For cold climate installations, seal all cracks
around your appliance with noncombustible
material and wherever cold air could enter
the room. It is especially important to insulate
outside chase cavity between studs and under
floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above
ground level. Gas line holes and other open­ings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced
fiberglass insulation.

If the fireplace is being installed on a cement
slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or
other raised platform can be placed underneath
to prevent conduction of cold transferring to
the fireplace and into the room. It also helps to
sheetrock inside surfaces and tape for maximum
air tightness and caulk firestops.

**Note: See Page 9, Step 1 for clearance requirements to the nailing ange

located at each side of the unit and any screw heads adjacent to it.

Hearth Extension - A hearth extension is not required with this appliance.

If a hearth extension is used, do not block the lower control compartment
door. Any hearth extension used is for appearance only and does not have
to conform to standard hearth extension installation requirements.

Shelf Height - To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface, use the

alternate rear vent outlet, the venting attached to the top vent should be
routed in a way to minimize obstructions to the space above the appliance.

Do not insulate the space between the appliance and the area above
it (see Figure 8). The minimum height from the base of the appliance to

the underside of combustible materials used to construct a utility shelf in
this fashion is shown in Figure 8.

The appliance should be mounted on a fully supported base extending
the full width and depth of the unit. The appliance may be located on
or near conventional construction materials. However, if installed on
combustible materials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a metal or wood
barrier covering the entire bottom surface must be used.

Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels

Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not
be allowed to encroach the area defined by the appliance front face (black
sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials to be positioned in front of

or overlapping the appliance face (see Figures 63 and 64 on Page 33).

Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim,
may be installed on the appliance face with these exceptions: they must not
cover any portion of the removable glass panel or control compartment.

Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the
depth of the mantel. See Figure 9. Mantels constructed of non-combustible
materials may be installed at any height above the appliance opening;
however, do not allow anything to hang below the fireplace hood.

Step 1. FRAMING

Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figures
13 and 14 on Pages 10 and 11 (Figure 14

applies to corner framing installations only).
All framing details must allow for a minimum
clearance to combustible framing members as
shown in Table 5 on Page 8.

If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level,
a solid continuous platform must be constructed
below the appliance.

Headers may be in direct contact with the appli­ance top spacers when they are bent up vertically
maintaining the 3" clearance to the fireplace top,
but must not be supported by them or notched
to fit around them. All construction above the
appliance must be self-supporting. DO NOT use
the appliance for structural support.

The fireplace should be secured to the side
framing members using the unit's nailing
flanges - one top and bottom on each side of
the fireplace front. See Figure 12. Use 8d nails
or their equivalent.

Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE

Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line to the left side
of the appliance as shown in Figure 15. Gas
lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. All appliances
are factory-equipped with a flexible gas line
connector and 1/2 inch shutoff valve. (See
Step 6 on Page 25).

Never use galvanized or plastic pipe. Refer
to Table 6 for proper sizing of the gas sup-
ply line, if black iron pipe is being used. Gas
lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. We recommend
that a qualified individual such as a plumber or
gas fitter be hired to correctly size and route
the gas supply line to the appliance. Installing
a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the
appliance involves numerous considerations of
materials, protection, sizing, locations, controls,
pressure, sediment, and more. Certainly no one
unfamiliar and unqualified should attempt sizing
or installing gas piping.

Notes:

• All appliances are factory-equipped with

a flexible gas line connector and 1/2 inch
shutoff valve (see Figure 50 on Page 25).

• SeeMassachusetts Requirements on Page
4 for additional requirements for installations

VENT COLLAR

Each of the unit's two vent collars are sealed
with a cover plate and a seal cap. The cover
plate and seal cap must be removed from the
cent collar being used. Refer to Figure 16 for
top vent usage and Figure 17 for rear, and
the following steps to prepare the appropriate
collar for use.

From the vent collar being used, remove the
screw securing the vent seal cap. Twist the cap
counterclockwise to disengage it from the vent
collar. Remove and discard the seal cap.

WARNING

Failure to reinstall and securely
tighten cover plate screws could
result in leakage of flue products
into the living space. Vent cover
plate and vent seal cap must
remain securely installed on
unused vent collar. Failure to do
so could result in leakage of flue
products into living space.

