INTRODUCTION
The Power Vent Low Prole (PVLP-SLP) is certied for
use as a horizontal termination cap only on replaces
manufactured by Hearth & Home Technologies with IPI (intermittent pilot ignition) gas controls. Fireplaces equipped
with millivolt type gas controls CANNOT use this product.
BLOWER ASSEMBLY
4052-796
VACUUM SWITCH
4052-840
Note: PVLP-SLP requires special control system
congurations:
• For IntelliFire™ and IntelliFire™ Plus models, a
RC100, RC200 or RC300 and PV-IPI-CK control
system is required for installation (except on PRIMO
models). The PV-IPI-CK is sold separately.
• For IntelliFire™ Touch models, an IFT-ACM and IFT-
RC400 is required for installation. The IFT-ACM and
IFT-RC400 may need to be purchased separately if
the appliance is not already equipped with IFT.
• The battery-backup feature cannot be used with
models congured with the PVLP-SLP.
• The wired wall switch feature cannot be used with
models congured with the PVLP-SLP.
• An appliance with PVLP-SLP installed cannot be
operated with battery-backup or a wired wall switch.
Note: The battery back-up and wired wall switch feature
of any IPI system are removed when the PVLP-SLP
power vent is installed. The replace may no longer be
operated with battery back-up and/or a wired wall switch.
IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the control
being used to run the replace is activated, a 120 seconds
delay will occur before pilot ignition will begin. This is to allow
a pre-purge by the PVLP-SLP. If, after 135 seconds, the pilot
and burner do not light, refer to the Troubleshooting section
of this instruction for further direction. There will also be a
20-minute post-purge in which the PVLP-SLP will continue to
run after appliance is turned off.
NOTICE: The blower motors present in this power vent
will generate sound during operation. The effects of the
increased sound level can be minimized with careful planning during installation of the system.
The PVLP-SLP operates on 120VAC, 60Hz electrical
service which is supplied at the replace junction box.

installation. For all appliances equipped with IntelliFire™ or IntelliFire™ Plus ignition, other than the PRIMO, PV-IPI-CK conversion kit and one of the following; RC100, RC200 or RC300 are required. This kit includes all components to install the
PVLP-SLP to IntelliFire™ or IntelliFire™ Plus appliances. For appliances equipped with IntelliFire™ Touch (IFT) controls, an
IFT-RC400 remote and an IFT-ACM are required on the appliance.

B. Installation of PVLP-SLP
1. INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
a. This device must be installed by a qualied installer
in accordance with these instructions.
b. Safety inspection of the venting system should
be performed before and after installation of this
power vent. Consult local code ofcials and follow
applicable installation codes.
c. DO NOT INSTALL DAMAGED EQUIPMENT OR
VENT COMPONENTS.
d. Disconnect electrical power supply before making
wiring connections.
e. Venting of more than one appliance in a common
vent system is prohibited.
f. Clearances between the vent pipe and combustible
materials must be maintained at 1-1/2 inches top,
1 inch sides and bottom.
g. All outer pipe joints must be sealed with silicone
(with a minimum of 300° F continuous exposure
rating). See Section 2.A.
CAUTION! Failure to install, operate, and maintain the
power venting system in accordance with manufacturer's
instructions will result in conditions which may produce
bodily injury and/or property damage.
2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
a. The exit termination of mechanical draft systems shall
not be less than seven feet above grade when located
adjacent to public walkways.
b. A mechanical drafting venting system shall terminate at
least three feet above any forced air inlet located within
10 feet.
c. A PVLP-HS heat shield is available and sold separately
if the PVLP-SLP is installed in an accessible area.
d. If the PVLP-SLP will be installed in a location
where the exhaust housing assembly needs to be
removed for service or maintenance, the pipe must
be installed to allow for a minimum of 18" of pipe to
be removed at the time of service. This will allow
adequate space to remove the exhaust housing
assembly.

Vent Information and Diagrams
A. Installation of Vent Pipe
For information on standard procedures for venting the
appliance, refer to the "Vent Information and Diagrams"
section of the appliance installation manual.
For the allowable pipe lengths and elbow combinations for
an appliance utilizing the PVLP-SLP, consult the Power
Vent diagrams in the Vent Information and Diagrams section of the appliance installation manual. The PVLP-SLP
uses SLP pipe (6-5/8 inch) connections.
In certain cases, a pipe adapter may be used in the vent
run. The DVP-2SL adapts from 5 in. / 8 in. DVP series
starting collars to 4 in. / 6-5/8 in. SLP series vent pipe. A
DVP-SLP24 may also be used to transition from a DVP to
SLP pipe when using this cap.
Either SLP or DVP venting may be used throughout the
vent run except on certain models that require DVP pipe.
See Table 2.1. Refer to Section 2.B for more information
regarding venting regulations.
All outer pipe joints must be sealed with silicone (with a
minimum of 300ºF continuous exposure rating), including the slip section that connects directly to the horizontal
termination cap.
• Apply a bead of silicone sealant inside the female outer
pipe joint prior to joining sections. See Figure 2.1.
• Only outer pipes need to be sealed. All unit collar, pipe,
slip section, elbow and cap outer ues shall be sealed
in this manner, unless otherwise stated.
B. Vent/Pipe Regulations
WARNING! Risk of Fire!
Maintain minimum pipe length requirement between
appliance and PVLP-SLP on all models. Combustible
materials surrounding pipe may overheat.
1. A minimum length of venting is required between the
appliance and the PVLP-SLP. This minimum length
requirement varies for the specic appliance. Refer to
Table 2.1. for requirements for specic models. Once
the minimum length requirement is met, the PVLP-SLP
may be installed at any location within the vent run
conguration.
2. For every 1 ft. of vertical drop the total allowable length
must be reduced by 2 ft.
Note: See Table 2.1 for model specic vent requirements.

WARNING! Risk of Fire!
• A minimum length run of initial vent pipe is required between the appliance and the inlet of the PVLP-SLP on some
appliance models.
• Some models require DVP Series pipe for the initial minimum vent section directly off the appliance.
*If using the PVLP-SLP with a Majestic replace refer to addendum on page 28.
