Venting
This stove can be vented with Security™ Secure Vent™
pipe*. Coaxial pipe diameters are 6-5/8” outer and 4” inner.
The combustion air for this stove is drawn from outside the
house through the outer DV (direct vent) pipe. Room air is
not required for combustion.
When planning your installation, select the correct length of
vent pipe for your particular requirements. Determine the
minimum clearance to combustibles from the rear of the
unit to the wall. It is also important to note the thickness
of the wall. Before cutting the vent hole through the wall
make sure that ALL vent and termination clearances (see
page 16) will be met.
Electrical
The standard fan motor requires 120 Volts AC for operation.
The stove is not dependent on the fan or an outside electri
cal supply to operate.
Instructions - This appliance is equipped with a threeprong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove
the grounding prong from this plug.
WARNING - Electrical Grounding
Millivolt Valve
This stove is operated with a millivolt valve and therefore
burns even during a power outage.
Fuel
This stove comes from the factory equipped to burn natural
gas at a specified elevation. The stove can be converted to
burn LP gas (liquid propane) by changing the cassette (valve
and pilot assembly) or installing a conversion kit. Only Lennox
Hearth Products conversion kits can be used to convert from
NG to LP or LP to NG. Contact your Lennox Hearth Products
dealer for details.

Corner Installation
The minimum width between alcove side walls is 30-1/2”
(775mm). The glass door lifts up to access the firebox on the
stove. Therefore, if the stove is to be installed in an alcove,
the alcove needs to be constructed to allow for removal of
the glass door. Option 1: The maximum alcove depth is
15” (381mm) (maintaining a 4” [102mm] rear clearance
the stove will be positioned partly into the room) and the
remaining minimum dimensions to combustibles are as
shown in the Option 1 drawing below. Option 2: The alcove
is 43” (1092mm) high to provide sufficient space to remove
the door. The maximum depth of the alcove is 24” (610mm).
Option 3: Should an alcove depth from 2 feet (.61M) to 4
feet (1.22M)be desired then the minimum alcove height is
54” (1372mm). Access to the stove’s controls should be
considered when determining the alcove size.

Baffle
The cast iron baffle is wrapped in foam and shipped between
the outside of the firebox and the outer shell of the stove.
Remove the foam and install the baffle in the rectangular
hole in the top of the firebox. The baffle rests unsecured in
the hole.
Log Set & Embers
Caution: If the logs are not properly installed, your
stove will not function properly.
Parts list: rear log, left front log, right front log, and
straight twig
1) Remove the logs from the box and carefully unwrap them.
The logs are fragile so handle them with care.
2) Align the holes in the bottom of the rear log (the longest
log in the set) with the two pegs just to the rear of the
rear burner tube and slide the log down onto the pegs
(Figure 10). The charred black surface of the log should
face the front.
3) The left front log has two pegs protruding from the top
surface (Figure 11). The charred black with white highlights
surface of the log should be facing forward. Slide this log
down onto the left front and center front pegs.
4) The right front log (positioned with the black charred
surface towards the front) should be placed on the peg
protruding from the right end of the left front log and the
remaining peg at the right end of the metal log support
panel (Figure 11).
5) The remaining straight twig has two holes in the bottom.
Position the twig so the black and white charring is to the
front and slide the holes over the peg in the left front log
and the peg in the rear log (Figure 12). It may be neces
sary to roll the top of the rear log slightly forward to put
this twig on the pegs.
6) Figure 13 shows the entire log set assembled. The embers
provided may be placed one high in front of the front
burner tube using care not to cover all the burner ports.
Any extra embers may be placed at the ends of the front
log, off the burner. Place small pinches of rockwool on
top of the embers.