Step 4. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM

General Information

These instructions should be used as a
guideline and do not supersede local codes
in any way. Install venting according to local
codes, these instructions, the current National
Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or
the current standards of CAN/CSA-B149.1
in Canada.

Ensure clearances are in accordance with
local installation codes and the requirements
of the gas supplier.

When the top vent is being used, remove the

lintel cover plate by pushing it back towards
the rear of the fireplace by its front flange. It
can then be removed by pulling it forward.
Loosen the two screws in the keyhole slots of
the vent cover plate and remove the remaining
two vent cover plate securing screws. Remove
and discard the vent cover plate. Reinstall and
securely tighten all four cover plate screws.
Reinstall the lintel cover plate.

Figure 17

Dégagement conforme aux codes d'installation
locaux et aux exigences du foumisseunde gaz.

Use only approved venting components.
See Approved Vent Components on

Page 2.

These fireplaces must be vented directly
to the outside.

The vent system may not service multiple
appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The
vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed
wall (such as a chase). There is no requirement
for inspection openings in the enclosing wall at
any of the joints in the vent pipe.

Installation of Vent Restrictor

A vent restrictor may be needed with this
appliance. The restrictor is installed in the
appliance top flue outlet as shown in Figure
16, either before adding vent, from above, or
after installation of vent from below, within the
firebox. The restrictor is self securing through
a positive friction fit.

Figure 16

When the rear vent is being used, from inside
the firebox, remove the two screws securing the
baffle to the rear wall of the firebox, then remove
the baffle. Loosen the two screws in the keyhole
slots of the cover plate and remove the remaining
two cover plate securing screws. Remove and
discard the cover plate. Reinstall and securely
tighten all four cover plate screws. Re-secure
the baffle to the rear wall of the firebox.

VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)

See Figure 19 and Figures 29 through
31 on Page 16 and their associated
Vertical Vent Tables which illustrate the various
vertical venting configurations that are possible
for use with these appliances. Secure Vent™
pipe applications are shown in these Figures;
Secure Flex™ pipe may also be used. A Vertical
Vent Table summarizes each system’s minimum
and maximum vertical and horizontal length
values that can be used to design and install the
vent components in a variety of applications.

Both these vertical vent systems terminate
through the roof. The minimum vent height
above the roof and/or adjacent walls is speci­fied in ANSI Z223.1-(latest edition) (In Canada,
the current CAN/CSA-B149.1 installation code)
by major building codes. Always consult your
local codes for specific requirements. A general
guide to follow is the Gas Vent Rule (refer to

Figure 5 on Page 6).

Vertical (Straight) Installation

(Figure 19)

Determine the number of straight vent sec­tions required. 4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267
mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm)
and 46-1/2" (1181 mm) net section lengths
are available (see Tables on this page and
Pages 34 and 35 - Vent Sections). Plan the
vent lengths so that a joint does not occur at
the intersection of ceiling or roof joists. Refer
to the Vent Section Length Chart.

Figure 19

Vertical (Offset) Installation

Analyze the vent routing and determine the
quantities of vent sections and number of el­bows required. Refer to Vertical Vent Figures
and Tables on page 13 to select the type of
vertical installation desired. Vent sections are
available in net lengths of 4-1/2" (114 mm),
10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2"
(876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm). Refer to the
Vent Section Length Chart on page 13 for an
aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows are
available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer
to Figure 24 for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90
elbow dimensional specifications.

Where required, a telescopic vent section
(SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer
with an option in installing in tight and confined
spaces or where the vent run made up of fixed
length pieces develops a joint in a undesirable
location, or will not build up to the required
length. The SV4.5LA Telescopic Vent Section
has an effective length of from 1-1/2" (38 mm)
to 7-1/2" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted with
a locking inclined channel end (identical to a
normal vent section component) and a plain end
with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over the
locking channel end of a standard SV4.5 vent
component the required distance and secure
with three screws.

Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustible materials for all vertical elements.
Clearances for all horizontal elements are 3"
(76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides and 1"
(25 mm) on the bottom.

A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb line

from the ceiling above the appliance to locate
center of the vertical run. Cut and/or frame an
opening, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267mm x 267mm)
inside dimensions, about this center mark
(Figure 20 ).

Figure 20

B. Attach vent components to appliance

- Secure Vent SV4.5 direct vent system compo-

nents are unitized concentric pipe components
featuring positive twist lock connections (see
Figure 18 ).

