About curing of the paint
Your stove or fireplace has been painted with the highest quality silicone stove paint. This paint dries quickly in 15-20
minutes when first applied at the factory. However, due to the high temperature silicone components, the paint will cure
when heat is applied to the appliance as it is first used. The following information applies to the curing process to get the
paint fully hard and durable.
Fire the appliance four successive times for 10 minutes each firing and a 5 minute cool down between each. Be aware
during log and firebox paint curing that a white deposit may be developing on the inside of the glass doors. It is important
to remove this white deposit from the glass doors using a fireplace glass cleaner.
Babies, small children, pregnant women and pets should leave the area during the cure phase.
Ventilate well, open doors and windows.
Do not touch during curing.
Why does my fireplace or stove give off odour?
It is normal for your fireplace to give off some odor at first. This is due to the curing of the paint, adhesives, silicones and
any undetected oil from the manufacturing process as well as the finishing materials used with the installations (e.g.
marble, tile and the adhesives used to adhere this product to the walls can react with heat and cause odours).
It is recommended that you burn your gas fireplace or stove for a minimum of four hours at a time with the fan off (if a fan
is present) after the curing of the paint has been completed. These odours can last upward to 40 hours of burn time; keep
burning at a minimum of four hours per use until odours dissipate.
Noise coming from the fireplace?
Noise is caused by the expansion and contraction of metal as the appliance heats up and cools down. This is normal and
is similar to the sounds produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of
your fireplace.
It is also normal for the fan to make some noise when it comes on. This noise can be reduced somewhat by turning down
the speed of the fan with the variable speed control. Be aware, however, that this will reduce the volume of heated air
circulated into the room by the fan.
Note to the Installer:
Be sure appliance is working properly and its operation (including remote control operation, if included) is fully explained
to and understood by the customer.

Glass Cleaning
⚠ Cautions and Warnings
Do not clean when the glass is hot.
The use of substitute glass will void all product warranties (see Glass Replacement in this section).
Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass.
Do not operate this fireplace without the glass front or with a broken glass front.
Do not strike or abuse the glass.
13
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During startup, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of
the glass, and causes dust, lint etc. to cling to the glass surface.
Also, initial paint curing can deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended that initially the glass be
cleaned two or three times with a fireplace glass cleaner. After that, the glass should be cleaned two or three times a
season depending on the circumstances.
Glass Replacement
Only Robax ceramic or coated Neoceram glass may be used for replacement for all FDV451 / MQFDV453 Models. Glass
must be minimum 5mm thick.
To replace glass, clean all materials from the door frame. Scrape off old silicone all the way down to the metal. Using
high-temp silicone [rated up to 500°F (260°C)] apply a continuous bead of approximately 1/8”-3/16” to all four [4] sides of
the frame. With the frame resting on a flat surface, insert the new glass with a new gasket. Gently press the glass into the
silicone. Be careful not to use excessive force on the glass. Let the silicone dry for approximately 15-20minutes.
Use caution when removing broken glass. Wear gloves.

IPI Electronic Ignition System
Overview
The IPI system is an advanced burner controller that
provides you with the option of having either a StandingPilot, or an intermittent igniting system. This alternating
mode is controlled by the CPI/IPI Switch (Continuous Pilot
Ignition/Intermittent Pilot Ignition) located on the IPI System
Box. The difference between a Standing-Pilot and an
Intermittent-Pilot is in whether the pilot stays lit or shuts off:
In Standing-Pilot, the pilot assembly is lit by the IPI Main
Module and continues to stay lit until 1) the CPI/IPI Switch is
switched to the IPI position; 2) a loss of electrical power
(battery and AC source), 3) the flame sensor loses its signal,
4) the fuel supply discontinues, or 5) the IPI Main Module
malfunctions.
In the Intermittent-Pilot mode, the pilot shuts off when the
appliance is not in use. The advantage of this mode is that
fuel is not consumed when the fireplace is not operating.
NOTE: In some jurisdictions Intermittent-Pilot is required.
That means the pilot cannot remain lit when the appliance is
not operating.

