Preparing for Installation

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

NOTICE: Installation, service, and repair of this appliance must be performed by a qualied installer, service

agency, company, or gas supplier experienced with this type of gas appliance. Only factory-authorized parts

may be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, and all codes and requirements of the au-

thority having jurisdiction must be followed. Use of unauthorized parts or accessory items, or any alterations

to the kit, will void the manufacturer’s warranty. Using unauthorized parts or performing alterations may

also result in unsafe operating conditions.

Installation

CHECK GAS TYPE

Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is not natural gas, the On/O Safety Pilot Valve Kit (see ACCESSORIES,

page 16) must be installed. A gas supply shuto valve must be installed if the replace does not have one.

VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR INSTALLATION

Ensure the replace chimney ue and vent are drafting properly by doing the following:

1. Ignite a rolled newspaper or other paper on one end and place it at the inside front edge of the replace.

2. Watch the smoke and check that the vent is drawing it up the chimney.

3. If the smoke is not drawn up the chimney, extinguish the ame and remove obstructions in the chimney

until it vents properly.

The chimney ue must remain open a minimum of 3" at all times during the operation of this appliance.

Chimney dampers must be xed so that they maintain the minimum permanent vent opening at all times.

Installing a damper clamp to prevent the damper from accidentally closing is recommended (see page 8).

The minimum permanent opening (in square inches) is what must be provided by either the replace chim-

ney or chimney damper to vent the ue gases. The minimum vent opening for dierent chimney heights can

be found on page 6 (Per 1.15.7.; ANSI 1.14.1B).

If the area in which the appliance will be operated does not meet the required volume

for indoor combustion air, combustion and ventilation air must be provided by one

of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International Fuel Gas

Code, or applicable local codes.

WARNING

This appliance requires a reliable source of fresh air for adequate combustion and

ventilation. This is essential for the appliance to operate properly and for your own safety.

WARNING

Before installing this appliance in a solid-fuel burning replace, a qualied chimney

cleaner must clean the chimney ue and rebox of ashes, loose paint, soot, and creosote.

Creosote ignites if heated to a high temperature. A dirty chimney ue may distribute soot

within the house. Make sure that the qualied chimney cleaner inspects the chimney ue for damage.
