B. Limited Lifetime Warranty

Hearth & Home Technologies Inc.

LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

Hearth & Home Technologies Inc., 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.

harm.

Keep burner and control compartment
clean. See installation and operating
instructions accompanying appliance.

For additional information on operating your

Hearth & Home Technologies fi replace, please refer to www.fi replaces.com.

I. After Fireplace is Lit

Initial Break-in Procedure

• The fireplace should be run three to four hours
continuously on high.

• Turn the fi replace off and allow it to completely cool.

• Remove fi xed glass assembly. See Section 15.J.

• Clean fi xed glass assembly. See Section 3.

• Replace the fi xed glass assembly and run continuously
on high an additional 12 hours.

This cures the materials used to manufacture the fi re-
place.

Indicator

NOTICE! Open windows for air circulation during fi replace

break-in.

• Some people may be sensitive to smoke and

odors.

• Smoke detectors may activate.

J. Flame Adjustment Control

Some appliances come equipped with a high/low fl ame
adjustment control.

• Open control access panel

• Compare your valve to Figures 2.4 & 2.5.

ISSUE SOLUTIONS

Condensation on the glass This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this

condensation will disappear.

Blue fl ames This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the appliance is allowed

to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

Odor from appliance When fi rst operated, this appliance 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 appliance. These circumstances may require additional curing
related to the installation environment.

Film on the glass This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. 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.

Metallic noise 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 appliance.

Is it normal to see the pilot
fl ame burn continually?

In an IntelliFire ignition system (IPI), the pilot fl ame should turn off when appliance is turned off.
Some optional control systems available with IPI models may allow pilot fl ame to remain lit. In a
standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.

B. Design and Installation Considerations

Heatilator direct vent gas appliances are designed to op­erate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the
building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside. No
additional outside air source is required.

Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier,
local building inspector, fi re offi cials or authorities having
jurisdiction over restrictions, installation inspection and
permits.

Before installing, determine the following:

• Where the appliance is to be installed.

• The vent system confi guration to be used.

• Gas supply piping.

• Electrical wiring requirements.

• Framing and fi nishing details.

• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,

wall switch, or remote control—are desired.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For
assistance or additional information, consult a qualifi ed
service technician, service agency or your dealer.

C. Tools and Supplies Needed

Before beginning the installation be sure that the following
tools and building supplies are available.

Tape measure Framing material

Caulking material (300ºF minimum continuous exposure

rating)
One 1/4 in. female connection (for optional fan).

D. Inspect Appliance and Components

• Carefully remove the appliance and components from
the packaging. Refer to Section 15.A & 15.C.

• The vent system components and decorative doors and
fronts may be shipped in separate packages.

• If packaged separately, the log set and appliance grate
must be installed.

• Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,
particularly the condition of the glass.

• Read all of the instructions before starting the installation.

B. Construct 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:

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.

Treatment of ceiling fi restops and wall shield

1-1/2 in.(38 mm)

T o further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling fi restops
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 slab, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath
to prevent conducting cold up into the room.

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.

Combustible flooring may be installed
next to the front of the appliance.
