B. Limited Lifetime Warranty
Hearth & Home Technologies
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Hearth & Home Technologies, on behalf of its hearth brands (”HHT”), extends the following warranty for HHT
gas, wood, pellet, coal and electric hearth appliances that are purchased from an HHT authorized dealer.
WARRANTY COVERAGE:
HHT warrants to the original owner of the HHT appliance at the site of installation, and to any transferee taking ownership
of the appliance at the site of installation within two years following the date of original purchase, that the HHT appliance
will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of manufacture. After installation, if covered components manufactured by HHT are found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the applicable warranty period,
HHT will, at its option, repair or replace the covered components. HHT, at its own discretion, may fully discharge all of its
obligations under such warranties by replacing the product itself or refunding the verified purchase price of the product
itself. The maximum amount recoverable under this warranty is limited to the purchase price of the product. This warranty
is subject to conditions, exclusions and limitations as described below.
WARRANTY PERIOD:
Warranty coverage begins on the date of original purchase. In the case of new home construction, warranty coverage
begins on the date of first occupancy of the dwelling or six months after the sale of the product by an independent,
authorized HHT dealer/ distributor, whichever occurs earlier. The warranty shall commence no later than 24 months
following the date of product shipment from HHT, regardless of the installation or occupancy date. The warranty period for
parts and labor for covered components is produced in the following table.
The term “Limited Lifetime” in the table below is defined as: 20 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for
gas appliances, and 10 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for wood, pellet, and coal appliances. These
time periods reflect the minimum expected useful lives of the designated components under normal operating conditions.
See conditions, exclusions, and limitations on next page.

B. Limited Lifetime Warranty (continued)
WARRANTY CONDITIONS:
• This warranty only covers HHT appliances that are purchased through an HHT authorized dealer or distributor. A list of
HHT authorized dealers is available on the HHT branded websites.
• This warranty is only valid while the HHT appliance remains at the site of original installation.
• Contact your installing dealer for warranty service. If the installing dealer is unable to provide necessary parts, contact
the nearest HHT authorized dealer or supplier. Additional service fees may apply if you are seeking warranty service
from a dealer other than the dealer from whom you originally purchased the product.
• Check with your dealer in advance for any costs to you when arranging a warranty call. Travel and shipping charges
for parts are not covered by this warranty.
WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:
This warranty does not cover the following:
• Changes in surface finishes as a result of normal use. As a heating appliance, some changes in color of interior and
exterior surface finishes may occur. This is not a flaw and is not covered under warranty.
• Damage to printed, plated, or enameled surfaces caused by fingerprints, accidents, misuse, scratches, melted items,
or other external sources and residues left on the plated surfaces from the use of abrasive cleaners or polishes.
• Repair or replacement of parts that are subject to normal wear and tear during the warranty period. These parts
include: paint, wood, pellet and coal gaskets, firebricks, grates, flame guides, batteries and the discoloration of glass.
• Minor expansion, contraction, or movement of certain parts causing noise. These conditions are normal and complaints related to this noise are not covered by this warranty.
• Damages resulting from: (1) failure to install, operate, or maintain the appliance in accordance with the installation
instructions, operating instructions, and listing agent identification label furnished with the appliance; (2) failure to
install the appliance in accordance with local building codes; (3) shipping or improper handling; (4) improper operation, abuse, misuse, continued operation with damaged, corroded or failed components, accident, or improperly/
incorrectly performed repairs; (5) environmental conditions, inadequate ventilation, negative pressure, or drafting
caused by tightly sealed constructions, insufficient make-up air supply, or handling devices such as exhaust fans or
forced air furnaces or other such causes; (6) use of fuels other than those specified in the operating instructions; (7)
installation or use of components not supplied with the appliance or any other components not expressly authorized
and approved by HHT; (8) modification of the appliance not expressly authorized and approved by HHT in writing;
and/or (9) interruptions or fluctuations of electrical power supply to the appliance.
• Non-HHT venting components, hearth components or other accessories used in conjunction with the appliance.
• Any part of a pre-existing fireplace system in which an insert or a decorative gas appliance is installed.
• HHT’s obligation under this warranty does not extend to the appliance’s capability to heat the desired space. Information is provided to assist the consumer and the dealer in selecting the proper appliance for the application. Consideration must be given to appliance location and configuration, environmental conditions, insulation and air tightness of
the structure.
This warranty is void if:
• The appliance has been over-fired or operated in atmospheres contaminated by chlorine, fluorine, or other damaging
chemicals. Over-firing can be identified by, but not limited to, warped plates or tubes, rust colored cast iron, bubbling,
cracking and discoloration of steel or enamel finishes.
• The appliance is subjected to prolonged periods of dampness or condensation.
• There is any damage to the appliance or other components due to water or weather damage which is the result of, but
not limited to, improper chimney or venting installation.
LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY:
• The owner’s exclusive remedy and HHT’s sole obligation under this warranty, under any other warranty, express or
implied, or in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be limited to replacement, repair, or refund, as specified above. In no
event will HHT be liable for any incidental or consequential damages caused by defects in the appliance. Some states
do not allow exclusions or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these limitations may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific rights; you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. EXCEPT TO
THE EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, HHT MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE WARRANTY
SPECIFIED HEREIN. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO DURATION OF THE
EXPRESSED WARRANTY SPECIFIED ABOVE.

J. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUE SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass
Blue fl ames
Odor from fi replace
Film on the glass
Metallic noise
Optional Rock Media Kit
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the fi replace warms, this con-
densation will disappear.
This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the fi replace is allowed
to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
When fi rst operated, this fi replace may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is caused
by the curing of materials from manufacturing. Odor may also be released from fi nishing materials
and adhesives used near the fi 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 fi replace.
There may be some “cracking” noise coming from the fi replace during the fi rst few heating and
cooling cycles. This noise is associated with settling rock and some minor cracking of larger
pieces of rock. This will lessen over time as the glass rock is conditioned to the heating and cooling temperature changes.
It is expected that a few small pieces (approximately 10 pieces) of rock may fall through the basepan and come to rest on the fi replace bottom. This has no affect on fi replace performance.
Power Outages
(battery backup)
Wall above appliance feels hot to
the touch.
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

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 traffi c and away from furniture and draperies.
NOTICE: Illustrations refl ect typical installations and are
FOR DESIGN PURPOSES ONLY. Illustrations/diagrams
are not drawn to scale. Actual installation may vary due to
individual design preference.

E
1 IN.
It is important to follow the framing and fi nishing
instructions step by step to ensure proper placement of
fi replace in the surrounding framing/fi nishing materials.
Unlike many traditional, single sided Heatilator fi replaces,
the RA VE4013I-C is recessed into surround framing. The left
and right nailing tabs were designed to ensure the fi replace is
recessed to the correct location within the framing materials.
Refer to Section 13 for detailed instructions on fi nishing.

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 enclosed inside the chase.
NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling fi restops and wall shield
fi restops 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 fl oor of the chase
should be insulated. Vapor and air infi ltration barriers
should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for
the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold
air infi ltration 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 fi re-
stops should be caulked with caulk with a minimum of
300ºF continuous exposure rating to seal gaps. Gas line
holes and other openings should be caulked with caulk
with a minimum of 300ºF continuous exposure rating 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.
The factory-supplied non-combustible board must be
used in all installations. It must be directly attached to
structural framing adjacent to the appliance. Screw fasteners should be installed in the pilot holes provided in
the outer perimeter of the non-combustible board. See
Figure 13.2.
The factory-supplied board is designed such that its edges will be at the approximate center of the adjacent framing, assuming it is 1-1/2 in. nominal thickness. This will
allow the wallboard joints to occur on the center of the
framing where the panels can be fastened properly . If the
framing thickness is less than 1-1/2 in. nominal, such as
with formed steel systems, then it may be necessary to
adjust the adjacent framing dimensions so that the noncombustible board and wallboard joints are centered on
the framing.

Page 19
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 specifi ed 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 fi replace or chimney.
• Failure to maintain airspace may cause overheating and
a fi re.
Note: Figure 5.2 shows the fi replace installed on the
fl oor. However, this fi replace can be elevated off the fl oor
provided that the fi replace is properly supported by framing
materials and the ceiling clearances are maintained.

