Venting Requirements and Options
The Stardance must be properly connected to a listed
4” (102 mm) Type B venting system or to an approved
Class A masonry or factory-built chimney system. In
Canada, a complete relining of Class A chimney sys-
tems is required.
The Stardance Natural Vent stove will accept decora-
tive 6” (152 mm) stove pipe around the Type B venting
system, for aesthetic purposes.
Complete Type B vent systems are available from a
number of manufacturers, and your dealer can usually
supply one. Pipe sections from different makers are not
interchangeable; do not mix pipe or vent sections from
different makers. Follow the vent system manufactur-
er’s instructions.
The vent system should conform to the specifications of
the National Fuel Gas Code, latest edition.
If connecting to a Class A chimney system, use 4” (102
mm) single wall or 4” Type B vent connector. Single wall
vent connector requires a minimum 6” (152 mm) clear-
ance to combustible surfaces.
Exterior chimneys may be subject to flow reversal or
condensation. To lessen these conditions, enclose Type
B vents in an insulated chase, or reline exterior Class A
chimneys.
An approved pass-through device is always required,
whether the vent system passes through a wall or
a ceiling. Use a pass-through device from the same
maker who supplies the venting system.
Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or
siding.
Vent Layout and Height Requirements
Venting for a Stardance can rise vertically through the
home, or can pass through an exterior wall and rise
along the outside of the home. Some codes require that
a Type B vent system rising on the outside of the home
be enclosed in a chase. Check your local codes for
requirements.
The minimum vent system height for the Stardance
Natural Vent Stove is 8’ (2.43 m), (Fig. 7) measured
from the top of the stove. To determine the minimum
height the vent system must extend through or past the
roof, refer to the 1993 edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code.

Venting System Assembly
Adjust the leg levelers as needed. They should not
extend any further from the leg than necessary.
The venting collar is on the sheet metal draft hood/heat
exchanger assembly, over the firebox. Use a B-vent
adapter, from the same maker as the rest of the B-vent
components, to join the first section of venting to the
draft hood.
The SNV30 stove includes a spill switch. Operating this
stove when not connected to a properly installed and
maintained venting system, or tampering with or discon-
necting the spill switch, can result in carbon monoxide
(CO) poisoning and possible death.
The stove includes a bracket for installing decorative 6”
(152mm) round stove pipe around the B-vent, for ap-
pearance purposes only. The decorative pipe need not
be concentric with the vent pipe.
If the installation includes decorative stove pipe around
the venting system, make a cardboard template of the
decorative pipe by tracing its circumference. Put this
template in the flue recess in the stove top. Position the
template to fit well against the front of the recess. (Fig.
14) Use this template to locate the bracket to hold the
decorative pipe. Depending on spacing, the bracket
may fit inside the decorative pipe without interfering
with the vent system. Fasten the bracket to the draft
hood/heat exchanger assembly with a sheet metal
screw.

Remove retaining nut from shaft of rheostat. (if
preinstalled)
Insert the rheostat through the hole in the back
of the left side of the valve bracket, aligning the
locator pin with the smaller hole in that bracket.
Thread the retaining nut onto the shaft of the
rheostat, tightening with a wrench. Do not over-
tighten.
Attach the control knob to the rheostat shaft.
Use the wire tie to secure the fan and rheostat
wire harnesses together.
9. Plug the power cord into a standard grounded 110
volt household outlet. If the fan control knob is not
turned to the OFF position, the fan will turn on when
the temperature at the snapstat reaches approxi-
mately 109°F.

Insert the B-vent adapter into the flue collar and drill
1/8” (3mm) pilot holes through both the stove’s collar
and the adapter. Attach the adapter to the flue collar
with sheet metal screws. (Fig. 15)
Attach the first section of venting to the B-vent adapter.
Depending on the length of the individual venting
sections and the lengths of the decorative pipe, you
may need to slip the decorative pipe over the venting
sections before attaching upper sections to lower ones.
The sections of decorative pipe should be oriented with
their seams (if any) toward the wall; sections usually
do not need to be fastened at each joint, other than slip
sections. The decorative pipe need not be fastened to
the locating bracket on the stove. If the layout includes
a slip section, this should be the last section of pipe vis-
ible in the room at the ceiling. Refer to Page 7, Figure 6
for details on joining the decorative pipe at the ceiling.