IPI System Cover
: Is essential in keeping the components at
their proper operating temperatures. DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THIS COVER.
Modulating Servo Motor
: Is an add-on valve component that permits HI/LO functionality to be controlled by the remote.
Contrary to this feature is a Manual HI/LO Control Knob. The Modulating Servo Motor requires the Remote system to be
present.
Backup Battery Pack
: This component permits the IPI system to operate without the need for an external AC Adapter
power source. The advantage to using the battery backup is that in the case of a power failure, the appliance is still
operable.
NOTE: In certain instances the IPI Main Module requires resetting. This can occur if the system is unable to ignite the pilot
or the main burner in the allotted time period. The IPI is programmed to lockout all commands. To reset this lockout you
must deplete the system of all electrical power. This means to remove the batteries from the Battery Pack, remove the
batteries from the Remote Receiver (if applicable), and disconnect the AC Adapter from the system. Leave the power off
for approximately 25 seconds to clear its lockout.
Remote Receiver: This component provides the capability of controlling the appliance with a wireless remote tran smitter.
Standing Pilot Mode for Colder Climates (Below Freezing)
For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this
procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal
temperature is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence makin g i t easier to startup.
-Remote Control Operation-
41
The Proflame GTM is configured to control the on/off main burner operation, its flame levels, and provides on/off and
Smart thermostatic control of the appliance.
Transmitter
Transmitter
The Transmitter is powered by 3 AAA type batteries. A Mode
Key is provided to Index between the features and a
Thermostat Key is used to turn on/off or index through
thermostat functions
Remote Receiver
The Receiver connects directly to the gas valve and stepper
motor with a wiring harness. The Receiver is powered by 4 AA
type batteries. The Receiver three position slider switch can be
set to one of three positions: ON (Manual Override), Remote
(Remote control) or Off.
Initializing the System for the first time
Install 4 AA batteries into the receiver battery bay. Install 3
AAA type batteries in the Transmitter battery bay.
Place the 3 position slider switch in the “Remote” position.
Insert the end of a paper clip into the hole marked “PRG” on
the Receiver front cover. The Receiver will “beep” three (3)
times to indicate that it is ready to synchronize with a
Transmitter. Push the On button. The Receiver will “beep” four
times to indicate the Transmitter’s command is accepted. The
system is now initialized.
Temperature indication Display
With the system in the “OFF” position, press the Thermostat
Key and the Mode Key at the same time. Look at the LCD
screen on the Transmitter to verify that a C or F is visible to the
right of the Room Temperature display.
Turn the Appliance On or Off
Press the ON/OFF Key on the Transmitter
Remote Flame Control
The Proflame GTM has six (6) flame levels. Pressing the Down
Arrow Key once will reduce the flame height by one step until
the flame is turned off. The Up Arrow Key will increase the
flame height each time it is pressed. If the Up Arrow Key is
pressed while the system is on but the flame is off, the flame
will come on in the high
position.
NOTE: The Remote
Receiver module can also
be located outside of the
appliance to a maximum of
6ft away installed in a
certified deep wall switch
electrical box (2-3/4”
depth). For this
configuration an extension
wiring harness (P/N: 1001-
P904SI) is required.
Remote Receiver
Room Thermostat ( Transmitter Operation)
The Remote Control can operate as a room thermostat. To
activate this function, press the Thermostat Key. The LCD
display on the Transmitter will change to show that the room
thermostat is “ON” and the set temperature is now displayed.
To adjust the set temperature, press the Up or Down Arrow
Keys until the desired set temperature is displayed on the LCD
screen of the Transmitter.
Smart Thermostat (Transmitter Operation)
The Smart Thermostat function adjusts the flame height in
accordance to the difference between the set point
temperature and the actual room temperatures. As the room
temperature gets closer to the set point the Smart Function will
modulate the flame down. To activate this function, press the
Thermostat Key until the word "SMART" appears to the right of
the temperature bulb graphic. To adjust the set temperature,
press the Up or Down arrow Keys until the desired set point
temperature is displayed.
Key Lock Function
This function will lock the keys to avoid unsupervised
operation. To activate this function, press the MODE and the
UP Arrow Key at the same time. To de-activate this function,
press the MODE and the UP Arrow Key at the same time.
Low Battery Detection
Transmitter - When the Transmitter batteries are low, a
Battery Icon will appear on the LCD display of the Transmitter.
Receiver - When the Receiver batteries are low, No “beep” will
be emitted from the Receiver when it receives an On/Off
command from the Transmitter. When the batteries are
replaced the “beep” will be emitted from the Receiver when the
ON/OFF Key is pressed (See Initializing the System for the first
time).
Manual Bypass Of The Remote System
If the batteries of the Receiver or Transmitter are low or
depleted, the appliance can be turned on manually by sliding
the three position slider switch on the Receiver to the ON
position. This will bypass the remote control feature and the
appliance main burner will come on if the gas valve is in the
“On” position.

