COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

For cold climate installations, seal all cracks

around your appliance with noncombustible

material and wherever cold air could enter

the room. It is especially important to insulate

outside chase cavity between studs and under

ﬂoor on which appliance rests, if ﬂoor is above

ground level. Gas line holes and other open-

ings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced

ﬁberglass insulation.

If the ﬁreplace is being installed on a cement

slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or

other raised platform can be placed underneath

to prevent cold transfer to the ﬁreplace and into

the room. It also helps to sheetrock inside

surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness

and caulk ﬁrestops.

MANUFACTURED HOUSING

B-Vent Fireplaces are not approved for use in

OEM or aftermarket manufactured housing built

to HUD standards.

LOCATION

In selecting the location, the aesthetic and

functional use of the appliance are primary

concerns. However, vent system routing to

the exterior and access to the fuel supply are

also important.

Due to high temperatures, the appliance

should be located out of trafﬁc and away from

furniture and draperies (Figure 2).

En raison des températures élevées,

l’appareil devrait être installé dans un endroit

où il y a peu de circulation et loin du mobilier

et des tentures (Figure 2).

The location should also be free of electrical,

plumbing or other heating/air conditioning

ducting.

Be aware that this is a heat producing ap-

pliance. Objects placed above the unit are

exposed to elevated temperatures.

Do not insulate the space between the appli-

ance and the area above it.

The appliance must be mounted on a fully sup-

ported base extending the full width and depth of

the unit. The appliance may be located on or near

conventional construction materials. However,

if installed on combustible materials, such as

carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material

other than wood ﬂooring, the appliance shall be

installed on a metal or wood panel extending the

full width and depth of the appliance.

Vertical Vent Termination Clearances

VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCES

These instructions should be used as a

guideline and do not supersede local codes

in any way. Install venting according to local

codes, these instructions, the current National

Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or

the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1

in Canada.

Vertical Vent Termination Clearances

Gas Vent Rule - Gas vent caps are not permitted

within 8 ft. (2.4 m) of a vertical wall or similar

obstruction. Gas vent caps that are located 8

ft. or more from a portion of a building which

extends at an angle greater than 45° upward

from the horizontal may terminate in accordance

with Figure 4 , provided that in no case shall

any discharge opening on the cap be less than

2 ft. (.6 m) horizontally from the roof surface

(National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA

54) (CAN/CGA B149.1).

Multiple Terminations

These appliances may vent adjacent to and at

the same level with any other gas appliances

(including direct-vent appliances) provided that

there is at least 2 ft. (0.6m) between the proximal

edges of the vent caps. These appliances may

be vented adjacent to a chimney vent servicing

a solid fuel ﬁreplace provided the B-vent cap

is at least 2 ft. (0.6m) away from the nearest

point of the chimney opening.

Hearth Extension - A hearth extension is not required with this appliance.

If a hearth extension is used, do not block the lower control compartment

door. Any hearth extension used is for appearance only and does not

have to conform to standard hearth extension installation requirements.

Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels

NOTE: Combustible wall ﬁnish materials and/or surround materials must

not be allowed to encroach the area deﬁned by the appliance front face

(black sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials to be positioned

in front of or overlapping the appliance face (see Figure 6 on Page 9

and Figure 27 on Page 22).

Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim,

may be installed on the appliance face with these exceptions: they must not

cover any portion of the removable glass panel or control compartment.

Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according

to the depth of the mantel. See Figure 5. Mantels constructed of non-

combustible materials may be installed at any height above the appliance

opening; however, do not allow anything to hang below the ﬁreplace hood.

Minimum clearance requirements include any projections such as shelves,

window sills, mantels, etc. above the appliance.

NOTE: To avoid heat-related ﬁnish damage, we recommend the use of high

temperature paint (rated 175° F or higher) on the underside of the mantel.

Step 1. FRAMING

Frame this appliance as illustrated in Figure 9.

All framing details must allow for a minimum

clearance to combustible framing members as

shown inTable 5 on Page 9. If the appliance is to

be elevated above ﬂoor level, a solid continuous

platform must be constructed. Headers may be

in direct contact with the appliance top spacers

but must not be supported by them or notched

to ﬁt around them. All construction above the

appliance must be self supporting, DO NOT use

the appliance for structural support.

