IN CANADA—CAN/CGA-2.17-M91 (HIGH ALTITUDE):
THE CONVERSION SHALL BE CARRIED OUT BY A MANUFACTURER’S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE,
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MANUFACTURER, PROVINCIAL OR TERRITORIAL
AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CAN/
CGA-B149.1 OR CAN/CGA-B149.2 INSTALLATION CODES.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
These fireplaces are approved for installation in the U.S. state of Massachusetts if the following additional
requirements are met:
• Install this fireplace in accordance with Massachusetts Rules and Regulations 248 C.M.R..
• Installation and repair must be done by a plumber or gas fitter licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• The flexible gas line connector used shall not exceed 36” (914 mm) in length.
• The individual manual shutoff must be a T-handle type valve.
Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, horizontal terminations installed less than seven (7) ft above the finished
grade must comply with the following additional requirements:
• A hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up must be installed on the floor level
where the gas fireplace is installed. The carbon monoxide detector must comply with NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL
2034 listed and be ISA certified.
• A metal or plastic identification plate must be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height
of eight (8) ft above grade and be directly in line with the horizontal termination. The sign must read, in print size no
less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks around your fireplace 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 fireplace rests, if floor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed
with unfaced fiberglass insulation.
NOTE: Do not use loose, or blown-in insulation in the cavity surrounding the fireplace.
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 conduction of cold transferring to the fireplace and into the room. It also helps to
seal inside surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.

home, where not prohibited by local codes.
Cet appareil peut être installé dans une maison préfabriquée (mobile) déjà installée à demeure si les règlements
locaux le permettent.
This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for
use with other gases, unless a certified kit is used.
Cet appareil doit être utilisé uniquement avec le type de gaz indiqué sur la plaque signalétique. Cet appareil ne
peut être converti à d’autres gaz, sauf si une trousse de conversion est utilisée.
CAUTION
Ensure that the cross members are not cut or weakened during installation. The structural
integrity of the manufactured home floor, wall, and ceiling / roof must be maintained.
CAUTION
This appliance must be grounded to the chassis of the manufactured home in accordance
with local codes or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI /
NFPA 70—latest edition or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1—latest edition.
LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and functional use of the fireplace are primary concerns. However, vent
system routing to the exterior and access to the fuel supply are also important.
Due to high temperatures, the fireplace should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
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.
The location should also be free of electrical, plumbing or other heating/air conditioning ducting.
These direct-vent fireplaces are uniquely suited for installations requiring a utility shelf positioned directly above the
fireplace. Utility shelves like these are commonly used for locating television sets and decorative plants.
Be aware that this is a heat producing fireplace. Objects placed above the unit are exposed to elevated temperatures.
Do not insulate the space between the fireplace and the area above it.
The minimum height from the base of the fireplace to the underside of combustible materials used to construct a
utility shelf in this fashion is shown in Table 9 and Table 10.

MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
Fireplace And Vent Clearances
The fireplace is approved with zero clearance to combustible materials on all sides (Table 8), with the following
exception: The unit may not be recessed (allowance made for mantel legs / side trim in Figure 6). When the unit is
installed with one side flush with a wall, the wall on the other side of the unit must not extend beyond the front edge
of the unit (Figure 6).

** See Page 19 for clearance requirements to the nailing flange located at each side of the unit and any screw heads adjacent to it.
*** Top vent clearance can be reduced to 2” on horizontal runs when first elbow is located at least 6 ft above the fireplace.
The fireplace must be mounted on a fully supported base extending the full width and depth of the unit. The fireplace
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.
Hearth Extension
A hearth extension is not required with this fireplace. 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.
Shelf Height
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface, use the rear vent model. For top vent models, the venting attached
to the top vent should be routed in a way to minimize obstructions to the space above the fireplace. Do not insulate
the space between the fireplace and the area above it (Table 9 and Table 10). The minimum height from the base
of the fireplace to the underside of combustible materials used to construct a utility shelf in this fashion is shown in
Table 9 and Table 10.

NOTE: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not be allowed to encroach the area defined
by the fireplace front face (black sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials to be positioned in front of or
overlapping the fireplace face (Figure 41).
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other fireplace trim, may be installed on the fireplace face, but 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 (Figure 7). Mantels
constructed of non-combustible materials may be installed at any height above the fireplace 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 fireplace.
NOTE: To avoid heat-related finish damage, use finish materials rated 175 °F, or higher, on the underside of the mantel.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
The fireplace is shipped with all gas controls and components installed and pre-wired. Before installing the fireplace,
follow these steps:
1. Remove the shipping carton, and retain the front of the carton (used to protect the fireplace during construction).
2. Remove the shipping pad, exposing the front glass door.
3. Remove the glass door (Page 57).
NOTE: Place the glass door on the shipping carton to protect its surface.

