Pre-installation Questions and Answers

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 (su ch 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.

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 burni ng 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 an d 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.

Cleaning the Glass

During the first few fires, a white film may develop on the glass front, as part of the curing process. The glass should be
cleaned after the unit has cooled down or the film can bake on and become very difficult to remove. Use a non-abrasive
cleaner. Do not attempt to clean the glass while it is hot.

Operating Instructions

1. Be sure to read and understand all the instructions in this manual before operation of appliance.

2. Ensure all wiring is correct and properly enclosed to prevent possible shock.

3. Check for gas leaks.

4. Make sure the glass door is properly installed before operation. Never operate the appliance with the glass door
removed.

5. Make sure venting and termination cap are installed and unobstructed.

6. If brick or porcelain liners are used, ensure they are installed.

7. Verify that the pilot can be seen when lighting the appliance. If not, the log or rock placement is incorrect.

8. If the unit is turned off, you must wait a minimum of 60 seconds before re-lighting it.

All gas piping must be done in accordance with all
applicable codes CAN./CGA-BI49.1 or installation codes
or ANSI -Z223.1 as well as local codes.

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).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual 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).

The gas line to the fireplace insert should be of
adequate size to minimize the pressure drop and should
never be smaller than that supplied with the valve. A
ground joint union should be used as close to the valve
as possible to facilitate removal of the gas valve and
burner base pan.

Check that the gas piping is not supported by the gas
valve. A manual shut-off valve should be installed in the
gas line, inside the fireplace. All piping joints must be
tight and an approved non-hardening sealing compound
shall be used ( one which is suitable for future service).

valve must be used on a gas appliance. This T-handle
gas shut-off valve must be listed and approved by the

All venting lining products must be approved and
installed according to the vent manufactures 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.

This heater must be properly connected to a
venting system. This heater is equipped with

a vent safety spill switch shutoff system.

WARNING

Operation of this heater when not connected to a

properly installed and maintained venting

system or tampering with the vent safety spill switch

shutoff system can result in carbon monoxide (CO)

poisoning and possible death.

It is strongly recommended that the area between the
damper and the liner be blocked to prevent the
possibility of flue products entering the area between
the chimney and the vent liner.

CAUTION: Never use a flame to check for

leaks - use an approved leak test solution.

state of Massachusetts. This is in reference to the state
of Massachusetts state code CMR238.

7. VENTING

Before any vent liner is run through a masonry chimney
or other approved venting system the chimney 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 and other possible safety hazards.

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 it must be inspected for
obstructions, damage and/or corrosion. Replacement
must be done as necessary .

NOTE: Follow vent manufacturerʼs

installation instructions.

8

When installing the venting please take note of the

following:

1. A masonry chimney or other approved
venting system must be clean and inspected
for any damage which might make it unsafe.
Chimney must be constructed of non
combustible material.

2. Any chimney clean-outs must be tight fitting
as to minimize air leaks into the chimney.

3. Any flue damper must be blocked open or
removed to provide a minimum opening of
13 square inches and must not distort the
liner.

4. The liner is to be inserted from the top of the
chimney and through the damper opening.

5. The draft hood is to be removed from the
fireplace insert and attached to the liner using
(4) sheet metal screws and a clamp (See
Figure 1). It may not be necessary to remove
the draft hood if there is sufficient space in
the solid fuel fireplace to attach the liner with
the draft hood in place 19” is required.

6. If the lintel is wider than 12” (305mm) then
the height of the solid fuel fireplace must be
at least 25” (63.5 cm) to allow for an offset
elbow. (See Figure 2). If providing an

offset, do not collapse the flex pipe. This
will restrict the vent and cause a red flame
which will produce soot on glass.

7. If however the draft hood must be removed
then it must first be attached to the liner using
three (3) sheet metal screws and a clamp. The
fireplace insert can then be slid into place and
the draft hood should be located so that the
screw on the locating bracket mates with the
hole on the top centre front of the insert. The
locating bracket should be pulled as far
forward as it will go and be bolted into place
(a flashlight should be used to confirm that
the draft hood is flat on the top of the unit.
Once the draft hood is in place a long screw
driver or piece of rod must be used to rotate
the locking brackets so that the lock over top
the flanges on the side of the draft hood.

9. COMBUSTION AIR

Indoor combustion air must conform to the requirements
of the applicable code: Canada Installation Code
CAN/CGA-B149.1 or (USA.) National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI-Z223.1

In homes of normal construction, sufficient combustion air
can usually be obtained by air infiltration. The fireplace
insert must be installed in area that is free of excessive
dust and dirt and where ventilation is sufficient to provide
proper combustion of gas, proper venting and the
maintenance of safe operating temperatures. When
infiltration does not provide adequate air for combustion,
outside air shall be introduced as specified in the
installation codes.

