INTERNAL WALL INSTALLATION

CORNER INSTALLATION

FULL PROJECTION INSTALLATION

FLUSH INSTALLATION

The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54.

This fireplace complies with the National Safety Standards and is listed and tested by PFS Corporation to ANSI Z21.50/CSA 2.22 standard as vented gas replace.

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

WARNING: Installation of this

appliance should be done by

a qualied service person well

trained in the installation of such appliances. You will also need a building permit from your local Building and Safety Commissioner before installing this appliance; otherwise your insurance co. may not cover this appliance.

SELECTING LOCATION

To determine the safest and most efcient location for your appliance, you must take into consideration the following guidelines:

1. The location must allow for proper clearances (see Clearances, page 7).

2. Consider a location where heat output would not be affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or doors.

3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists or roof rafters will make installation easier. Figure 1 shows a plan view of a few common locations.

Flush installations are recommended where living space is limited or at a premium and since the space required to enclose the appliance would be located beyond an outside wall, this would also reduce the cutting of joists, roof rafters and such. Check local codes for any restrictions.

Projected installations can extend any

distance into the room. A projection may be ideal for a new addition on an existing, nished wall.

INTRODUCTION

CAUTION: Do not connect appliance before pressure testing gas piping. Damage to gas valve may result and an unsafe condition may be caused.

The appliance and it’s individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

For the purpose of input adjustment two pressure taps (for IN and OUT pressures) are provided on the gas control valve for test gauge connections to the appliance.

Corner installations make use of space that may not normally be used and provides a wider and more efcient range for radiant heat transference.

Internal wall installations provide a discreet option for room separation and can also be ideal as an addition to an existing wall.

VENTING INSTALLATION

A B-type venting system must be connected to appliance for venting to the outside of

building.

The following section is provided as a guide to a standard B-type vent installation.

Standing codes requirements concerning Btype vent installations may vary within your state, province or local codes jurisdiction. Therefore, it is recommended that you check with your local building codes for specic requirements or in absence of local codes, follow Section 7.0 of the current National Fuel

Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

This gas appliance must be vented to the outdoors only and may not be terminated into an attic space or into a chimney ue servicing a solid-fuel burning appliance.

This appliance may be vented through a manufactured chimney system or a masonry chimney using a B-vent adapter or a chimney liner system if all are listed, inspected and approved by local codes and/or building authorities.

The examples shown in Figure 10, page 11 are typical of most B-vent installations and codes practices.

Example 1: Shows the minimum allowable system height and lateral offset for a 60° or greater inclination. Code species that offsets at 60° or greater are considered horizontal and must follow the 75% rule for lateral to total vertical system height. Codes also allow only one offset in the total system when

at 60° or greater. The total vertical height in this example represents the minimum height of 8 feet and therefore the allowable lateral is 6 feet when the 75% rule applies. If the lateral length must exceed 75% then the system must be sized in accordance with the Category I venting tables.

Example 2: Shows a multiple offset each at 45° of inclination. Multiple offsets are permitted if they do not exceed 45° of inclination. The total lengths of the two offsets are not required to meet the 75% allowable rule.

Example 3: Shows a single offset at 45° of inclination and therefore the lateral length at 10 feet of offset does not have to meet the 75% rule.

In each case the offsets must be supported and restops must be positioned wherever the vent must pass through a sub-oor, ceiling joist or an attic overhang. The vent pipe must terminate vertically into a listed type vent cap and extend a sufcient height through an approved roof ashing, roof jack or a roof thimble (38FST recommended). At all points the listed clearances must be maintained.

Vent terminations must be located in accordance with height and proximity rules of NFPA No. 54. These rules apply to vents at 12" diameter or less and require a minimum height in accordance with the roof pitch and a minimum of 8 ft. distance from a vertical wall or obstruction (see Figure 11, page 11).

IMPORTANT NOTICE

NFPA 54 denes minimum space requirements for the installation of this appliance.

This fireplace must be installed in an

unconned space with a minimum of 50

cubic feet per 1,000 BTUs of gas output. Therefore 36” models require 2,650 cubic feet, 42” models require 3,100 cubic feet and 50” models require 3,300 cubic feet. If the space you wish to install the replace does not meet these requirements NFPA 54 details several actions that may be taken.

Figure 10 - Typical B-Vent Conguration

If venting horizontally through a side wall becomes necessary, a listed thimble approved for use with B-type vent must be used. Check with your local codes before venting through a side wall.

Some codes areas allow the use of existing B-type vent systems if the system is at or above the recommended diameter of the ue, in this case 6".

The ue connection must be made using listed B-type connectors and the existing system must be code inspected for damage and proper installation.

It is not recommended that this appliance be common vented with an existing gas burning appliance. However, if it becomes necessary to common vent this appliance, the venting system must be sized and congured in accordance with the common venting guides Appendix G of the current National Fuel Gas

Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. Note: Before connecting this appliance to an

existing vent system or a common venting system consult with your local architect, planner or building ofcial.

WARNING: This appliance must be properly connected to a system and must not be

connected to a chimney ue

CHECKING FOR PROPER VENTING

After completing and checking electrical, gas and vent connections, follow the lighting instructions and allow the main burner to run for approximately 5 minutes. Hold a lighted match or cigarette near the top edge of replace opening and play it along entire length of opening (see Figure 12). Proper venting should tend to draw the ame or smoke into the appliance. Improper venting or escaping of spillage of burned gas, is indicated when the match ickers or goes out. Smoke from a cigarette will also tend to disperse away from the appliance.

If the appliance is found to be improperly venting, shut it off and notify your installer or a qualied service agency to inspect the venting system.

INSTALLATION

WALL SWITCH INSTALLATION

The installation of a wall switch allows you to activate the gas control valve and turn the replace on and off. The wall switch is to be connected to the incoming 120 volt regular household wiring that supplies electricity to the replace. Refer to wiring diagram in this

manual on page 22.

OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL INSTALLATION (Model WRC)

Note: If using optional wireless hand-held remote control, wall switch must be in the ON position to be operational. The remote control then becomes the switching mechanism for

replace operation.

1. Remove front refractory access panel by lifting up and angling out of rebox opening (see Figure 13).

2. The WRC model receiver does not require a battery. Receiver can be installed by plugging the short extension cord into replace receptacle. Plug receiver unit into extension cord. Plug ignition module plug into receiver unit (see Figure 14).

www.SuperiorFireplaces.US.com

NOTICE: This appliance is equipped with a vent safety shutoff switch which will shut down the appliance in the case of a venting problem. Do not bypass the vent safety switch. If the appliance should shut down, contact a

qualied installer, service agency

or your gas supplier to have the vent inspected before operating.
