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 (1,370 m) above sea level.

For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370 m) 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 (1,370 m).

Gas Inlet and Manifold Pressures

Natural LP (Propane) Inlet Minimum 5.5” w.c. 11.0” w.c. Inlet Maximum 14.0” w.c. 14.0” w.c. Manifold Pressure 3.5” w.c. 10.0” w.c.

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 consult your local authority and the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the USA or the CSA-B149.1 installation codes.

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.

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.

General Information on Assembling Vent Pipes

The venting system must be installed in accordance with the current CSA-B149 .1 installation code.

USA Installations:

The venting system must conform with local codes and/ or the current National Fuel Gas code ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54.

Only venting components manufactured by CFM Corporation can be used in Direct Vent systems.

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 collars on the ﬁreplace and termination, and the sliding joint 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 horizon tal vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph (Fig. 8), 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’ (3.4m) 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’ (2.14m), 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” (508 mm) 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.

• If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run

(level height maintained) the maximum horizontal vent length is reduced by 36” (914 mm). (Fig. 10) This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise. (Fig. 11)

horizontal vent length is 20’ (6 m). However, if a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent, maximum horizontal vent length is reduced to 17’ (5.2 m). In Figure 9, the total of Dim. A and Dim. B must not exceed 17’ (5.2 m).

• The maximum number of 45° elbows permitted per

installation is six (6). 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. 12)

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 270°

Below Grade Installations

When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal clearances of 12” (305 mm) above grade level a snorkel vent kit is recommended. It allows installation depth of down to 7” (178 mm) 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).

1. Establish vent hole through the wall. (Fig. 13)

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. 20)

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. 20)

Fig. 19 Horizontal length to wall.

Support horizontal pipes every 3’ (914 mm) with metal pipe straps.

FP1517

Fig. 26 Window frame removal.

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.

Maintenance

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 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.

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 18, Figure

30)

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.

Cleaning the Standing

Pilot Control System

The burner and control system consist of:

• burner tube • 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.
