H. IPI Battery Tray/Battery Installation
The IntelliFire PlusTM system has a battery backup option.
Battery longevity and performance will be affected by the
service temperatures of this appliance.
MODULE
NOTICE:
Batteries should only be used as a power source
in the event of an emergency such as an outage.
I. Control Module Operation
1. The control module has an ON/OFF/REMOTE selector
switch that must be set. See Figure 2.3.
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 fl ame setting, with no adjustment in fl 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.
2. If using a wired wall switch with the module in REMOTE
mode, the fl ame output can be adjusted with the HI/LO
selector switch on the module. See Figure 2.3. Note
that the fl ame HI/LO selector switch will become inactive
once an optional remote control is programmed to the
control module. Note that the control module will always
ignite the fi replace on HI and remain so for the initial 10
seconds of operation. If the HI/LO is switched to the
LO position, the fl ame output will automatically drop to
the lowest setting after the fl ame has been established
for 10 sec. After this 10 second period, the fl ame can
be adjusted from HI to LO with the switch.
3. The control module has safety feature that automatically
shuts down the fi replace after 9 hours of continuous
operation without receiving a command from the remote.
4. If you intend to use both an optional wired wall switch
and the remote control to operate your fi replace, the wall
switch will override any commands given by the remote.
5. Module Reset
This module may lock-out under certain conditions.
When this occurs, the appliance will not ignite or respond
to commands. The module will go into lock-out mode
by emitting three audible beeps, then continuously
displaying a RED/GREEN error code at its status
indicator LED.
• Check battery tray. Remove batteries if installed.
Batteries should only be installed for use during power
outages. See Section H.
• Locate the module selector switch. (See Figure 2.3).
• Set the module selector switch to the OFF position.

M. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUESOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glassThis is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this
condensation will disappear.
Blue fl amesThis 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 applianceWhen 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 glassThis 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 noiseNoise 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 Plus™ 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. 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.
Treatment of ceiling fi restops and wall shield
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 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. 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).
D. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards.
• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe (see Figure 7.2).
• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (fl ange of termination cap) (see
Figure 6.4.).
• Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of
termination cap.
• Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.

E. Vent Diagrams
To replace the fi rst starter elbow with two 45° elbows,
refer to Figure 7.4. All other 90° elbows can be replaced
with two 45° elbows.
General Rules:
• SUBTRACT 3 ft. from the total H measurement for each
90° elbow installed horizontally.
• SUBTRACT 1-1/2 ft. from the total H measurement for
each 45° elbow installed horizontally.
• A maximum of three 90° elbows (or six 45° elbows)
may be used in any vent confi guration. Some elbows
may be installed horizontally. See Figure 7.8.
• Elbows may be placed back to back anywhere in the
system as long as the fi rst 90° elbow is a starter elbow
except as shown in Figure 7.4.
• When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield
fi restop must be installed.
• When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling
fi restop must be installed.
• Horizontal runs of vent do not require vertical rise;
horizontal runs may be level.
Note: The NNXT series appliances can adapt to
SLP series vent pipe when venting off the top of
the appli ance. You must u se a DVP-SLP24 a dapter
which can only be attached to the appliance starting
collar.
When looking at horizontal termination diagrams, the
adapter is not counted as part of the minimum vertical
(V
min.) requirements.

Whether horizontal or vertical termination, the adapter is
counted as part of the maximum vertical limitations.
All venting rules for the vent run must still be followed.
