Installation Code which can be obtained from:
American National Standards Institute Inc. or National Fire Protection Association Inc.
1430 Broadway Batterymarch Park
New York, NY 10018 Quincy, MA 02269
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). When
installed with a blower the junction box must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local
codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current ANSI / NFPA 70 National Electric Code. In the case
where the blower is equipped with a power cord it must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle.
The grounding prong must not be removed from the cord plug.
As long as the required clearance to combustibles is maintained,
the most desirable and beneficial location for the appliance is in
the center of a building, thereby allowing the most efficient use of
the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the traffic
flow in the room where the appliance is to be located should be
considered.
If the appliance is installed directly on 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. NOTE: This does not apply to stoves.
* Air shortage caused by an inadequate air supply, improper log positions, the addition of foreign or
unapproved materials or the failure to properly maintain the appliance, may result in incomplete combustion of

3.0 INSTALLATION
17.1A
This appliance shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are
provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 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 an 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.
The CVF42 is rated at 30,000 BTUs per hour for natural gas and 30,000 BTUs for propane and therefore re-
quires a minimum unconfined space of 1,500 cubic feet.
3.1 COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR PROVISIONS
To determine the volume o
f
the room where the appliance is to be installed, multiply the width x the length x
the ceiling height of that room measured in feet. If any adjoining rooms are connected by grilles or openings
such as kitchen pass-throughs, etc., the volume of those rooms may be added to the total.
Multiply the room volume by 1000 and divide this amount by 50 to determine the maximum BTU/hr that the
space can support with adequate combustion and ventilation air.
A
dd the Btu/hr of all fuel burning appliances located within the space such as gas furnace, gas water
appliance, etc. Do not include direct vent gas appliances which draw their input and output air from and to the
outdoors.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:
A) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapour retarder with a
rating of 1 perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and
B) Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors, and
C) Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole
plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical,
and gas lines, and at other openings.
A
n unvented room appliance is recommended for use as a secondary heat source rather than as a primary
source. Gas combustion produces water vapour which could occur at the rate of approximately one ounce of
water for every 1,000 BTU/hr of gas input. During the cold weather season, indoor humidity levels tend to be
low. Consequently, this water vapour can enhance the living space. However if a problem should occur:
A) Ensure sufficient combustion and circulation air
B) Use a dehumidifier
C) Do not use the unvented room appliance as a primary heat source
Without sufficient fresh air for proper operation, poor fuel combustion can result. Carbon Monoxide is a result
of poor combustion.
If additional fresh air is required, use one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 / NFPA54 or the applicable local code.
!
WARNING
IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE APPLIANCE MAY BE OPERATED IS SMALLER THAN THAT DEFINED AS
AN 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/ NFPA 54 ,AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION, OR THE
APPLICABLE LOCAL CODE.
IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE APPLIANCE MAY BE OPERATED DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIRED VOLUME
FOR INDOOR COMBUSTION AIR, COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR SHALL BE PROVIDED BY ONE
OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED IN THE ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54, THE INTERNATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE,
OR APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES.
3.2 DETERMINING CONFINED OR UNCONFINED SPACE

10
W415-0380 / E / 08.31.12
19.1B
Room Volume = Length x Width x Height
Max BTU/hr = Room Volume x 1000 / 50
LENGTH
HEIGHT
ROOM 2
ROOM 1
WIDTH
If for example:
The length of the rooms is 10 feet,
The width of Room 1 is 10 feet,
The width of Room 2 is 15 feet,
The height of the rooms is 8 feet.
The volume of Room 1: 10x10x8 = 800 cubic feet
The volume of Room 2: 10x15x8 = 1200 cubic feet
19.3
EXAMPLE 2:
If in this example a solid door separates Room 1 from Room 2, the volume of Room 2 could not be used. In
this case the maximum BTU/h would be:
Maximum BTU/h: 800x1000 = 16,000 BTU/h
50
19.2
EXAMPLE 1:
In this example, because there is no door to the adjoining room, the volume of the adjoining room may be
added to the volume of the room with the heater to get a total unconfined space.
The total unconfined space: 800 + 1200 = 2000 cubic feet.
Maximum BTU/h: 2000x1000 = 40,000 BTU/h
50
If there are no more fuel burning appliances within this space then the 30,000 BTU/h input of the appliance is
suitable to be installed. This also assumes that the construction of this space is not unusually tight.
This would be considered a confined space since it can not support the 30,000 BTU/h input of the appliance
and it would be necessary to provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to Room 1.

