Vent Information

A. Venting Components

In order to comply with applicable codes and product
warranties, use only following venting components:

• Hearth & Home Technologies (HHT)

• Security Chimney's Secure Vent Chimney System

• Selkirk Metalbestos

• AmeriVent

• Simpson Dura-Vent (SDV)

DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED VENTING

COMPONENTS. Refer to the venting manufacturer’s

instructions.

This product is approved to be vented either horizontally,
through the side wall or vertically through the roof. You may
vent through a Class A or masonry chimney if an approved
adapter is used.

This appliance is a direct vent heater. All combustion air must
come directly from the outside of the building. The vent pipe
for this unit consists of an inner and an outer pipe. The inner
pipe carries the appliance exhaust out of the system, and the
outer pipe brings fresh combustion air into the appliance.

• A round support box/wall thimble or heat shield is
required when the venting passes through a combus­tible wall.

• A support box or ceiling fi restop is required when the
venting passes through a ceiling.

• Roof fl ashing and a storm collar are required when vent-
ing passes through the roof.

• Follow instructions provided with the venting for instal­lation of these items.

B. Use of Elbows

CAUTION

ALL vent confi guration specifi cations MUST be followed.

• This product is tested and listed to these
specifi cations.

• Appliance performance will suffer if specifi cations are
not followed.

Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects
when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. (See Figure

5.1.)
Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one 90° elbow. On

45° runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216mm)
horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216mm) vertical run. A length of
straight pipe is allowed between two elbows. (See Figure

5.1.)

C. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements were made using the
following standards.

• Pipe measurements are from center line to center line.

• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside of
the mounting surface (fl ange of termination cap). See
Figure 4.1 on page 8.

• Vertical terminations are measured to the top of the last
pipe before termination cap.

• Horizontal pipe installed level with 1/4 in. rise.

January 28, 2008

D. How to Use the Vent Graph E. Venting Guidelines

1. Measure the distance from the top of appliance to the
center of the 90° elbow. On the graph below, draw a
horizontal line from that measurement on the vertical
axis across until it intersects with the slanted line.

2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to
the bottom of the graph.

3. The point at which this line meets the bottom line of the
graph is the maximum length of the horizontal run.

Example 1: If the vertical dimension from the top of the

appliance to the center of the 90° elbow is
7 ft. (2m), the horizontal run to the base of
the temination cap must not exceed 13 ft.­2 in. (4m).

Example 2: If the vertical dimension from the top of the

appliance is 21 ft. (6m), the horizontal run
to the base of the termination cap must not
exceed 7 ft.- 3in. (2m).

4. Each 90° elbow is equivalent to 3 ft. (914mm) of vent
pipe and each 45° elbow is equivalent to 1 ft. (305mm)
of vent pipe, and must be subtracted from vent pipe
run. A single vertical to horizontal 90° elbow is already
calculated into the allowable 15 ft. (5m) run. Each
additional 90° elbow reduces the maximum horizontal
distance by 3 ft. (914mm).

Example: The use of 3 elbows would reduce the

allowable horizontal run to 9 ft. (3 - 1 =
2 elbows x 3 ft. = 6 ft.; 15 ft. max. - 6 ft.=
9 ft. max.)

Notes: The maximum horizontal vent run is 15 ft. (5m)

when the vertical vent rise is 10 ft. (3m).
The minimum horizontal vent run is 11 in.
(279mm).
Minimum wall thickness is 4 in. (102mm). Maximum
wall thickness is 20 in. (508mm).
Horizontal sections require a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise for
every 12 in. (305mm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6-5/8 in. (168mm); Inner
Vent Diameter = 4 in. (101mm).
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support
every 3 ft. (914mm), e.g. plumbing tape.

EXCEPTION FOR REAR VENT KIT (Snorkel Kit

#844-8921), HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION:

When installing the Sapphire in a rear vent configuration
with no vertical rise: a snorkel kit must be used, and
a derating orifice must be installed. The appropriate
orifice is supplied with the rear vent kit.

For any vertical rise when rear venting, a minimum of 2
ft. (610mm) vertical must be used prior to any horizontal
run.

The maximum horizontal vent run is 2 ft. (610mm).

The maximum horizontal vent run with a 45° elbow is 14
in. (356mm).

No external minimum rise is required. The minimum
horizontal vent run is 11 in. (279mm).

