Notes:
1. These are good faith recommended clearances only and not a guarantee of compliance with all TV manufacturers’ maximim allowable operating temperatures.
2. Since every home has unique air flow characteristics and maximum allowable operating temperatures can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and from model to model, actual TV temperatures should be validated at the time of each installation. TVs should not be used in situations where the actual TV temperature exceeds the manufacturers’ maximum allowable operating temperatures identified in the TV’s technical specifications. Contact the TV’s manufacturer directly if you cannot locate this information or have questions regarding the information.
3. Mantel height and depth must conform to mantel requirements specified in the fireplace installation manual.
4. “C” and “E” dimensions taken from the top of the hood or fireplace opening.
5. Suggestions on how to further reduce TV temperatures: a. Increase “A” dimension. b. Increase “C” and “E” dimension, however, increasing “B” dimension beyond maximum recommended typically results in higher temperatures.

C. Constructing the Appliance Chase
NOTICE: Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces extending full width and depth. DO NOT install directly on carpeting, vinyl, or any combustible material other than wood. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to appliance and vent pipe: · Insulation and other materials must be secured to prevent
accidental contact. · The chase must be properly blocked to prevent blown
insulation or other combustibles from entering and making contact with fireplace or chimney. · Failure to maintain airspace may cause overheating and a fire.
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas appliance and/or its vent system. In cooler climates the vent should be enclosed inside the chase. NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling firestops and wall shield firestops and construction of the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Therefore, you MUST check local building codes to determine the requirements to these steps.
NOTICE: Where required by code, install only sprinkler heads with a sprinkler activation temperature classified as Extra High.
· Sprinklers inside of chase: Keep sprinkler head away from vent and chimney.
· Heat Management applications: Maintain 36 inches of clearance to openings from which heat is discharged such as convection slots, passive heat registers, heat zone registers, etc. Refer to Section 6.B for Heat Management options allowed for this appliance.
Chases should be constructed and insulated in the same manner as the thermal envelope of the home based on the code requirements for that climate zone to prevent air leakage and draft problems. The chase is an extension of the building thermal envelope.
To further prevent drafts and air leakage, the wall shield and ceiling firestops should be sealed with caulk or foil tape with a minimum of 300 ºF continuous exposure rating to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be sealed with caulk with a minimum of 300 ºF continuous exposure rating or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement surface, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room.
Minimum height requirements for an exterior chase on a top-vented appliance are shown in Figure 3.16. Reference Figure 4.5 for additional clearances.

Note: Figure 3.8 and Figure 3.9 show the fireplace installed on the floor. However, this fireplace can be elevated off the floor provided that the fireplace is properly supported by framing materials and the ceiling clearances are maintained.

D. Floor Protection
NOTICE: Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces extending full width and depth. DO NOT install directly on carpeting, vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than wood. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to appliance and vent pipe: · Insulation and other materials must be secured to prevent
accidental contact. · The chase must be properly blocked to prevent blown
insulation or other combustibles from entering and making contact with fireplace or chimney. · Failure to maintain airspace could cause overheating and fire.
Elevated Hearth Systems
Some hearth systems will elevate the appliance off the floor at a given dimension. The elevation will also have to be added to the following: Wall penetration referenced in Figure 5.2 (Wall penetration) and Rough Opening Height (header height) referenced in Figure 3.8 and 3.9.
Note: Finished floor thickness should also be considered when determining installation dimensions.

Figure 3.17 Vinyl Flooring Recommendations

E. Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl flooring is sensitive to heat. To avoid damage to the vinyl flooring, a 12 inch minimum x 12 inch minimum hearth is recommended when using vinyl flooring up to the wall. See Figure 3.17. If no hearth is used, it is recommended to provide a minimum of 30 inches of clearance in front of the appliance to the vinyl flooring OR the bottom of the appliance should be raised a minimum of 24 inches off of the floor to allow the vinyl flooring to be installed up to the wall.
NOTICE: Clearances that do not meet the minimum guidelines could result in damage or buckling to the vinyl flooring and is done at the installer’s risk.
Hearth and Home Technologies does not recommend adhesive based vinyl flooring products due to thermal expansion during operation. Floating style flooring can be used, but will reach temperatures up to to 110 °F (based on ambient temperature of 70 °F). Consult the manufacturer’s flooring specifications to ensure compatibility.

E. Vent Diagrams
General Rules:
· SUBTRACT 3 ft from the total H measurement for each 90º elbow installed horizontally.
· SUBTRACT 1-1/2 ft from the total H measurement for each 45º elbow installed horizontally.
· A maximum of three 90º elbows (or six 45º elbows) may be used in any vent configuration. Some elbows may be installed horizontally. See Figure 4.12 and Figure 4.19.
· Elbows may be placed back to back anywhere in the system.
· Any 90º elbow may be replaced with two back to back
45º elbows.
· When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield firestop must be installed.
· When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling firestop must be installed.
· Horizontal runs of vent do not require vertical rise; horizontal runs may be level.
· Horizontal termination cap should have a 1/4 inch downward slant to allow any moisture in cap to be released. See Figure 4.8.

