IMPORTANT:
PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
Remove any plastic from from parts before turning the fireplace ON. It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine. It is not unusual for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the manufac­turing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated-open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch in the “OFF” position during this time.

High Elevations
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are certified without deration for elevations up to 4,500 feet (1,370m) above sea level.
For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m) in USA, installations must be in accordance with the cur­rent ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes hav­ing jurisdiction.
In Canada, please consult provincial and/or local authorities having jurisdiction for installations at elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m).
Gas Line Installation
When purging gas line, the front window frame removed.
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the rear of the fireplace as well as the bottom. Knockouts are provided on the bottom behind the valve to allow for the gas pipe installation and testing of any gas connection. It is most convenient to bring the gas line in from the rear right side of the valve as this allows fan installation or removal without disconnecting the gas line.
The gas line connection can be made with properly tinned 3/8” copper tubing, 3/8” rigid pipe or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have ad­ditional local codes, it is always best to con- sult your local authority and the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the USA or the CSA-B149.1 installa­tion codes.
1/2” Gas Supply
1/2” NPT X 1/2” Flare Shut-off Valve
3/8” Flex line (from valve)
The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.
Remote ON/OFF Switch
Installation:
1. Thread the wiring through holes on the end panels of appliance. Take care not to cut wire or insulation on metal edges. Route the wire to a conveniently located receptacle box.
2. Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install the switch into the receptacle box.
3. Connect the other ends of the wire to the gas control valve. (Fig. 6)

Alternate Switch Location
The remote switch can be installed on the front/side of the access door. Simply mount the switch to the bracket provided and screw the bracket to either side of the frame, lining up the screws with the pre-punched holes. (Fig. 7)
FP297A
Fig. 5 Typical gas supply installation.
Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro­vide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing . See gas specifications for pres­sure details and ratings.

It is strongly suggested that the wiring of the EB-1 Electrical Junction Box be carried out by a licensed electrician.
Ensure that the power to the supply line has been disconnected before commenc­ing this procedure.
The EB-1 Electrical junction box has been fitted stand ard on this model to allow for the easy connection of an optional fan kit.
To connect the EB-1 box to the house electrical supply follow the steps below.
1. Unscrew retaining screw from EB-1 base plate (Fig.
8) and remove the EB-1 assembly from the appli­ance.
2. Remove the front cover of the EB box.
3. Remove the plug socket assembly from the EB-1 box.
4. Feed the supply line in through the EB-1 opening in the side of the appliance and then through the back of the EB-1 assembly. (Fig. 8)
5. Connect the black wire of the power supply line to the brass screw (polarized) of the socket assembly.
6. Connect the white wire of the power line to the chrome screw of the socket assembly.
7. Connect the ground wire of the supply line to the green screw of the socket assembly.
8. Refit the socket assembly back into the electrical box and replace the cover plate. Secure the cable with the clamp on the outside of the EB-1 base plate and refit the EB-1 assembly to the unit with the screw removed in step 1.

Twist Lock Pipes
When using CFM Corporation twist-lock pipe it is not necessary to use sealant on the joints. The only areas of the venting system that need to be sealed with high temperature silicone sealant are the sliding joints of any telescopic vent section used in the system.
To join the twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads of the male end with the grooves of the female end, then while bringing the ends together, twist the pipe until the flange on the female end contacts the external flange on the male end. It is recommended that you secure the joints with three (3) sheet metal screws, however this is not mandatory with twist lock pipe.
To make it easier to assemble the joints we suggest putting a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end of the twist lock pipe prior to assembly.

How to Use the Vent Graph
The vent chart should be read in conjunction with the following vent installation instructions to determine the relationship of the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the vent system.
1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph. (Fig. 13) locate the point intersecting with the slanted graph line.
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the bottom of the graph.
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the fireplace in accordance with same.
Example A:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the fireplace is 11’ (3.4 m) the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall must not exceed 14’ (4.3 m).
Example B:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 7’ (2.14 m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall must not exceed 8¹⁄₂’ (2.6 m).