NOTE: IF YOUR INSTALLATION FALLS WITHIN A
SHADED AREA ON THE GRAPH, THE DAMPER MUST
BE USED.

NOTE: In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the word

damper shall be replaced with the words flue restrictor.

• Ensure vent components are locked together correctly.

• Pipe may separate if not properly joined.

Step 2.

Direct vent pipe is designed with a locking connection. To
connect the venting system to the appliance flue outlet, a
twist-lock adapter is built into the appliance at the factory.
Wall thickness may vary. Remember to include wall
thickness in minimum clearances when figuring venting
lengths for your installation needs.

Note: Female ends of direct vent pipe/elbows are designed
to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes by
orienting the pipe indentations so they match and slide into
the entry slots on the male ends, see Figure 5.4. Push
the pipe sections completely together, then twist-lock one
section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn, until the
two sections are fully locked. The female locking lugs may

Step 3.

For installations using a round support box/wall thimble
(check pipe manufacturer's instructions), mark the wall for a
10 in. x 10 in. (254mm x 254mm) square hole. The center
of the square hole should line up with the center line of the
horizontal pipe, as shown in Figure 5.5. Cut and frame the
hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. If
the wall being penetrated is constructed of noncombustible
material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7 in. (178mm)
diameter hole is acceptable.

NOTE:

(1) Installation requires a minimum of 11 in. (279mm)

horizontal run. Each 1 ft. (305mm) of horizontal vent
run must include a 1/4 in. (6mm) of vertical rise towards
the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward.
This could cause high temperatures and may present
the possibility of a house or structure fire.

(2) The location of the horizontal vent termination on an

exterior wall must meet all local and national building
codes, and must not be easily blocked or obstructed,
see Figure 4.4 on page 9.

(914mm) tall snorkel termination cap. Follow the
same installation procedures as used for standard
horizontal terminations. If the snorkel termination must
be installed below grade (i.e. basement application),
proper drainage must be provided to prevent water from
entering the snorkel termination. Do not backfill around
snorkel termination.

Step 4.

Position the horizontal termination cap in the center of the 10
in. x 10 in. (254mm x 254mm) square hole and run a bead
of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, so as to
make a seal between it and the wall, attach termination cap
to the exterior wall with the four wood screws provided. The
arrow on the vent cap should be pointing up (Figure 5.6).

Place the wall thimble cover over the pipe assembly and
slide the appliance and vent assembly towards the wall,
carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent termination
cap assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extend into
the vent termination cap a sufficient distance so as to result
in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 in. (32mm). Secure the
connection between the vent pipe and the vent termination
cap by attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from
the vent termination cap assembly into the outer wall of
the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws provided to
connect the strips to the pipe section (Figure 5.9).

Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb

bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance
flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate
the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb
bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling,
and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof.
Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will
obstruct the venting system. You may wish to relocate the
appliance, or to offset, as shown in Figure 5.12 to avoid
cutting loadbearing members. When location is determined,
drill small hole.

Step 4.

Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows necessary
to reach from the appliance up through the round support
box. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their
fully twist-locked position. Assemble as instructed.

Step 5.

Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drill hole placed in
the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet
the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles, as
specified. Continue to assemble lengths of pipe and elbows
necessary to reach from the ceiling support box/wall thimble
up through the roof line. Galvanized pipe and elbows may
be utilized in the attic, as well as above the roofline. The
galvanized finish is desirable above the roofline, due to its
higher corrosion resistance.

NOTE:

(1) If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions,

it is important to support the vent pipe every 3 ft.
(914mm) to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and
possible separation. Wall straps are available for this
purpose, Figure 5.12, page 15.

Step 7.

Continue to assemble pipe sections until the height of the
vent (before adding the termination cap) meets the minimum
code requirements as outlined in the current CAN/CGA-B149
Installation Codes (in Canada), the National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 (in USA), or local codes. Note that
for steep roof pitches, the vent height must be increased.
See Roof Pitch Table (Figure 4.3, on page 8). In high wind
conditions, nearby trees adjoining rooflines, steep pitched
roofs, and other similar factors can result in poor draft, or
down drafting. In these cases increasing the vent height or
switching to the high wind termination cap may solve this
problem.

Step 8.

Slip the storm collar over the pipe, and push it down to the
top of the flashing (Figure 5.15). Use non-hardening sealant
above and below the joint between the storm collar and the
pipe.

