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 venting 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.

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.

D. How to Use the Vent GraphE. Venting Guidelines
1.Measure the vertical 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 center line of
the fl ue vent to the center of the 90° elbow is 7 ft. (2.13 m),
the horizontal run to the outer wall fl ange must not exceed
16 ft. (5m).
EXAMPLE 2: If the vertical dimension from the center line of
the fl ue vent is 21 ft. (6m), the horizontal run to the outer wall
fl ange must not exceed 12 ft. 10 in. (4m).
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 20 ft. (6m) run. Each
additional 90° elbow reduces the maximum horizontal
distance by 3 ft. (914mm).
NOTES
The maximum horizontal vent run is 20 ft (6m) when
the vertical vent rise is 10 ft. (3m).
The minimum horizontal vent run is 6 in. (152mm).
Horizontal sections require a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise for
every 12 in. (305 mm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6-5/8 in. (168mm); Inner
Vent Diameter = 4 in. (102mm).
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support
every 3 ft. (914mm), e.g. wall straps.
For any vertical termination a minimum of 6 ft. (2m)
vertical must be used.
Minimum vertical from appliance top before adding
an elbow is 2 in. (51mm).
EXCEPTIONS FOR HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS:
*When installing this appliance in a rear vent configuration
with no vertical rise, a Snorkel Kit must be used.
*The maximum horizontal vent run is 3 ft. (914mm)
*The maximum horizontal vent run with a 45° elbow is 2
ft. (609mm).
*The minimum horizontal vent run is 6 in. (152mm).
EXAMPLE: The use of 3 elbows would reduce the allowable
horizontal run to 9 ft. (3 -1 = 2 elbows x 3 ft. = 6 ft.; 20 ft. max.
- 6 ft. = 14 ft. max.).

• 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
not be visible from the outside. They may be located by
examining the inside of the female ends.

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 6 in. (152mm)
horizontal run of vent with a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise run towards
the termination. Each 1 ft. (305mm) of horizontal venting
must include a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise. 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.
(3) For installations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior
of the building, a snorkel kit is available with a 14 in.
(356mm) and a 36 in. (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.

NOTES:
(1) The four wood screws provided should be replaced with
appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or
other types of sidings.
(2) A termination cap with a built-in vinyl siding standoff is
highly recommended on a building with vinyl siding. The
pilot hole will be 2 in. (51mm) closer to the bottom of the
square than the top. Using a framing square, draw a 14
in. x 14 in. (356mm x 356mm) square around the pilot

(NOTE: Some termination caps may cause the vent
pipe to be off center on flashing). Ensure that proper
clearances to combustible materials are maintained.
If you are not using an approved termination cap with
a built-in standoff on a building with vinyl siding, a
vinyl siding standoff should be installed between the
termination cap and the exterior wall (Figure 5.8). Follow
manufacturer’s instructions for attaching the vinyl siding
standoff to the horizontal termination cap. The vinyl
siding standoff prevents excessive heat from possibly
melting the vinyl siding material. The vent terminal cap
shall not be recessed into a wall or siding. Remove
siding from the area where the standoff will be located.
Note: The attachment from the vent pipe to the vent cap
must be sealed with silicone. Venting terminals shall not be
recessed into a wall or siding.

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).
WARNING
Do NOT connect a pipe section to a termination cap without
using the telescoping fl ue section found on the termination cap.

Figure 5.10
Step 1.
Check the installation instructions for required 1 in. (25mm)
clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing
through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or
other nearby combustible surfaces. See page 16, Figure
5.16 Check the instructions below for maximum vertical rise
of the venting system, and any maximum horizontal offset
limitations. All offsets must fall within the set parameters of
the vent graph (Figure 5.2) located on page 11.
NOTE: Maximum vertical rise allowable is 40 ft. (12m)
Figure 5.11).
NOTE: Maximum number of 45° elbows permitted for a
vertical installation is eight, provided their installation
does not decrease maximum allowable horizontal run (as
specified by vent graph, on page 11).
Figure 5.11
Step 2.
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, on the next
page, to avoid cutting loadbearing members. When location
is determined, drill small hole.

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.

Step 3.
To install the round support box/wall thimble cover in a flat
ceiling, cut a 10 in. (254mm) square hole in the ceiling,
centered on the hole drilled in Step 2. Frame the hole as
shown in Figure 5.13.
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.
(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 table, Figure 4.3, on page 8 of this manual.

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
Figure 5.14
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 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 wall thimble is required.
This allows the retro connector to mount directly on the
masonry and provide the correct clearances to combustibles
(Figure 5.25).

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.

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 5.26).
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.

E. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUESOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glassThis is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms,
this condensation will disappear.
Blue fl amesThis 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 applianceWhen 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 glassThis 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 noiseNoise 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.
SymptomPossible CauseCorrective 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 one-eighth (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.

Check the burner orifi ce for stoppage. Remove stoppage.
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 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 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.
