LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and functional use of the appliance are primary concerns. However, vent system routing to the exterior and access to the fuel supply are also important. Due to high temperatures the
appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
Consideration should be given to traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due to elevated sur­face temperatures (
Figure 2
). The location should also be free of electrical, plumbing or other heating/air conditioning ducting.
These direct vent appliances are uniquely suited for installations requiring a utility shelf posi­tioned directly above the fireplace. Utility shelves like these are commonly used for locating tele­vision sets and decorative plants.
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface use the alternate rear vent outlet with attached venting routed in a way to minimize obstruc­tions to the use of the space above the appli­ance. Do not insulate the space between the
appliance and the area above it. See
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 the table in
Figure 3
.
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.
APPLIANCE AND VENT CLEARANCES
The appliance is approved with zero clearance to combustible materials on all sides (as de­tailed in
Table 2 )
When the unit is installed with one side flush with a wall, the wall on the other side of the unit must not extend beyond the front edge of the unit. In addition, when the unit is recessed, the side walls surrounding the unit must not extend beyond the front edge of the unit. See

VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)
Figure 16, and Figures 26 through 30 on pages 14 and 15
and their associated Vertical Vent Tables 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 systems 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-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
Vertical (Straight) Installation
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. 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.

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 14 and 15 to select the type of vertical installation desired. Vent sections are available in net lengths of 4-1/2" (114 mm), 10­1/2" (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 10 for an aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows are avail­able in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer to
Figure 21 on page 13
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

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
to Figure 18 )
. 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 is not required as the pipe will securely lock when twisted.
(refer
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 19.
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 page 27.
E. Support the vertical vent run sections -
Note - Proper venting support is very impor-
tant. The weight of the vent must not be supported by the firplace in any degree.
Support the vertical portion of the venting system every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace vent outlet.

see Figure 18
).
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.
Figure 20
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
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. Refer to
Figure 20.
H. Frame roof opening - Identify location for
vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening per Roof Framing Chart and

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

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 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/ inclined vent runs using conventional plumbers tape.
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 carpenters 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.

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 23
). 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 23
J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the vent/flashing joint. See 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.

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 25)
can be installed 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 are seated at the end of the channels.
Figure 25
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
Figure 31, and Figures 34 to 41 on pages 18, 19 and 20
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 systems 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 compo-
nents are unitized concentric pipe components featuring positive twist lock connection, (
Figure 18
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. Plan the vent lengths so that a joint does not occur at the intersection of ceiling or roof joists. Make allow­ances for elbows as indicated in
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 page 7. 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 17
on page 12 ).
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 18
on page 12). 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.
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
on
the channels.This seating position is indicated by the alignment of the arrow and dimple as shown in
Figure 19 on page 12.
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.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS 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 ­See Section E on page 12. 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
ure 21 on page 13
.
Fig-
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 31.
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.
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
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 located relative to the exterior surface to which the termination is to be attached as shown in
Figure 33 and Table 4 on page 18
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
32
, refer to
Table 4 on page 18
Figure
. 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 32
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 32
, and nail into place.
(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 hori-
zontal termination must not be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by more than the 1-
1/4" (32 mm) as shown in
Figure 33
.
SVHRK Snorkel CapThe snorkel cap is de- signed to be fitted into a basement window box. The SVHRK cap is for use with flex vent pipe.
The vertical distance between the inlet and outlet of the cap is 28 in. (711 mm).
IMPORTANT: The vent termination is hot while in operation and for a period of time following use of the fireplace. To prevent contact with hot surfaces, we recommend the use of a Termination Guard. This can be purchased at your local dealer.

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.

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.
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 35 ).

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 also
Figure 41)
:
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, approxi-
mately 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 1³⁄₄ inch 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.
NOTE: OUTER PIPE IS PULLED AWAY TO SHOW THE DETAIL OF THE INNER PIPE
Apply ONLY MIL-PAC BLACK HIGH TEMPERATURE SEALANT (Catalog No. 10K81) to the outside surface of both collars of the adapter (be especially careful to fill the grooves of the outer collar to be covered by the flexible pipe) and slide flexible pipe over inner and outer adapter collars.

the outer 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 outer adapter collar; to the grooves of the collar which extend approximately 1 inch from the end and to the flat surface, approximately 1­3/8 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 42
. Support horizontal sections of flex with metal straps at 2 foot (0.61 m) intervals.

