GENERAL VENTING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE NOTE: In order to comply with applicable
codes and product warranties, only Simpson Dura­Vent (SDV), Hearth & Home Technologies (HTI) venting components, or Security Chimney's Secure Vent Chimney System may be used. DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED VENTING COMPONENTS. The Garnet 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 a Simpson Dura-Vent adapter is used (for USA installations only). Only use Simpson Dura-Vent, or HTI components labeled and listed on page 14.
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 stove exhaust out of the system, and the outer pipe brings fresh combustion air into the stove. ! A wall thimble is required when the venting passes through a wall. ! A support box or firestop is required when the venting passes through a ceiling. ! Roof flashing and a storm collar are required when venting passes through the roof. Follow instructions provided with the venting for installation of these items.
IMPORTANT: Read all these instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to follow instructions may create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void the warranty. Be sure to follow these installation instructions for venting and clearance to combustible requirements, which may vary from one installation to another. Do not extend the venting system in excess of the distance prescribed in these manufacturer’s installation instructions. This gas appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS:
The Quadra-Fire Garnet is an engineered product that has been designed and tested. The warranty will be voided, and serious fire, health, or other safety hazards may result from any of the following actions: Installation of any damaged venting component, unauthorized modification of the venting system, installation of any component part not approved by Hearth & Home Technologies, or installation other than as instructed by these instructions. Consult your local building codes before beginning this installation.
WARNING: Always maintain the required clearances (air space) to nearby combustibles to avoid creating a fire hazard. Do not fill air space with insulation. Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible surfaces is 1” (2.5cm). Be sure to check the horizontal vent termination clearance requirements from decks, windows, soffits, gas regulators, air supply inlets and public walkways, as specified on page 20 of these installation instructions, the vertical termination requirements on page 18, 19 and 27, and local building codes.
The gas heater and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. This direct vent gas fireplace must use its own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.

INSTALLATION METHODS & NOTES
GARNET DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER
Four types of direct vent system installations are approved for use with the Garnet.
1. Horizontal Termination (Fig. 1, page 15)
2. Vertical Termination (Fig. 2, page 18)
3. Into a Class A Metal Chimney (Fig. 3, page 18) USA installations only
4. Into a Masonry Chimney (Fig. 4, page 19) USA installations only
Do not connect to a chimney serving a separate solid­fuel burning appliance.
In each of these installation methods, it is very important to maintain a balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust venting system.
Note: Certain limitations as to vent and vertical termination configurations apply, and must be strictly adhered to.
When planning your installation, it is necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular requirements.
1. For installations with any horizontal vent run or
horizontal termination, refer to the Vent Graph on page

each floor level. If an offset is needed in the attic, additional pipe and elbows will be required. When determining the position of the stove, be sure to adhere to minimum clearance to combustibles to the appliance itself. (See page 7, Minimum Clearances to Combustibles.)
3. When installing this appliance into an existing masonry chimney, it is important to carefully measure the length of flex needed to reach from the appliance outlet to the termination cap. If the flex length is too short, a flex coupler will be needed to attach an additional length of flex liner to make up the difference. If the flex length is too long, the liner could sag below the appliance outlet, which could result in an airflow restriction causing flow reversal or flame lift.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THE INSTALLER
Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection when installing this stove. Exercise extreme caution when using ladders or on rooftops around power lines. Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings.
NOTE: Be sure to take into consideration the wall thickness when calculating your venting needs.
2. To determine the length of pipe required for vertical
installations, measure the distance from the stove flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height above the roofline. Refer to the vertical vent termination tables on page 27 for this information. For two-story applications, fire stops are required at