(2) Whenever possible, use 45° elbows, instead of 90°

elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction to the flow
of flue gases and intake air.

Step 6.

Slip the flashing over the pipe section(s) protruding through
the roof. Secure the base of the flashing to the roof with
roofing nails. Ensure the roofing material overlaps the top
edge of the flashing as shown in Figure 5.14. Verify that the
chimney is the required height above the roof. See roof pitch

CAUTION

Ensure that existing chimney is functionally sound and clean.

• Have inspection done by qualified chimney sweep or
professional installer BEFORE converting to direct vent
appliance.

Step 1.

Before cutting any holes, assemble the desired sections
of direct vent pipe to determine the center of the masonry
penetration.

Step 2.

Once the center point of the penetration has been determined,
cut a 6 in. (152mm) diameter hole in the masonry. If the hole
is too large, the retro connector might not mount properly; if
the hole is too small, the appliance might starve for intake
air. If there is a frame wall in front of the masonry wall, cut
and frame a 10 in. (254mm) square opening in the wall
(centered around the 6 in. (152mm) masonry opening). If
there is sheet rock only (no studs) in front of the masonry the
10 in. (254mm) opening is still needed, but does not need
to be framed. If the hole is framed a round support box/wall
thimble is required. This allows the retro connector to mount
directly on the masonry and provide the correct clearances
to combustibles (Figure 5.24).

Step 4.

To determine the length of flex needed, measure from 3 in.
(76mm) above the top of the flashing down to the level of the
opening. Add the distance from the center of the chimney
out through the wall. Cut a piece of 4 in. (102mm) flex to this
length (extended to its nominal length). Be sure to leave 2-3
in. (51-76mm) of flex above the existing chimney to allow for
connection to the termination kit.

Step 5.

Connect the flex liner to the top adapter using three sheet
metal screws (Figure 5.20, page 19).

Step 3.

Secure the flashing to the top of the masonry chimney using
a bead of non-hardening sealant-adhesive. If the flashing is
larger than the top of the chimney, cut and fold flashing as
needed to fit chimney (Figure 5.25).

Step 6.
Feed the flex liner through the flashing into the chimney.
Carefully feed the flex liner down the chimney to the bottom
and out the opening in the masonry wall, forming an angle to
line up the flex liner with the vent opening on the appliance.

WARNING

Fire Risk.
Explosion Risk.

• Do not let the fl ex liner sag below the level at
which it will connect to the appliance or connector.
This could allow hot gas to become trapped and
potentially become a fi re hazard. The fl ex liner path
should always be sloped up toward the termination
cap.

Step 7.

If additional lengths of flex liner are needed to span the
chimney height, use a flex coupler to connect the pieces of
flex liner together. Connect the flex to the coupler by using
four sheet metal screws for each side (Figure 5.26, on the
next page).

D. After Appliance is Lit

Initial Break-in Procedure

When you light your appliance, you may notice that it pro­duces heat which does have an associated odor or smell. If
you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial three
to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a second
burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from paint and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Condensation
on the glass is normal.

NOTE: The appliance should be run three to four hours
on the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the
appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to cure
the products used in the paint and logs.

During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate
any odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.

WARNING

Fire Risk.
High Temperatures.

Keep combustible household items away from appliance.
Do NOT obstruct combustion and ventilation air.

• Do NOT place combustible items on top of or in front of
appliance.

• Keep furniture, draperies away from appliance.

CAUTION

• Prevent accidental appliance operation when not
attended.

• Unplug or remove batteries from remote control if absent
or if appliance will not be used for an extended period of
time.

• Property damage possible from elevated temperatures.

CAUTION

Smoke and odors released during initial operation.

• Open windows for air circulation.

• Leave room during initial operation.

• Smoke may set off smoke detectors.

Smoke and odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.

WARNING

Fire Hazard.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline
and other fl ammable vapors and liquids
clear of appliance.

• Do NOT store fl ammable materials in the appliance’s
vicinity.

• Do NOT use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fl uid or similar liquids in this appliance.

• Combustible materials may ignite.

E. Frequently Asked Questions

ISSUE SOLUTIONS

Condensation on the glass This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms,

this condensation will disappear.

Blue fl ames This is a result of normal operation and the fl ames will begin to yellow as the appliance

is allowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.

