Exhaust Restrictor Settings:
The exhaust Restrictor is used on this unit to fine tune and adjust the flame
appearance. Climate, altitude, fuel-type, and vent configuration will depict
which restrictor setting should be used. Its usage will be dependant on
individual installations, but not always required.
Adjustments should be made after running for 15-20 minutes. Consider that the
flame will continue to grow as more time passes. Note: The air shutter
(venturi) can also be adjusted in conjunction with restrictor.
The restrictor is located at the top left of the glass Above the glass clamp.
To adjust the Restrictor you will need a 7/16″ wrench on the nut. It may be
easier to access the restrictor nut with the glass hand knob Removed.
Venting Introduction:
Your fireplaces can operate using a natural vent or power vent system
(50-3883).
Natural Vent (Rigid): 5″ X 8″ venting system
Power Vent: 4″ x 6 5/8″ rigid vent (a reducer will be required) See power vent
kit for further information.
Follow the venting instructions for safe and proper operation of the
appliance. Deviation from the minimum vertical length can create difficulty in
burner start-up and sooting.
Allow several minutes for the flame to stabilize after ignition under extreme
vent configurations. It is recommended for vent lengths that pass through
unheated spaces (garages, attics, crawl spaces) be insulated to minimize
condensation. Use at least 3 screws at each vent connection. Check
periodically that the vents are unrestricted, especially the exterior vent
cap.
Venting Considerations: 1. A power vent system should be considered for
extreme weather areas (wind, cold). 2. 36″ minimum vertical rise before an
elbow does not
apply to power vent units. 3. Flex venting is intended for use with simple
vent
configurations. 4. Use a snorkle termination for more draft (if needed).
Check periodically that the vents are unrestricted, especially the exterior
Venting Termination. Check for
obstructions that would impede airflow.

WARNING: · Follow venting instructions exactly for safe and
proper appliance operation. · Use aluminum tape for all venting connections. ·
Risk of fire, explosion, or asphyxiation if improper
venting setup. · Risk of fire, do not allow loose materials or insulation
to contact vent pipe. Remove insulation to allow installation of thimble and
maintain clearances to
combustible materials.
Allowable Snorkel Installation
A snorkel is permitted for use on installations where additional vertical rise
is required on the exterior of the building. Refer to the table for the
approved models. Note – The use of a snorkel does not reduce the minimum
required venting or termination clearances. Note – If there is a soffit above
the snorkel termination the supplied heat deflector must be installed.
Trimming the length may be required to fit correctly.

Framing and Installation
Mantel Clearance
First determine what mantel height or depth you would like and use the graph
to determine the minimum corresponding dimension. Mantel graph dimensions are
measured from the opening of the appliance. It is acceptable to install a
combustible mantel over top of the non-combustible board.
TV Clearances
Use of the Cool Surface System is highly recommended when mounting a TV or
delicate artwork above the appliance. If the system is not desired, some
considerations must be made to ensure above objects are protected from the
heat. A mantel is recommended for heat protection.
There is no guarantee that the temperature will not harm the longevity of your
TV. Make sure to consult your TV manufactures specifications to find the
maximum allowable operating temperature. Since every home and installation is
unique, temperatures should be verified at the time of install. A TV should
not be installed if temperatures exceed the manufacturers maximum allowable
temperature.
Important Note
While not strictly necessary,
it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to install a mantel
when installing a TV above the Fireplace. Always maintain minimum mantel
clearances. (As seen above.)
At a minimum, the mantel depth should be equal to the total depth of the TV
including the wall mount.
it is recommended to exceed the minimum mantel depth by 1-2 inches.

Vertical Termination
1. Check venting clearances and termination restrictions for required
clearances to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs,
enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack
air spaces with insulation.
2. Set the fireplace in the desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the
ceiling to the fireplace flue exit and mark the location where the vent will
penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb
bob from the roof to the hole and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate
the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will
obstruct the venting system. Relocate the fireplace or offset the venting to
avoid cutting load bearing members.
3. To determine the length of pipe required, measure room height, ceiling
thickness, and vertical rise in an attic or second story. Firestops are
required at each floor level beyond the first floor ceiling support/wall
thimble cover or cathedral ceiling support box. If an offset is required to
avoid obstructions, use a pair of 45 degree elbows. For proper support, use
elbow straps with offsets. Use wall straps for long vertical runs. Attic
insulation shield is required in attic.
4. Measure roof pitch. Select the proper flashing and storm collar and
determine the height above the roof (see Table). A non-corrosive pipe material
must be used for all exterior pipe lengths. Seal nail heads with silicone.

