the fireplace outlet.

Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM

General Information

-B149.2 in Canada.

These ﬁreplaces are designed, tested and listed for operation and installation with, and only with, Secure Vent™ (SV8) Direct Vent System Components, manufactured by Security Chimneys International. These approved vent system components are labeled for identiﬁcation. DO NOT use any other manufacturer's vent components with these appliances.

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 enclosing 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.

The vertical vent system terminates 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-1 B149 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 4

on Page 6).

For vertical venting from 6 feet to 12 feet or more, from the top of the ﬁreplace to the top of the termination, the installation of a vent restrictor is required.

Install a vent restrictor (provided) in the appliance ﬂue outlet as shown in Figure 12A. It is held in place by friction, only.

Vertical (Straight) Installation (Figure 13)

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 461/2" (1181 mm) net section lengths are available. Refer to the Vent Section Length Chart.

Select Venting System - Horizontal or Vertical

With the appliance secured in framing, determine vent routing and identify the exterior termination location. The following sections describe vertical (roof) and horizontal (exterior wall) vent applications. Refer to the section relating to your installation. A list of

approved venting components is shown on Pages 24 and 25.

VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)

Figures 12A, 12B on Page 10 and Figures 22 through 24 on Pages 13 and 14 and their asso-

ciated Vertical Vent Tables illustrate the various vertical venting conﬁgurations that are possible for use with these appliances. 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.

Figure 12A

For vertical venting above 12 feet, in addition to the restrictor (Figure 12A) an air inlet bafﬂe has to be installed over the grate as shown in Figure 12B.

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 Pages 13 and 14 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 this Page for an aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows are available in 90° and 45° conﬁgurations. Refer to Figure 17 on Page 12 for the SV8 E45 and SV8 E90 elbow dimensional speciﬁcations.

Where required, a telescopic vent section (SV8LA) 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 SV8LA Telescopic Vent Section has an effective length of from 1-1/2" (38 mm) to 6-3/4" (171 mm). The SV8LA is ﬁtted with a dimpled end (identical to a normal vent section component) and a plain end with 3 pilot holes. Slip the dimpled end over the locking channel end of a standard SV8 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, 13" x 13" (330 mm x 330 mm) inside dimensions, about this center mark

(Figure 14).

B. Attach vent components to appliance

- Secure Vent SV8 direct vent system compo-

nents are unitized concentric pipe components featuring positive twist lock connections (see Figure 15).

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 15

Figure 16

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.

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 16.

D. Install ﬁrestop/spacer at ceiling - When

using Secure Vent, use SV8BF ﬁrestop/spacer at ceiling joists. 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 (H3908) may be used to obtain the required clearances indicated here. See installation accessories on Pages 24 and 25. The gap between the vent pipe and a vertical ﬁrestop can be sealed with non-combustible caulking.

E. Support the vertical vent run sections -

F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined run - At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined

run, install the SV8 E45 and SV8 E90 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 possibility of unlocking any of the previously connected vent sections. See

Figure 17.

Figure 17

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 3' (914 mm) 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 recommend to be in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away from the ﬁreplace

1/4" per foot (20 mm per meter) which is ideal, through 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.

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 15). 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 - 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 (2.4 m) 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. Strap 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.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

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 18 on Page 13.

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 19 ). 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 20

K. Install the vertical termination - The ﬁnal step involves installation of the Vertical Termination. Extend the vent sections to the height as shown in the "Vertical vent termination section" on Page 6. The Vertical Termination (Figure

21) 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.

VERTICAL VENT FIGURES/TABLES

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

Z\v" 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: SV8BF (Secure Vent) ﬁrestop/spacer must be used anytime vent pipe passes through a combustible ﬂoor or ceiling. SV8HF (Secure Vent) 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.

J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm collar, supplied with the ﬂashing, over the vent/ﬂashing joint. See Figure 20. 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.

Figure 19

Figure 21

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.

HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL) TERMINATION SYSTEM

Figures 25, 28, 29 and 30 on Pages 15 , 17 and 18 and their associated Horizontal Vent

Table illustrate the various horizontal venting conﬁgurations that are possible for use with these appliances. 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.

The horizontal vent system terminates 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 SV8 direct vent system compo-

nents are unitized concentric pipe components featuring positive twist lock connection, (refer to Figure 16 on Page 12). 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. Make allowances for elbows as indicated in Figure 17 on Page 12.

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, 15" x 13" (381 mm x 330 mm) inside dimensions, with 9" above center and 7" below 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, 13" x 13" (330 mm x 330 mm) inside dimensions, about this center (refer to Figure 14 on Page 11).

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

15 on Page 12).