14

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.

All of the appliances covered in this document
are fitted with collars having locking inclined
channels. The dimpled end of the vent com­ponents fit over the appliance collar to create
the positive twist lock connection.

Figure 21

Figure 22

To attach a vent component to the appliance
collar, align the dimpled end over the collar,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four
locking dimples are aligned with the inlet of
the four inclined channels on the collar (refer
to Figure 21 ). Push the vent component
against the collar until it fully engages, then
twist the component clockwise, running the
dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels. The
unitized design of the Secure Vent components
will engage and seal both the inner and outer
pipe without the need for sealant or screws.
If desired a #6 x 1/2" screw may be used at
the joint, but it is not required as the pipe will
securely lock when twisted.

Note: An elbow may also be attached to the
appliance collar. Attach in the same manner
as you would a vent section.

C. Attach vent components to each other

- Other vent sections may be added to the

previously installed section in accordance with
the requirements of the vertical vent figures
and tables. To add another vent component
to a length of vent run, align the dimpled end
over the inclined channel end of the previously
installed section, adjusting the radial alignment
until the four locking dimples are aligned with
the inlets of the four incline channels of the
previous section.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

Push the vent component against the previous
section until it fully engages, then twist the
component clockwise running the dimples down
and along the incline channels until they seat at
the end of the channels.This seating position

is indicated by the alignment of the arrow and
dimple as shown in Figure 22.

D. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling - When

using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer
at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use
SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space
above the ceiling level, the firestop/spacer
must be installed on the bottom side of the
ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the
firestop/spacer must be installed on the top side
of the joist. Route the vent sections through the
framed opening and secure the firestop/spacer
with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at
each corner. Remember to maintain 1" (25

mm) clearance to combustibles, framing
members, and attic or ceiling insulation
when running vertical chimney sections.
Attic insulation shield (96K94) may be used
to obtain the required clearances indicated
here. See installation accessories table on
pages 34 and 35.

E. Support the vertical vent run sections -

Note - Proper venting support is very important.
The weight of the vent must not be supported
by the fireplace in any degree.

Support the vertical portion of the venting
system every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace
vent outlet. One method of support is by utiliz­ing field provided support straps (conventional
plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to
the framing members with nails or screws.
Loop the tape around the vent, securing the
ends of the tape to the framing. If desired,
sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2" length may be
used to secure the support straps to the vent
pipe. See Figure 23.

run - At transition from or to a horizontal/in-

clined run, install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90
elbows in the same manner as the straight vent
sections. The elbows feature a twist section to
allow them to be routed about the center axis
of their initial collar section to align with the
required direction of the next vent run element.

Twist elbow sections in a clockwise direction
only so as to avoid the possiblity of unlocking
any of the previously connected vent sections.

See Figure 24.

Figure 24

G. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the

straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step C. Install support straps
every 5' (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined vent
runs using conventional plumber’s tape. It is

very important that the horizontal/inclined
run be maintained in a straight (no dips) and
slightly elevated plane in a direction away
from the fireplace 1/4" per foot (20 mm per

meter) of horizontal vent. Use a carpenter’s
level to measure from a constant surface and
adjust the support straps as necessary.

I. Install the roof flashing - Extend the vent
sections through the roof structure. Install the
roof flashing over the vent section and posi­tion such that the vent column rises vertically
(use carpenters level) (Figure 26 ). Nail along
perimeter to secure flashing or adjust roofing
to overlap the flashing edges at top and sides
only and trim where necessary. Seal the top
and both sides of the flashing with waterproof
caulking.

Figure 27

K. Install the vertical termination - The final
step involves installation of the SV4.5CGV-1
Vertical Termination. Extend the vent sections
to the height as shown in the "Vertical vent ter­mination section" on page 5. The SV4.5CGV-1
Vertical Termination (Figure 28 ) installs in the
exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the termination over the end of
the previously installed section, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples
of the termination are aligned with the inlets of
the four incline channels of the last vent section.
Push the termination down until it fully engages,
then twist the termination clockwise running the
dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels.

It is important to maintain the required clear­ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.

H. Frame roof opening - Identify location for

vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening per
Roof Framing Chart and Figure 25.

