Listing and Code Approvals
A. Appliance Certification
MODEL: Dakota 42, Dakota 42H
TYPE: Vented Gas Fireplace
STANDARD: ANSI Z21. 50-2000•CSA2.22-M00
LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL)
This product is listed to ANSI standards for “Vented Gas
Fireplaces” and applicable sections of “Gas Burning Heating Appliances for Manufactured Homes and Recreational
Vehicles”, and “Gas Fired Appliances for Use at High Altitudes”.
B. Glass Specifications
Hearth & Home Technologies appliances manufactured with
tempered glass may be installed in hazardous locations
such as bathtub enclosures as defined by the Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The tempered glass
has been tested and certified to the requirements of ANSI
Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1202 (Safety Glazing Certification
Council SGCC# 1595 and 1597. Architectural Testing, Inc.
Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-31917.01).
This statement is in compliance with CPSC 16 CFR Section
1201.5 “Certification and labeling requirements” which refers
to 15 U.S. Code (USC) 2063 stating “…Such certificate
shall accompany the product or shall otherwise be furnished
to any distributor or retailer to whom the product is delivered.”
Some local building codes require the use of tempered glass
with permanent marking in such locations. Glass meeting

D. High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved without
requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in the
U.S.A. and Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000
feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by
changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input
rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a
2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations
between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada. If the heating value
of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To
identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas
utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.
WARNING
Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under water.
NOTE: This installation must conform with local codes. In the
absence of local codes you must comply with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition in the U.S.A.
and the CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes in Canada.

Gas Information
A. Fuel Conversions
Before making gas connections ensure that appliance
being installed is compatible with the available gas type.
Any natural or propane gas conversions necessary to meet
the appliance and locality needs must be made by a qualified technician using Hearth & Home Technologies specified and approved parts.
B. Gas Pressures
Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance
performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made
following NFP A51.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Explosion Hazard.
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
above 1/2 psig.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
C. Gas Connection
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI 223.1.
Installation should be done by a qualified installer approved
and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be
performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.)
NOTE: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved) 1/2 inch (13mm) T-handle manual shut-of f valve and
flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13mm)
control valve inlet.
• If substituting for these components, please consult
local codes for compliance.
Optional: A 5 foot flexible gas line is available to those
regions which do not require black pipe to be used. See
Service Parts List (Section 13).
NOTE: Gas line MUST be run from right side of the
appliance.
WARNING
WARNING
Verify inlet pressures.
• High pressure may cause overfire
condition.
• Low pressure may cause explosion.
Install regulator upstream of valve if
line pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.
Pressure requirements for appliance are shown in the table
below.
Pressure Natural Gas Propane
Minimum 5.0 inches 11.0 inches
Inlet Pressure w.c. w.c.
Maximum Inlet 7.0 inches 11.0 inches
Gas Pressure w.c. w.c.
Manifold 3.5 inches 10.5 inches
Pressure w.c. w.c.
These pressures can be verified through the internal valve
access panels as shown on the following page.
Gas Leak Risk
• Support control when attaching pipe to
prevent bending gas line.
NOTE: The gap between the supply piping and gas access
hole may be plugged with non-combustible un-faced
insulation to prevent cold air infiltration.