Figure 25

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 elements with the same procedure. Sealant and securing screws are not required.

E. Attach vent components to each other

- Other vent sections may be added to the previ-

ously 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 16 on

Page 12.

F. Install ﬁrestop/spacer at ceiling - When using Secure Vent, use SV8BF ﬁrestop/ spacer at ceiling joists. 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.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

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

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.

H. Change vent direction - At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV8E45 and SV8E90 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 possibility of unlocking any of the previously connected vent sections (see Figure 17 on Page 12).

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 3 feet (1914 mm) along horizontal/inclined vent runs using conventional plumber’s tape. See Figure 25, 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.

J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not

previously measured, locate the center of the vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as described in Step B. Assemble the vent system to point where the terminus of the last section is within 5 in. (127 mm) to 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) inboard of the exterior surface to which the SV8HTS termination is to be attached, see Figure 27. If the terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use the telescopic vent section SV8LA, as the last vent section. For wall thicknesses greater than that shown in Figure 27, refer to Table 6 on Page 17. 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 - SV8RCH - provided with the termination) to the vent section or telescoping vent section), or elbow as shown in Figure 26 in the same manner as any SV vent component (refer to Step E).

L. Install Firestop/Spacer at exterior wall

- When using the square termination, install

SV8HF 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 26, and nail into place.

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

M. Install the square termination (SV8HTS)- 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 27.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING

Handle this glass with extreme care! Glass is susceptible to damage – Do not scratch or handle roughly while reinstalling the glass door frame.

WARNING

Do not attempt to substitute the materials used on this door, or replace cracked or broken glass with any materials other than those provided by the appliance manufacturer.

The gas control valve is located on the right side of the unit.

To access the valve, remove the front door assembly and the access plate (refer to Figure 34).

The control valves have a 3/8" (10 mm) NPT thread inlet port.

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

Test all connections for gas leaks (Factory and ﬁeld):

WARNING

Never use an open ﬂame to check for leaks.

D. Turn on burner then observe the individual

tongues of ﬂame on the burner. Make sure all ports are open and producing ﬂame evenly across the burner. If any ports are blocked, or partially blocked, clean out the ports.

WARNING

The glass door of this appliance must only be replaced as a complete unit as provided by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to replace broken, cracked or chipped glass separately.

Refer to Figure 37 on Page 21 and remove the front glass door assembly as follows:

To remove the ﬁrescreens, lift up the center of the rod to disengage it from the center bracket, bend down at center, hold left side with hand until it disengages from left side, being careful not to scratch paint. Slowly remove the rod from the right side.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, unfasten two (2) screws located at the top of the glass frame.

Tilt the glass frame at the top away from the unit. Lift it carefully off the bottom door track and set the door aside, protecting it from inadvertent damage.

Step 6. CONNECTING GAS LINE

Make gas line connections. Codes require a shut-off valve mounted in the supply line. Figure 33 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.

These appliances are equipped with a gas ﬂex line for use (where permitted) in connecting the unit to the gas line. A gas ﬂex line is provided to aid in attaching the direct vent appliance to the gas supply. The gas ﬂex line can only be used where local codes permit. See Figure 33 for ﬂex line description. The ﬂex line is rated for both natural and propane gas. A manual shut off valve is also provided with the ﬂex line.

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 (50% dish soap, 50% water) 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

instructions label in control compartment or homeowner's manual).

B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas

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.

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

sure to rinse off the leak testing solution,

Figure 33 - GAS CONNECTION

E. Re-install the access plate, making certain the gasket has not been damaged.

Step 7. INSTALLING CERAMIC PANELS, LOGS AND GLOWING EMBERS

The logs are packaged in a carton and shipped separately. Plastic bags with glowing embers, lava rock and vermiculite are also included. Refer to the Ceramic Panel and Log Set Placement Supplement for detailed placement instructions.

Note: The gas supply line must be installed in accordance with building codes by a qualiﬁed installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas ﬁtter.

*A Sediment Trap is recommended to prevent moisture and debris in gas line from damaging the valve.

Step 8. CHECKING APPLIANCE OPERATION

With gas line installed run initial system checkout before closing up the front of the unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions provided For piezo igniter location refer to Figure 34 (millivolt appliances only).

Note: Lighting Instructions are also found on the literature tag tied to the bracket above the gas valve. To access the tag, reach into the right side opening.

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).

Millivolt Appliance Checkout

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 35). Replace logs if removed for pilot inspection.

Figure 36

Step 9. INSTALLING THE GLASS DOOR

Retrieve the glass door. Visually inspect the gasket on the backside of the frame. Gasket surface must be clean, free of irregularities and seated ﬁrmly.

