result in poor draft, or down drafting. In these cases increasing the flue height or switching to the high wind termination cap may solve this problem.

Step 8.

Slip the storm collar over the pipe, and push it down to the top of the flashing (Figure 7.24). Use non-hardening sealant above and below the joint between the storm collar and the pipe.

SECURE FLASHING WITH

NON-HARDENING SEALANT

AND ROOFING NAILS

NOTE:

(1) If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstruc-

tions, it is important to support the flue pipe every

91.4cm to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose, Figure 7.10, page 15.

(2) Whenever possible, use 45° elbows, instead of 90°

elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction to the flow of flue gases and intake air.

Step 6.

Slip the flashing over the pipe section(s) protruding through the roof. Secure the base of the flashing to the roof with roofing nails. Ensure the roofing material overlaps the top edge of the flashing as shown in Figure 7.23. Verify that the chimney is the required height above the roof. See roof pitch table, Figure 4.3.

Step 9.

Twist-lock the flue cap and seal.

Note: For multi-story vertical installations, a ceiling firestop is required at the second floor, and any subsequent floors (Figure 7.25). The opening should be framed to 9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm) inside dimensions, in the same manner as shown in Figure 7.22.

B. Wall Penetration Framing

Combustible Wall Penetration

Whenever a combustible wall is penetrated, you must frame a hole for the wall shield restop(s). The wall shield restop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold air inltration.

• The opening must be framed on all four sides using the same size framing materials as those used in the wall construction.

• SLP pipe - A wall shield restop must be placed on each side of an interior wall. A minimum 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) overlap of attached heat shields must be maintained.

• See Section 10.H for information for regarding the installation of a horizontal termination cap.

Non-Combustible Wall Penetration

If the hole being penetrated is surrounded by noncombustible materials such as concrete, a hole with diameter one inch greater than the pipe is acceptable.

Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall shield restop is only required on one side and no heat shield is necessary.

• The rear ue heat shield MUST be placed 1 in. (25.4 mm) above the top of the ue between the wall shield and the base of the termination cap.

• One section of the heat shield is attached to the wall shield. The other is attached to the termination cap in the same manner (see Figure 10.17).

• The heat shield sections will overlap to match the wall thickness (depth).

• If the wall thickness does not allow the required 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) heat shield overlap, an extended heat shield must be used. The extended heat shield will need to be cut to the thickness of the wall and be attached to the wall shield.

• The small leg in the shield rests on top of the ue to properly space it from the pipe section (see Figure 10.17).

I. Heat Shield Requirements for Horizontal

Termination

WARNING! Risk of Fire! To prevent overheating and re, heat shields must extend through the entire wall thickness.

• DO NOT remove the heat shields attached to the wall shield restop and the horizontal termination cap (shown in Figure 10.18).

• Heat shields must overlap 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) minimum.

There are two sections of the heat shield. One section is factory-attached to the wall shield restop. The other section is factory-attached to the cap. See Figure 10.18.

If the wall thickness does not allow the required 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) heat shield overlap when installed, an extended heat shield must be used.

• If the wall thickness is less than 4-3/8 in. (111 mm), the heat shields on the cap and wall shield restop must be trimmed. A minimum 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap MUST be maintained.

• Use an extended heat shield if the nished wall thickness is greater than 7-1/4 in. (184 mm).

• The extended heat shield may need to be cut to length maintaining sufcient length for a 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap between heat shields.

• Attach the extended heat shield to either of the existing heat shields using the screws supplied with the extended heat shield. Refer to vent components diagrams in the back of this manual.

• Rest the small leg on the extended heat shield on top of the pipe section to properly space it from the pipe section.

Important Notice: Heat shields may not be eld constructed.

J. Install Metal Roof Flashing

• See minimum vent heights for various pitched roofs (Figure 10.19) to determine the length of pipe to extend through the roof.

• Slide the roof ashing over the pipe sections extending through the roof as shown in Figure 10.20.
