CERTIFIED UNDER CANADIAN AND AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS: ANSI Z21.88 CSA 2.33 FOR VENTED GAS FIREPLACE HEATERS
AND ANSI Z21. CSA 2.22 FOR VENTED GAS FIREPLACES.
GAS POWER VENT
The GPV is a Direct Vent Terminal
(GPV)
GENERAL INFORMATION
These Installation Instructions must be used in conjunction
with the appliance and appropriate PVA adapter kit Installation
Instructions. Clearances listed in these Instructions supersede
those in the appliance's Installation Instructions.
Power venting of direct vent appliances may result in the
reduction of efficiencies by as much as ten percent. Consider
this in making any venting and heating decisions in any
installation application.
SELECTING AND INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
When selecting a gas appliance for use with the GPV, take into
consideration the various requirements and limitations in the
venting installation section for the following models:
Models Equipped with an Intermittent Pilot Ignition (I.P.I.)
It is recommended that the GPV be used with a gas appliance
equipped with an Intermittent Pilot Ignition (I.P.I.). Downward
vertical vent runs are permitted with an I.P.I. system. See
venting section in appropriate PVA Installation Instructions.
Models Equipped with Millivolt/ Standing Pilot
Downward vertical vent runs are not permitted with a standing
pilot system. See venting section in appropriate PVA Installation
Instructions.
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER
to conform with local codes. In absence of local codes install
to the current National Building Code in Canada or to regional
building codes in the United States. It must be electrically
connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In
the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1
CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA
70 NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE in the United States.
The GPV operates on 120 VAC 60 HZ electrical service which is
supplied at the firebox junction box.
designed to allow installation of
gas appliances where typical vent
configurations cannot be achieved.

HEIGHT
REFER TO POWER VENT ADAPTER KIT (PVA) FOR SPECIFIC VENTING INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: If equipped, ACS switch must be disabled if there is any downward venting. Downward venting is not
allowed with appliances that use standing pilots.
1.4 POWER VENT TERMINAL
1.4.1 TERMINAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. Having determined the correct
height for the terminal location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall as illustrated to accommodate the GPV.
A. Remove the electrical access plate from the frame assembly, then remove the
knock out from this plate.
B. Insert the wiring through the electrical access plate and engage the conduit bush-
ing. Re-secure this plate. NOTE: The GPV includes a 20 foot wire
harness cable. If this cable does not reach the appliance, then it
may be cut and a splice added. These connections must conform
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, use the current CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70
National Electrical Code in the United States.

C. Remove terminal access cover, see “INSTALLATION OVERVIEW” for
location and route cable through terminal.
D. Assemble gas power vent terminal to frame assembly.
E. Connect the male and female connectors.
F. Replace terminal access cover.
NOTE: Where possible, it is strongly recommended to have an access panel inside the building for
servicing the unit.