Measuring Standards:
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent diagrams and clearances for termination were made using the following standards:
· Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length of pipe. See Section 12.A (Figure 12.1), for information on effective length of pipe components.
· Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside mounting surface (flange of termination cap). See Figure 4.9.
· Vertical terminations are measured to top of last section of pipe. See Figure 4.10.
· Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.

B. Wall Penetration Framing/Firestops
Combustible Wall Penetration
Whenever a combustible wall is penetrated, you must frame a hole for the wall shield firestop(s). The wall shield firestop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold air infiltration.
· The opening must be framed on all four sides using the same size framing materials as those used in the wall construction.
· SLP pipe – A wall shield firestop must be placed on each side of an interior wall. A minimum 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap of attached heat shields must be maintained.
· DVP pipe – A wall shield firestop is required on one side only on interior walls. If your local inspector requires a wall shield firestop on both sides, then both wall shield firestops must have a heat shield (refer to Section 12.A.) attached to them.
· See Section 7.F. for information for regarding the installation of a horizontal termination cap.
Non-Combustible Wall Penetration
If the hole being penetrated is surrounded by non-combustible materials such as concrete, a hole with diameter one inch greater than the pipe is acceptable.
Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall shield firestop is only required on one side and no heat shield is necessary.

DO NOT PACK VENT FRAMING HOLE WITH INSULATION OR OTHER MATERIAL.

B. Prepare For Heat Management
Introduction
An optional heat management system allows the heat from the appliance to be redirected as desired.
An optional heat management system must be installed by a qualified service technician at the time of the appliance installation. Follow the instructions shipped with the kit for installation and operation.
NOTICE: Additional clearances are required for heat management systems installations. Provisions must be made in advance to ensure fit within the framing.
· Determine the heat management system(s) that will be installed.
· Remove the appropriate knockout(s).
· Remove insulation plug(s).
· Center the duct collar around the exposed hole and attach it to the appliance. See Figure 6.4.
Note: Do this BEFORE final positioning of the appliance.
· Determine the location for the air register/fan housing assembly.
Reference the appropriate instructions included with the heat management system kit for the remaining installation steps.
Optional Heat Management Systems are:
· HEAT-ZONE®-GAS: The heat is diverted into an adjacent room.
· HEAT-OUT-GAS: The heat is diverted outside the home/building.
· Passive Heat (PH-FRT, PH-SIDE): The heat is vented into the room in which the appliance is installed through a discharge opening(s).
· Ducted Passive Heat (PHFR-MCE, PHSI-MCE) The heat is ducted into the room in which the appliance is installed through a discharge opening(s) using an insulated ducting system. PHSI-MCE side discharge available only for 36 and 48 inch sized appliances.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT block passive heat registers! Overheating of appliance and combustible materials will occur. WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT remove heat management seal plate unless a heat management System will be connected at that location. Overheating of appliance and combustible materials will occur.

Refer to Figure 10.1.
NOTICE: Surface temperatures around the appliance will become warm while the appliance is in operation. Ensure finishing materials used for all surfaces (floor, walls, mantels, etc.) will withstand temperatures up to 190°F.
If using vinyl flooring, refer to Section 3.E.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified. Framing closer than the minimums listed must be constructed entirely of noncombustible materials (i.e., steel studs, concrete board, etc.).
Splatter Guard
The splatter guard is a piece of corrugated material used to protect the appliance during the installation process before finishing work on the whole hearth is complete. A splatter guard is factory-installed on ECHELON-C models. Splatter guards must be removed before appliance is fired. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Remove the splatter guard before lighting the appliance. Shut off gas to the appliance when the splatter guard is in place to prevent accidental operation.

Finishing Instructions
It is important to follow the framing and finishing instructions to ensure proper placement of fireplace into the surrounding framing/finishing materials. Wall sheathing materials 1/2 in. thick are specified in this installation manual to properly align with the factoryincluded non-combustible material. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Factory-included non-combustible board MUST be installed. DO NOT remove or cover it with combustible material, such as:
· Drywall (gypsum board) · Plywood · Materials that do not meet the ASTM E 136 Non-com-
bustibility standard (below). Removal of installed, non-combustible board and/or use of materials not meeting the ASTM E 136 standard could cause fire.
Non-Combustible Materials Specification Material which will not ignite and burn. Such materials are those consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile, concrete, slate, glass or plasters, or any combination thereof. Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136, Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750 ºC.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to combustibles. Inadequate air space could cause overheating and fire.
Finishing Materials
NOTICE: The maximum finishing material not only includes the decorative finish materials (marble, tile, slate, etc) but also the thin set, lath, and adhesive used to attach the decorative finish material.
NOTICE: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends using multiple pieces of decorative finish material around the opening of the appliance to reduce the chances of the material cracking. A single piece of decorative finish material (such as marble or granite) is more susceptible to cracking due to uneven heating and cooling which causes temperature differentials within the material itself. The use of multiple pieces will reduce the temperature differentials in each piece and reduce the likelihood of cracks. In addition to using multiple pieces of decorative finish material, the installation of the Passive Heat optional heat management system will also reduce the chances of cracking.