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
Venting conguration will determine which Trim Ring you use in your installation. Review Figures A, B and C on
Page 17. Figures A and B can use either Trim Ring, while Figure C REQUIRES the Ventilated Trim Ring.
ASSEMBLING SLIM LINE TRIM RING
and HEAT SHIELD
1. Choose the appropriate Trim Ring for your installation. Lay on at surface and bend up the 6 welded brackets into a 90 degree position. The brackets along the outer edge of the ring are for locating the ring in the center of the hole.
See Fig. 1.
2. The Heat Shield is shipped at and must be hand bent into a half circle before attaching to Trim Ring. Bend Heat Shield. See Fig. 2. Note: Wear leather gloves when bending the Heat Shield to prevent injury.
Fig. 1 Solid Trim Ring Shown
Fig. 2 Bending Heat Shield
3. Attach the Heat Shield to the Trim Ring with the four screws provided. Screws go through the Heat Shield and into the brackets on the Trim Ring. See Fig. 3.
INSTALLING SLIM LINE TRIM RING
and HEAT SHIELD
1. Measure from oor to center line of the vent pipe. Cut out a 9-1/2" hole in the wall. Hold the Trim Ring/Heat Shield Assembly in place and place a mark on the shield with a black marker where it protrudes through the exterior wall.
See Fig. A on Page 17.
2. Use that mark as a guide to trim off excess Heat Shield with a pair of sheet metal shears.
Note: When installing the Trim Ring/Heat Shield assembly make sure the Trim Ring is centered in the hole and that the shield is above the pipe. There must be a minimum of 3/4" minimum clearance maintained to combustibles from the top of the Heat Shield. See Fig. 4.
3.
Ensure that framing on the inside of the wall is a minimum
inner framing diameter of 10" x 10".

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
Step 1.
Determine the desired location of the stove. Check to ensure that wall studs or roof rafters are not in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the location of the stove.
Step 2.
Simpson Dura-Vent pipe is designed with special twist­lock connections. To connect the venting system to the stove flue outlet, a twist-lock adapter is built into the stove at the factory. Remember to include wall thickness in minimum clearances when figuring the measurements for your installation needs.
Note: Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations, located
on the female ends of pipes and fittings, are designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings by orienting the four pipe indentations so they match and slide into the four entry slots on the male ends, see Fig. 5 below. 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 will not be visible from the outside, on the pipe or fittings. They may be
located by examining the inside of the female ends.
GARNET DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER
Step 3.
For installations using a Wall Thimble Dura-Vent Part #942, mark the wall for a 10” x 10” (25.4m x 25.4m) square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe, as shown in Fig. 6. 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” (17.8cm) diameter hole is acceptable.
FIG. 6
FIG. 5
Female Locking Lugs
Male Locking Lugs
NOTE:
Horizontal runs of vent must be supported every 3’ (91cm). Wall straps are available for this purpose.
Horizontal sections require a 1/4" (6mm) rise for every 12" (30.5cm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6 5/8" (177mm); Inner Vent Diameter = 4" (10.2cm).
NOTE:
(1) Installation requires a minimum of 6" (15.2cm) horizontal
run of vent with a 1/4” (6mm) rise run towards the termination. Each 1’ (30.5cm) of horizontal venting must include a 1/4” rise. Never allow the vent to run downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a 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 page 20.
(3) For installations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior
of the building, HTI RHVK Snorkel Kit #844-8920, 14” (35.5cm) or 36” (91cm) tall snorkel terminations are available. 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 vent termination in the center of the 10" x 10" (25.4cm x 25.4cm) 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 (Fig. 7)
FIG. 7
FIG. 8-A
FIG. 8-B
NOTES:
(1) The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types
of sidings.
(2) Termination Cap HHW2 (HTI Part #841-0670) is highly recommended on a building with vinyl siding, as the vinyl siding
standoff is built in. The pilot hole will be 2 inches closer to the bottom of the square than the top. Using a framing square, draw a 14" x 14" square around the pilot hole. See Fig. 8-A. (NOTE: If you are installing Termination Cap HHW2, the pipe
will be off center on the flashing). Ensure that proper clearances to combustible materials are maintained. If you are using
Simpson Dura-vent termination cap #985 on a building with vinyl siding, a vinyl siding standoff (Simpson Dura-vent Part #950), should be installed between the vent cap and the exterior wall (Fig. 8-B). Attach the vinyl siding standoff to the horizontal vent termination. The vinyl siding standoff prevents excessive heat from possibly melting the vinyl siding material. Vent terminal shall not be recessed into a wall or siding. Remove siding from behind area of standoff.
Step 5.
Slide the stove and vent assembly towards the wall, carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extend into the vent cap a sufficient distance so as to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1” (32mm). Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from the vent 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 (Fig. 9).
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.

