This vented gas replace is a sealed combustion gas replace designed for residential applications. This replace must be installed with

INNOVATIVE HEARTH PRODUCTS vent pipe components and terminations.

This fireplace complies with the National Safety Standards and is listed and tested by the PFS Corporation to ANSI Z21.50/CSA 2.22 standard as vented gas replace and applicable sections of Z21.97 standard for outdoor decorative gas appliance (When installed as a see-thru unit using outdoor kit model LDSTO).

NOTICE: Decorative product not for use as a heating appliance.

This replace must be installed by a qualied (certied or licensed) service person. It brings

in fresh air for combustion through the outer pipe and combustion gases are exhausted through the inner pipe. If the glass door assembly and venting pipe are not properly seated, connected and sealed, carbon monoxide leakage (spillage) can occur.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of

carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the u,

with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If you

have these signs, the replace may not be

working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have replace serviced. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the

inuence of alcohol and those at high altitudes.

Natural and Propane/LP Gas: Natural and propane/LP gas are odorless. An odor-making agent is added to the gas. The odor helps you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to the gas can fade. Gas may be present even though no odor exists.

PRODUCT FEATURES

These are a few facts that can help you un-

derstand and enjoy your direct vent replace:

• The venting system may be routed to the

outside of your home in several ways. It may vent through the roof (vertical) or it may vent to an outside/exterior wall (horizontal). The vent pipe installation is very important to allow for proper operation. You must follow the venting instructions very carefully for either vertical or horizontal applications.

• This replace may be installed in any room

of your house provided all local codes and these installation instructions are followed.

Flue Collar

Nailing Flange

• Each time you turn on your replace, you

may notice some amount of condensation

on the inside of the replace glass. This

is normal and will disappear after 10-20 minutes of operation.

• Your direct vent gas fireplace system

(replace and venting) is a balanced and

sealed gas operating unit. It requires approximately 10-20 minutes of operating

time before the ame pattern stabilizes.

PRE-INSTALLATION

LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS

Determine the safest and most efcient location for your direct vent replace. Make sure

that rafters and wall studs are not in the way of the venting system. Choose a location where the heat output is not affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or doors. Be aware of all restrictions and precautions before deciding the exact location for your

replace and termination cap. When deciding the location of your replace,

follow these rules:

• Do not connect this replace venting to a chimney ue serving a separate solid-fuel burning replace or appliance.

• Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in high trafc areas, windy or drafty

areas or near furniture or draperies.

• Proper clearances must be maintained.

• If your replace is to be installed directly on

carpeting, vinyl tile or any combustible material other than wood, it must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width

and depth of the replace (see Figure 6).

• If standoff spacers are attached to your replace, these spacers can be placed

directly against wall or framing material. See framing details, page 8.

• When locating termination cap, it is important to observe the minimum clearances shown in Figure 7, page 10.

• Do not recess termination cap into a wall

or siding.

• You may paint the termination cap with

450º F (232º C) heat-resistant paint to

coordinate with the exterior nish.

• There must not be any obstruction such as

bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the termination cap and the front of outside air vent.

• Do not locate termination cap and outside

air vent where excessive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to clear vent termination area after snow falls to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, do not direct snow towards vent termination area.

CLEARANCES

Minimum clearances to combustibles for the

replace are as follows:

*Back and sides 1" Perpendicular walls 8" Floor (From bottom of Fireplace) 0" Ceiling (From bottom of Fireplace) 63"

Top of Enclosure

(From bottom of Fireplace) 63" Top of Standoffs 0" Vent 1" (See venting instructions for specic venting clearances.)

* For back and sides of replace, do not pack

with insulation or other materials.

NOTICE: This replace is intended for use as supplemental heat.

Use this replace along with

your primary heating system.

Do not install this replace as

your primary heat source. If you have a central heating system, you may run system’s circulat-

ing blower while using replace.

This will help circulate the heat throughout the house.

FRAMING AND FINISHING

Figure 2, page 8 shows typical framing of this

replace. Figure 3, page 8 shows framing for

VENTING INSTALLATION

NOTICE: Read these instructions completely before attempting installation.

These models are tested and approved for use with an IHP (direct vent) pipe components and terminations.

The venting system must terminate on the outside of the structure and can not be at-

tached to a chimney or ue system serving a

separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. A direct vent appliance must have its own venting system. DO NOT common vent this appliance.