B. Drywall Installation
Introduction
If the desired finished fireplace installation does not utilize non- combustible finishing materials (such as tile, marble, stone, etc.), special attention must be paid to the installation of drywall/gypsum wallboard to the side joints of the non-combustible board to minimize potential development of cracking and paint discoloration. Hearth and Home Technologies has tested the following methods and materials and therefore recommends the following steps for the best drywall performance.
Attaching Non-Combustible Board When finishing the wall around the fireplace, it is critical that wall sheathing be fastened properly. Wall sheathing fasteners, such as screws or nails, are not permitted in some locations. See Figure 10.1.
It is acceptable to pre-drill holes and use self-tapped screws in the factory- included non-combustible board which may be used to lathe (a backer for tile, marble, etc.). Screws being installed through the installed noncombustible board should be self-tapping type with a maximum length of 2 inches. See Figure 10.1.
When installing finish material on the lower cover panel, DO NOT drill or install screws longer than 3/4 of an inch. Screws longer than 3/4 of an inch could penetrate the lower cover panel causing damage to components or penetrate the gas line. See Figure 10.1.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT use screws longer than two inches when attaching finishing materials to installed non-combustible material. Screws longer than two inches will compromise clearance and could cause overheating and fire.
WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxiation! DO NOT use screws more than 3/4 of an inch long on lower cover panel. Longer screws may penetrate gas line or damage valve or electrical components.

MAXIMUM SCREW LENGTH = 2 INCHES (INSTALLED NON-COMBUSTIBLE BOARD)
NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL ONLY IN THIS AREA

2 IN.

MAXIMUM SCREW LENGTH = 3/4 INCH (LOWER COVER PANEL)

The appliance is designed to mate with 1/2 in. wall sheathing materials such as drywall, plywood, wood composites, or non-combustible materials.
To ensure good adhesion of drywall compounds and tape, thoroughly clean the non-combustible board and surrounding drywall to remove dust. The non- combustible board may be primed with a high-quality PVA primer.
Filling and Finishing Seams
1. Step 1: Fill all gaps and joints between the noncombustible board pieces and the drywall with a general purpose chemically setting joint compound such as Durabond® 45 Joint Compound manufactured by USG (Sheetrock® brand), recommended by Hearth & Home Technologies. Use a drywall knife to firmly press the joint compound into all gaps. See Figure 10.1. Allow these joints to dry.
2. Step 2: All joints are to be taped with fiberglass mesh tape 1 7/8″ minimum width, and embedded with Setting-Type joint compound, such as with Durabond® Joint Compound manufactured by USG (Sheetrock® brand), or equivalent. Allow these joints to dry.
3. Step 3: Depending on the technique used in steps 1 and 2, two to three finishing coats are required to provide a smooth and durable finish. Hearth and Home Technologies recommends a lightweight or allpurpose compound. Allow each coat to properly cure. Allow the finishing coat(s) to cure for 24 hours before operating appliance.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT apply combustible materials beyond the minimum clearances. Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified in this manual. Materials overlapping into non-combustible zones could ignite and will interfere with air flow through decorative barrier fronts. WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT install drywall or other combustible materials directly onto the installed noncombustible board. Overlapping materials could ignite.
Painting
If desired finishing includes a painted wall, a high-quality 100% acrylic latex paint with a high-quality latex primer base coat are recommended around the appliance to limit discoloration. Oil-based or standard acrylic paints may be more prone to discoloration due to heat exposure.

= NO FASTENERS IN THIS AREA

Note: It is acceptable to use a high temperature silicone sealant to adhere drywall to lower cover panel.

Drywall Joint-Crack Prevention and Repair
Drywall joints around the fireplace will be affected by exposure to elevated temperatures, along with other environmental, structural factors due to new construction, and methods used to install and finish the drywall. If a crack does emerge adjacent to the fireplace, it can be permanently repaired by filling it with a paintable latex caulk, followed by repainting.
Some movement of the screws used to secure the noncombustible board to the appliance/surround framing is expected. If a blemish begins to show over a screw head, sand the surface to remove the blemish and repaint.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to combustibles. Inadequate air space could cause overheating and fire. WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space clearances to combustibles. Failure to comply with these instructions may cause a fire or cause the appliance to overheat. NOTICE: The location of the Passive Heat discharge opening could allow for venting and other construction materials to be visible. It is acceptable to paint the vent pipe and other construction materials using a high temperature paint with a minimum of 300 °F continuous exposure rating. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends using black touch up paint (part number TUP-GBK-12) available from your Hearth & Home Technologies dealer.
Facing Material
· Facing and/or finishing materials must not interfere with air flow through decorative barrier fronts.
· Facing and/or finishing materials must never overhang into the glass opening.
· Observe all clearances when applying combustible materials.
