ORIFICE SIZE/ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT
For altitudes above 2,000 feet (In Canada 4,500 FT/1370 M),the orifice
should be de-rated by 4% for every 1,000 feet to maintain the proper
ratio of gas to air. Improper orifice sizing may result in damage and
unsafe conditions. Changing the orifice should only be done by a qualified service technician. Contact your Lennox Hearth Products dealer for
proper orifice sizes.
SMOKE DETECTORS
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we
recommend installing smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke
detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by the appliance). If
your local code requires a smoke detector be installed within the same
room, you must follow the requirements of your local code. Check with
your local building department for requirements in your area.

Venting
This fireplace can be vented with Security™ Secure Vent™ pipe*. Coaxial
pipe diameters are 6-5/8” outer and 4” inner. The combustion air for this
fireplace is drawn from outside the house through the outer DV (directvent) 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 Pages
18-24) will be met.
Electrical
Fuel
This fireplace comes from the factory equipped to burn natural gas at a
specified elevation. The fireplace 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.

Combustible materials may be placed above and within the shaded areas.
If your fireplace has an arched face, the combustible mantel facing material may curve with the arch of the face as long as a minimum distance
of 10” is maintained between the top of the face and the combustible
facing material.
Hearth Protection: Hearth protection in front of the Ravelle™ 42 gas
fireplace is not required. However, hearth protection is recommended
and will enhance the appearance of the fireplace.
Pipe Clearances: All installations using a vertical termination cap
must maintain 1” (25mm) clearance between the direct-vent pipe and
combustibles. For horizontal terminations, when the top of the horizontal
run of pipe is less than 8 feet (2.4 M) above the base of the fireplace, 1”
(25mm) clearance on the sides and bottom and 5” (127 mm) on the top
of the pipe is required. For those horizontal runs at or above 8 feet, 1”
(25 mm) is required on the sides and bottom and 2” (51 mm) on the top
of the pipe. See Page 19 for allowable pipe configurations.

INSTALLATION
Framing Dimensions
The dimensions given on this page are minimum framing distances necessary to maintain safe clearances between the Ravelle™ 42 gas fireplace
and combustible materials.
uIf the unit is to be vented horizontally with a 90º elbow right off the
top of the fireplace and directly through an exterior wall, then a hole
10-3/4” (273 mm) square with a center line 42-1/4” (1073 mm)
above the base of the fireplace will accommodate the wall thimble
and direct-vent pipe.
vThe gas line should be routed to the left side of the unit. The access
hole in the fireplace for the gas line is 6-7/8” (175 mm) back from
the front edge and 2-1/8” (54 mm) up from the base of the unit. If
the gas line enters the unit from the right side the piping will need to
be disconnected to remove the fan.
If a wall-mounted on/off switch or thermostat is to be used, these
wires should be routed to the left front of the unit for access to the
fireplace. The wire should be fed through the gas line hole, along the
gas line, to the valve.
A 6” (152 mm) header may need to be notched to accommodate vertical
vent pipe. If the fireplace is going to be horizontally vented directly out
the back, do not place a stud in line with the wall thimble. If a hearth
extension greater than 1” (25 mm) thick is going to be used, the fireplace and the header must be raised accordingly. See Hearth Extension
Considerations for further details.
Insulation: The exterior walls adjacent to the fireplace should be
insulated like the rest of the house, but insulation should not be placed
around the fireplace or vent pipe.
Corner Installations: The dimensions on this page are minimum and
show the stand-offs on the rear corners of the fireplace up against the
corner walls.
u
48”
(1219mm)
v
wThe electrical power supply wiring should be routed to the right rear
of the unit.
Note: The fireplace may be placed directly on wood or non-combustible
flooring, but not on vinyl floor covering or carpet.
Framing Suggestions: The framing header above the front of the
fireplace should be as narrow front to back as allowable to give maximum
clearance to the direct-vent pipe (i.e. don’t use a 6” (152 mm) thick header
when a 4” (102 mm) thick one is allowed).