These models are approved to be vented either horizontally through an outside wall or vertically through a roof or chase enclosure using the following guidelines:

• When venting system terminates horizontally on an outside wall, you may install a standoff if the termination cap is to be

installed directly on a combustible nish

such as vinyl, wood, stucco, etc.

• Never run the vent downward as this may

cause excessive temperatures which could

cause a re.

• Vent pipe air space clearances to com-

bustibles are 1" on all sides except on the horizontal sections, which requires 2" clearance from the top of the pipe. Where the termination cap penetrates a combustible wall, 1" air space clearance is required.

• Have replace and selected vent components on hand to help determine the exact measurements when elbowing or offsetting.

Always use wall restops when penetrating walls and restops when penetrating ceil-

ings or attic spaces.

• For installation of replace at elevations of

4000 feet or greater, pay special attention to venting requirement recommendations.

WARNING: Read all instructions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life.

NOTICE: Do not seal termination cap to vent pipe. Cap must be removable for vent inspection and maintenance.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

• Wear gloves and safety glasses for

protection

• Use extreme caution when using ladders

or when on roof tops

• Be aware of electrical wiring locations in

walls and ceilings The following actions will void the warranty on your venting system:

• Installation of any damaged venting

component

• Unauthorized modication of the venting

system (Do not cut or alter vent components)

• Installation of any component part not

manufactured or approved by INNOVATIVE

HEARTH PRODUCTS

• Installation other than as instructed by

these instructions

WARNING: This gas replace and vent assembly must be vented directly to the outside. The venting system must NEVER be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use a separate vent system. Do not use common vent systems.

WARNING: Vent pipe air space clearances to combus-

tibles are 1" on all sides except

on the horizontal sections, which require 2" clearances from the top of the pipe. Where the termination cap penetrates a combustible wall, 1" air space clearance is required.

NOTICE: Failure to follow these instructions will void the warranty.

Vent Opening

Combustible Wall

Vent Opening

Noncombustible Wall

There are two basic types of direct vent installation:

• Horizontal Termination

• Vertical Termination

Horizontal Termination Installation

IMPORTANT: Horizontal square terminations

require only inner portion of wall restop.

Horizontal installations using round termina-

tion require exterior portion of wall restop.

1. Set replace in its desired location and de-

termine the route your horizontal venting

will take. Do not secure replace until all

venting has been installed. Some instal-

lations require sliding replace in and out of position to make nal venting connec-

tions. Figures 11 and 12 on page 13 show

different congurations for venting with

horizontal termination that will help you decide which application best suits your installation. Check to see if wall studs or roof rafters are in the path of your desired venting route. If they are, you may want

to adjust location of replace.

2. Direct vent pipe sections and components are designed with special twist-lock connections.

Twist-Lock Procedure: Female ends of

pipes have locking lugs (indentations). These lugs will slide straight into match-

ing slots on male ends of adjacent pipes.

Push pipe sections together and twist one section clockwise approximately onequarter turn until sections are fully locked (see Figure 8).

Note: Horizontal runs of vent must be sup-

ported every three feet. Use wall straps for this purpose.

3. Assemble desired combination of pipe

and elbows to replace ue collar. If there

are long portions of venting run, preassembled pipe sections may be installed as subassemblies for convenience.

4. Carefully determine location where vent pipe assembly will penetrate outside wall. Center of hole should line up with center line of horizontal vent pipe. Mark wall for an 11 1/2" x 11 1/2" square hole. Cut and frame square hole in exterior wall where vent will be terminated. If wall being pen-

5. Noncombustible Exterior Wall: Position horizontal vent cap in center of the 8 1/2" round hole and attach to exterior wall with four wood screws provided. Before attaching vent cap to exterior wall, run a bead of non-hardening mastic (pliable sealant) around outside edges to make a seal between it and outside wall.

Note: Four wood screws provided should

be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete or other types of sidings (see Figure 10).

Combustible Exterior Wall: For vinyl

siding, stucco or wood exteriors, a siding standoff may be installed between vent cap and exterior wall. Siding standoff prevents excessive heat from damaging siding materials. Siding material must be cut to accommodate standoff. Bolt vent cap to standoff. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of standoff. Position standoff/cap assembly in the center of 11 1/2" square hole and attach to exterior wall with provided wood screws (see Figure 11). Siding standoff must sit

ush against exterior fascia material.

6. Connecting Vent Cap with Horizontal Vent Pipe: Slide wall restop over vent

pipe before connecting horizontal run to vent cap (see Figure 12).