When using Simpson Duravent, Ameri-Vent pipe, BDM Pro Form Direct Vent, ICC Excel Direct, Metal Fab Sure-Seal DV
and or Selkirk Direct Temp a Duravent hard pipe adapter must be used (part # ZDVDFA for fire- places and part #
ZDVDKA for Stoves, Serenity and ZDV3624B). Follow installation instructions provided by Simpson Duravent/AmeriVent/Selkirk Direct Temp, ICC Excel Direct, and Metal Fab Sure-Seal DV for installation of pipe and adhere to the
clearance to combustibles provided in this manual. Apply a bead of Mill Pac high temp sealant to all joints of pipes,
adapters and termination, when using Kingsman Flex (Z-Flex) venting and Simpson Duravent venting.
Flex Pipe Venting
Kingsman Flex pipe is shipped in unexpanded length. When installing pipe expand the lengths. Pipe can be expanded to
twice their lengths e.g. 4ft. to 8ft. Fully expand pipe and cut off excess.
Do not use more than 2 couplers to extend short pipes. Single sections are preferred in an installation attaching at the
fireplace and termination.
Place the spring spaces provided approximately every two feet to stabilize 4” flex in the center of 7” flex. When forming
bends place spring in bend or before and after. (See Fig. 1). Horizontal runs require support metal straps every 2 feet. In
offset installation support straps should be used to stabilize pipe.
Expand 4” and 7” flex pipe to the point that the 7” protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inches past outer wall and the 4” flex
protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inches past the 7” flex. (See Fig. 1). Attach the 4” pipe to the termination first and secure

Since it is very important that the vent system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas
exhaust, certain limitations as to vent configurations apply and must be adhered to.
The maximum number of 90° elbows per installation is three (3). For each additional 90° elbow, the horizontal runs must
be reduced by 36" per 90° elbow. See venting chart for total horizontal and vertical runs. For each 45° elbow installed in
the horizontal run, the length of the horizontal run must be reduced by 18" (45 cm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows
are installed on the vertical part of the vent system. 45° elbows can be installed in either the horizontal or vertical runs.
Minimum clearances on venting (2" to top of elbow), (1" from top of horizontal pipes), (1" on all other existing pipes).
Only trim kit(s) supplied by the manufacturer shall be used in the installation of this appliance. Draft Relief Openings must
not be covered or blocked.

1. Use the Venting Table to determine the
minimum distance from the bottom of fireplace
to center of vent. Cut a hole through the wall
allowing for an 11” x 11” (inside diameter) in
combustible walls for wall thimble or an 8”
diameter hole in a non-combustible wall (See
Figure 3).
2. For the clearance to combustible above a 90
degree bend see Clearance to Combustibles section.
3. Select the approximate vent length, precise
measurements are not needed as your flex
pipe can be expanded to twice its shipped
length for ease of installation
4. To install wall thimble center over 11” x 11”
(inch) framing from both sides of wall and
secure. Route flex vent pipe through wall
thimble.
5. Before joining pipes, apply a bead of high
temperature sealant (Mill Pac) to end of pipe.
First attach the four inch (4”) flue pipe to the vent termination with sealant, and secure with the four screws
provided. At this time make sure the spacer springs are attached to the (4”) flex pipe as required. Then attach the
seven inch (7”) pipe by the same method.
6. Mount vent termination and seal to wall using caulking around the wall thimble to weather proof. After installing
the vent termination, double check to make sure the pipe extends properly through wall thimble and into vent
termination.
7. Before joining pipes to fireplace flue, apply a bead of high temperature sealant (Mill Pac) to end of pipe. First
attach the four inch (4”) flue pipe to fireplace with sealant, and secure with the four screws provided. At this time
verify that the spacer springs are attached properly to the (4”) flex pipe as required. Then attach the seven inch

(7”) pipe by the same method.
8. Support horizontal pipes every two (2) feet (61 cm) with metal strap bands. Re-check fireplace to make sure it is
levelled and properly positioned and secured.
9. Support vertical pipes to maintain a minimum of 1” or greater clearance to combustibles with metal strapping
bands.
Z47ST24 / Z47ST36 Horizontal Snorkel Terminations
Maintain All Clearances,
including proper rise and run.
Ensure adequate drainage.
53
Two snorkel terminations are available if a vertical rise is necessary on the exterior side of a building:
Z47ST24 (24” Tall, 14-1/2” Center to Center)Z47ST36(36” Tall, 26-1/2” Center to Center)
Follow standard horizontal venting installation procedures. If the Snorkel Termination is to be located below grade, a
window well is recommended with adequate and proper drainage as per local codes. Leave 2” clearance below snorkel to
prevent water from entering the Snorkel Termination. Do not enclose the Snorkel within a wall or other type of enclosure
and do not back fill. Ensure that grade level slopes away from the building. Follow all local codes.
-FOLLOW ALL LOCAL CODES-
A safety cage (Z57STSC) is also available.
Place safety cage over snorkel and mount with [4] DT screws (supplied with safety cage).