INSTALLATION VENT GRAPH
1. Measure the vertical distance from the center line of the flue pipe 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 flue vent to the center of the 90° elbow is 7’ (2.13m), the horizontal run to the outer wall flange must not exceed 11’10” (360.8cm)
4. Each 90° elbow is equivalent to 3' of vent pipe and each 45° elbow is equivalent to 1' of vent pipe, and must be subtracted from the vent pipe run. A single horizontal to vertical 90° elbow is already calculated into the allowable 15' run. Each additional 90° elbow reduces the maximum horizontal distance by 3'.
Example: The use of 3 elbows would reduce the allowable
horizontal run to 9' (3 - 1 = 2 elbows x 3' = 6';
15' max. - 6' = 9' max.)
VERTICAL DISTANCE FROM APPLIANCE TO 90° ELBOW
NOTE: IF YOUR INSTALLATION FALLS WITHIN A SHADED AREA ON THE GRAPH, A DAMPER MUST BE INSTALLED. SEE INFORMATION ON DAMPER INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT ON PAGE 24.
NOTE: In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the word damper shall be replaced with the words ue restrictor.
250-6443B October 7, 2003 Page 23
EXAMPLE 2: If the vertical dimension from the center line
of the flue vent is 21’ (6.4m), the horizontal run to the outer wall flange must not exceed 7'10" (238.7cm).
NOTES
The maximum horizontal vent run is 15’ (4.57m) when the vertical vent rise is 10’ (3.05m).
The minimum horizontal vent run is 6” (15.2cm).
Minimum wall thickness is 4” (10.2cm). Horizontal sections require a 1/4” (6mm) rise for every 12” (30.5cm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6-5/8” (177mm); Inner Vent Diameter = 4” (10.2cm)
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support every 3’ (91cm), e.g. plumbing tape.
EXCEPTIONS
FOR HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS:
The maximum horizontal vent run is 6'
(182.8cm)
The maximum horizontal vent run with a 45° elbow is 5' (152.4cm)
No external minimum rise is required.
The minimum horizontal vent run is 6" (15.2 cm).
For any vertical termination a minimum of 6' (182.8cm) vertical must be used.

DAMPER INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT
WHEN YOUR INSTALLATION FALLS WITHIN A SHADED AREA ON THE VENT GRAPH (PAGE
23). A DAMPER MUST BE INSTALLED FOR PROPER OPERATION. (In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the word damper shall be replaced with the words ue restrictor.)
Installation of the damper requires the removal of the bafe. Remove the bafe by removing the 4 screws holding the bafe in place. (Two screws in back and one on each side). Angle the bafe slightly and remove from rebox (Fig. 1).
The two screws holding the bottom of the bafe in place also hold the damper in place. After removing the bafe remove the two screws located at the back of the rebox. See Fig. 2. (These will also be used to secure the bafe in place.) Hold the damper in position and install the four screws to hold it in place. See Fig. 3. Leave the lower screws loose enough to slide bafe over them. Slide the bafe back into position. Tighten the screws and re-install the screws on the sides.

VERTICAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
USING GS SERIES PIPE
Step 1.
Check the installation instructions for required 1” (25mm) clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces. See page 27, Fig. 16. Do not pack air space with insulation. 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 located on page 23.
NOTE: Maximum vertical rise allowable is 35’ (10.7m) (Fig. 10).
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 23).

Step 2.
Set the gas stove in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob
down from the ceiling to the position of the stove 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 stove, or to offset, as shown in Fig. 11, page
25 to avoid cutting loadbearing members.
Step 3.
To install the round support box/wall thimble in a flat ceiling, cut a 10" (25.4cm) square hole in the ceiling, centered on the hole drilled in Step 2. Frame the hole as shown in Fig. 13.
FIG. 13
of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the ceiling support box 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’ (91.4cm) to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose, Fig. 11, page 25.
(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 Fig. 14. Verify that the chimney is the required height above the roof. See Roof Pitch Table on page 27 of this manual
Step 4.
Assemble the desired lengths of GS pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the stove up through the round support box. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their fully twist-locked position. Be sure to seal the outer pipe with appropriate sealant (high temperature silicone).
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

Step 7.
Continue to assemble pipe sections until the height of the vent cap (H) (Fig. 15) 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 Table 1 below. 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 may solve this problem.