Figure 26

J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the
vent/flashing joint. See Figure 27. Loosen the
storm collar screw. Slide collar down until it
meets the top of the flashing. Tighten the adjust­ing screw. Apply non-combustible caulking or
mastic around the circumference of the joint
to provide a water tight seal.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

Figure 28

If the vent system extends more than 5' (1.5
m) above the roof flashing, stabilizers may be
necessary. Additional screws may be used at
section joints for added stability. Guide wires
may be attached to the joint for additional sup­port on multiple joint configurations.

Note: Secure Vent (rigid vent pipe) is shown
in the figures; Secure Flex (flexible vent pipe)
may also be used.

Note: It is very important that the horizontal/in­clined run be maintained in a straight (no dips)
and recommended to be in a slightly elevated
plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of

1/4" rise per foot (20 mm per meter) which is
ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are
smaller are acceptable all the way down to at
or near level.

Note: SV4.5VF (Secure Vent), SF4.5VF (Secure
Flex) firestop/spacer must be used anytime vent
pipe passes through a combustible floor or ceil­ing. SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure
Flex)firestop/spacer must be used anytime vent
pipe passes through a combustible wall.

Note: Two 45 degree elbows may be used in
place of one 90 degree elbow. The same rise
to run ratios, as shown in the venting figures
for 90 elbows, must be followed if 45 degree
elbows are used.

Note: An elbow is acceptable as 1 foot of
vertical rise, except where an elbow is the
only vertical component in the system. (See
Figure 38 on page 20 ).

TYPICAL HORIZONTAL VENT INSTALLATION

HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL)
TERMINATION SYSTEM

Figures 34, and Figures 38 to 43 on pages
20 to 22 and their associated Horizontal Vent

Table illustrate the various horizontal venting
configurations that are possible for use with
these appliances. Secure Vent pipe applications
are shown in these figures; Secure Flex pipe
may also be used. A Horizontal Vent Table sum­marizes each system’s minimum and maximum
vertical and horizontal length values that can be
used to design and install the vent components
in a variety of applications.

Both of these horizontal vent systems terminate
through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or
prohibit terminating in specific areas. Refer to

Figure 8 on page 7 for location guidelines.
Secure Vent SV4.5 direct vent system components

are unitized concentric pipe components featuring
positive twist lock connection, (refer to Figure 21
on page 14). All of the appliances covered in this
document are fitted with collars having locking
inclined channels. The dimpled end of the vent
components fit over the appliance collar to create
the positive twist lock connection.

A. Plan the vent run -
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
types and quantities of sections required
4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572
mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm) net
section lengths are available. It is recommended
that you plan the venting so that a joint does not
occur in the ceiling or roof joists. Allow for elbows
as indicated in Figure 24 on page 15.

Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustibles on the vertical sections. Clearances
for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76 mm) on top, 1" (25
mm) on sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom.

B. Frame exterior wall opening -

Locate the center of the vent outlet on the ex­terior wall according to the dimensions shown
in Figure 9 on page 8. Cut and/or frame an
opening, 10-1/2" x 12-1/8" (267 mm x 308mm)
inside dimensions, about this center.

C. Frame ceiling opening - If the vertical route
is to penetrate a ceiling, use plumb line to locate
the center above the appliance. Cut and/or frame
an opening, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267 mm x 267
mm) inside dimensions, about this center (refer
to Figure 20 on page 14 ).

D. Attach vent components to appliance - To
attach a vent component to the appliance collar,
align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples are
aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels
on the collar (refer to Figure 21 on page 14).

Push the vent component against the collar until it
fully engages, then twist the component clockwise,
running the dimples down and along the incline chan­nels until they seat at the end of the channels.

Figure 34

The unitized design of the Secure Vent compo-
nents will engage and seal both the inner and
outer pipe elements with the same procedure.
Sealant and securing screws are not required.

Note: An elbow may also be attached to the
appliance collar. Attach in the same manner
as you would a vent section.

E. Attach vent components to each other - Other
vent sections may be added to the previously
installed section in accordance with the require­ments of the vent tables. To add another vent
component to a length of vent run, align the
dimpled end of the component over the inclined
channel end of the previously installed section,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four lock­ing dimples are aligned with the inlets of the four
incline channels of the previous section. Push
the vent component against the previous section
until it fully engages, then twist the component
clockwise running the dimples down and along
the incline channels until they seat at the end of
the channels.This seating position is indicated

by the alignment of the arrow and dimple as
shown in Figure 22 on page 14.

F. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling -

When using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/
spacer at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex,
use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living
space above the ceiling level, the firestop/
spacer must be installed on the bottom side of
the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling,
the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the
top side of the joist. Route the vent sections
through the framed opening and secure the
firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate
fasteners at each corner.

Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance
to combustibles, framing members, and attic
or ceiling insulation when running vertical
chimney sections.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

G. Support the vertical run sections -
On the vertical run, support the venting sys­tem every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace
vent outlet with field provided support straps
(Plumber's tape). Attach the straps to the vent
pipe and secure to the framing members with
nails or screws. See Figure 23 on page 14.

H. Change vent direction - At transition from or
to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45
and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as
the straight vent sections. The elbows feature
a twist section to allow them to be routed about
the center axis of their initial collar section to
align with the required direction of the next
vent run element. Twist elbow sections in a

clockwise direction only so as to avoid the
possiblity of unlocking any of the previously
connected vent sections. See Figure 24 on
page 15.

I. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the

straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step E. Install support straps
every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined
vent runs using conventional plumber’s tape.
See Figure 34, it is very important that the

horizontal/inclined run be maintained in a
straight (no dips) and recommended to be in
a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away
from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20 mm

per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot
run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the
way down to at or near level. Use a carpenter’s
level to measure from a constant surface and
adjust the support straps as necessary.

It is important to maintain the required clear­ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs

described in Step B. Assemble the vent system
to point where the terminus of the last section
is within 7 in. (178 mm) to 11-1/4 in. (286
mm) inboard of the exterior surface to which
the SV4.5 HT termination is to be attached, see
Figure 36. If the terminus of the last section
is not within this distance, use the telescopic
vent section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section.
For wall thicknesses greater than that shown in
Figure 36, refer to Table 8 on page 20. This table
lists the additional venting components needed
(in addition to the termination and adapter) for
a particular range of wall thicknesses.

K. Attach termination adapter - Attach the
adapter (adapter - SV4.5RCH - provided with the
termination) to the vent section or telescoping
vent section), elbow or appliance collar as shown
in Figure 35 in the same manner as any SV4.5
vent component (refer to Step E).

L. Install Firestop/Spacer at exterior wall

- When using the square termination, install

SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex)
Firestop/Spacer over the opening at the exterior
side of the framing, long side up, with the 3 inch
spacer clearance at the top as shown in Figure

35, and nail into place.

Figure 35

Installing the Square Horizontal Termination (SV4.5HT-2)

(The Firestop/Spacer may also be installed over
the opening at the interior side of the framing.)

M. Install the desired termination -

1. Install the square termination (SV4.5HT-

2)- For the last step , from outside the exterior

wall, slide the collars of the termination onto
the adapter (the outer over the outer and the
inner inside the inner) until the termination
seats against the exterior wall surface to which
it will be attached. Orient the housing of the
termination with the arrow pointed upwards.
Secure the termination to the exterior wall. The

horizontal termination must not be recessed
into the exterior wall or siding by more than

the 1-1/4" (32 mm) as shown in Figure 36.

The SVHRK cap is for use with flex vent
The vertical distance between the inlet and outlet
of the cap is 28 in. (711 mm). pipe.

IMPORTANT: The vent termination is hot
while in operation and for a period of
time following the use of the fireplace.
To prevent contact with hot surfaces,
we recommend the use of a Termina-
tion Guard. See Page 35. This can be
purchased at your local dealer.

Figure 36

Horizontal terminations have been designed to perform in a wide range of weather
conditions. Our terminations meet or exceed industry standards.

When selecting the locations of your horizontal terminations, do not place the termination
where water from eaves and adjoining rooflines may create a heavy flow of cascading water
onto the termination cap. If the cap must be placed where the possibility of cascading water
exists, it is the responsibility of the builder to direct the water away from the termination
cap by using gutters or other means.

Take care to carefully follow the installation instructions for the termination, including the
use of silicone caulking where required.

HORIZONTAL VENT FIGURES/TABLES

Note: Secure Vent components (rigid vent pipe and terminal) are
shown in the figures; Secure Flex components (flexible vent pipe and
terminal) may also be used.