Using Flex Bends
Use roof support and rigid pipe at roof level. Flex pipe is not permitted within roof support.
When penetrating the roof a rigid galvanized pipe must be used. Attach flex pipe to the rigid pipe with high temperature
sealant, secure with four screws assuring the flex pipe and rigid pipe are secured. Attach rigid pipe to termination with
sealant and screw with 4 sheet metal screws. The Inner flex pipe must be secured with 4 screws which must penetrate
both the flex pipe and inner section of termination. Attach 7” rigid pipe to 7” termination with sealant and screw with 4
sheet metal screws.
Vertical termination clearance is 18" [45.7cm] above the roof, measured from highest point of exit on the roof line.
Support vertical pipes to maintain minimum of one inch or greater clearances to combustibles.
Roof Flashing
Ensure that you have the proper roof flashing by checking your roof pitch using a level and two rulers, or by using a roof
pitch card.
Slide a Roof Flashing suitable to your roof slope over the vent. Place the edge of the flashing plate that will be on the
higher part of the roof slope under the shingles. Both the sides and the lower edge lay on top of the shingles.
NOTE: At the top edge of the flashing plate, lift the shingles and nail the plate to the roof deck, then cement the
shingles to the plate with a suitable waterproof mastic.
Ensure that the chimney is plumb. Square up the flashing plate and nail in place to the roof deck. Use 12 nails with
neoprene washers or cover the heads with a suitable waterproof mastic. Wrap the storm collar around the vent above the
flashing. Secure the ends together loosely with nut and bolt supplied. Slide the collar down the vent until it comes in
contact with the flashing. Tighten the bolt and seal the Storm Collar to the vent with a suitable waterproof non-combustible
mastic.
The flashing and storm collar should be painted to match the roof shingles. This will extend its life and improve the
appearance. Clean, prime and paint with suitable painting products.

Vertical Venting in Cold Climates
In cold climate conditions where temperatures go below -10°C [14°F], we recommend that the chase be insulated and where the vent pipe
enters into the attic space that the pipe be wrapped with an insulated Mylar sleeve. This will increase the temperature of the vent and help the
appliance to vent properly in cold weather conditions.
It is also important in vertical vented direct vent appliances that the appliance be operated daily during the winter months as this will help stop
the Termination from freezing up. We recommend using a thermostat set at room temperature to allow the unit to cycle.
For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this procedure is
to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature is slightly elevated
the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to startup.
An Attic Insulation Shield must be
installed where the vent passes from
a lower living space into an attic
space where the chimney is not
enclosed. It is designed to keep
insulation materials away from the
chimney.
When installing the Attic Insulation
Shield where the chimney passes
from a living space to an attic space,
install the shield from below and
nail in place using 1" spiral nails.
56
used, a firestop is not required.
One pair (two) 45° elbows may be used to provide an offset in order to avoid cutting of joists and to clear other obstructions.
When using 45° elbows, an elbow support is required directly above the highest elbow.
When installing a bend in a joist area a minimum of 2” clearance to combustible to the top of bend must be maintained, sides and
bottom of pipe, a 1” clearance to combustibles must be maintained. If running horizontally through an area, a 1” clearance to the top of
the horizontal pipe must be maintained.
Maximum vertical height of system should not exceed 45 feet.
Spacer springs to be installed on 4" flex pipe every 3 ft. on vertical runs. On 45° elbows or 90° elbows a spacer spring is needed on the
start of the bend and on the end of bend.

Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and push the red button
again. If pilot will not light - check gap at electrode and pilot should be 1/8" to
1/4" to have a strong spark.
Check pilot flame. Must impinge on generator and thermocouple. Clean
and/or adjust pilot for maximum flame impingement on generator and
thermocouple. Replace thermocouple if pilot will not hold. (Hand tight 1/8 turn
on replacement)
Check wall switch and wires for proper connections. Jumper wire across
terminals at wall switch. If burner comes on, replace defective wall switch. If
okay, jumper wires, across wall switch wires at valve. If burner comes on,
wires are faulty or connections are bad.
Check generator with millivolt meter. Take reading at generator terminals of
gas valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while holding valve knob
depressed in pilot position and wall switch "off" Replace faulty generator if
reading is below specified minimum.
Remove wall switch wires from gas valve. Install jumper wires from top bottom
terminals of gas valve. Turn valve on "ON". If main burner does not light,
replace valve.
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame impingement on generator
and thermocouple.
Attach the inner liner to flue or termination using screws, silicone and clamps