C. Use of Elbows
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent 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, one foot 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).

Exhaust restrictors are recommended for these vertically
terminated products which have excessive draft. Exhaust
restrictors will compensate for high draft, and restore visual fl ame height. If the vent confi guration has a total ver-
tical of 15-44 feet, an exhaust restrictor may be needed.
The exhaust restrictor can be located in the appliance
manual bag.

fi restop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold
air infi 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 fi restop must be placed on each
side of an interior wall. A minimum 1-1/2 in. (38 mm)
overlap of attached heat shields must be maintained.
• See Section 10.K 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 in. greater than the pipe is acceptable.
Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall
shield fi restop is only required on one side and no heat
shield is necessary.

Finishing
A. Framing and Finishing Instructions
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specifi ed. Framing closer than the
minimums listed must be constructed entirely of noncombustible materials (i.e., steel studs, concrete board, etc.)
Finishing Instructions
It is important to follow the framing and fi nishing instruc-
tions to ensure proper placement of fi replace into the sur-
rounding framing/fi nishing materials.
Wall sheathing materials 1/2 in. thick are specifi ed in
this installation manual to properly align with the factoryinstalled non combustible material.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT remove the factoryinstalled non-combustible board or cover it with combustible material, such as:
• Drywall (gypsum board)
• Plywood
• Materials that do not meet the ASTM E 136 Non-combustibility standard (below).
Removal of factory-installed, non-combustible board and/
or use of materials not meeting the ASTM E 136 standard
may cause fi re.
FACTORY-INSTALLED
NON-COMBUSTIBLE BOARD
NAILING
TABS
Non-Combustible Materials Specifi cation
Material which will not ignite and burn. Such materials are
those consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile, concrete,
slate, glass or plasters, or any combination thereof.
Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136,
Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in
a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750 ºC shall be considered
non-combustible materials.
Setting the Fireplace into the Framing
Unlike many traditional, single-sided Heatilator fi replaces,
this fi replace is recessed into surround framing. The left
and right nailing tabs were designed for the RA VE4013I-C
model as a means to ensure the fi replace is recessed to
the correct location within the framing materials.
1. Bend two nailing tabs away from fi replace 180 degrees
on both left and right nailing tabs. See Figure 13.1.
2. Screw each nailing tab to the adjoining framing ma-
terial. Ensure that the 1 inch air space clearance is
maintained on the sides of the fi replace.

Figure 13.2 Finishing Details
CAUTION! Risk of Glass Damage and Cuts! DO NOT
drill or install any type of screw or fastener into the lower
cover panel. Sharp screw or fastener tips may penetrate
and break the glass or cause cuts.
Do not drill or install screws which may penetrate the lower cover panel as this will restrict required access to the
glass, battery-back-up, and remote receiver. See Figure
13.2.
The appliance is designed to accept 1/2 in. wall sheathing
materials such as drywall, plywood, wood composites, or
non-combustible materials. The type of material used depends whether the installation is an Inside or Overlap Fit
Method. Refer to Section 13.C regarding installation details associated with the Inside and Overlap Fit methods.
Requirements for fi nishing to bottom of fi replace opening
are specifi c to decorative fronts as follows:
DECO: Non-combustible fi nish materials maybe installed
up to the fi replace opening, covering lower fi nishing
fl ange.
ILLUSION: Requires a minimum of 1 inch clearance to
the non-combustible fi nishing material from the bottom
fi replace opening. See Figure 13.9.
The factory-supplied non-combustible board must be
used in all installations. It must be directly attached to
structural framing adjacent to the appliance. Screw fasteners should be installed in the pilot holes provided in
the outer perimeter of the non-combustible board. See
Figure 13.2.
The factory-supplied board is designed such that its edges will be at the approximate center of the adjacent framing, assuming it is 1-1/2 in. nominal thickness. This will
allow the wallboard joints to occur on the center of the
framing where the panels can be fastened properly . If the
framing thickness is less than 1-1/2 in. nominal, such as
with formed steel systems, then it may be necessary to
adjust the adjacent framing dimensions so that the noncombustible board and wallboard joints are centered on
the framing.
Note: Refer to Section 13.C regarding installation details
associated with the Inside and Overlap Fit methods.
The RAVE4013I-C must be fi nished using either the
Deco or Illusion decorative fronts. See Figures 13.11
and 13.12. The fi nal fi replace installation can be accom-
plished by either the Overlap Fit or Inside Fit method.
Reference Section 13.C regarding installation details associated with the Inside Fit and Overlap Fit methods.
It is acceptable to pre-drill holes and use self-tapped
screws in the factory-installed non-combustible board to
attach non-combustible backer board for tile, marble, etc.
Refer to Figure 13.2 for acceptable screw location and
screw length requirements.
Self-tapping screws, up to one inch long, can be installed
through the nailing tab and outer three inch edges of the
factory-installed non-combustible board to secure the
drywall adjacent to the factory-installed non-combustible
board. See Figure 13.2.

