Getting Started
2
A. Design and Installation Considerations
Heatilator B-vent gas appliances are designed to operate
with all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of the building,
and combustion air pulled from the room.
CAUTION
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional,
state and national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building, fire
offi cials or authorities having jurisdiction about
restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.
When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to
determine the following information before installing:
• Where the appliance is to be installed. See Section 3.
• The vent system confi guration to be used. See Sections
4 and 5.
• Gas supply piping. See Section 9.
• Electrical wiring. See Sections10
• Framing and finishing details. See Sections 3, 6
and 11.
• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan, wall
switch, or remote control—are desired. See Section 10.
WARNING
Keep appliance dry.
• Mold or rust may cause
odors.
• Water may damage controls.
Heatilator • GB4336/GB4992 • 4003-085 Rev H • 04/06 5
B. Negative Pressure
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk
• Negative pressure can cause spillage of
combustion fumes and soot.
• Fire needs to draft properly for safe
operation.
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent fi replaces
successfully. Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure.
• Location of fi replace and chimney.
Negative Pressure
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the fi replace to operate properly. Causes for this
imbalance include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.).
• Range hoods.
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters
and other combustion appliances.
• Clothes dryers.
• Location of return-air vents to furnace or air
conditioning.
To minimize the effects of negative air pressure, the following must be considered:
• Install the outside air kit. Install the intake on the side of
the house towards prevailing winds during the heating
season.
• Ensure adequate outdoor air is supplied for combustion
appliances and exhaust equipment.
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not
located in the immediate vicinity of the fi replace.
• Avoid installing the fi replace near doors, walkways or small
isolated spaces.
• Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design; attic
hatches weather stripped or sealed; attic mounted duct
work and air handler joints and seams taped or sealed.
• Basement installations should be avoided due to stack
effect. Stack effect creates negative pressure in lower
levels. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends the
use of direct vent fi replaces in basements.
Location of the fi replace and chimney will affect performance.
As shown in Figure 2.1 the chimney should:
• Be installed through the warm airspace enclosed by the
building envelope. This helps to produce more draft,
especially during lighting and die-down of the fi re.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the
effects of wind turbulence.
• Be located away from trees, adjacent structures, uneven
roof lines and other obstructions.
Offsets can restrict draft so their use should be minimized.
Consider the fi replace location relative to fl oor and ceiling
and attic joists.

B. Construct the Appliance Chase
A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the gas
appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that run on
the outside of a building may be, but are not required to be,
installed inside a chase.
Construction of the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Local building codes MUST
be checked.
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, Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the inside surfaces be sheetrocked and taped for
maximum air tightness.
To further prevent drafts, 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 slab, we recommend that a layer of plywood
be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the
room.
WARNING
Fire Risk
• Construct chase to all clearance
specifi cations in manual.