Note: Two 45 degree elbows may be used in place of one 90 degree
elbow. The same rise to run ratios, as shown in the venting figures for
90 elbows, must be followed if 45 degree elbows are used.

Note: It is very important that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained

in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be in a slightly elevated
plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20

mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are
smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or near level.

Note: SV4.5VF (Secure Vent), SF4.5VF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer must
be used anytime vent pipe passes through a combustible floor or ceiling.
SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer must be
used anytime vent pipe passes through a combustible wall.

WARNING

Under no circumstances, may separate sections of
concentric flexible vent pipe be joined together.

VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL VENTING USING

SECURE FLEX KITS AND COMPONENTS

Secure Flex venting kits and components may
be used in any venting application where rigid
Secure Vent (SV4.5) direct vent components
can be used. All restrictions, clearances and
allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply
to the flexible venting. Secure Flex kits may

not be modified; also, under no circumstances
may separate sections of flex pipe be joined
together. Secure Flex kits may be added to
the end of a vent run made up of rigid Secure
Vent (SV4.5) vent sections provided that doing

so does not violate any of the venting length,
height, routing, horizontal to vertical ratio re­quirements or clearance considerations detailed
in this manual.

Secure Flex kits come with an included adapter
that can be fitted to the appliance collar or the
inclined channel end of the last Secure Vent
(SV4.5) vent section in a rigid system in the
exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the dimpled end of the adapter
over the previously installed section or appliance
collar, adjusting the radial alignment until the
four locking dimples of the adapter are aligned
with the inlets of the four incline channels of
the last vent section or collar. Push on the
adapter until it fully engages, then twist the
adapter clockwise running the dimples down
and along the incline channels until they seat
at the end of the channels.

Attach the flexible vent to the adapter as fol­lows (see Figure 44):

A. Install the Inner Flex Pipe -

1. Install the small gear clamp loosely around

the inner flexible vent pipe, push it back out
of the way.

2. Apply a bead of Mill-Pac Black (700°F) high
temperature sealant - Catalog No. 10K81) to

the inner adapter collar, approximately 1/2 inch
from the end.

3. Pull and extend the inner flexible vent pipe.

4. Slide the inner flex pipe over the adapter

collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely
engages the adapter collar to a distance of
1-3/4 inches from the end, and that it is free
from damage or tears.

5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it
fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter
inner collar approximately 3/4 inch from the
end of the flex.

6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart
through the flexible vent pipe and into the adapter
collar just below the gear clamp to provide ad­ditional security to the connection.

B. Install the Outer Flex Pipe -

1. Install the large gear clamp loosely around

the outer flexible vent pipe, push it back out
of the way.

Figure 44

2. Apply a bead of Mill-Pac Black (700°F) high
temperature sealant - Catalog No. 10K81) to

the outer adapter collar; to the grooves of the
collar which extend approximately 1 inch from
the end and to the flat surface, approximately
1-3/8 inches from the end.

3. Pull and extend the outer flexible vent pipe.

4. Slide the outer flex pipe over the adapter

collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely
engages the adapter collar to a distance of 1³⁄₄
inches from the end, and that it is free from
damage or tears.

5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it
fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter
outer collar approximately 3/4 inch from the
end of the flex.

6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart
through the flexible vent pipe and into the adapter
collar just below the gear clamp to provide ad­ditional security to the connection.

C. Route Flex Vent -
Ensure that the flex vent is properly routed to
provide the required clearance. Do Not allow
the flexible vent to bend in a radius tighter than
5" (127 mm). Refer to Figure 45. Support
horizontal sections of flex with metal straps at
2 foot (0.61 m) intervals.

D. Install Firestop/Spacers at ceilings and walls -
When Secure Flex penetrates a wall or ceiling,
a firestop/spacer is required: use the SF4.5 VF
firestop/spacer for ceilings and the SF4.5 HF
firestop/spacer for walls.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

See the appropriate sections and figures shown
throughout the venting section for their instal­lation requirments.

Figure 45

E. Attach Flex Vent to Termination -
Secure Flex components can be purchased

separately and attached to bulk lengths of
Secure Flex flexible tubing cut to size at the job
site. Secure the flexible vent to the Secure Flex
terminations in the same manner (see Figure

44 ) as it was attached to the adapter.