Vertical Sidewall Applications
Since it is very important that the vent­ing system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust, certain limitations as to vent configurations apply and must be strictly adhered to.
The vent graph showing the relationship between verti­cal and horizontal side wall venting will help to deter­mine the various dimensions allowable.
Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is one 1” (25mm) on top, bottom and sides unless otherwise noted.
When the vent termination exits through foundations less than 20” (508mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe must flush up with the siding.
It is always best to locate the fireplace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length of vent pipe from the flue collar of the fire­place to the face of the outer wall.

Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this portion of the vent assembly.
The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall
installations is three (3).
If a 90° elbow is fitted directly onto the fireplace
flange the maximum horizontal vent run before the termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914mm).
If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run
(level height maintained) the maximum horizontal vent length is reduced by 36” (914mm). This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise.
Example: According to the chart the maximum
horizontal vent length in a system with a 7.5’ (2.3 m) vertical rise is 20’ (6m) and if a 90° is required in the horizontal vent it must be reduced to 17’ (5.2 m).
In Figure 16, Dimension A plus B must not be
greater than 17’ (5.2 m).

The maximum number of 45° elbows permitted per
side wall installation is two (2). These elbows can be installed in either the vertical or horizontal run.
For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run,
the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18” (457 mm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows are installed on the vertical part of the vent system.
The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system
is 270°. (Fig. 17)

Always install horizontal venting on a level plane.
STEP 6
Use appropriate length of pipe sections - telescopic or fixed - and install the horizontal vent sections. The sec­tions which go through the wall are packaged with the starter kit, and can be cut to suit if necessary. (Fig. 22)
Sealing vent pipe and firestop gaps with high temperature sealant will restrict cold air being drawn in around fireplace.

STEP 7
Guide the vent terminations 4” and 7” collars into their respective vent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes overlap the collars by 2” (51 mm). Secure the termina­tion to the wall with screws provided and caulk around the wall plate to weatherproof. (Fig. 23) As an alterna­tive to screwing the termination directly to the wall you may also use expanding plugs or an approved exterior construction adhesive. You may also attach the termi­nation with screws through the inner body into the 4” (102 mm) vent pipe however for this method you must extend the 4” (102 mm) pipe approximately 6” (152 mm) beyond the outer face of the wall.

Flex Vent Pipe
NOTE: The 40” (1016 mm) flex vent is used for 90° off
the top of the unit then out the back wall. Follow Step 1 and 2 on Page 14.
Step 3
Install the four (4) spacer springs on the 4” flex vent pipe. When installing the spacer springs around the 4” pipe, stretch the spring to approximately 15” (381 mm), wrap the spring around the pipe and interlock the ends of the spacer spring approximately 2” (51 mm). Meas­ure 6³⁄₄” (172 mm) from the end of the pipe. Place the next spring 5” (127 mm) from the previously installed spring. Place the next spring 6” (152 mm) from the last spring. Finally place the last spring 12” (305 mm) from the last spring installed. (Fig. 24)

Step 6
Bend the flex pipe horizontal so the bottom of the horizontal pipe measure 6¹⁄₂” (165mm) from the top of the unit immediately after the 90° formation. (Fig. 25) Be sure to follow the 1” (25mm) rise in a 24” (610mm) horizontal run rule.
Step 7
Install the 4” flex then 7” flex to the termination.
1. Establish vent hole through the wall. (Fig. 18)
2. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16” (406 mm) below base of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install window well (not supplied). Refill hole with 12” (305 mm) of coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approxi­mately 4” (102 mm) below snorkel. (Fig. 26)
3. Install vent system.
4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent pipe coming through the wall.
5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied) around the 4” and 7 “ snorkel collars.
6. Slide the snorkel into the vent pipes and secure to the wall.
7. Level the soil to maintain a 4” (102 mm) clearance below snorkel. (Fig. 26)
Do not back fill around snorkel. A clearance of at least 4” (102 mm) must be maintained between snorkel and the soil.