Side Nailing Flanges

The ﬁreplace should be secured to the framing

at the side(s) and/or rear of the unit using the

factory-provided nailing ﬂanges. Install the 8

nailing ﬂanges as shown in Figure 8 using the

existing screws.

Position the ﬁreplace within the framing. When

required, the ﬂanges may be bent 90 degrees by

hand or with the assistance of a hammer. Use

wood screws to secure the nailing ﬂanges to

the framing. See Table 5 on Page 9 for clear-

ances of framing members to cabinet parts in

the nailing ﬂange area. The nailing ﬂange itself

is exempt from these clearances.

Floor Nailing Tabs

Secure the ﬁreplace to the ﬂoor as shown in

Figure 8.

*This dimension can be reduced to 41" (1041 mm). This results in 0" (0mm) clear-

ance between framing and unit framing spacers (The 41-1/2" dimension permits

easier ﬁreplace installation, if unit is installed after framing is erected).

Proper Sizing of Gas Line

Properly size and route the gas supply line

from the supply regulator to the area where the

appliance is to be installed per requirements

outlined in the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA

54 - latest edition (USA) or CAN/CGA-B149.1

- latest edition (Canada).

Never use galvanized or plastic pipe. Refer to

Table 6 for proper sizing of the gas supply line,

if black iron pipe is being used. Gas lines must

be routed, constructed and made of materials

that are in strict accordance with local codes

and regulations. We recommend that a qualiﬁed

individual such as a plumber or gas ﬁtter be

hired to correctly size and route the gas supply

line to the appliance.

Installing a gas supply line from the fuel supply to

the appliance involves numerous considerations

of materials, protection, sizing, locations, con-

trols, pressure, sediment, and more. Certainly no

one unfamiliar and unqualiﬁed should attempt

sizing or installing gas piping.

Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE

Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line to the left side

of the appliance as shown in Figure 11. Gas

lines must be routed, constructed and made

of materials that are in strict accordance with

local codes and regulations. All appliances

are factory-equipped with a ﬂexible gas line

connector and 1/2" shutoff valve. (See Step

5 on Page 14).

NOTES:

• All appliances are factory-equipped with a

ﬂexible gas line connector and 1/2" shutoff

valve.

• See Massachusetts Requirements on Page 6

for additional requirements for installations

in the state of Massachusetts in the USA.

• The gas supply line should Not be connected

to the appliance until Step 5 (Page 15).

• A pipe joint compound rated for gas should be

used on the threaded joints. Ensure propane

resistant compounds are used in propane

applications. Be very careful that the pipe

compound does not get inside the pipe.

• It is recommended to install a sediment

trap in the supply line as close as possible

to the appliance. Appliances using Propane

should have a sediment trap at the base of

the tank.

• Check with local building ofﬁcial for local

code requirements (i.e. are below grade

penetrations of the gas line allowed?, etc).

IMPORTANT: If propane is used, be aware that

if tank size is too small (i.e. under 100-lbs, if

this is the only gas appliance in the dwelling.

Ref. NPFA 58), there may be loss of pressure,

resulting in insufﬁcient fuel delivery (which

can result in sooting, severe delayed ignition

or other malfunctions). Any damage resulting

from an improper installation, such as this, is

not covered under the limited warranty.

Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM

General Information

These instructions should be used as a

guideline and do not supersede local codes

in any way. Install venting according to local

codes, these instructions, the current National

Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or

the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1

in Canada.

Ensure clearances are in accordance with

local installation codes and the requirements

of the gas supplier.

Dégagement conforme aux codes d'installation

locaux et aux exigences du foumisseunde gaz.

These ﬁreplaces must be vented directly

to the outside.

The vent system may not service multiple

appliances, and must never be connected to a

ﬂue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The

vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed

wall (such as a chase). There is no requirement

for inspection openings in the enclosing wall at

any of the joints in the vent pipe.

In the United States, vent installation must

conform with local building codes. In the ab-

sence of local codes, vents must be installed

in accordance with the current edition of the

National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1).

In Canada, vent installation must conform with

local building codes. In the absence of local

codes, vents must be installed in accordance

with the current edition of the National Stan-

dard of Canada CAN/CGA-B149.1 or B149.2

Installation Code.

