VENTING:
This model must have a vent opening in the rear of the unit. Conrm this and also check that the label on the right
side panel door states “Vented Room Heater”.
WARNING: This appliance has been designed to operate by drawing combustion air and dilution air from the
room. The draft hood located in the same atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the appliance.
It is also designed to draw room air for proper heat circulation from the rear of the unit. Blocking or modifying the
louvers in any way can create hazardous situations, either through poor venting or by overheating. It is important
that this unit has sufcient air circulation for proper venting and combustion thus provisions must be made for the
supply of adequate combustion and ventilation air.
WARNING: Operation of this heater when not connected to a properly installed and maintained venting system or
tampering with the vent safety shutoff system can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
THE APPLIANCE CANNOT BE CONNECTED TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVICING
A SEPARATE SOLID FUEL BURNING APPLIANCE.
FLUE GAS SPILL SWITCH:
NOTE: This heater must be properly connected to a venting system. This heater is equipped with a vent safety
shutoff system designed to protect against improper venting of combustion products. This safety switch is located
on the rear of the appliance close to the drafthood relief opening.
If the switch trips more than once, the chimney should be inspected by a qualied service
technician for possible blockage or severe down draught conditions.
MANUFACTURER’S GENERAL VENTING GUIDELINES:
This information is compiled by the manufacturer as a very general rule for single appliance venting of the EG40 gas
stove with 4 inch Type B gas vent. Refer to the Venting manufacturer’s directions for installation.
Venting code and regulations may vary from area to area, please check with the local, state/provincial codes
regarding the suitability of your application.
For other special venting requirements, please refer to the local, state/provincial or national codes.
The venting system should be assembled and installed according to the vent manufacturer’s instructions and the
local, state/provincial or national codes.
GENERAL VENTING FOR THE EG28:
This stove should be vented by certied 4” (10 cm) Type B Gas Vent or a exible gas vent liner that may be encased
in 6” (15 cm) decorative stove pipe. The ue collar of the appliance will t inside of standard vent and may be
fastened directly to the vent.
The ENVIRO incorporates its own internal draft hood, so no additional external draft hood is required.
Check periodically that the vent is unrestricted and an adequate draught is present when the unit is in operation.

STRAIGHT VERTICAL INSTALLATION:
Figure 5: Straight vertical installation.
This basic venting conguration shown are rough
guidelines only. Follow national and local codes for
other installation options.
For the best venting performance, we recommend a
total vent height in the range of 10 feet (3.0 m) to 30
feet (9.1 m). The total horizontal length depends on
the number of elbows used; a 90° elbow accounts for
5 feet (1.5 m) of the horizontal run.
The venting should never slope down, a minimum 
inch (0.6 cm) rise is needed for every 2 feet (61 cm)
of horizontal is recommended.
If practical, it is best to locate the appliance to permit
the use of shorter horizontals and fewer elbows.
Number of 90° elbows Maximum total horizontal
length allowed
2 20 feet (6.1 m)
3 13 feet (4.0 m)
4 6 feet (1.8 m)
5 0 feet (0 m)
Note: Using two (2) 45° elbows is equivalent to using
one (1) 90° elbow.
The venting rise should be a minimum of 1 foot (0.31
m) from the top of the unit before any horizontal run
are used.
Table 1. 90° elbows allowed verses the
horizontal length.

ADJUSTING THE VENTURIES:
• Remove the ash shelf by undoing the screw at each end, pull
shelf towards you.
• Remove one screw from the cover plate located below the
ash shelf. Loosen the other screw (do not remove) swing the
cover plate out of the way and tighten screw down to hold it in
place.
• With along screwdriver rotate spring clips to open or close the
shutter to the desired setting.
The venturies allows the amount of air coming into the replace to
be adjusted in order to accommodate different climates and venting
arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the
pilot ame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are
plugged. Let the replace burn for roughly fteen minutes and
then examine the ames, compare the ames to Figure 17.
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange above. The ames should be of medium height. If the
ames look like this, no venturi adjustment is needed. If the ames are fairly short and mostly blue, the replace
is getting too much air. Therefore, the venturies should be closed slightly until the correct ames are achieved.
Flames that are very orange, with tall, dark, stringy tips, are not getting enough air. Open the venturi until the
ames clean up. If the venturi is opened, or closed all the way, and the correct ames cannot be attained, turn off
the gas and contact the dealer.
Warning: Incorrect venturi adjustment may lead to improper combustion, which is a safety hazard. Contact the
dealer if there is any concern about the venturi adjustment.

INSTALLATION OF LOG SET AND EMBERS:
The placement of the logs is not arbitrary.
If they are positioned incorrectly, the
ames can be “pinched” and will not burn
correctly. The burner come with ve (5)
locator pins and two (2) resing areas,
which make alignment easier. Using the
pictures provided, carefully set the logs in
place.
NOTE: The logs are fragile and should
be handled gently.
CAUTION: Use only the type of ember
material supplied with this appliance. Due
to the irregular size of the ember material
there may be more than required. The use
of other foreign materials on the burners
may create dangerous conditions.
If over time, through cleaning and servicing,
these embers require replacement, contact
the nearest ENVIRO dealer for replacement
embers.
1. The embers can be place before or after
the logs are placed. A bag of ceramic ber
embers and rock wool embers is provided
gently remove the ember material from
the plastic bag. Spread a layer loosely in a
random manner across the burner tray. Do
not allow any embers to rest against pilot
assembly. (See Figure 13 or 16 for proper
ember placement.)
DO NOT pack this ember material as this
could create an unsafe condition, leave
embers loose
2. Carefully remove logs from box. Check
to ensure there is no damage. It is very
important to install all logs in their proper
position to insure safe, optimum operating
conditions.
3. Place the log set into the rebox.
Locate each log by seating it down onto the
burner tray support pins. Follow Figures 11
to 16 proper log placement.

