PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
QUESTIONS TO ASK THE LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIAL
Correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire
hazards and perilous conditions that can arise when gas appliances function improperly. The appliance must be installed
per manufacturers’ instructions.
Gas appliance equipment and installations must conform to
appropriate local codes and applicable state and federal requirements. Familiarity with these requirements before installation is essential. Important considerations to discuss with
local building officials include:
1. Applicable codes (i.e. Uniform Mechanical Code, State or
Regional Gas Codes, National Fuel Gas Code)?
2. Local amendments?
3. Recognized testing lab: CSA / AGA.
4. Is a permit required - cost?
5. In some states or municipalities, a licensed gas fitter or
plumber may be required to install this appliance. Check
with your local building official for requirements in your
area (i.e. Is a license required for installation of gas supply
line)?
6. Maximum amount of gas pipe without a pressure test type of test required?
7. Are below grade penetrations of the gas line allowed?
8. Is concealed gas piping allowed?
9. Specific requirements of concealed fittings?
10. Is rigid pipe to appliance required?
11. Allowed piping materials?
12. Shut-off valve required within 4 feet of the firebox?
13. May the shut-off valve be concealed?
14. Rooms where the installation is not allowed?
In the absence of local codes, installation should conform to
the National Fuel Gas Code, also known at ANSI Z223.1NFPA 54.

CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
These appliances can be installed in most residential room configurations, parallel to a rear or adjacent wall, or in an alcove that allows for
the minimum clearances to combustible surfaces. Your local building
inspector should review your plans prior to installation.
When installing this appliance, provide adequate clearances around
air openings and adequate clearances for purposes of servicing and
proper operation.
As determined through the safety certification of this unit, a minimum clearance to combustible materials must be maintained around
specific areas of the gas appliance. (Refer to Figures 1 through 3)
The clearances listed here are minimum distances and only apply in
the configuration shown. Do not use clearances from one installation
configuration with clearances from another to obtain closer clearances.

MANUFACTURED (MOBILE) HOME REQUIREMENTS
Model L30 DVF-2 may be installed in an aftermarket permanently located, manufactured home, where not prohibited by
local codes. When installed in Manufactured Housing the following supplemental requirements must be met:
The appliance must be secured to the floor. Use the (3) ¼”-20x2
¾” lag bolts (which secured appliance pedestal base to the
wooden pallet) for securing appliance to the manufactured home
floor.
The appliance must be grounded to the chassis of the manufac-
tured home. Use a No. 8 or heavier copper wire at least 18" in
length.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
The structural integrity of the manufactured home floor, walls, ceiling
and roof must be maintained.
A manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform with the
Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR,
Part 3280, or, when such a standard is not applicable, the Standard

FLOOR PROTECTION
When installed directly on carpeting, •tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring, the appliance shall be
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width
and depth of the appliance (♦ see notes below).

Also see pipe manufacturers instructions for additional vent installation requirements.
Horizontal vent clearances
Vertical vent clearances
: 3“ minimum top 1“ minimum on bottom and sidewalls.
: 1” minimum.
Install vent support brackets every 4 feet of vertical pipe unless otherwise specified by vent manufacturer.
* Note: If using Propane Gas (LP), it may be necessary to install (as a minimum) 3 feet of vertical pipe from the appliance prior to an
offset to ensure optimum product performance. This may be necessary due to variations in vent configuration and other numerous
factors which affect exhaust flow and air delivery such as BTU value, ambient temperature, wind conditions, altitude, etc.

INSTALLATION
VENT RESTRICTOR RING INSTALLATION
Recommended Restrictor Ring Placement For Optimum Stove Performance
16 Feet or Higher,
Install Restrictor
Ring
If total vertical venting is
16 feet or higher, install 1
restrictor ring (included)
between the appliance
outlet / inlet collar and
first section of pipe.
Guideline for Installing Flue Restrictor
Ring in Co-Axial Direct-Vent Pipe
If the total vertical venting is 16 feet or
higher, installation of 1 restrictor ring is recommended to improve the performance and
flame asthetics of the appliance. Install the
restrictor ring between the appliance outlet /
inlet collar and the first section of pipe. Depending upon the vent configuration and
other variables, it may be necessary to adjust
the quantity and position of the restrictor
ring(s) to ensure proper operation of the appliance. Be advised, product performance
can be affected due to numerous factors
which affect exhaust flow and air delivery,
such as – gas BTU value, vent configuration, ambient temperature, altitude, etc.
Symptoms for Lack of Combustion Air
Remove restrictor ring(s) to increase combustion air delivery if the following symptoms
are present (first confirm input is correct, primary air shutter is properly adjusted, venting
system connections are secure and not
blocked):
♦ Flame appears yellow with black tips.
♦ Floating Flames (lazy, ill-defined, quiet,
may roll).
♦ Sooting.
♦ Pilot becomes yellow and appliance
shuts down.
Symptoms - Excessive Combustion Air
Install one or more restrictor rings to reduce
combustion air delivery if the following symptoms are present:
♦ Low Flame.
♦ Pilot pulls and appliance shuts down.
♦ Pilot flame ghosts
