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.

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.

into account the additional length needed for the fi n-
ished wall surface. Slip the vent pipe a minimum of 3”
over the inner sleeve of the terminal and secure with 3

1.4.3 INITIAL FIRING PROCEDURES
ALWAYS LIGHT THE PILOT WHETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME OR IF THE GAS SUPPLY HAS RUN OUT
WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPENED OR REMOVED. PURGE SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY A QUALI-
FIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN. ASSURE THAT A CONTINUOUS GAS FLOW IS AT THE BURNER BE-
FORE CLOSING THE DOOR. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
In some instances the system may not light pilot/burner with the door open/removed. Partially blocking the
exhaust fl ue collar will allow the safety pressure switch to activate and allow gas fl ow to the pilot during the
initial test fi ring.

1.4.4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE IF ANY PART HAS BEEN UNDER WATER. CALL A QUALIFIED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN IMMEDIATELY TO HAVE THE APPLIANCE INSPECTED FOR DAMAGE TO THE
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR EXPLOSION. DO NOT WIRE 110V TO THE VALVE OR TO THE
APPLIANCE WALL SWITCH. INCORRECT WIRING WILL DAMAGE CONTROLS.
ALL WIRING SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN AND SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE
WITH LOCAL CODES. IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODES, USE THE CURRENT CSA22.1 CANADIAN
ELECTRIC CODE IN CANADA OR THE CURRENT NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 IN
ALWAYS LIGHT THE PILOT WHETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME OR IF THE GAS SUPPLY HAS RAN OUT,
WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPENED OR REMOVED.
1.4.5 HARD WIRING CONNECTION
It is necessary to hard wire this appliance.
Permanently framing the appliance with an enclosure, requires the appliance junction box to be hard wired.
This appliance 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 70-1996
national electrical code in the United States.

1.6 WIRING DIAGRAM AND INSTALLATION
Connect the wiring to the power vent termination as outlined in the previous section, and connect the wiring
to the appliance as outlined in the schematic below. Ensure that the proper clearances are maintained for the
wiring and conduit. When installing the wiring it must never run above the vent run and it must be a minimum 1”
from all venting.
NOTE: The GPV includes a 20 foot wire harness. If this harness 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.