This gas ﬁreplace must be vertically vented

using listed 6" type-B, double-walled vent

pipe and a listed vent termination.

collar (see Figure 13). The maximum overall

height of the vent system and appliance should

not exceed 40 feet.

Install the B-vent system in accordance with

the vent manufacturer's instructions.

CAUTION: THIS APPLIANCE CANNOT BE

VENTED HORIZONTALLY.

NOTE: Refer to the vent manufacturers instal-

lation instructions for variations of venting

techniques. If common venting of several units

is contemplated, it should be discussed with an

architect and the local Building Department.

Do not place insulation materials within 1" of

the gas vent system.

Figure 15 - GAS CONNECTION

Make gas line connections. All codes require a

shut-off valve mounted in the supply line. Figure

15 illustrates two methods for connecting the

gas supply. The ﬂex-line method is acceptable

in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements

vary depending on locality. Installation must

be in compliance with local codes.

A sediment trap is recommended in the gas

piping within the home to prevent moisture

and debris in the line from damaging the valve.

These appliances are equipped with a gas ﬂex

line for use (where permitted) in connecting the

unit to the gas line. A gas ﬂex line is provided to

aid in attaching the appliance to the gas supply.

The gas ﬂex line can only be used where local

codes permit.

The ﬂex line is rated for both natural and propane

gas. A manual shut off valve is also provided with

the ﬂex line. The gas control valve is located in

the lower control compartment.

To access the valve open the lower control

compartment door (see Figure 17 ) by pushing

in the right top corner of the door. (The door

is hinged at the bottom). Remove the bottom

compartment door by sliding the hinge pin,

located at the door’s left side, to the right until

it disengages from the left corner post hole.

Pull the door diagonally to the left, away from

the ﬁreplace.

The lower control compartment door on the

side opposite the valve lifts on and off.

The millivolt control valve has a 3/8"

(10 mm) NPT thread inlet port.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate

tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane

resistant compounds are used in propane

applications).

All codes require a shut-off valve mounted in

the supply line. The orientation of the shut-off

valve should face the front. Figure 15 illustrates

two methods for connecting the gas supply.

A sediment Trap is recommended to prevent

moisture and debris in the gas line for damag-

ing the valve.

NOTE: Using a soapy water solution is an

effective leak test solution but it is not recom-

mended, because the soap residue that is left

on the pipes/ﬁttings can result in corrosion

over time.

WARNING

Never use an open ﬂame to

check for leaks.

TEST ALL CONNECTIONS FOR GAS LEAKS

(FACTORY AND FIELD):

STEP 5. CONNECTING GAS LINE

Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks, us-

ing a gas leak test solution (also referred to as

bubble leak solution).

A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting

instructions label in the control compart-

ment or in the Installation and Operation

Instructions manual).

B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas

leak test solution to check for leaks. If bubbles

are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the

gas control knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF”

position. Either tighten or refasten the leaking

connection, then retest as described above.

C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,

be sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.

Step 6. OUTSIDE AIR KITS

Optional outside make-up air kits, Model FOAK-4

or FAOK-4LD, may be used with these appli-

ances. Refer to the installation instructions

packaged with the air kits for speciﬁc installation

information. If used, the outside air kit must

be installed before the ﬁreplace is framed and

enclosed in the ﬁnished wall.

Outside air drawn into the ﬁreplace supplies air

to the ﬁre for combustion. Only one outside air

duct is necessary, if installed. See the Figure 11

for the location of the units outside air inlet.

If additional length of duct is necessary, pur-

chase locally available U.L. Class 0 or Class 1

metallic ducting. The duct may extend up to 50'

(15.24 m) in any direction.

NOTE: When installing the air duct vertically,

DO NOT terminate the duct closer than 3' below

the chimney top.

Outside combustion air ducting may be run

upwards or vertically through framing and ceil-

ing joists, with the hood installed through an

outside wall and 3' (1 m) below the termination.

Ducting may also be run downward through

ﬂoor Joists and under the home to a ventilated

crawlspace not considered part of the living

area of the home.

NOTE: Do not terminate outside air kit in attic

space under any circumstances.