The draft hood must be installed so as to be in the same
atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to
the appliance.

To check if there is adequate air for combustion perform
the following procedure: (See Figure 5)

I. Close all windows and doors.

2. Turn all exhaust fans on high.

3. Turn on fireplace insert.

4. To check for proper draft action a draft meter
with a minimum graduation of 0. 01 inches of
water column is required. The meter is to be
attached to the 1/4 inch aluminum tube
originating in the draft hood using high
temperature silicone (tubing should not be
allowed to contact glass and unit should be
allowed to run for a minimum of 10 minutes;
area of sensing tube will become quite hot).

A minimum draft pressure of. 02 inches of
water column is required to ensure that there
is no spillage at the draft diverter. This
number was arrived at through testing under
various severe conditions, actual vent
pressures under normal conditions will be
much higher. A draft pressure under. 02 will
indicate either a blocked vent, down draft,
adverse house de-pressurization or improper
venting.

• If there is not the proper draft then provide outside air

as instructed by the applicable code.

(Figure 5)

NOTE: DO NOT OBSTRUCT FLOW TO THE FRONT OF

THE FIREPLACE AS THIS COULD AFFECT

COMBUSTION AND BE A FIRE HAZARD. FAILURE TO

DO SO COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE,

INJURY AND/OR LOSS OF LIFE.

10. UNIT OPERATION & CHECK-OUT

Before trying to light the unit for the first time it is advisable
to purge the gas. Once the gas line is purged it is best to
wait a few minutes with a few open windows before trying
to light the fireplace. For detailed lighting instructions see
page 23.

Start-up Instructions:

1. Turn wall switch ( or thermostat) to the off
position.

2. Turn gas valve to “PILOT” and depress.

3. Press the red spark button repeatedly until a
steady pilot flame is present.

4. Keep the “PILOT” position on the gas valve
depressed for approximately 45 seconds.

5. Turn gas valve to the on position.

18

Sequence of operation:

1. Turn On/Off switch ( or thermostat) to the
on (call for heat) position.

2 Main burner lights.

3. If blower variable speed switch is in the
“On” position then the blower will turn on
automatically once the unit is hot enough.

4. Once the On/Off switch is turned off ( or

thermostat is satisfied) then the flame will
extinguish.

5. Blower will keep on running until the fire
place has cooled down.

Pressure ranges are as listed below:

Gas Supply Pressure (inches w.c.)

Min Normal Max
Natural Gas 4.5 7.0 9.0
L.P. (propane) 10.8 11.0 12.0

Manifold Pressure (inches w .c. )

Normal(HI) (LOW)

Natural Gas 3.5 1.6
L.P. (Propane) 10.0 6.3

Shut Down Instructions:

1. Turn On/Off switch ( or thermostat) to the
off position.

2. Depress gas valve and turn to “OFF”
position.

11. CHECK-OUT

Once installed, the unit should be operated at least
three (3) times to ensure that all is in working order.
NOTE: MANUFACTURING OILS AND PAINT WILL
SMOKE DURING INITIAL FIRING OF APPLIANCE.
OPEN WINDOWS FOR VENTILATION.

12. UNIT ADJUSTMENT

BEFORE LEAVING, THE INSTALLER SHOULD
MAKE THE FOLLOWING CHECKS:

(a) BTU/INPUT / GAS PRESSURE

The fireplace input is marked on the Rating Plate. The
gas valve comes factory pre-set to the proper rated
pressure and adjustment should not be necessary . If
there is any question of input then it may be necessary
to check manifold pressure.

Manifold pressure on the S.I.T. Nova valve can be
measured by loosening the slotted pressure taps on
the front bottom left of the valve. (‘E’ Inlet Pressure, and
‘A’ Manifold Pressure) and connecting a manometer.

The unit as shipped is equipped for operation for 0 to
4500 ft.

The main burner should be allowed to operate for 15 to
20 minutes before making any adjustment to the unit.

The air shutter should never be closed all the way. For
Natural Gas and Liquid Propane it is recommended
that the air shutter be set to Factory Specifications.
(See Page 4) .

If there is too much primary air then the flame will be
very blue with yellow tips and smaller flame height.

If there is too little primary air then the flame will be
yellow with orange/red tips on the back flames with dark
sooty elongated tips. In this condition the glass and logs
could show signs of soot accumulation within 10 to 20
minutes.

NOTE: With a properly burning flame there
will still be a certain level of sooting. It may be
necessary to clean the glass up to 3 times
during a cold season. The amount of cleaning
required depends on the amount that the fire
place is used.

(b) MAIN BURNER / PILOT

The pilot flame size is factory set. The pilot flame
should be at least 1.5 inches ( 4 cm) long. The flame
should be impinging on the pilot generator . Pilot size
can be adjusted through the pilot adjust screw. If the
pilot flame is too small and can not be adjusted through
the pilot adjust screw then there is the possibility of dirt
in the pilot orifice in which case the pilot orifice should

be cleaned or replaced.