Apply Mastic to All Four Sides

Vertical High Wind Termination Installation

Note: Vertical restrictor must be installed in all vertical installations.

1. Determine route your vertical venting

will take. If ceiling joists, roof rafters or

other framing will obstruct venting system, consider an offset (see Figure 16) to avoid cutting load bearing members. Note: Pay

special attention to these installation instructions for required clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, etc. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Also note maximum vertical rise of venting system and any maximum horizontal offset limitations.

2. Set replace in desired location. Drop a

plumb line down from ceiling to position

of replace exit ue. Mark center point

where vent will penetrate ceiling. Drill a small locating hole at this point.

3. Drop a plumb line from inside of roof to locating hole in ceiling. Mark center point where vent will penetrate roof. Drill a small locating hole at this point.

Flat Ceiling Installation

1. Cut a 11 1/2" square hole in ceiling using locating hole as a center point. Opening should be framed to 11 1/2" x 11 1/2" inside dimensions, as shown in Figure 9 on page 12 using framing lumber the same size as

ceiling joists. If area above ceiling is an insulated ceiling or an attic, nail restop

from top side. This prevents loose insulation from falling into required clearance space. If area above ceiling is a living

space, install restop below framed hole.

Firestop should be installed with no less than three nails per side (see Figure 17).

If area above is an attic or insulated area,

install restop above framed hole.

2. Assemble desired lengths of pipe and

elbows necessary to reach from replace ue up through restop. Be sure all pipe

and elbow connections are fully twistlocked (see Figure 8, page 12).

3. Cut a hole in the roof using locating hole as a center point. (Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof.) The 11 1/2" x 11 1/2" hole must be

measured on the horizontal; actual length

may be larger depending on pitch of roof. There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials. Frame opening as shown in Figure 9 page 12.

4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through hole.

Note: If an offset is needed to avoid

obstructions, you must support vent pipe every 3 feet. Use wall straps for this purpose (see Figure 14, page 15). Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restric-

tion to the ow of ue gases.

5. Place ashing over pipe section(s) extending through roof. Secure base of

ashing to roof and framing with roong nails. Be sure roong material overlaps top edge of ashing as shown in Figure

16. There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials.

6. Continue to add pipe sections until height of vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements described in Figure 7 on page 10.

Note: You must increase vent height for

steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining

rooines, steep pitched roofs and other

similar factors may cause poor draft or down-drafting in high winds. Increasing vent height may solve this problem.

7. Twist-lock vent cap onto last section of vent pipe.

Note: If vent pipe passes through any occupied

areas above rst oor, including storage spaces

and closets, you must enclose pipe. You may frame and sheetrock enclosure with standard construction material. Make sure and meet the minimum allowable clearances to combustibles.

Do not ll any required air spaces with insulation.

Vertical Termination Congurations

FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

CHECK GAS TYPE

Use proper gas type for the replace unit you are installing. If you have conicting gas types, do not install replace. See retailer where you purchased the replace for proper replace

according to your gas type.

INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO FIREPLACE LOCATION

WARNING: A qualified

service person must connect

replace to gas supply. Follow

all local codes.

CAUTION: For propane/LP units, never connect replace directly to the propane/LP supply.

This heater requires an external

regulator (not supplied). Install

the external regulator between the replace and propane/LP

supply.

WARNING: For natural

gas, never connect replace to

private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas.

Installation Items Needed

Before installing replace, make sure you

have the items listed below.

• external regulator (supplied by installer)

• piping (check local codes)

• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

• equipment shutoff valve *

• test gauge connection *

• sediment trap

• tee joint

• pipe wrench

• approved exible gas line with gas connec-

tor (if allowed by local codes)

* An equipment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the equipment shutoff valve from your retailer.

For propane/LP connection only, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11" and 14" of w.c. pressure. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure,

replace regulator damage could occur. Install

external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 19. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.

CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow

proper gas volume to replace.

If pipe is too small, undue loss of volume will occur.

Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve, union and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up.

NPT tap must be upstream from replace (see

Figure 21, page 20). IMPORTANT: Install main gas valve (equip-

ment shutoff valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the appliance.

Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating equipment shutoff

valve to replaces. Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT

threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could

result in clogged replace valves.

Drip Leg

WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg in supply line as shown in Figure

21. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping

system between fuel supply and replace.

Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps

them from going into replace gas controls. If

sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is in-

stalled wrong, replace may not run properly.

CONNECTING FIREPLACE TO GAS SUPPLY

Installation Items Needed

• 5/16" hex socket wrench or nut-driver

• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas, not

provided)

1. Route exible gas line (provided by installer) from equipment shutoff valve to

replace. Route exible gas supply line

through one of the access holes on side

of replace.

2. Attach exible gas line from gas supply to

control valve (see Figure 22).

3. Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Connections, page 21.

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame

patterns often.

PILOT ASSEMBLY

The pilot assembly is factory preset for the

proper ame. Alterations may have occurred

during shipping and handling. The pilot is located on right hand side of burner.

The ame must envelope 1/4" of top of the

ignitor/sensor and grounding stem. If your pilot assembly does not meet these

requirements:

• Turn the adjustment screw marked PILOT

clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise

to increase the ame to proper size (see Figure 39). Do not remove the adjustment

screw.

• see Troubleshooting, page 34

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

Burner ames will be steady, not lifting or oating. Flame patterns will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on installation type and weather conditions.

If the vent conguration is installed incorrectly, ames will lift or "ghost". This can be dangerous. Inspect ames after installation to ensure

proper installation and performance.

If burner ame pattern differs from that described:

• turn replace off (see To Turn Off Gas to

Appliance), page 27

• see Troubleshooting, page 34

CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burners and circulating air passageways of

replace clean. Inspect these areas of replace before each use. Have replace inspected yearly by a qualied service

person. Fireplace may need more frequent cleaning due to

excessive lint from carpeting,

bedding material, pet hair, etc.

www.SuperiorFireplaces.US.com

GLASS DOORS

WARNING: Handle glass door panels with care. Do not strike, slam or otherwise abuse

glass. Do not operate replace

with the glass door unlatched, removed, cracked or broken.

WARNING: Do not use abrasive cleaners as this may damage glass. Use a nonabrasive household glass cleaner to clean glass. Do not clean glass when hot.

Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up it is normal for condensation to form on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust and

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Continued

other airborne particles to cling to the glass

surface. During initial start-up a slight lm may

form on the glass due to paint curing. The glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, nonabrasive household clean-

er and warm water after the rst two weeks

of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times during each heating season, depending on the usage and circumstances present. Refer to Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page 22 of this manual when removing glass door for cleaning.

WARNING: Only parts supplied by the manufacturer should be used when replacing broken or damaged glass door panels (see Replacement Parts, page 33). Glass door panel are complete units. No substitute materials may be used.

CAUTION: Wear gloves and safety glasses while handling or removing broken glass. Do not remove if glass is hot. Keep children and pets away from glass.

If glass has been broken, carefully remove glass door (see Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page 22). Vacuum all glass pieces with a shop vac.

CAUTION: Do not vacuum if pieces are hot.

Use only glass door replacement intended for this replace (see Replacement Parts, page 42 for detail on ordering). No substitutions may be made. See Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page 22 for instructions for replacing glass doors.

WARNING: Do not operate replace with glass door unlatched, removed, cracked or broken.

PILOT AND BURNERS

• Remove material before cleaning burners

and replace when cleaning is complete.

• Burner and controls should be cleaned with

compressed air to remove dust, dirt or lint.

• Use a vacuum cleaner or small, soft bristled

brush to remove excess dust, dirt or lint.

VENTING SYSTEM

Conduct annual inspection of the venting system following these guidelines:

1. Check areas of venting system that are exposed to the weather for corrosion (rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes). Have these items replaced im-

mediately by a qualied service person.

2. Remove the vent cap and shine a ash-

light into the vent. Remove any foreign material.

3. Check for evidence of excessive condensation. Continuous condensation can

cause corrosion of caps, pipes and ttings

and can be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many elbows or exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.

4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section or tting has been disturbed and loos-

ened. Check mechanical supports such as wall straps for rigidity.

REPLACING LIGHT BULBS

1. Unplug power

2. Remove access door (see Figure 34,

page 25).

3. Remove glass door (see Figure 28,

page 23).

4. Remove rear interior wall (see Figure

31, page 24).

5. Remove six screws holding pebble pan.

6. Using a small slotted screwdriver, care-

fully slide it under edge of light cover and pry it open.

7. Pull bulb out carefully and replace with

bulb G9 120V/20W.

8. To replace, follow steps in the reverse

order.