Venting Venting
NOTES:
1. If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions, it is
important to support the vent pipe every 3′ (914 mm) using wall straps to
avoid excessive stress on the elbows.
2. Use 45° degree elbows instead of 90° degree elbows when ever possible. The
45° degree elbow offers less restriction to the flow of flue gases and intake
air.
4. If the vent termination is not being attached to wood, the four wood
screws provided should be replaced with material appropriate fasteners.
5. For buildings with vinyl siding, a vinyl standoff should be installed
between the vent cap and the exterior wall. Attach the vinyl siding standoff
to the horizontal termination. The termination attaches to the flat portion of
the standoff which provides an air space between the wall and the vent
termination. The air gap prevents excessive heat from possibly melting the
vinyl siding.
Wall Thimble Fire Stop
Elbow
Exhaust Pipe
Combustion Air Outer Pipe
Horizontal Termination
Wall Framing
Horizontal Termination:
1. A minimum 1ft vertical section before an elbow is required when
horizontally terminating with an approved venting cap.
2. Horizontal pipes must not be level. For every 12″ (305 mm) of horizontal
travel there should be at least ¼” (6.4 mm) of vertical rise. Never allow the
vent to run downward, as this could cause high temperatures or even present
the possibility of a fire.
3. The exterior of the horizontal vent termination must not be blocked or
obstructed.
34 |
6. Horizontal pipes must be supported every 3′ (914 mm). Plumber’s “all
round” strap will suffice.
7. Clearances to combustibles must be maintained when running horizontal
pipe. 1″ (25 mm) sides, 1″ (25 mm) bottom, 3″ (76 mm) top, and 3″ (76 mm)
above elbows outside the immidiate chase.
8. Set the fireplace in the desired location. Check to determine if wall
studs will be in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the
case, the location of the fireplace may have to be adjusted or the venting may
have to be offset.
9. Many direct vent pipe sections are designed with special twist-lock
connections. Dry fit the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the
appliance adaptor.

Wall / Ceiling Thimble
Use a OFFSET wall thimble when passing through an exterior wall or ceiling.
Typically the framing hole will be 10 1/2″ x 10 1/2″ but each thimble
manufacturer may vary. Installations in Canada require a wall thimble be used
but they are recommended for all installations. All sealing and vapour
barriers must comply with local building codes.
Use a fire stop when passing through interior joints of subsequent floors.

Initial startup & Venting
Feet of Venting
Venting Chart
The Power vent allows the unit to be used with up to 95ft of venting. On
shorter vent runs the fan voltage should be reduced. This will restrict the
combustion air leading to a better flame quality and appearance. Use the chart
below to set the rheostat based on your vent run. This Chart is for both NG &
LP Fuel Types

Voltage measured at rheostat
Initial Startup (Rheostat voltage setting)
The unit comes with test ports to allow you to use a multi meter to see the
voltage going to the power vent fan. You will need to set the rheostat voltage
on your first initial firing of the unit.
To access the test ports, remove the screen. (see page 13) Underneath the
control panel on the right hand side. You will see the rheostat. The test
ports are
VOLTAGE TEST PORTS
situated above the rheostat.
Initial startup assumes you have completed the previous installation sections
of this manual.
1. Verify burner switch on the side control panel is set to the ON position
I =on 0 =Off –
Powervent ON/OFF

Inlet Outlet
2. Switch top switch to the POWERVENT Postion 3. Ensure rheostat is set to
Maximum for initial startup. To do that rotate rheostat all the way anti-
clockwise until a “click” is heard (that is now in the off position.) Now
rotate clockwise. Just after the “click” It is at its maximum voltage. 4. Use
your remote to turn on the unit. This can take up to 30 Seconds When using the
Power vent. Refer to trouble shooting section of this manual on page 44 if the
unit does not start) 5. When the unit is running insert your probes into the
test ports dial down the voltage based on the venting chart. Once the voltage
is set, you will not need to adjust the voltage again.
IMPORTANT NOTE Do not set the Rheostat below 95 volts. The pressure switch in
the power vent will not activate, and your unit
will not turn on.