19

13. MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to

disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring

errors can cause improper and dangerous

operation. Verify proper operation after
servicing.

Warning: INSURE THAT POWER IS
TURNED OFF TO THE FIREPLACE

BEFORE SERVICING.

WARNING Electrical Grounding Instructions

This appliance is equipped with a three prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against
shock hazard and should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this.

(a) Blower

This motor has been factory oiled and under normal
operating conditions should not require oiling.

Replacement of Blower

Remove glass (two screws behind upper grill), and
remove logs. Blower access panel is visible after rear
log is removed. Remove the screws (five on top, one on
each side) and lift from tabs, blower is then assessable
for servicing. Before re-installing blower access panel,
apply a bead of sealant Millpac to the bottom edge of
panel, (this is to assure blower does not interfere with
combustion). and than secure with screws.

(b) Burner/Pilot

(c) Logs

CAUTION: The logs can stay hot for several
hours after the fireplace is shut off. Serious
burns could result. It is recommended that the
fireplace be turned off for several hours before
cleaning is attempted.

DO NOT wash the logs if they have any accumulation
of soot on them. Washing the logs in any sort of
solution will just cause the soot to become imbedded in
the logs surface.

The best way to clean the logs is to blow off the soot
using compressed air at high velocity. It is also effective
to use a clean soft brush in the area of soot
accumulation. Vacuuming the log with a soft brush will
also work but do not forget to carefully wash the brush
before using it on anything else. If at all possible clean
the logs outside the home away from areas you do not
wish the soot to mark.

(d) Firebox and Heat Exchanger

To clean the firebox and heat exchanger use a vacuum.
For the firebox it is recommended to use a soft brush
on the end of the vacuum as not to damage any
painted surfaces. The heat exchanger may be more
difficult to clean but can still be cleaned with the
combination of a small brush and the vacuum.

(e) Glass Cleaning

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically.
During start-up condensation will form, and cause dust
and lint to cling to the surface of the glass.
Furthermore, the initial burn cures the paint but also
leads to the deposit of a filmy residue. It is therfore rec­ommended that the glass be cleaned two or three
times, initially, with non-abrasive common household
glass cleansers and warm water. After that, the glass
can be cleaned two or three times a season depending
on use.

The burner should be periodically cleaned by removing
any ember material and wiping off and vacuuming the
burner pan. At this time it is also recommended to
check the burner for any signs of corrosion which might
impair its operation and replace it if necessary.

The pilot should also be checked for signs of proper
operation and flame.

If replacement of pilot, generator,
thermocouple is necessary replace from top and
bottom of firebox bottom.

(Reference lower diagram Page 20)

Glass Replacement

REPLACEMENT GLASS

Only Robax ceramic or coated NeoCeram glass may be
used for replacement. The glass must be a minimum of
5mm thick.

Removal of the Glass Door

1. Remove the door by unscrewing the four (4) screws.

2. Once the top of the door is unlatched, pull it out­wards and up to unlatch the bottom.

3. To re-install, place the door into the fireplace front
and insert four (4) screws and tighten to seal it
against the firebox cavity.

4. To replace the class, clean all gasket materials from
the door frame. Using a high heat silicone (resistant
to 500º [260ºC]) apply a bead of approximately

20

1/32’ to all four sides of the frame and insert the
glass with a new gasket. The door frame should be
on a flat surface with a small amount of weight
pressing the glass into the silicon. Let everythng dry
for 15 to 20 minutes. The door can be re-installed by
following step 3.

Warning and Cautions.

• Do not clean when the glass is hot.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners.

• Using a substitute glass will void all product

warranties.

• Do not strike or abuse glass. Care must be

taken to avoid breakage of the glass.

• Do not operate this fireplace without the glass

front or with a broken glass.

WARNING No substitute materials may be

used, other than factory supplied components.

(f) Brass Trim and Surround

Warning The appliance area must be kept
clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapours and liquids.

All Brass and Painted surfaces should only be wiped off
with a soft non abrasive damp cloth ( a mild dish soap
can be used if necessary ).

DO NOT use brass or other metal polishes,
glass cleaners or any other abrasive cleaners
as this will mark and damage brass or painted
surfaces.

(g) Venting

Venting should be inspected yearly by a qualified
service technician and replaced if necessary . Draft
action should be tested for as outlined in Section 11 to
conform that conditions in the house have not changed
or that the vent has not become blocked or damaged.

(h) Valve and Burner Replacement

For valve replacement it is recommended that the
burner assembly be removed, this is done by removing
two 1/4” hex screws on the left and right side of the
firebox and lifting the complete burner assembly from
the unit and replacing defective component and re­installing. Check for gas leaks after replacing burner
assembly.
