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 CFM Corporation gas fireplace to
give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due
to 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.

Hearth
A hearth is not mandatory, but is recommended for
aesthetic purposes. We recommend a noncombustible
hearth which projects out 12” (305 mm) or more from
the front of the fireplace.
Cold climate installation recommendation:
When installing this unit against a non-insulated exterior wall or chase, it is mandatory that the outer walls be insulated to
conform to applicable insulation codes.
CFM146
The height that a combustible mantel is fitted above the
fireplace is dependent on the depth of the mantel. This
also applies to the distance between the mantel leg (if
fitted) and the fireplace.
For the correct mounting height and widths, refer to
Figures 4a, 4b and the Mantel Chart below.
The distances and reference points are not affected by
the fitting of a bay window front trim kit.
Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at
any height and width around the appliance. When using
paint or lacquer, it must be heat resistant to prevent
discoloration.

(from valve)
FP297a
Fig. 6 Typical gas supply installation.
Always check for gas leaks with a mild
soap and water solution applied with a
brush no larger than 1” (25 mm). Never
apply soap and water solution with a spray
bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak
testing.
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.
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. (Fig. 6) See the gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.
Remote ON/OFF Switch Installation
Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for this gas
appliance into a 120v power supply.
1. Thread wire through the electrical knockout located
on either side of the unit. Take care not to cut the
wire or insulation on metal edges. Ensure the wire is
secured and protected from possible damage. Run
one end of the gas control valve and the other end to
the conveniently located wall switch.

Twist Lock Pipes
When using 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 twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads
of the male end with the grooves of the female end,
twisting the pipe until the flange on the female end
contacts 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. (Fig. 18)
To make it easier to assembly 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
TWL100
Horizontal dimension from the outside face of the
wall to the center of the fireplace vent flange
The Vent Graph should be read in conjunction with the
following vent installation instructions to determine the
relationship between the vertical and horizontal dimensions fo 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. 19),
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 unit is 11’
(3.4m) 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’
(2.1 m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall
must not exceed 8¹⁄₂’ (2.6 m).

Rear Wall Vent Application
When installed as a rear vent unit this appliance may be
vented directly to a termination located on the rear wall
behind the appliance.
• Only CFM Corporation venting components are
approved to be used in these applications (See
‘Venting Components’ listed for different installation
requirements).
• The maximum horizontal distance between the rear
of the appliance (or end of the transition elbow in a
corner application) and the outside face of the rear
wall is 20” (508 mm). (Fig. 20, 21)
• Only one 45° elbow is allowed in these installations.
• Minimum clearances between vent pipe and combustible materials are as follows:

shown. (Fig. 22)
Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening should be 7¹⁄₂”
(191mm) diameter.
Zero clearance sleeve is only required for
combustible walls.
Step 2
Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve
parts to proper length (Maximum 12” / 305 mm). Assemble sleeve to its maximum opening (10³⁄₈” x 9³₈”)
and attach to firestop assembly. (Fig. 23)
Step 3
Measure the horizontal length requirement for the venting including a 2” (51 mm) overlap, i.e. from the elbow
to the outside wall face plus 2” (51 mm). (Fig. 21)

Step 4
Install the 4” (102 mm) vent to the appliance collar and
secure with 3 sheet metal screws. Install the 7” (178
mm) vent pipe to the appliance collar and secure with 3
sheet metal screws. It is not necessary to seal this connection. If a 45° elbow is being used attach the elbow
to the appliance in the same manner then attach the
venting to the elbow.
It is critical that there is no downward
slope away from the appliance when connecting the vent or elbow.
Step 5
Guide the venting through the vent hole as you place
the appliance in its installed position. Guide the 4”
(102 mm) and 7” (178 mm) collar of the vent termination into the outer ends of the venting. Do not force
the termination. If the vent pipes do not align with the
termination, remove and realign the venting at the appliance flue collars. (Fig. 24) Attach the termination to the
wall as outlined in the instruction sheet supplied with
the termination.

Step 4
Assemble the flex vent to the collars on the termination
as you did on the appliance.

FP1472
Fig. 26 There must be a 1/2” rise per foot length.
Vertical Sidewall Application
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 ver
tical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to determine the various dimensions allowable.
Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is one inch (25 mm) on top, bottom and sides unless otherwise noted.
When vent termination exits through foundations less
than 20” (508 mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe
must flush up with the siding.
It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent
pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the top of
the Transition Elbow) to the face of the outer wall.
Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this
portion of the vent assembly.
When installing the appliance as a rear
vent unit, the 90° or 45° Transition Elbow
attached directly to the rear of the unit is
NOT INCLUDED in the following criteria
and calculations, and unless specifically
mentioned should be ignored when calculating venting layouts.
• The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall
installation is three (3). (Fig. 27)
• If a 90° elbow is fitted directly on top of the fireplace
flange the maximum horizontal vent run before the
termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914 mm). (Fig.
28)
