Installation Codes
The appliance installation must conform to local codes. Before installing the
appliance, 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/CGAB149 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).
Appliance Certification
The Heat-N-Glo models discussed in this Installers
Guide have been tested to certification standards and
listed by the applicable laboratories.
CERTIFICATION
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting room in the U.S.A.
and Canada.
High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to
2,000 feet in the U. S. A. and are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to
4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance 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.

Masonry or Factory Built Non Combustible fireplaces that have been installed
in accordance with the National, Provincial, State and local building codes.
2. Minimum fireplace opening requirements are shown in Figure 1 of this installation manual. The firebrick (refactory) can be removed from a factory built
fireplace in order to gain minimum gas insert opening requirements.
3. To assure top performance, safety and efficiency, inserts must be installed
with an approved flue liner as per CAN/CGA B-149 or National Fuel Code
ANSI Z223 and these instructions.
!
WARNING

chimney.
7. Install the insert without the trim surround and make all gas, venting, and
electrical connections.
WARNING
!
Under no circumstances cutting of sheet metal surfaces are allowed for installation.
If the factory built fireplace has no gas access holes provided, an
!
access hole of 1 diameter (25mm) or less may be drilled through
the lower sides or bottom of the combustion chamber in a proper
workmanship like manner.
8. Install decorative trim surround. Please refer to instructions included with the
trim surround.
Ensure there are no obstructions to side air passages of decora-
!
tive trim once installed on insert.

Vent System
Vent System Installation Precautions
Before starting installation of vent kits, the installer
should read these instructions and the Vent Kit
Instructions to ensure that a proper vent installation is
completed.
Consult your local Building Codes before beginning
the Installation.
WARNING
THIS GAS INSERT AND VENT
ASSEMBLY MUST BE VENTED
DIRECTLY TO THE OUTSIDE AND
MUST NEVER BE ATTACHED TO A
CHIMNEY SERVING A SEPARATE
SOLID FUEL BURNING APPLIANCE.
EACH GAS APPLIANCE MUST USE A
SEPARATE VENT SYSTEM. COMMON
VENT SYSTEMS ARE PROHIBITED.
Vent System Approvals
Table 1 and Figure 3 through 5 shows the vent
termination caps and systems approved for the use
with these models. Approved vent system
terminations are labeled for identification. 3-inch
diameter listed flexible aluminum or stainless steel
gas vent is used for both the incoming combustion air
and exhaust vent pipes. NO OTHER VENTING
SYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.
Detailed installation instructions are included with
each vent termination kit and should be used in
conjunction with this manual.
Horizontal Venting
The vent system on this model CANNOT be
terminated horizontally.
Vertical Venting
The vent pipes MUST be connected to the proper
collars on the unit AND the exhaust vent pipe MUST
be connected to the termination cap or the unit will not
operate. The combustion air vent pipe CAN be
connected to the termination cap or it can terminate
inside the chimney. The bottom opening of the
chimney must be sealed around the vent pipes if the
combustion air vent is NOT connected to the
termination cap. See Figures 3, 4 and 5.
NOTE: The minimum vertical rise (exhaust vent) is
14 feet and the maximum vertical rise is 50 feet.
These dimensions are measured from the starting
collars of the unit to the end of the last section of vent
pipe See dimension V in Figure 3.