Below Grade Installations
When it is not possible to meet the required vent ter­minal clearances of 12” (305mm) above grade level a snorkel vent kit is recommended. It allows installation depth of down to 7” (178mm) below grade level. The 7” is measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.
If venting system is installed below ground, we recommend a window well with adequate and proper drainage.
Ensure sidewall venting clearances are observed.
If installing a snorkel a minimum 24” (610 mm) vertical rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the 24” (610 mm) vertical pipe is 36” (914 mm). This measurement is taken from the collar of the fireplace (or transition elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. Refer to the Sidewall Vent Graph for extended horizontal run if the vertical rise exceeds 24” (610 mm).

Glass Cleaning
It is necessary to periodically clean the glass. During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass. This condensation causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia based household cleaner and warm water (We recommend gas fireplace glass cleaner) within the first few weeks of operation.
After the initial cleaning process the glass should be cleaned two or three times during each operating season depending on the environment in the house.
Clean the glass after the first two weeks of operation.
Do not clean glass when hot.
Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Do not strike or slam glass.

CONVERTING THE APPLIANCE FROM LP TO
NATURAL GAS OR NATURAL GAS TO LP
The conversion of this appliance from one gas to another must be carried out by an authorized service provider.
The procedure for converting from one gas to another is the same regardless of the
initial gas used. The only variation is in the orifice-sizes and component part numbers. Your authorized service provider will ensure the correct parts are used.
1. Disconnect power to unit and shut off gas supply.
2. Remove window frame assembly.
3. Carefully remove the logs & lava rock material.
4. Remove the screws that are holding the burner housing assembly in place.
5. Remove the burner housing assembly. Depending on the model of the appliance you may have to loos­en the pilot bracket retaining screw/nut to allow the pilot and bracket assembly to tilt and give enough clearance to remove the burner housing assembly.
6. For Model 36LDVT ONLY: Remove the rear log support and relocate the two (2) screws that locate the rear log as shown in Figure 45.
9. PSE Pilot Using a suitable wrench on the hexagonal body, un-
screw the pilot hood assembly from the pilot, do not twist the hood itself. Remove the orifice and replace it with the new orifice supplied in the kit. Refit the pilot hood assembly. Do not over-tighten the pilot hood. The hood must return to its original alignment. Take care not to damage the thermocouple, thermo­pile or igniter.
10.SIT 820 NOVA Gas Control Valve (Fig. 46) a. Using a Torx T20 or slotted screwdriver, remove
and save the three pressure regulator mount­ing screws (A), pressure regulator tower (B) and diaphram (C).

­tioned and install the new Hi/Lo pressure regula­tor to the valve using the new screws (E) supplied with the kit. Tighten screws securely. (Reference torque - 25 in.LB)
c. Install the enclosed identification label (F) to the
valve body where it can be easily seen.
Honeywell Gas Control Valve (Fig. 47) The Honeywell valve fitted to this unit is suitable for
use with LP or Natural Gas. It is converted to the required gas application by the installation of a color coded “conversion screw”. a) Using a suitable small screwdriver lift out the
central regulator cap from the “Hi - Lo” knob on the valve.
b) Unscrew the exposed conversion screw. c) Insert the new color coded conversion screw.
Do not over-tighten the screw, it must be finger tight.
d) Refit the regulator cap. e) Mount the conversion label supplied with con-
version screw to the valve in a visible position.
11. Reassemble the fireplace in the reverse order, ex­cept for the window frame assembly. Leave this off until after the unit has been checked for leaks and the gas supply has been bled.

Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and lava rock/ember material should be removed and the burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove and refit the logs as per the instructions in this manual.
Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in use.
FK24/FK12 Fan Assembly
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once per month in the operating season open the lower louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.
Brass Trim
Clean the brass trim pieces using a soft cloth lightly dampened with lemon oil. Do not use water or household cleaners on any brass components.
Cleaning the Standing
Pilot Control System
The burner and control system consist of:
burner gas orifice
pilot assembly thermopile
millivolt gas valve
Most of these components may require only an occasional checkup and cleaning and some may require adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should
be performed by a qualified technician.
1. Turn off pilot light at gas valve.
2. Allow fireplace to cool if it has been operating.
3. Remove window frame assembly. (Refer to Window Frame Assembly Removal section.)
4. Remove logs.
5. Vacuum burner compartment especially around orifice primary air openings.
6. Visually inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint accumulation.
7. Reinstall logs.
8. Ignite pilot - Refer to Lighting Instructions.
9. Reinstall window frame assembly.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the pilot and burner’s flame characteristics are steady, not lifting or floating.
Typically, the top 3/8” to 1/2” of the thermopile should be engulfed in the pilot flame. (Refer to Page 24, Figure
43)
To adjust pilot burner: (by qualified service technician)
1. Remove pilot adjustment cap
2. Adjust pilot screw to provide properly sized flame.
3. Replace pilot adjustment cap.
The primary air shutter is set at factory and should only be adjusted, if necessary, by a qualified service technician.

Fan Kits
FK24 Fan Assembly
This auxiliary fan system increases the efficiency of the circulation of the heating air.
The FK24 fan kit allows variable speed control of the circulation fan and also incorporates a heat sensor in the circuit.
Specifications
115 Volt / 60Hz / 56 Watts
Maintenance
The fan itself does not require regular maintenance, however periodic cleaning of the fan and the surrounding area is required.
Check the area under the control door (lower louvre assembly) and in front of the fan and wipe or vacuum this area at least once a month during the operating season.
Installation
The fan assembly and other components are supplied fully wired eliminating the need for a licensed electrician to carry out the installation.
If hard wiring the fan using Method B (following), we strongly recommend the use of a licensed electrician.
1. Open the lower louvre assembly. Maneuver the fan & bracket assembly around the gas valve and lines to locate the unit onto the screw studs on the back of the fireplace.
2. Install the thermal sensor under the bottom of the of the firebox, locating it over the two 10 mm studs and secure it with nuts.
3. Locate the fan speed control unit. This can be fitted behind the lower louvre assembly as in Figure 48 or located remotely in a conveniently located wall mounted electrical box. Remote location of the speed control will require suitable extension of the component wiring.
4. The power supply may be connected in two ways:
Method A Route the 6’ lead fitted to the unit to a conveniently
located wall socket.
Method B (Using EB-1 Receptacle Box) The EB-1 receptacle box (Pt. # ZA1200) may be
hard wired into the house supply. The fan lead is then plugged into the EB-1 box. For instruction on wiring the EB-1 Electrical Junction Box see the earlier chapter in the Installation section of this manual.

This auxiliary fan system increases the efficiency of the circulation of the heating air.
The FK12 Fan Assembly is a fixed speed fan system and does not allow for variable speed control. It does not use the speed control unit or the heat sensor used in the FK24 Kit.
Specifications
115 Volts / 60 Hz / 56 Watts.
Maintenance
The fan itself does not require regular maintenance, however periodic cleaning of the fan and the surrounding area is required.
Check the area under the control door (lower louvre assembly) and in front of the fan and wipe or vacuum this area at least once a month during the operating season.
Installation
The fan assembly is supplied fully wired eliminating the need for a licensed electrician to carry out the installation.
1. Open the lower Louvre assembly. Maneuver the fan & bracket assembly around the gas valve and lines to locate the unit against the back wall of the appliance, resting on the base.
2. With the protective cover removed from the self­adhesive ‘Velcro’ strips apply mild pressure to the fan & bracket unit to secure the strips to the metal panels. No further securing is required.
3. Power to the fan can be supplied by plugging the supplied lead into a conveniently located wall socket or by using a hard-wired EB-1 connector box.