Paint Option for Enamelled Stoves
If you wish to match the decorative or vent pipe to the
color of the stove, paint the pipe before installation. Use
only a high-temperature paint. Paint only in a well-venti-
lated area. Mask the surroundings to prevent overspray.
Apply the paint lightly; two light coats will result in a
better finish than a single heavy coat. Let the paint dry
thoroughly before handling painted parts.
Connect the Gas Supply Line
Check the Rating Plate attached by a steel cable to the
firebox, to confirm that you have the appropriate firebox
for the type of fuel to be used. The Stardance may be
converted from one gas to another using the appropri-
ate Fuel Conversion Kit listed on Page 24.
This appliance should only be connect-
ed by a qualified gas technician. Test to
confirm manifold pressures as specified
below.
The Stardance Heater and its individual shutoff
valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping during any pressure testing of that system
at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The Stardance Heater must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its indi-
vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
There must be a gas shutoff between the stove
and the supply.
In order to connect Natural Gas, use a fitting with
3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” natural
gas supply line with an input of 28,000 BTUs at
a manifold pressure of 3.5” and a minimum inlet
supply pressure of 5.5” w.c.
In order to connect Propane, use a fitting with
3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” pro-
pane gas supply line with an input of 26,000
BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” and a mini-
mum inlet supply pressure of 11.0” w.c.
In the U.S.; Gas connection should be made in ac-
cordance with current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54. Since some municipalities have
additional local codes, be sure to consult you local
authority.
In Canada; consult the local authority and CSA-B149.1
installation code.
Connect the gas supply and test for leaks. Use a 50/50
solution of liquid soap and water to test for leaks at gas
fittings and joints. Apply water/soap solution with brush
only - do not over apply. NEVER test with an open
flame. Light the pilot according to the directions on
Page 14, before going to the next step.

Operation
Your First Fire
Read these instructions carefully and familiarize
yourself with the burner controls shown in Figure 27.
Locate the pilot assembly, Figure 24. Follow the lighting
instructions on Page 14 exactly.
During the first fire, it is not unusual to smell some
odor associated with new logs, paint and metal being
heated. Odors should dissipate within an hour or so,
however, you can open a window to provide fresh air to
alleviate the condition.
Pilot and Burner Inspection
Each time you light your heater check that the pilot
flame and burner flame patterns are as shown in Figure
26. If flame patterns are incorrect, turn the heater off.
Contact your dealer or a qualified gas technician for as-
sistance. Do not operate the heater until the pilot flame
is correct.
Follow regular maintenance procedures as described
on Page 19.

Maintenance
Your Stardance Gas Heater will provide years of service
with minimal upkeep. The following procedures will help
ensure that your stove continues to function properly.
Annual System Inspection
Have the entire heater and venting system inspected
annually by a qualified gas technician. Replace any
worn or broken parts.
Logset and Burner /
Cleaning and Inspection
Cleanliness is critical to the proper function of the
heater. The logset and burner must all be kept free of
dust and unobstructed by debris. Inspect these areas
before each use and clean as necessary.
1. Turn the burner OFF and let the heater cool com
-
pletely before cleaning.
2. Lift the Stove Front up and then swing the bottom
out to disengage it from the heater shell. (Fig. 37)
3. Carefully remove the glass and frame assembly and
place it out of the way on a flat, padded surface such
as a counter protected by a towel.
4. Carefully inspect the Logs for damage. Contact your
local dealer if any damage is evident. DO NOT OP-
ERATE THE HEATER WITH DAMAGED LOGS.
5. Use a soft bristled brush to sweep dust or debris
from the Logs, Pilot and Burner. Use care as the
logs are fragile and susceptible to damage.
6. Replace the glass panel and frame assembly.
7. Replace the Stove Front.
Care of Cast Iron
An occasional dusting with a dry rag will help keep the
painted surfaces looking new. Use high-temperature
stove paints, available through your local dealer, to
touch-up areas as needed. Clean areas to be painted
with a wire brush and be sure to cover the logs, burner
and valve assembly, glass and frame assembly. Apply
the paint sparingly; two light coats of paint will give bet-
ter results than a single heavy coat.
Clean porcelain enamel surfaces with a soft, damp
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. If neces-
sary, use only a cleaning agent formulated especially
for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.
CAUTION
TURN THE PILOT OFF BEFORE PAINTING.
ALLOW THE HEATER TO COOL COMPLETELY
BEFORE PAINTING.
Cleaning the Glass
WARNING: Let the glass cool completely before at-
tempting to clean.
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. Dur-
ing start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms on
the inside of the glass and 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 household
cleaner and warm water (we recommend gas fireplace
glass cleaner). After that the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each heating season depend-
ing on the circumstances present.
Clean glass after first two weeks of opera
-
tion.
Glass Replacement
Replace glass only with CFM Corporation approved
parts. Refer to Page 22 for Replacement Parts. Refer to
Figure 38 and previous instructions for removal of the
damaged glass frame.

