!
Owners Guide.
DO NOT USE this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately CALL a
!
qualified service technician to inspect the unit and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been underwater.
THIS UNIT IS NOT FOR USE WITH SOLID FUEL.
!
Installation and repair should be PERFORMED by a qualified service person. The
!
appliance and venting system should be INSPECTED before initial use and at least
annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due
to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is IMPERATIVE that the units
control compartment, burners, and circulating air passageways BE KEPT CLEAN to
provide for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
Always KEEP the appliance clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and
!
other flammable vapors and liquids.
NEVER OBSTRUCT the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Keep the front of the
!
appliance CLEAR of all obstacles and materials for sevicing and proper operations.
Due to the high temperature, the appliance should be LOCATED out of traffic areas and
!
away from furniture and draperies. Clothing or flammable material SHOULD NOT BE
PLACED on or near the appliance.
Children and adults should be ALERTED to the hazards of high surface temperature and
!
should STAY AWAY to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be
CAREFULLY SUPERVISED when they are in the same room as the appliance.
These units MUST use one of the vent systems described in the Installing the Fireplace
!
section of the Installers Guide. NO OTHER vent systems or components MAY BE USED.
This gas fireplace and vent assembly MUST be vented directly to the outside and MUST
!
NEVER be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance. Each

Installation Codes
The fireplace installation must conform to local codes. Before installing the
fireplace, consult the local building code agency to ensure that you are in
compliance with all applicable codes, including permits and inspections.
In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation must conform to the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (in the United States) or the CAN/CGAB149 Installation Codes (in Canada). The appliance must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes with
the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (in the United States), or to the
CSA C22.1Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting room in the U.S.A.
and Canada.
Appliance Certification
The Heat-N-Glo fireplace models discussed in this
Installers Guide have been tested to certification
standards and listed by the applicable laboratories.
CERTIFICATION
Z21.50 CGA2.22
High Altitude Installations
UL Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to 2,000
feet in the U.S.A., and from 0 to 4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2,000 feet (in the United
States), it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing
burner orifice to a smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent (4%) for
each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating value of the gas has been
reduced, in which case this general rule will not apply. To identify the proper
orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation between 2,000 and 4,500 feet (in
Canada), the input rating must be reduced by ten percent (10%).
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4,500 feet (in Canada), check
with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determining the proper orifice for
your location.

Introducing the
Heat-N-Glo
Fireplaces
Heat-N-Glo direct vent gas fireplaces are designed to
operate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the
building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside.
The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless
noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control
systems.
Gas fireplace diagrams, including the dimensions, are shown
in this section.

shipment, particularly the condition of the glass. Do
not install any unit with damaged, incomplete, or
substitute parts.
The vent system components are shipped in separate
packages. The gas logs are packaged separately and
must be field installed. Read all of the instructions
before starting the installation. Follow these
instructions carefully during the installation to
ensure maximum safety and benefit. Failure to
follow these instructions will void the owners
warranty and may present a fire hazard.
The Heat-N-Glo Warranty will be voided by, and Heat-NGlo disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:
Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system
component.
Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.
Installation other than as instructed by Heat-N-Glo.
Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.
Getting
Started
Installation and/or use of any component part not manu-
factured and approved by Heat-N-Glo, not withstanding
any independent testing laboratory or other party ap-
proval of such component part or accessory.
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A
FIRE HAZARD.

When planning a fireplace installation, its necessary to determine:
Where the unit is to be installed.
The vent system configuration to be used.
Gas supply piping.
Electrical wiring.
Framing and finishing details.
Whether optional accessoriesdevices such as a fan, wall switch, or remote
controlare desired.
If the fireplace is to be installed on carpeting or tile, or on any combustible
material other than wood flooring, the fireplace should be installed on a metal or
wood panel that extends the full width and depth of the fireplace.

vent system components and terminations.
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the
type of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.
Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may
include one, two, or three 90
relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent
configurations using 90
adhered to. The rise to run relationship are shown in
the venting drawings and tables. Refer to the