Position the door in front of the ﬁrebox opening with the top of the door held away from the ﬁreplace (Figure 37). Lower the bottom of the door assembly on the bottom door track and set on padded surface. Pivot the door up after engaging and centering in the base channel.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the door frame to the door latch with the two (2) screws. The latch should pull forward to engage the door frame.

WARNING

Figure 37 INSTALLING THE GLASS DOOR

WARNING

Handle this glass with extreme care! The glass panel is susceptible to damage — do not scratch while handling or while re-installing the glass door frame.

To light the burner; rotate the gas valve control knob counterclockwise to the “ON” position (“ON” will be at the bottom side of the valve) and turn “ON” the appliance mounted ON/OFF switch.

Figure 35

Electronic Appliance Checkout

To light the burner, turn ‘ON’ the optional remote wall switch or turn the appliance mounted ON/ OFF switch to the “ON” position. Ensure the igniter lights the pilot. The pilot ﬂame should engulf the ﬂame rod as shown in Figure 36.

When reinstalling the glass door, the door latch screws must be securely tightened to prevent the glass door from falling out, which could potentially cause damage and possible injury.

Install the door modesty shield on top ﬂange glass door as follows: grab the door modesty shield with both hands, with the open hem going down and engage it with the upper lip of the glass door frame by pushing it all the way down. Make sure the installed shield is ﬁrmly in place.

With the ﬁrescreen hanging on the screen rod, insert the right side of the rod into the existing hole on the right modesty panel. Bend down the rod at the center and drop the left end into the slot on the left modesty panel, being careful not to scratch the paint.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

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 technician.

Step 10. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

Flame Appearance and sooting

Proper ﬂame appearance is a matter of taste. Generally, most people prefer the warm glow of a yellow to orange ﬂame. Appliances operated with air shutter openings that are too large will exhibit ﬂames that are blue and transparent. These weak, blue and transparent ﬂames are termed anemic.

Combustible Finished Wall Materials

Installations with horizontal terminations which have minimum vertical vent height only will require 4”(102mm) minimum side clearance as shown in shaded zone above. All other installations require 1" (25mm) minimum side clearance as specified in Table 4 on Page 5.

If the air shutter opening is too small 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 yellow to orange ﬂame with an orange body that does not soot, the shutter opening must be adjusted between these two extremes.

No smoke or soot should be present. Reposition the logs if ﬂames impinge on any of them.

If the logs are properly positioned and sooting conditions exist, the air shutter opening on the main burner tube should be adjusted. Normally, the more offsets in the vent system, the greater the need for the air shutter to be opened further.

Burner Adjustment

Propane models may exhibit a ﬂame pattern that may candle or appear stringy. If this is problematic or persists as the appliance is continually operated, adjust the air shutter closed as described in the previous paragraphs. Operate the appliance for a period of time as the effect diminishes, ensuring that the appliance does not develop sooty ﬂames. When satisﬁed that the appliance operates properly, proceed to ﬁnish the installation.

Leave the control knob in the ON position and the remote switch OFF.

FINISHING REQUIREMENTS Wall Details

Complete ﬁnished interior wall. To install the appliance facing ﬂush with the ﬁnished wall, position framework to accommodate the thickness of the ﬁnished wall (Figure 39).

WARNING

Air shutter adjustment should only be performed by a qualiﬁed professional service technician.

To adjust the ﬂame, rotate the air shutter toward the back or toward the front of the ﬁreplace. Position the air shutter to the factory setting as shown in the table in Figure 38. Allow the burner to operate for at least 15 minutes. Observe the ﬂame continuously. If it appears weak or sooty as previously described, adjust the air shutter until the ﬂame appearance is as desired.

Use the extension knob (refer to Figure 34), to adjust the ﬂame height as desired, by sliding the knob over the variable ﬂame adjustment knob located on the front of the valve. Replace the extension knob back to the hanger after the adjustment.

A hearth extension is not required with this appliance. If a hearth extension is used, there are two methods of installation. One, the ﬁnish combustible or non-combustible material could be ended by butting up against the front face of the ﬁreplace and the ﬂoor panel (refer to Figure 40).

Two, the ﬁnish combustible or non-combustible material could be ended below the ﬁreplace (refer to Figure 41). Remove the ﬂoor panel as shown in Figure 40 by removing the screws on the right side of the panel and sliding the left side away from the tab. Discard the screws and ﬂoor panel. It is critical that there is at least a

1/8" gap between the bottom of the door track and the surface of the ﬁnish material.

Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed on the appliance front face with the exceptions.

Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel. See Figure 42. Mantels constructed of non-combustible materials may be installed at any height above the appliance opening.

COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

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