Step 8.
Twist-lock the vent cap and seal.
Note:
(1) For multi-story vertical installations, a ceiling
firestop (SDV part #963) is required at the second floor, and any subsequent floors (Fig.
16). The opening should be framed to 10” x 10” (25.4cm x 25.4cm) inside dimensions, in the same manner as shown in Fig. 13, page 26.
(2) Any occupied areas above the first floor,
including closets and storage spaces, which the vertical vent passed through must be enclosed. The enclosure may be framed and sheetrocked with standard construction materials; however, refer to these installation instructions for the minimum allowable clearance between the outside of the vent pipe and the combustible surfaces of the enclosure. Do not fill any of the required air space with insulation.

Step 1.
Follow installation Steps 1 and 2 under vertical termination section, pages 25 and 26.
Step 2.
Using the plumb-bob, mark the centerline of the venting system on the ceiling, and drill a small hole through the ceiling and roof at this point. From the roof, locate the drill hole and mark the outline of the cathedral ceiling support box.
Step 3.
Remove shingles or other roof covering as necessary to cut the rectangular hole for the support box. Cut the hole 1/8” (3mm) larger than the support box outline.
FIG. 17
Step 4.
Lower the support box through the hole in the roof until the bottom of the box protrudes at least 2” (51cm) below the ceiling (Fig. 17). Align the support box both vertically and horizontally with a level. Temporarily tack the support box in place through the inside walls and into the roof sheathing.
Step 5.
Using tin snips, cut the support box from the top corners down to the roofline, and fold the resulting flaps over the roof sheathing (Fig. 18). Before nailing it to the roof, run a bead of non-hardening mastic around the top edges of the support box to make a seal between it and the roof. Clean out any combustible material from inside the support box.
Step 6.
Complete the cathedral ceiling installation by following the same procedures outlined in steps 4 through 8 for vertical terminations, pages 26 & 27.

INSTALLATION INTO A CLASS A METAL CHIMNEY (USA ONLY)
GARNET DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER
NOTE: Have the existing installation inspected by
a qualified chimney sweep or professional installer prior to converting to direct vent. The existing chimney system must be in serviceable condition and functionally sound and clean.
Step 1.
Remove existing chimney cap.
Step 2.
Measure the distance from the top of the chimney to the bottom of the ceiling support box, add 3” (76mm) to this measurement, and cut a section of 4” (101mm) flex pipe to that length (the flex should be extended to its nominal length).
Step 3.
Connect the end of the flex pipe section to the underside of the top adapter (SDV #985K, 986K or 987K), using four sheet metal screws (Fig. 19).
FIG. 19
Step 4.
Pass the flex pipe down through the center of the chimney system, and center the top adapter on the top of the chimney pipe. Drill four 1/8” (3mm) diameter holes through the top adapter, and into the chimney top. Ensure that you are drilling into the metal on the chimney. Twist lock the high wind termination cap (SDV #991) onto the top adapter (Figs. 20 and 21).
FIG. 20

Step 5.
Pull the flexpipe down through the ceiling support box, until it protrudes approximately 3" (76mm). Connect the flex pipe to the retro connector (SDV #909B), and attach with sheet metal screws.
Step 6.
Push the flex pipe back up into the ceiling support box, center the retro connector, and attach it to the support box with sheet metal screws.

INSTALLATION INTO AN EXISTING MASONRY CHIMNEY (USA ONLY)
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” (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” (254mm) square opening in the wall (centered around the 6” (152mm) masonry opening). If there is sheet rock only (no studs) in front of the masonry the 10” (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 (Fig. 22).
FIG. 22
Step 3.
Secure the flashing (SDV #705C) to the top of the masonry chimney using a bead of non-hardening sealant­adhesive. If the flashing is larger than the top of the chimney, cut and fold flashing as needed to fit chimney (Fig.
23).
Step 4.
To determine the length of flex needed, measure from 3” (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” (102mm) flex to this length (extended to its nominal length). Be sure to leave 2”-3” (51mm-76mm) of flex above the existing chimney to allow for connection to the termination kit.