11
W415-0380 / E / 08.31.12
30.1A
Installation and servicing to be done by a qualified installer.
A. Move the appliance into position and secure.
B. If equipped with a flex connector the appliance is designed to accept a 1/2” gas supply. Without the

4.3 ALCOVE INSTALLATION
55.1A
A. Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws sup-
plied. Secure through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and
then through the existing holes in the corner posts. If there are no existing holes,
follow these instructions:
B. To determine the final location of the nailing tab you must first determine the
thickness of your finishing material (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimen-
sion from the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab. Once the nailing tab
is in the desired location, drill through the centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure
with a sheet metal screw*.
* Additional set screws may be installed.

W415-0380 / E / 08.31.12
PHAZERTM logs and glowing embers, exclusive to Continental Appliances, provide a unique and realistic
glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully position the glowing embers for a
maximum glowing effect. Log colours may vary. During the initial use of the appliance, the colours will become
more uniform as colour pigments burn in during the heat activated curing process.
D. Place the bottom of the left crossover log 4
against the left tab of the log support and
against the grate. Place the top of log 4
into the pocket provided on the back log 1
Position the notch located on the end of the
center log 5against the centregrate post
with the other end of the log resting in the
pocket of log 4.

A. Prepare for log placement by ensuring the
left, rear, and right tabs of the log support and
firebox bottom are bent up to 90º, to aid in
locating the logs.
B. Place the back log 1onto the base of the fire-
box. Ensure that the back of the log rests against
the rear log support on the back wall of the fire-
box, and behind the two rear tabs on the firebox
bottom.

W415-0380 / E / 08.31.12
Randomly place the charcoal embers along the front and sides of the log support tray in a realistic manner.
Fine dust found in the bottom of the bag should not be used.
Sprinkle vermiculite around the charcoal embers.
NOTE: Vermiculite is not to be placed on the burner.
33.1
GLOWING EMBERS
Tear the glowing embers into pieces and place along the
front row of ports covering all of the burner area in front
of the small logs. Care should be taken to shred the em-
bers into thin, small irregular pieces as only the exposed
edges of the fibre hairs will glow. The ember material
will only glow when exposed to direct flame; however, care should be taken to not block the burner ports.
Blocked burner ports can cause an incorrect flame pattern, Carbon deposits and delayed ignition. PhazerTM
logs glow when exposed to direct flame.
5.3 GLOWING EMBERS

6.0 OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION
!
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
TURN OFF THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THIS APPLIANCE.
USE ONLY WOLF STEEL APPROVED OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES AND REPLACEMENT PARTS WITH
THIS APPLIANCE. USING NON-LISTED ACCESSORIES (BLOWERS, DOORS, LOUVRES, TRIMS, GAS
COMPONENTS, VENTING COMPONENTS, ETC.) COULD RESULT IN A SAFETY HAZARD AND WILL
VOID THE WARRANTY AND CERTIFICATION.
ENSURE THAT THE FAN’S POWER CORD IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH ANY SURFACE OF THE
APPLIANCE TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE DAMAGE. DO NOT RUN THE POWER
CORD BENEATH THE APPLIANCE.
THE WIRE HARNESS PROVIDED IN THE BLOWER KIT IS A UNIVERSAL HARNESS. WHEN
INSTALLED, ENSURE THAT ANY EXCESS WIRE IS CONTAINED, PREVENTING IT FROM MAKING
CONTACT WITH MOVING OR HOT OBJECTS. 51.5
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER and must
be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, use the current ANSI / NFPA 70 National
Electrical Code.
If the appliance was not previously equipped with a blower:
Route a grounded 2-wire, 60hz power cable to the receptacle /
junction box. At this point, it must be strain relieved and insulated.
The three slots on the blower mounting bracket allow ease of
adjustment when attaching the blower. For a quiet running blower, do not allow the
assembly to sit on the firebox base. Slide the vibration reducing pad (A) into the
clip (C) and up against the threaded stud (B) at the other end. The blower must
be able to be positioned entirely onto the pad.
To ease installation of the blower, remove the hinge screen and valve control door
(lower louvres) from the base of the appliance.
Tilt the blower onto its side. Slide it past the controls and into the clip (C).
Secure to the threaded stud using the lock washer and wing nut provided.
Ensure that the blower does not touch the appliance base or the firebox.
Attach the connectors from the black and white
wires to the thermal switch and secure the
thermal switch bracket to the bottom left of the
unit using the screws provided. Ensure that the
thermal switch touches the firebox wall.
Attach the connectors from the black and red
wires to the blower.

Attach and secure the variable speed switch
using the nut provided. Plug the harness cord
into the receptacle.The wire harness provided
in this kit is a universal harness. When installed,
ensure that any excess wire is contained,
preventing it from making contact with
moving or hot objects.
Because the blower is thermally activated,
when turned on, it will automatically start
approximately 10 minutes after lighting the
appliance and will run for approximately 30-45 minutes after the appliance has been turned off. Use of the fan
increases the output of heat. Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings, causing irreparable damage.
Care must be taken to prevent drywall dust from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any
damage resulting from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.