Note: Secure Flex vent must be attached
to Secure Flex terminations only. DO NOT
substitute Secure Vent terminations or the
Secure Vent adapter for Secure Flex compo­nents. The collars of Secure Flex terminations
and adapters have a different circumference
than that used with the Secure Vent pipe.
Additionally, Secure Flex components have
an extended length center tube for use in
attaching the flexible vent.

BLOWER KIT

FBK-100 and FBK-200 Kits

(See Figure 47 on page 24) -

An electrical outlet box is provided for the
installation of the FBK-100, FBK-200 forced air
blower kits. Electrical power must be provided
to this box to operate these blowers. Install the
blower kits according to the installation instruc­tions provided with the kits.

Figure 49 - J-BOX WIRING

FBK-250 Blower Kit

(See Figure 48 on page 24)-

An electrical outlet box is provided for the
installation of the FBK-250 forced air blower
kit. Electrical power must be provided to this
box to operate these blowers. Install the blower
kit according to the installation instructions
provided with the kit.

Note: The tab connecting the receptacles of the
outlet box must be broken in FBK-100 and FBK­200 blower kit applications. See Figure 49.

Step 7. CONNECTING GAS LINE

Make gas line connections. All codes require a
shut-off valve mounted in the supply line. Figure
50 illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. The flex-line method is acceptable
in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements
vary depending on locality. Installation must
be in compliance with local codes. A sediment
trap is recommended in the gas piping within
the home to prevent moisture and debris in the
line from damaging the valve.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

To access the valve open the lower control
compartment door (see Figure 51 ) by pushing
in the right top corner of the door. (The door
is hinged at the bottom.) Remove the bottom
compartment door by sliding the hinge pin,
located at the door’s left side, to the right until
it disengages from the left corner post hole.
Pull the door diagonally to the left, away from
the fireplace.

Remove the modesty panel. To remove the
modesty panel, slide the panel forward until
it contacts the cabinet bottom panel, then lift
straight up and tilt forward.

Remove the modesty panel carefully, so that
none of the wires become loose or discon­nected.

The millivolt control valve has a 3/8"
(10 mm) NPT thread inlet port. The electronic
control valve has a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT thread
inlet port and is fitted with a 1/2" x 3/8" (13 mm x
10 mm) NPT fitting.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate
tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane
resistant compounds are used in propane
applications).

All codes require a shut-off valve mounted
in the supply line. The orientation of the
shut-off valve should face the front. Figure
50 illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. A sediment Trap is recommended
to prevent moisture and debris in the gas line
for damaging the valve.

The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting
or floating. Flame should be blue in color with
traces of orange at the outer edge.

The top 3/8" (10 mm) at the pilot generator
(thermopile) and the top 1/8" minimum (tip)
of the quick drop out thermocouple should be
engulfed in the pilot flame.

The flame should project 1" (25 mm) beyond the
hood at all three ports (see Figure 52). Replace
logs if removed for pilot inspection.

To light the burner; turn “ON” the remote wall
switch and rotate the gas valve control knob
counterclockwise to the “ON” position (“ON”
will be at the top side of the valve).

C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, be

sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.

Step 8. VERIFYING APPLIANCE OPERA­TION

Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks, us­ing a gas leak test solution (also referred to as
bubble leak solution).

Note: Using a soapy water solution is an
effective leak test solution but it is not recom­mended, because the soap residue that is left
on the pipes/fittings can result in corrosion
over time.

A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting

B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas

or in the Care and Operation Instructions
manual).

leak test solution to check for leaks. If bubbles
are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the
gas control knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF”
position. Either tighten or refasten the leaking
connection, then retest as described above.

With gas line installed run initial system
checkout before closing up the front of the unit.
Follow the pilot lighting instructions provided
in the Care and Operation Instructions manual.
For piezo igniter location see Figure 46 on
Page 24 (millivolt appliances only).

Note: Lighting Instructions are also found on
the literature tag tied to the gas piping next
to the gas valve. To access the tag, open the
lower control compartment door (Figure 51)
by pushing in simultaneously the left and right
top corners of the door. (The door is hinged at
the bottom). Remove the bottom compartment
door by sliding the hinge pin, located at the
door’s left side, to the right until it disengages
from the left corner post hole. Remove the
modesty panel. To remove the modesty panel,
slide the panel forward until it contacts the
cabinet bottom panel, then lift straight up and
tilt forward. Remove the modesty panel care­fully, so that none of the wires become loose
or disconnected.