250-6443B October 7, 2003 Page 30
NOTE: FOR HEARTH APPLICATIONS REFER TO PAGE 19 FOR THE USE OF THE 923GCL CO-AXIAL TO CO­LINEAR APPLIANCE CONNECTOR.
Step 5.
Connect the flex liner to the top adapter using three (3) sheet metal screws (Fig. 19, page 29).
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: Do not let the flex 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 fire hazard. The flex liner path should always be sloped up toward the termination cap.

Step 9.
Attach the flex to the retro connector. Use three sheet metal screws to attach the flex liner to the connector (Fig. 26). Mount the retro connector to the masonry wall using masonry bolts. Re-drill larger holes on connector as needed. Be careful to ensure that the connector is centered in the opening and the mounting holes line up with the masonry wall.
Step 10.
Slide wall thimble cover (SDV #940) over retro connector and secure with masonry bolts (Fig. 27). If you have a framed wall in front of the masonry, use wood screws to mount wall thimble cover to framed wall, over retro connector and 10” (25.4cm) square framed opening (Fig. 22, Page 30). If needed, add a section of direct vent pipe to the retro connector in order to extend through the opening in the wall thimble cover.
Step 11. The connection between the appliance and the retro connector may be completed with sections of direct vent pipe.

WARNING: If any other appliances have been previously attached to this masonry flue or an open fireplace, etc., all openings into flue should be sealed properly. It is very important that there is only one appliance on a vent system and that there are no air leaks into the masonry chimney itself other than the vent appliance venting.
WARNING: Failure to position the parts in accordance with these diagrams or failure to use only parts specifically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.

GAS LINE REQUIREMENTS
GARNET DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER
The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved); if not, follow NFGC ANSI 223.1 or CAN/ CGA-B149 and the requirements listed below.
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance with local building codes by a qualified installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the Commonwealth of Massachusettes installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.)
A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved) 1/2 inch (13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13mm) inlet of the control valve. NOTE: If substituting
for these components, please consult local codes for compliance. Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the stove.
The stove and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). For pressures under 1/2 psig (3.5kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shut-off valve. Be sure to bleed off test pressure before opening shut off.
After running new gas line, or if a gas line has been disconnected, purging of the gas line may be necessary. To purge gas line, open the inlet pressure tap and allow gas to flow through while carefully monitoring for the odor of either natural gas, which will rise, or propane, which will settle near the floor. As soon as you smell the gas, discontinue purging the line. Ensure that the room has plenty of ventilation and that no sparks or open flames are near the end of the gas line during the purging process. Do not try to ignite the stove until any and all gas accumulation has been cleared from the room.
CAUTION: In some areas, gas line pressure may be more than 1/2 PSIG (14”WC). If you believe that this is the case in your locality, contact your gas supplier or local utility company. Line pressure greater than 1/2 PSIG will damage the stove valve. You must install a regulator upstream from the stove if line pressure is greater than 1/2 PSIG.
Fuel
This unit is manufactured for use with natural gas. To convert to LP gas, use the LP Conversion Kit supplied with the stove.
Gas Line Connection
Before making the gas connection, ensure that the stove you are installing is designed for the type of gas being supplied. This information can be found on the Ratings Label attached to a beaded chain on the lower right hand side of the appliance. If the stove has been converted to propane (LP), the valve cover will have a label stating that the unit has been converted to propane. (See page 11, #5).
Connect the gas line at the 3/8” flex connector on the valve at the back of stove. See illustration on this page. We recommend connecting the stove with an approved flex gas line. If flex gas lines are not approved in your area, you must connect a hard pipe to the gas hookup.
You must supply a manual shutoff valve in a visible location within 3’ (91.4cm) of the stove.