CAUTION: NEVER LOCATE INLET WHERE IT

CAN BE BLOCKED BY SHRUBS, SNOW DRIFTS,

ETC. NEVER LOCATE INLET IN GARAGE OR

ANY AREA WHERE THERE IS ANOTHER FUEL

BURNING APPLIANCE OR PRODUCTS EMIT-

TING COMBUSTIBLE GASES SUCH AS PAINT,

GASOLINE, ETC. IN COLD CLIMATES, IT IS

RECOMMENDED THE COMBUSTION AIR DUCT

BE INSULATED.

After completing the installation of the optional

outside air vent system, the outside air control

lever must be put in service and tested to ensure

proper operation before completing any enclo-

sure around the ﬁrebox. Failure to do so may

result in extensive and costly rework.

Before the operation of the vent system can

be tested, the lever securing screw must be

removed. See Figure 16.

The hand operated outside air control lever

is located on the right side of the ﬁreplace

opening. See Figure 16.

To open the outside air shutter, open the bottom

control access panel, reach into the gap between

the ﬁrebox bottom and the modesty panel, and

pull the outside air control lever all the way out.

The outside air shutter should be fully open when

the ﬁreplace is in use and completely closed

when the ﬁreplace is not being used. Closing

it when not in use will prevent outside cold air

from entering the dwelling.

Operate the actuator through several cycles

including the closed position. Ensuring proper

operation and freedom of movement. Return

the actuator arm to the closed position.

Step 7. VERIFYING APPLIANCE OPERA-

TION

Turn on burner and observe the individual

tongues of ﬂame on the burner. Make sure

all ports are open and producing ﬂame evenly

across the burner. If any ports are blocked, or

partially blocked, clean out the ports.

With gas line installed run initial system

checkout before closing up the front of the

unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions

provided in the Installation and Operation

Instructions manual. For piezo igniter loca-

tion see Figure 17 (millivolt appliances only).

NOTE: Lighting Instructions are also found on

the literature tag tied to the gas piping next

to the gas valve. To access the tag, open the

lower control compartment door (Figure 17) by

pushing in simultaneously the left and right top

corners of the door. (The door is hinged at the

bottom). Remove the bottom compartment door

by sliding the hinge pin, located at the door’s

left side, to the right until it disengages from

the left corner post hole. Remove the modesty

panel. To remove the modesty panel, slide the

panel forward until it contacts the cabinet bot-

tom panel, then lift straight up and tilt forward.

Remove the modesty panel carefully, so that

none of the wires become loose or disconnected.

When ﬁrst lighting the appliance, it will take a

few minutes for the line to purge itself of air.

Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner

will light and operate as indicated in the instruc-

tion manual.

Subsequent lighting of the appliance will not

require such purging. Inspect the pilot ﬂame (re-

move logs, if necessary, handling carefully).

(see Figure 19). Keep the pieces ﬂuffed up, not matted. Distribute

these pieces over the surface of the burner, as shown in Figure 20.

Do not use more than is necessary. Ensure that the main burner ports

remain uncovered by the ember material.

5. Place Volcanic Stone - Spread volcanic stone evenly over ﬁrebox

ﬂoor.

6. Install Vermiculite - Place some vermiculite on the ﬁrebox ﬂoor around

the grate (the entire bag of vermiculite will NOT be used). DO NOT PLACE

ANY VERMICULITE ON THE BURNER.

NOTE: This appliance is provided with enough Glowing Embers for

several applications, do not use all that is in a new bag at one time. For

best glowing effect, replace the ember material annually. Replacement

Glowing Embers are available (order Catalog Number 88L53).

WARNING

• DO NOT attempt to install the logs until the appli-

ance installation has been completed, the gas

line connected and tested for leaks and the initial

burner operation has been checked out.

•

The size and position of the log set was engineered

to give the appliance a safe, reliable and attrac-

tive ﬂame pattern. Any attempt to use a different

log set in the ﬁreplace will void the warranty and

will result in incomplete combustion, sooting,

and poor ﬂame quality.

•

Logs get very hot and will remain hot up to one

hour after gas supply is turned off. Handle only

when logs are cool. Turn off all electricity to the

appliance before you install grate, volcanic stone,

vermiculite, embers and logs.

•

This appliance is not designed to burn wood. Any

attempt to do so could cause irreparable damage

to the appliance and prove hazardous to your

safety.

•

If logs are not installed according to the log

installation instructions, ﬂame impingement

and improper combustion could occur and result

in soot and/or excessive production of carbon

monoxide (CO), a colorless, odorless, toxic gas.