FBK-100, FBK-200 and FBK250 Kits
(See Figure 45 for FBK-100, FBK-200 and Figure 46 for FBK-250 wiring)
-
An electrical outlet box (receptacle) is factory ­provided for the installation of the FBK-100, FBK- 200 and FBK-250 forced air blower kits. (An optional field-provided outletbox/J-Box may also be used. Electrical power must be connected to either of these receptacles in order to operate these blowers. Install the blower kits according to the installation instructions provided with the kits.
IMPORTANT: Ground supply wire must be connected to the green wire attached to the outlet receptacle's green ground screw. See
Figure 45 or 46
. Failure to do so will result in a potential safety hazard. The appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70­(latest edition). (In Canada, the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code.)
WARNING: ELECTRONIC MODELS OF THESE APPLIANCES ARE EQUIPPED WITH A THREE-PRONG (GROUNDING) PLUG UTILIZED IN CONNECTING THE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS TO THE JUNCTION BOX IN THE LOWER COM­PARTMENT. THIS GROUNDING PLUG PROVIDES PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PLUGGED DIRECTLY INTO THE PROP­ERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RE­CEPTACLE. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG.

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 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.

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).
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. Never
use an open flame to check for leaks. A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting
instructions label in the control compartment or in the Homeowner's Care and Operation Instructions).
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 to the OFF posi­tion. Either tighten or refasten the leaking connection and retest as described above.
C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, be sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.
D. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, 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.

Step 7. INSTALLING LOGS, VERMICULITE, DECORATIVE VOLCANIC STONE AND GLOWING EMBERS
The packaged logs are located within the firebox. The vermiculite, decorative volcanic stone and glowing embers are packaged sepa­rately in plastic bags located in the control area of the fireplace. Refer to the Log Set Place- ment Guide for detailed placement instruc­tions for the logs, vermiculite, decorative vol­canic stone and glowing embers.
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 in the Care and Operation Instructions. For piezo ignitor location see
Figure 49
(Honeywell
millivolt appliances only).
Note: Lighting Instructions are also found on the literature tag attached to the gas valve train.
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 lightings of the appliance will not require such purging. In­spect the pilot flame (remove logs, if neces­sary, handling carefully).
SIT Gas Valve
SIT and Honeywell 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" min (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 (

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. 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.
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
Burner Adjustment
CAUTION: THE ADJUSTMENT ROD AND NEARBY APPLIANCE SURFACES ARE HOT. EXERCISE CAUTION TO AVOID INJURY WHILE ADJUSTING FLAME APPEARANCE.
To adjust the flame, move the adjustment rod (located in the lower control area) up or down to increase or reduce the air shutter opening, respectively. Initially, always position the air
shutter to the factory setting (the minimum air opening position) as shown in This can be done by pulling the adjustment rod all the way down. 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 by pushing or pulling on the adjustment rod until the flame appearance is as desired.

door and logs to access the air shutter. The shutter is prevented from actually closing all the way by an adjustment set screw (see Figure 54). Remove this screw using a 1/4 inch nut driver. Reinstall the logs and glass door, turn the gas back on and then restart the appliance. After 30 minutes, reobserve the flame. Adjust the air shutter as previously described.
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. Close the lower control compartment door.
Step 11. HOOD INSTALLATION
All of these appliances must have hoods installed prior to operating.
On all clean face units, slide the hood into the slots on the lower edge of the radiant panel
(Figure 55 ).
On louvered face units, slide the hood into the slots on the lower edge of the cabinet top
(Figure 56 ).

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.

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.
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 front face.
See Figures 55 and 56.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed on the appliance front face with these exceptions: they must not cover any portion of the glass or louvers; they may cover any portion of the top radiant panel or the air gaps surrounding the top radiant panel up to the installed hood.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel. See any height above the appliance opening; however, do not allow anything to hang below the hood.