If the pressure is not sufficient, ensure: 1) the piping used is large enough, 2) the supply regulator is adequately adjusted, and 3) that the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied. The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed above. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.
LEAK TEST
1. Turn on gas to the fireplace.
2. Turn on gas at the manual shutoff valve.
3. Use a leak detector to leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance.
4. Familiarize yourself with the control components, see page 36.
5. Follow Lighting Instructions on page 38 to light the pilot and then the main burner.
6. Leak test all gas joints again.
7. Check the pilot flame ensuring that it looks like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if necessary.
PLEASE NOTE: Fumes from curing paint and oil burning off the steel are a normal occurrence. Open windows to vent the area until fumes
dissipate.
Condensation appearing on the glass each time you start the stove cold is also normal. Blue Flames will occur on the initial start-up. After fifteen minutes the flames will become the yellow/orange flame color. Remote Wall Switch: If you install a remote wall switch or thermostat to operate the stove, leave the ON/OFF switch on
the stove control panel in the “OFF” position. Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the stove, even temporarily. The optional thermostat may start the fireplace causing a combustible item to ignite. If the stove turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want to adjust the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed, or relocate the thermostat further away from the stove.

OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read this entire manual prior to using the fireplace. Pay particular attention to the “Safety Precautions” section on page
5. Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
CONTROLS
FAN SPEED.............................. If the optional blower is installed, this knob controls the speed of the blower that pushes
the heated air into the room.
MAIN BURNER......................... This control is used to turn the stove on and off.
PILOT IGNITOR....................... The pilot ignitor is used only to start the pilot. When the valve control knob is turned to
the pilot position and fully depressed, it sends an electrical charge to the pilot assembly. This creates a blue spark directly next to the pilot, igniting the pilot flame.
VALVE CONTROL .................... This knob is used to control gas to the stove and for starting the pilot. There are three
positions, ON, OFF, & PILOT. The indicator on the valve indicates the position of the knob.
COMFORT CONTROL.............. This knob controls the flame height from low (“LO”) to high (“HI”).
NOTE: If using a remote control wall switch, or thermostat, the On/Off Switch must be left “OFF”. Turning the On/Off Switch
to “ON” will keep the stove on continually.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
Blower (Fan).............. If the optional blower kit is installed, the 75 cfm blower will circulate heated air into the living area. It
produces a whirring sound which increases in volume as the speed is increased.
Pilot Flame ................ The pilot flame remains on constantly and makes a “whisper” sound.
Gas control valve ..... As the valve opens and shuts down it will click.
Burner pan ................ The burner pan is located beneath the logs. It distributes the gas producing a clean, efficient and
aesthetic burn. As the main burner gets up to temperature a creaking sound will be heard. This is the expansion of the metal. The sound will cease once the stove is up to temperature but may return upon cool down.
Snap disc .................. This part may produce a clicking sound as the blower turns on and off if blower is left in the "ON"
position.
Heat Exchanger ........ A normal expansion and contraction (ticking) sound may be heard.
MAINTENANCE
Installation and repair should be done only by a qualified service agency. The appliance and venting systems should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified agency. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, pet hair, et cetera. It is imperative that control compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean. Note: If venting is disconnected for any reason, the vent-air intake system must be properly re-sealed and re-installed.
GLASS CLEANING
WARNING! DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT! TURN UNIT OFF AND ALLOW TO COOL. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE or CHEMICAL CLEANERS ON GLASS SURFACE! DO NOT OPERATE WITH THE GLASS FRONT REMOVED, CRACKED OR BROKEN! DO NOT STRIKE OR SLAM THE DOOR!
___Turn off pilot light. ___Open door by releasing two spring latches at the top of appliance door beneath the top, and lift door up. ___Using glass cleaner, wipe with soft cloth or clean paper towel until surface is dry. ___Re-light pilot. ___Re-attach door. ___Check burner operation.
NOTE: If you observe a white film on the door glass, use a hard water deposit glass cleaner or contact your dealer. The use of a glass cleaner will reduce the mineral deposits.