Hearth Extension Considerations
The fireplace may be raised by building a platform of sufficient strength to
support the fireplace and pipe. When building a raised hearth extension,
please see the note below regarding height of the fireplace in relation to
the thickness of the hearth extension material.
A hearth extension in front of the fireplace is not required; however, to
enhance the appearance of the Ravelle™ 42 gas fireplace, one is recommended. Note: There is a 1” (25 mm) space between the base of the
fireplace and the bottom of the decorative fireplace face. This space
will allow a 7/8” (22 mm) thick hearth extension (including backer board
if desired). Should a hearth extension thicker than 7/8” (22 mm) be
desired, the height of the fireplace must be raised the thickness of that
hearth extension less the 7/8” (22 mm). For example, if a 2-7/8” (73 mm)
thick cultured stone is to be placed on the floor to serve as the hearth
extension, then the fireplace must be raised 2” (51 mm) (possibly using
1/2” (13 mm) plywood over 2 x 4’s laid flat) to accommodate the 2-7/8”
(73 mm) stone. It is important to note that if the fireplace is raised then
it is necessary to raise the height of the header above the stand-offs
an equal amount. If you wish to install your fireplace without a hearth
extension you must remember to set your finished flooring height 1” (25
mm) higher than the bottom base of the fireplace or install the fireplace
1” (25mm) lower than the finished flooring materials for that room. This
will assure that no gap will exist between the room’s flooring and your
new fireplace decorative face after it is installed.

Cement Board - a minimum

Sheetrock

5” (127mm)
Minimum
Sheetrock
Non-combustible cement board (such as Wonderboard, Durock, or Hardybacker) must extend 10” (254 mm) above the 1” (25 mm) top reveal
and a minimum of 3” (76 mm) from each side reveal (see Figure 8). This
cement board may be 1/4” (6.3 mm) thick or greater, but would normally
be the thickness of the drywall - for example 1/2” (13 mm). The cement
board may be fastened by drywall screws.
Sheetrock
The screws should be driven through the cement board into the outer
metal skin of the fireplace. The sheetrock (drywall) is then butted up
to the cement board. The sheetrock above the fireplace should also be
fastened to the fireplace by driving screws into the outer metal skin of
the fireplace.
Facing Less Than 1” Thick: If the combined thickness of the facing
material (eg. 3/8” [9.5 mm] thick ceramic tile and 1/2” [13 mm] thick
cement board) is less than 1” (25mm), then the tile can be placed behind
the fireplace face (see below).

If the combined thickness of the facing material (eg. brick or cultured
stone) and concrete board is greater than 1”, then the facing material
must be placed around the face. A template (Arch #75098, Foundry™
#75035 and Classic [Louver] #75101) should be used while installing
the facing material. Templates for the various faces may be purchased
from your Lennox Hearth Products dealer or a template may be made of
plywood using the dimensions listed on this page. If you choose to make
a template, 1/8” (3mm) must be added to each side and top dimension
to provide sufficient clearance so the face may be removed for access to
the firebox. Since the bottom of the fireplace face is 1” above the base
of the fireplace, 1” (25mm) must be added to the height of the template
if the template is to rest on the floor or platform on which the fireplace
is placed. It is extremely IMPORTANT that the template be centered left
to right on the glass door of the fireplace.

Adjustment prior to arched face installation:
The corners of the 1” (25mm) reveal around the fireplace opening need
to be adjusted prior to installing an arched face (see Figures 13 and
14). Remove screws A and loosen screw B. Rotate the corner downward
bending the metal at pivot point C until the holes from which screws A
were removed line up with the lower set of holes. Reinstall screws A and
tighten screw B. When finished, the corners should look like the corner
shown in Figure 15.

A number of different faces are available for the Ravelle™ 42 gas fireplace, however, all the faces are installed in a similar manner. A total of
four screws (two upper and two lower) attach the face to the fireplace.
To install a face:
1. Locate the two screws found in the hardware bag shipped with the face.
Position the face (with the lower door open) in front of the fireplace.
Install the two screws, A in the diagram below, through the holes in
the lower door hinge bracket and screw them into the captive nut on
tab B located on the fireplace. Do not fully tighten these screws yet.

2. Bracket C in the diagram below is installed on the face during the face
assembly (see instructions included with face). The captive screws D
on this bracket should be screwed into captive nuts E on the fireplace.
A phillips head screwdriver inserted through the vent holes in the face
can be used to complete this task. Align the face for plumb and level
and then tighten all four screws.
CAUTION: Any masonry that has been cleaned with an acid
wash must be properly neutralized before installing the fireplace face. The acid wash will tarnish the face. Consult your
masonry installer.