Odor from appliance When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours.

This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing. If appliance has not been used for some time, dust can build up and
cause an odor.

Film on the glass This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be

cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the
manufacturing process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance cleaner may be
necessary. See your dealer.

Metallic noise Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down,

similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect
the operation or longevity of the appliance.

Troubleshooting

10

With proper installation, operation, and maintenance your gas appliance will provide years of trouble-free service. If you do
experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist a qualifi ed service person in the diagnosis of a problem and the
corrective action to be taken. This troubleshooting guide can only be used by a qualifi ed service technician.

Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action

1. After repeated trig­gering of the piezo
button, the spark ignitor
will not light the pilot.

2. The pilot will not stay
lit after carefully follow­ing the lighting instruc­tions.

a. Defective ignitor. Check the spark at the electrode and pilot. If no spark and electrode

wire is properly connected, replace the ignitor.

b. Defective pilot or
misaligned electrode
(spark at electrode).

c. No gas or low gas
pressure.

d. No LP in tank. Check the LP (propane) tank. You may be out of fuel.
a. Defective thermo-

couple.

Using a match, light the pilot. If the pilot lights, turn off the pilot and trig­ger the piezo button again. If the pilot lights, an improper gas/air mixture
caused the bad lighting and a longer purge period is recommended. If
the pilot will not light, ensure the gap at the electrode and pilot is one­eighth (1/8) inch to have a strong spark. If the gas is OK, replace the
pilot.

Check the remote shut-off valve from the appliance. Usually, there is a
valve near the gas main. There can be more that one (1) valve from the
appliance and the main.

Check that the pilot fl ame impinges on the thermocouple. Clean and /or
adjust the pilot for maximum fl ame impingement.

Ensure that the thermocouple connection at the gas valve is fully
inserted and tight (hand tighten plus 1/4 turn).

3. The pilot is burning,
there is no gas to the
burner, the valve knob is
in the ON position, and
the ON/OFF switch is in
the ON position.

Disconnect the thermocouple from the valve, place one millivolt lead
wire on the tip of the thermocouple and the other meter wire on the ther­mocouple copper lead. Start the pilot and hold the valve knob in. If the
millivolt reading is less than 15mV, replace the thermocouple.

b. Defective valve. If the thermocouple is producing more than 15 millivolts, replace faulty

valve.

a. ON/OFF switch or
wires defective.

b. Thermopile may
not be generating
suffi cient millivoltage.

Check the ON/OFF switch and wires for proper connections. Place the
jumper wires across the terminals at the switch. If the burner comes on,
replace the defective switch. If the switch is OK, place the jumper wires
across the switch wires at the gas valve. IF the burner comes on, the
wires are faulty or connections are bad.

If the pilot fl ame is not close enough physically to the thermopile, adjust
the pilot fl ame.

Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at the gas valve ter­minals are tight and that the thermopile is fully inserted into the pilot
bracket.

Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take the reading at TH­TP&TP terminals of the gas valve. The meter should read 325 millivolts
minimum, while holding the valve knob depressed in the pilot position,
with the pilot lit, and the ON/OFF switch in the OFF position. Replace
the faulty thermopile if the reading is below the specifi ed minimum.

With the pilot in the ON position, disconnect the thermopile leads from
the valve. Take a reading at the thermopile leads. The reading should
be 325 millivolts minimum. Replace the thermopile if the reading is
below the minimum.

Follow the corrective action in Symptom and Possible Cause 1.a.
Check the switch and wiring. Replace where defective.

Clean and adjust the pilot fl ame for maximum fl ame impingement on
thermocouple. Follow lighting instructions carefully.

Check for proper vent connection at fl ue collar and all vent joints.

The horizontal vent termination cap should slope down only enough to
prevent any water from entering the appliance.

Replace if necessary.

Check for proper installation and freedom from debris or blockage.

Adjust the log set so that the fl ame does not excessively impinge on it.
Check that logs are placed according to installation instructions.

Adjust the air shutter at the base of the burner.

Inspect the opening at the base of the burner. NO MATERIAL SHOULD
BE PLACED IN THIS OPENING.

Ensure that the vent termination cap is installed properly and free of
debris. Ensure that the vent system joints are tight and have no leaks.

Ensure that no debris has been placed at the base of, or in the area of
the air holes in the center of the base pan beneath the burner.
