INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS - FIREPLACE
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Whenplanningareplaceinstallation,it’snecessarytodetermine:
• Gas supply piping (right side entrance).
• Electrical supply requirements
(120V, 60Hz, 1 Amp) (right side entrance)
• DVLL60BP models include the factory installed Accent Light
assembly.
• Proper opening size of framing required for installation of
thereplace.Theframingofthereplacewilldeterminehow
thereplacenishingmaterialswillbeapplied.Refertothe
installation information pages 20 to 23.
•
Theblowerkitiseasiertoinstallatthetimeofreplace
installations.Seeblowerinstallationsectiononpages8to10.
Inplanningtheinstallationforthereplace,determinewherethe
replaceistobeinstalledandwhetheroptionalaccessoriesare
desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned at this time.
Thereplacecanbemountedonanyofthesesurfaces:
1. Aathardcombustibleornon-combustiblesurface.
2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible material.
Ifthereplaceisinstalleddirectlyoncarpeting,tileorother
combustiblematerialotherthanwoodooring,itshouldbe
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and
depthofthereplace.
Thereplaceisdesignedtobeinstalledinazero-clearance
enclosure.Thismeansthatcombustiblematerialsmustbe
locatedatclearancesspeciedorprovidedbystandoffsor
spacersattachedtothereplace.
Combustible materials can come in contact with the nailing
angesprovided.

Television Considerations
Installingatelevisionaboveareplacehasbecomeincreasingly
popular;however,theareaaboveanyreplacegetshotandmost
TVmanufacturersrecommendagainstplacingtheirproducts
near a heat source.
Ifyouinstallatelevisionabovethisreplace,EmpireComfort
Systemsacceptsnoresponsibilityfordamageorinjuries.Follow
thetelevisionmanufacturer’sinstallationinstructions,including
any recommendations regarding proximity to heat sources.
IfyouhaveaTVaboveyourreplace,turnoffthereplaceand
let it cool completely before servicing or touching any buttons on
theTV.

A gas valve and ground joint union should be installed in the gas
line upstream of the gas control to aid in servicing. It is required
bytheNationalFuelGasCodethatadriplegbeinstallednearthe
gas inlet. See Figure 16. Thisshouldconsistofaverticallengthof
pipe tee connected into the gas line that is capped on the bottom
in which condensation and foreign particles may collect.
Figure 16
Installing a New Main Gas Shut-Off Valve (Check Local Code)
Eachreplaceshouldhaveitsownmanualgasshut-offvalve.
A manual main gas shut-off valve should be located in the vicinity
ofthereplace.Wherenoneexists,orwhereitssizeorlocation
is not adequate, contact your local authorized installer for
installation or relocation.
Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping shall be
resistanttotheactionofliqueedpetroleumgases.Thegas
linesmustbecheckedforleaksbytheinstaller.Thisshouldbe
done with a soap solution watching for bubbles on all exposed
connections, and if unexposed, a pressure test should be made.
Never use an exposed ame to check for leaks. Fireplace
must be disconnected from piping at inlet of control valve
and pipe capped or plugged for pressure test. Never
pressure test with replace connected; control valve will
sustain damage!
NOTICE: Thegascontrolisequippedwithacapturedscrewtype
pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8
inch test point up stream of the control. See Figure 17.
Whenusingcopperorexconnectoruseonlyapprovedttings.
Thereplaceandit’sindividualshut-offvalvemustbedisconnected
from supply piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Thereplacemustbeisolatedfromthegassupplypiping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off 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).
Attention! If one of the procedures results in pressures in excess
of1/2psig(14inw.c.)(3.5kPa)onthereplacegasvalve,itwill
result in a hazardous condition.

Checking Manifold Pressures
BothPropaneandNaturalGasvalveshaveabuilt-inpressure
regulatorinthegasvalve.NaturalGasmodelswillhavea
manifold pressure of approximately 3.5-in w.c. (.871 kPa) at the
valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum
of 4.5-in w.c. (1.120 kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to
a maximum of 14.0-in w.c. (3.484 kPa). Propane Gas models will
have a manifold pressure approximately 10.0-in w.c. (2.49 kPa)
at the valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a
minimum of 10.8-in w.c. (2.68 kPa) for the purpose of input
adjustment to a maximum of 14.0-in w.c. (3.484 kPa).
CAUTION
If one of the procedures results in pressures in excess of
1/2 psig (14-in w.c.) (3.5 kPa) on the replace gas valve, it
will result in a hazardous condition.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
CAUTION
All wiring should be done by a qualied electrician and
shall be in compliance with all local, city and state building
codes. Before making the electrical connection, make sure
that the main power supply is disconnected. The replace,
when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 (Latest Edition).
A factory installed junction box is located on the lower right
sideofthereplace.Wiringmustbefedtothejunctionboxand
attached to the receptacle that is provided. Leave approximately
6in of wire in the junction box for connection.
Attach black wire to one side of the receptacle and white wire to
oppositesideofreceptacle.Thegroundwireshouldbeattached
to the green (ground) screw. See Figure 19.

Framing
This replace can be elevated off the oor provided that the
replace is properly supported by framing materials and the
ceiling clearances are maintained.
Fireplaceframingcanbebuiltbeforeorafterthereplaceisset
in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall
coveringandreplacefacingmaterial.Thereplaceframing
should be constructed of 2 x 4 lumber. Refer to Figure 23 for
minimum framing dimensions.
CAUTION
Measure replace dimensions and verify framing methods,
and wall covering details before framing construction begins.
Framing dimension A includes a 13-inch clearance for
framing standoffs on replace. After installing replace
into framing, the non-combustible board must cover the
13-inch opening above the replace.

Construction of a Fireplace Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas
replaceand/oritsventsystem.Incoolerclimatesthevent
should be enclosed inside the chase.
NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling restops and wall shield restops
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.
A chase should be constructed in the manner of all outside walls
ofthehometopreventcoldairdraftingproblems.Thechase
should not break the outside building envelope in any manner.
Walls,ceiling,baseplateandcantileveroorofthechaseshould
beinsulated.Vaporandairinltrationbarriersshouldbeinstalled
in the chase as per regional codes for the rest of the home.
Additionally,inregionswherecoldairinltrationmaybean
issue, the inside surfaces may be sheet rocked and taped (or an
equivalent method may be used) to achieve maximum air tightness.
Tofurtherpreventdrafts,thewallshieldandceilingrestops
should be caulked with caulk rated for a minimum of 300°F
continuous exposure rating to seal gaps. Gas line holes and
other openings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced
insulation.Ifthereplaceisbeinginstalledonacementsurface,
a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent
conducting cold up into the room.