3. Route the Gas Supply Line to the Fireplace
1. Route a 1/2” (13 mm) gas line to the left side of the fireplace (Figure 10 & 10a).
NOTE: Gas lines must be routed, assembled, and made of materials that are in strict accordance with local codes
and regulations. All fireplaces are factory-equipped with a flexible gas line connector and a 1/2” shutoff valve
(Page 39).

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).
The gas supply line should not be connected to the appliance until step 12. Connect the Gas Line (Page 38).
NOTE:
• All fireplaces are factory-equipped with a flexible gas line connector and 1/2” shutoff valve (Figure 35).
• See Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements for additional requirements for installations in the state of
Massachusetts in the USA.
• 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.
• A sediment trap in the supply line as close as possible to the fireplace is recommended.
• Check with the local building official for local code requirements (e.g., Are below grade penetrations of the gas
line allowed?, etc).
CAUTION
If propane is used, be aware that with a tank that is too small (i.e., under 100 lbs, if this
is the only gas appliance in the dwelling—see NPFA 58), there may be a loss of pressure.
This can result in insufficient fuel delivery that can cause sooting, delayed ignition, or other
malfunctions. Any damage resulting from an improper installation is not covered by the
limited warranty.

4.
Rough in the Electrical Supply, if Needed
1. As necessary, rough in the fireplace electrical supply per NEC and local codes.
5. Install the [Optional] Blower Kit before Installation in the Framing
1. Remove the left side blower cover panel screw, and blower cover panel (Table 13). Retain the panel and screw
for later reinstallation.
2. Slide the blower through the opening and position it with the bracket oriented to the front of the firebox and
the blower discharge to the rear of the firebox. Bend the two tabs in the firebox floor to secure the blower to
the floor.
3. Reinstall the blower cover panel and secure with the removed screw.
4. Access the blower supply wiring through the front of the firebox and plug it into the junction box in the right, rear
of the firebox (Figure 33).
5. Install the blower control switch according to its included instructions.
6. Place the Fireplace in the Framing and Secure
NOTE: Nailing flanges, combustible members, and screw heads in areas directly adjacent to the nailing flanges are
EXEMPT from the 1/2” clearance to combustible requirements for the firebox outer wrapper.
NOTE: Combustible framing may be in direct contact with the nailing flanges and may be located within 1/2” of screw
heads and the firebox wrapper in areas adjacent to the nailing flanges.
Frame the opening to the exact dimensions specified in the framing details in this manual.
1. Bend out the appropriate nailing flanges for the drywall / finish material to be used (Figure 11). Nailing flanges
are provided for:
• flush framing,
• 1/2”, and
• 5/8” framing depths.
2. Secure the fireplace to the side framing members using the unit’s nailing flanges —one top and bottom on each
side of the fireplace front (Figure 11). Use 8d nails or the equivalent.

VENT SYSTEM PREPARATION
7. Select a Horizontal or Vertical Vent System
1. With the fireplace secured in the framing, determine the vent route and identify the exterior termination location.
The following sections describe vertical (roof) and horizontal (exterior wall) vent applications. Use only approved
vent components (Page 8 and Page 44).
NOTE: This fireplace must be vented directly to the outside.
WARNING
The vent system may not service multiple appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance.
NOTE: 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.

If you require a rear vent unit, check to see if rear venting has a vent cap and insulation in place. If so, remove cap and
any insulation in vent pipes, make sure flue is open completely to firebox inside. Once flue pipe has clear passages on
inner and outer pipes, proceed with vent connections.
Prepairing 45” Fireplaces for Top Venting Configuration
If you require a top vented unit, follow the next steps to convert before use.
Step 1. Remove the 8 screws
holding top vent cover plate and
gasket. Retain screws.
Step 2. Remove the round flue
cover from top venting outlet
and all insulation from inside
flue inner and outer pipe.
Step 3. Remove all insulation
from inside flue inner and outer
pipe. Retain insulation.
Step 4. If rear vent does not
have a cap already installed,
pack inner and outer pipe with
the insulation from top.
Step 5. Remove and discard
the large round gasket attached
to the back of the unit. Install
the cap from the top onto the
rear pipe by bending tabs out
securing with screws to rear
outer wrapper.
Step 6. Reinstall screws to seal
holes in wrapper.
Step 7. Remove the rear
vertical Baffle from top, retain
screws but discard baffle.
Reinstall screws to seal holes
after vertical baffle is removed.
Discard the vertical baffle.
Step 8. Remove the 2 screws
holding the block off plate and
gasket to top vent flue. Retain
screws as they will be re-used.
Step 9. Remove the 4 screws
around the rear vent and use
to Re-install block off plate and
gasket over the rear vent flue.
Step 10. Using the 2 screws
from the rear vertical baffle,
Install the top baffle (shipped in
bottom of unit) see photo.
Step 11. Ensure flue passage
is clear to inside of firebox,
and that outer pipe is free of
insulation.
Unit is now ready to install
as top-venting fireplace.
