PR EINSTALLATION REUIREMENTS
COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR REQUIREMENT WORKSHEET
WARNING: IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE HEATER MAY BE OPERATED IS SMALLER
THAN THAT DEFINED AS UNCONFINED SPACE OR IF THE BUILDING IS OF UNUSUALLY TIGHT
CONSTRUCTION, PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR BY ONE OF THE
METHODS DESCRIBED IN THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI Z223.1 SECTION 5.3 OR
APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES.
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight
construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and
ventilation air.
The following formula can be used to determine the maximum BTU rating per the
definition of unconfined space:
THE SPACE IN THE ABOVE EXAMPLE IS AN UNCONFINED SPACE BECAUSE THE 61,000 BTU’S
AN HOUR USAGE IS LESS THATN THE 61,440 BTU’S AN HOUR AVAILABLE. IF THE TOTAL
BTU’S AN HOUR USAGE IS GREATER THAN 61,440 BTU’S AN HOUR THEN THE SPACE WOULD
BE A CONFINED SPACE AND ADDITIONAL AIR MUST BE PROVIDED.
The National Fuel Gas Code defines a confined space as a space whose volume is
less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the
aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and
unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per
1,000 BTU per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all
appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the
space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished
with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.

30”| 16”| 40”| 34”| 12”
MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AND MANTLE CLEARANCES
IMPORTANT: To insure a safe installation into a masonry or factory built
fireplace, the following instructions must be carefully observed. If
installing in a pre-manufactured fireplace follow the clearance requirements
accompanying that fireplace.
Refer to Fig. 1 for the following dimensions:
- A. Minimum left and right clearance to combustible walls = 15”.
- B. Minimum clearance to combustible ceiling = 42”.
- C. Minimum left and right side clearances to mantle = 6”.
Note: Clearances to Combustible Materials and Mantle Clearances are in place to provide adequate spacing to prevent a fireplace mantle or facing from catching fire. In most cases they should also be adequate to prevent any discoloration or warping due to heat. However, each Gas Log installation will present unique circumstances creating many variables beyond the control of the Gas Log Manufacturer, including paint or finish composition, previous heat exposure, quality of construction, air flow patterns etc. Because of these variables we cannot guarantee that heat warping or discoloration will never occur. The possibility of heat damage exists whether burning wood or gas logs.
- IMPORTANT: Woodwork such as mantles and other combustible material must be installed as tested per Fig 2 or Fig 3. Heat resistant material are materials such as gypsum board, sheetrock, slate, tile marble etc. If the mantle and wall are both non-combustible, mantle clearances are not applicable.
- NOTE: A hood (canopy) as shown in Fig 3 is used to deflect heat away from the fireplace face and mantle, reducing the chances of heat damage or discoloration. If using a hood, it must project a minimum of 4” from the face of the firebox. Contact your dealer to purchase a fireplace hood.
PREINSTALLATION CHECKLIST
- INSTALLER: Please leave these instructions with the homeowner.
- HOMEOWNER: Please retain these instructions for future reference.
- State or local codes may only allow operation of this unit in a vented application. Check your state and local codes. All Hargrove vent free room heaters comply with IAS U.S. Requirement 5-95.
- The installation must conform with state and local codes or, in absence of local codes, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
FIREPLACE PREPARATION
IMPORTANT: Before installing in a solid fuel-burning fireplace, the chimney flue and firebox must be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes, and loose paint by a qualified chimney cleaner.
- Turn the gas supply to OFF.
- Turn OFF all electrical power to blower (if applicable) before installing, servicing, or removing.
- Clean the fireplace floor, walls, and chimney (if used) of any ashes, soot creosote, obstruction. This will minimize any smell from the fireplace. We recommend cleaning by a chimney sweep.
- Any outside air ducts and/or ash dumps in the fireplace must be permanently closed at the time of appliance installation.
- A mesh fireplace screen must be in place when the appliance is operating unless other provision for combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction of combustion air.1
This unit complies with 527 CMR 30.00 vent free appliance requirements for Massachusetts.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before you proceed, make sure your gas supply is OFF!
-
Check Gas Type: The gas supply must be the same as stated on the heater’s rating plate. If the gas supply is different, DO NOT INSTALL the heater. Contact your dealer for the correct model.
-
IMPORTANT: This appliance cannot be used with or converted to a gas other than the type for which it was equipped at the factory.
-
WARNING: OPERATION OF THIS APPLIANCE ON GASES FOR WHICH IT IS NOT EQUIPPED MAY LEAD TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gasfitter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. -
WARNING: CONNECTING DIRECTLY TO AN UN-REGULATED L.P. TANK CAN CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
GAS CONNECTION
WARNING: ANY MODIFICATION TO THIS UNVENTED GAS HEATER OR ITS CONTROLS CAN BE DANGEROUS. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR USE OF THE HEATER CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM FIRE, BURNS, EXPLOSION OR CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING .
IMPORTANT STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN MAKING THE GAS LINE CONNECTION
- Consult your gas supplier for proper gas pipe sizing. Normally up to 50’ of ½” inside diameter (ID) gas pipe will supply adequate volume for all vent free units.
- The incoming gas line may be routed into the fireplace either from the left or right side.
- Include a manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line so the appliance may be disconnected for servicing.
- Center the burner system from side to side in the firebox. In a vented firebox, if the damper is used, the burner assembly should be located directly under the damper.
- Use the 3/8” flex connector (provided in the accessory kit) to connect the gas supply line to the regulator on the burner assembly.
- Always use an external regulator for all L.P. appliances to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum of 13” W.C. This is in addition to the regulator fitted to the heater.
- Test all connections after turning gas supply on for leaks using a soap and water solution. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
- It is most convenient to light the pilot and check the operation of the main burner with the logs not in place. After carefully checking the gas supply line for leaks and correcting any found, refer to the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section to test the burner assembly.
WARNING: DO NOT USE A BLOWER INSERT, HEAT EXCHANGER INSERT OR OTHER ACCESSORY NOT APPROVED FOR USE WITH THIS HEATER.
GAS PRESSURE CHECK
NOTE: The appliance and the appliance main gas valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply system during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 0.5 psig (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by closing its equipment shut-off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 0.5 psig (3.5 kPa).
- The gas valve controls the gas pressure, which can be checked at the pressure test point (1/8” NPT plug) located on the side of the valve (see schematic below).
- The pressure should be checked with the heater burner and the control set to high (HI).
- The pressure is preset and locked to avoid tampering. If the pressure is not as specified in “BTU Rating and Pressure Requirements” (pg. 3), contact your dealer.
- Replace the test plug after measuring gas pressure. Check for gas leaks.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the appliance if any part has been submerged under water. Immediately call a qualified technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