• For the initial Taping Coat, it is critical that a generalpurpose chemically hardening joint compound, such
as SHEETROCK™ Brand Durabond™ Setting-Type
Joint Compound, be used to fi ll the joint and embed
the mesh tape. Fiberglass-mesh tape is recommended
because it will provide a more crack-resistant joint
than one fi nished with paper tape. Let the Taping
Coat properly cure before applying subsequent Finish
Coats.
FIREPLACE OPENING
15-7/8 IN. TO 16-1/8 IN.
Figure 13.3. Required Fireplace Opening Height
Verify that the lower cover panel is installed correctly, and
that the fi replace opening height is between 15-7/8 in. and
16-1/8 in. See Figure 13.3.
Note: The lower cover panel must be pushed all the way
down. The outer fi nishing fl anges should line up. The
fi replace opening must be between 15-7/8 in. and 16-1/8
in. for the decorative fronts to fi t correctly. See Figure
13.3.
Finish and Sealing Joints
All joints between the fi nished wall sheating and the
appliance must be sealed with non-combustible materials.
Sealants, such as caulk or mastic used to seal the gap
between the wall and the fi replace, should be rated at
a minimum continuous exposure to 300°F. Wall board
joints can be taped and sealed with combustible drywall
tape.
Finishing Around Opening with Gypsum Wallboard
Gypsum wallboard (drywall) joints adjacent to the fi replace
opening require special attention to minimize potential
development of cracking. Hearth and Home Technologies
recommends the following steps to minimize potential
cracks in the fi nished drywall around the fi replace opening:
• When installing gypsum wallboard around the fi replace,
install the hole for the fi replace opening in a single
wallboard sheet, if possible. This will minimize the joints
adjacent to the fi replace opening.
• The factory-supplied non-combustible board and the
gypsum wallboard must join on the structural framing,
where applicable. Wallboard and non-combustible board
should be fastened to the framing with at least 1-1/4 in.
long screw fasteners, located within 1-1/2 in. from each
corner, and at no more than 12 inch intervals along the
joint length.
• The wall-board joints should be fi nished with a Taping
Coat, followed by at least two subsequent Finish Coats
of joint compound.
Heatilator • RAVE4013I-C • 2293-900 Rev. E • 2/1352
• For the second and third fi nishing coats, it is acceptable
to use a light-weight joint compound and standard
application, curing and sanding methods.
• Do not operate the fi replace during the drywall fi nishing
process. Allow the fi nish coat to cure for at least 24
hours prior to using the appliance.
Painting
If desired fi nishing includes a painted wall, 100%
acrylic latex with compatible primer is recommend
around the appliance. Oil-based or standard
acrylic paints may discolor due to heat exposure.
Wallboard Joint-Crack Prevention and Repair
Wallboard joints around the fi replace will be affected
by exposure to elevated temperatures, along with
other environmental and structural factors. The specifi c
methods presented in the previous section will help
prevent or minimize development of cracks.
If a crack does emerge adjacent the fi replace, it can be
permanently repaired by fi lling it with spackling paste or
paintable latex caulk, followed by repainting.