YEARLY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
WARNING! Failure to inspect and maintain the stove may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous situation. The following procedures are recommended to be completed by a qualified agency once per year, preferably prior to the burning season.
1. Check or replace ignitor battery. Ignitor requires 1 "AA" 1.5V Battery. (Pg. 42).
2.
Check the pilot flame. It should engulf approximately 3/8” of the top of the millivolt the top of the thermocouple and be 1" above the
generator and engulf
burner.
3. Shut off gas to the stove by turning the valve control knob to “OFF” and turning off the manual shutoff valve. Allow the stove to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the door.
4. Remove the logset (NOTE: The logs are fragile). If any log is cracked or deteriorated, replace it when reinstalling. Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting is found, the stove will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
5. Clean the burner with a soft brush vacuum attachment, (especially the burner holes) and inspect the following:
a. Check for burner holes that are cracked, plugged or deteriorated. b. Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage. If any
problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
6. Re-install the log set. Inspect the door glass, if the door glass is damaged, contact your dealer for a replacement. Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an airtight seal. If it does not, realign or replace the gasket to ensure an airtight seal. Re-install door.
7. Inspect the area behind the side panels. Check the gas control valve and all of the gas lines. If any damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
8. Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination, outside the house ensuring that the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed. Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found near the vent termination.
9. CAUTION! Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
10. Turn on gas and follow Lighting Instructions. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor the blower operation.

Ignition Module Access and Battery Replacement
The Ignition Module (automatic-ignitor) is located on the left side of the stove. This module was incorporated into the design of the Garnet DV to facilitate "one hand" lighting of the stove. When the gas control knob is turned to the "Pilot" position, and depressed, the ignitor should begin sparking immediately. If the ignitor does not begin sparking immediately, then it is in need of service.
The ignitor is located on a plate attached to the right side of the stove and is attached to the plate using two #8 Phillips head screws. To access the ignitor, remove the two screws securing the plate to the side of the stove and slide the plate out, as shown in picture at right.
The single "AA" 1.5V battery that powers the ignitor is located in the module. To replace the battery, open the battery compartment and remove old battery. Replace the battery making sure the polarity is correct.

Accessing Ignition Module
Glass Replacement
1. Turn stove OFF and let it cool down before replacing the glass.
2. Lift off stove top and set on at surface with the porcelain side up to prevent damage.
3. Remove stove front by sliding upwards in the grooves being careful not to chip the porcelain. Lay stove front face up on at surface.
4. Unhook the two latches now exposed on top of the stove.
5. Lower the glass frame and glass towards you and lift out of the two notches at the bottom left and right of the frame.
6. Remove glass from the frame. Lay new glass in place. (Glass will come with gasket on it).
7. Reinstall glass frame on the stove and secure the two latches on top of the stove.
8. Reinstall stove front and stove top.
NOTE: The glass & gasketing must be replaced as a complete unit as supplied by the manufacturer. WARNING! Do not use substitute material.
Shutter Adjustment
The shutter is located on the underside of the stove, on the right side. To adjust the shutter, loosen the 1/4" nut with a 7/16 wrench that is securing the shutter.
Moving the shutter bolt to the right closes the shutter. Moving the shutter bolt to the left, will open the shutter. Opening the shutter causes flames to become shorter and blue. Closing the shutter creates taller orange/yellow flames.
After adjustment, tighten nut to lock in place.

Stove Design
Many of the components within this gas stove are designed
specically for safety purposes. It is therefore imperative that only certied gas service technicians should service this appliance.
Burner Operation
A millivolt system controls the operation of this stove. The thermopile and thermocouple generate electricity when heated by the pilot ame. This electricity is used to operate the gas valve. Without enough electricity, the gas valve will not turn on. That is why, when starting the pilot, the gas control knob has to be pressed in long enough for the thermocouple to heat up and generate enough electricity. The thermopile provides power for the ON/OFF switch, remote control, or thermostat. Because the thermopile generates the electricity needed to turn the replace on and off, this stove can be operated when the power is out (although the blower will not run).
Gas Build Up Prevention Feature
This appliance’s utilization of a high-technology gas valve in conjunction with a pilot ame ensures that no gas builds up inside the rebox.
The thermocouple (next to the pilot) senses when the pilot ame is lit. If the pilot ames goes out, this thermocouple no longer generates electricity, causing the gas valve to automatically shut off all gas to the heater, preventing the pilot from spilling gas into the rebox.