Gasket Replacement
The Stardance Gas Heater uses a ‘tadpole’ type gasket
to seal between the glass panel and the frame. In time,
this gasket can become brittle and compressed and
should be replaced. New gasket is available from your
dealer.
Shut off the gas supply and allow the stove to cool.
Wear safety goggles and a dust mask.
1. Remove the Front, Glass Frame and Glass Panel.
(Figs. 37, 38) Remove the old gasket. Use a razor
blade, with rounded corners, to separate the glass
and gasket from the frame, and to clean the glass of
any remaining cement or bits of gasket.
2. Determine the correct length of gasket by laying it
out around the edge of the glass. Allow an extra 1
- 2” (25-51mm). Mark the spot to be cut. Use a utility
knife.
3. Starting on a long edge, remove about 6” of the pro
-
tective paper strip and apply the flat adhesive face
of the gasket around the outside-facing edge of the
panel. Continue around the panel, applying a bout 6”
at a time and being careful to not stretch the mate-
rial. Do not overlap the gasket ends. (Fig. 39)
4. Apply a thin bead of high temperature silicone
rubber sealant along the inside corner of the glass
frame, all around the perimeter. Place the flat
gasketed side of the glass panel back into the steel
frame. Pinch the rounded inside-facing gasket mate-
rial to bulk it up.
5. Replace the glass frame and front panel as previ
-
ously described.
Inspect the Vent System Annually
Have the vent system inspected annually by a quali-
fied technician. Shut off the main gas supply before
inspecting the system. Both the inner exhaust pipe and
the outer combustion supply pipe must be checked to
confirm that they are unblocked and in good condition.
Check the Gas Flame Regularly
To ensure that the stove is operating properly, check
the flames periodically to confirm that they match
Figure 40. The flames will be blue during the first 15-20
minutes of operation, and will gradually turn to yellow
after that.
Do not use your stove if the flame pattern differs from
that shown here. Contact your Vermont Castings dealer
or a qualified technician for help.

Fig. 39 Wrap the gasket material around the outside edge of
the glass.
Stove Disassembly
If there is ever a need to remove the firebox assem-
bly from the stove shell, support the firebox with solid
stands about 6” (152mm) tall under the left and right
outer edges of the firebox base. Do not set the firebox
assembly directly on the floor; this can damage the
control valve and/or the gas lines from the valve to the
firebox.
Before removing the firebox from the shell, disconnect
the on/off switch wires from the valve. If the assembly
includes the optional fan, disconnect the fan rheostat.
If the installation includes a wall thermostat, disconnect
the thermostat leads from valve.
Disconnection and reconnection to the gas line should
only be done by a qualified gas service technician.
Upon reinstallation, the vent system must be sealed to
the firebox as shown in the installation section, Page 9.
Also be sure the logs are placed in the firebox correctly,
as shown in Page 12, Figures 19, 20.
