personal injury or loss of life.
WARNING: The IDV33/IDV36
Fireplace Insert was designed for
installation in a solid fuel fireplace
that has been installed in accordance
with national, provincial/state and
local building codes and is constructed
of noncombustible materials. Do not
remove any refractory materials
from any masonry solid fuel fireplace.
The IDV33/IDV36 Fireplace Insert
was designed for installation in a
zero clearance type listed solid fuel
burning factory built fireplace. It
may be necessary to remove the
damper plate and refractory liners.
Removal of the smoke baffle is necessary
in most cases.

Why does my fireplace or stove give off odour?
It is normal for your fireplace to give off some odour. 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 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.
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 with an
appropriate cleaner to prevent build-up (such as Windex or a commercial 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.
Noise coming from the fireplace?
• Noise 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 your fireplace.

Operating and Maintenance Instructions
This gas appliance should be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with local building codes and with current CAN/CGA - B149
(.1 or .2) installation codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment.
For safe installation and operation
note the following:
Never use your gas fireplace as a cooking device.
The Burner/Log Assembly has been engineered and permanently
adjusted for proper flame control.
Periodically remove the logs from the grate assembly and vacuum any loose particles from the grate and burner areas. See Log
Placement page 19 to remove logs. Vacuum burner parts and
replace logs.
Note: It is normal for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the
first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any
undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your gas fireplace for at least four (4)
hours the first time you use it without the fan on.
Warning: When purging the gas line, the glass front must be
removed.
Do not alter gas orifice.
WARNING: The front of the fireplace gives off high temperatures that could ignite combustible material which is
kept close to the front of the unit.
Certified for installation in a bedroom or bedsitting room. In Canada must be installed with listed milli volt thermostat. In USA see local codes.
WARNING: Do not operate appliance with the glass front removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the glass
should be done by a licensed or qualified service person .
Vertical Venting in Cold Climates
In cold climate conditions where temperatures go below -10 degrees Celsius or 14
degrees Fahrenheit, 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.
NOTE: It is recommended that a Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detector be installed in or near bedrooms and on all levels of
your home. Place a detector about 15 feet (4.5 meters) outside the room that houses your gas appliance.

Gas Line Installation
This gas appliance should be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with
local building codes and with current CAN/CGA - B149.1 or .2 installation codes for
Gas Burning appliances and equipment in Canada and the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223 in the U.S.A.
1. The gas pipeline can be brought in through either the right or the left side of the
appliance. A knockout is provided at either location to allow for the gas pipe
installation and testing of any gas connection.
2. The gas control inlet is 3/8” NPT. Typical installation layout for rigid pipe is
shown at right.
3. When using copper or flex connector, use only approved fittings. Always
provide a union so that gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan
servicing. See gas specification for pressure details and ratings.
4. When a vertical section of gas pipe is required for the installation, a condensation trap is needed. See CAN/CGA-B149.1 or .2 for code details.
5. For natural gas, a minimum of 3/8” iron pipe with gas minimum pressure of 4.5
w.c. must be used for supply from the gas meter. Consult with the local gas
utility if any questions arise concerning pipe sizes.
6. A 1/8” NPT plugged tappings are accessible for test gauge connection both on
the inlet and outlet of the gas valve.
7. Turn the gas supply ON and check for leaks. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME
FOR THIS PURPOSE. Use an approved leak testing solution.
8. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
9. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
Note: The gas line connection may be made of 1/2” rigid pipe or an approved
flex connector. Since some municipalities have additional local codes, it is
always best to consult your local authorities and the current CAN/CGA - B149.1
or .2 installation code in Canada or the National Fuel Gas code ANSI Z223.1 in
the U.S.A.

For the state of Massachusetts a T-handle gas shut-off valve must
be used on a gas appliance. This T-handle gas shut-off valve must
be listed and approved by the state of Massachusetts. This is in reference to the state of Massachusetts state code CMR238.
Venting
This appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
This appliance is approved with Kingsman Flex Vent System (as listed in the manual) or Simpson Duravent flex pipe system
(#0991 Co-linear Vertical Termination and #0923GK Co-linear Adapter for Termination). This fireplace insert is approved is
approved for use with two - three inch diameter gas flex liners.
All venting lining products must be approved and installed according to the vent manufacturers installation instructions. All vent
liners must terminate in a rain cap to prevent debris and rain from entering the vent and possibly damaging the appliance or creating an unsafe condition. The area between the existing chimney and liner must be capped off for the same reasons as above and
to reduce the chances of venting problems and corrosion of the vent.
If this fireplace insert is to be used to replace an existing fireplace insert the existing vent liner must be of the proper size and if so
must be inspected for obstructions, damage and/or corrosion. Replacement must be done as necessary.
Before any vent liner is run through a chimney or other approved venting system, chimne
y must be inspected, cleaned and
repaired if necessary. A chimney which was used for a solid fuel fireplace must be professionally cleaned in order to reduce corrosion of the vent or other possible safety hazards.