When first lighting the appliance, it will take a
few minutes for the line to purge itself of air.
Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner
will light and operate as indicated in the instruc­tion manual.

Subsequent lighting of the appliance will not
require such purging. Inspect the pilot flame (re­move logs, if necessary, handling carefully).

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

Figure 52

Electronic Appliance Checkout

To light the burner, turn ‘ON’ the unit mounted
On/Off switch or the optional remote wall switch.

Step 9. INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE,

Glowing Embers

GLOWING EMBERS AND LOGS

NOTE: Turn off all electricity to the appliance
before you install volcanic stone, embers and
logs. DO NOT attempt to install the logs until the
appliance installation has been completed, the
gas line connected and tested for leaks and the
initial burner operation has been checked out.

Step 1. Remove the appliance front door (see
Removing Glass Encloslure panel on page 31.

Step 2. Install decorative volcanic stone -
Sprinkle the decorative volcanic stone in a pleas­ing pattern. The volcanic stone should be placed
directly on top of the firebox bottom, along the
front and to the back at the right and left sides of
the burner. Position any optional ceramic fiber
liners before placing the stone. Logs should be
positioned after the volcanic stone.

Note: This appliance is provided with enough
Glowing Embers for several applications, do
not feel compelled to use all that is in a new
bag. For best glowing effect, replace the ember
material annually. Replacement Glowing Em­bers are available (Catalog Number 88L53).

Glowing Embers

Separate into Quarter

Size (separate) Pieces

Step 3. Separate the Glowing Ember
(Rockwool) into pieces about the size of a
quarter (Figure 54 ). Keep the pieces fluffed
up, not matted. Distribute these pieces over
the front surface of the burner, as shown in
Figure 55. Do not use more than is neces­sary. When properly positioned, the Glowing
Embers will cover approximately 65% of the
front burner and with no appreciable gaps or
openings. Ensure that the main burner ports
remain uncovered by the ember material.

Figure 55

Step 4. Placement of Logs -

All top logs that rest on lower logs, do so over
notches, indents or nubs. Proper log placement
is critical to prevent sooting. Logs should be
placed in the gaps between the flame peaks and
should be positioned so they do not impinge
the flames.

Step 5. Position the individual logs as shown
in Figures 56 and 57. Logs should be placed
in the order shown. All logs that have notches
to fit over the grate tines should be positioned
with these notches directly against the grate.

Handle logs carefully to prevent breakage.

Proper log placement is critical to encourage
outstanding flame appearance and prevent
sooting. When positioned properly as shown,
logs will be positioned between flame peaks
and will not impinge any flames.

Refer to Figure 56 for EDV3530 Series appli­ances and to Figure 57 for EDV4035 & EDV4540
Series appliances.

remain hot up to one hour after gas
supply is turned off. Handle only
when logs are cool. Turn off all
electricity to the appliance before
you install grate, volcanic stone,
vermiculite, embers and logs.

•

This appliance is not designed
to burn wood. Any attempt to do so
could cause irreparable damage to
the appliance and prove hazardous
to your safety.

•

If logs are not installed
according to the log installation
instructions, flame impingement
and improper combustion could
occur and result in soot and/or
excessive production of carbon
monoxide (CO), a colorless,
odorless, toxic gas.

Step 11. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

Flame Appearance and sooting

Proper flame appearance is a flame which is
blue at the base and becomes yellowish-orange
in the body of the flame.

When the appliance is first lit, the entire
flame may be blue and will gradually turn
yellowish-orange during the first 15 minutes
of operation. If the flame remains blue, or if
the flame is orange with evidence of sooting
(black tip), the air shutter opening may need
to be adjusted.

If the air shutter opening is closed too far,
sooting may develop. Sooting is indicated by
black puffs developing at the tips of very long
orange flames. Sooting results in black deposits
forming on the logs, appliance inside surfaces
and on exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent
termination.

Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion
in the flames and lack of combustion air enter­ing the air shutter opening. To achieve a warm
yellowish-orange flame with an orange body
that does not soot, the shutter opening must be
adjusted between these two extremes.

Air Shutter Adjustment Guidelines

• Ifthereissmokeorsootpresent,rstcheck

the log set positioning to ensure that the
flames are not impinging on any of the logs.