Secondary Installation
CAUTION: NEVER OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE GLASS DOOR REMOVED.
4. Upon the rst light up, watch for
ignition to ALL burner ports. If a
long delay is noted: First, wait for the
appliance to cool down.
• Open the front door of the appliance.
• Check to carefully reposition the
embers making sure that burner ports
are not plugged solid or blocked.
Important note: When the unit is
turned on for the rst time, It should be
turned onto high without the fan on for
the rst 4 hours. This will cure the paint,
logs, gasket material and the other
products used in the manufacturing
process. It is advisable to open a
window or door, as the unit will start
to smoke and can irritate some people.
After the unit has gone through the rst
burn turn the unit off including the pilot,
let the unit get cold then remove the
glass door and clean it with a good gas
replace glass cleaner, available at your
local ENVIRO dealer.
See Routine Maintenance And Service
on how to remove door to clean glass.

Operating Instructions
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING.
WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION
MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OR LIFE.
A) This appliance is equipped with a pilot that must be lit by hand by following these instructions exactly.
B) BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas, and next to the oor because some gas is heavier
than air and will settle on the oor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the re department.
C) Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not push in or turn
by hand, do not attempt to repair it. Call a qualied service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in
a re or explosion.
D) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualied service technician to
inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under
water.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. STOP! Read the safety information above.
2. Turn off all electrical power to the appliance.
3. Turn the gas control knob clockwise to the “off’ position.
4. Open door. Wait ve (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Close door.
If you smell gas including near the oor, STOP! Follow “B” in
the above safety information. Leak test all gas joints with soapy
water NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING. If
you don’t smell gas go to next step.
5. Find the pilot located to the right between the front and rear burner.
6. Turn gas control knob counter-clockwise to “PILOT”.
7. Push the gas control knob in fully and hold. A BATTERY operated electronic igniter
will light the pilot. Keep knob depressed for about 30 seconds after pilot is lit. Check
that the pilot ame has fully engulfed the thermocouple assembly (see
Figure 19). Release knob. If pilot goes out, repeat steps 4 through 6.
WARNING: The gas valve has an lockout device which will not allow the pilot burner
to be re-lit until the thermocouple has cooled.
If the knob does not pop up when released, stop and immediately call your service technician or gas supplier.
If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the gas control knob to “OFF” and call your service technician
or gas supplier.
8. Turn gas control knob counter-clockwise to the “ON” position. Flip burner switch to “ON”. Turn “HI / LO”
knob to the desired setting. Turn on all electrical power to the unit. Check that all burner ports have ame.
9. Leak test all gas joints again.
TURNING GAS OFF TO APPLIANCE:
1. Depress the gas control knob slightly and turn it clockwise to “PILOT”. Repeat to turn to the “OFF”
position. DO NOT FORCE
2. Turn off all electrical power to the appliance if service is to be performed.
3. Flip burner switch to off, to turn off burners only.

Routine Maintenance and Service
Periodically check to ensure that your direct vent system is clean.
Periodically check the pilot and burner. Check to see that all the burner
ports are clean and clear. Check the pilot head for blockage. Check to
ensure the pilot ame is blue with no or very small yellow tips.
OPENING THE DOOR
Turn unit off and wait until the appliance has cooled down.
1. Open the right hand hinged side ap, which will expose a door
fastener. Using a ” wrench, loosen the fastener.
2. Due to the shape of the bay window door. You must also open the
left-hand side ap before attempting to open the door.
3. If the door must be removed open the door and lift the door pins out
of the hinges (see gure 20).
4. Ensure the door is properly fastened after cleaning before attempting to re-light the appliance.
CLEANING THE GLASS (Allow the glass to cool before cleaning.)
It will be necessary to clean the ceramic glass periodically. During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form
on the glass. This is a normal condition with all gas replaces and stoves. However, this condensation can allow
dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint curing of the appliance can leave behind a slight lm on the
glass. This is a temporary problem. It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned initially after about the
rst four hour of use.
Depending upon the amount of use, cleaning should be required no more than two or three times per season.
To clean the door, use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth or a glass cleaner available from your Enviro dealer.
Abrasive cleaners will damage the glass.
TO REPLACE DOOR
The glass in this appliance is an integral part of the door assembly. If the glass is damaged or broken a replacement
inner door with glass assembly must be purchased.
The glass in this appliance is ceramic. If the glass is damaged or broken a factory door with glass replacement
must be used.
Remove the door with glass, a new door assembly must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer (part #: EG28-103).
Do not use a substitute materials; it will void the warranty.
CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE FIREBOX
1. Turn off the unit and allow it to cool down completely.
2. Remove the logs carefully from the rebox. Gently remove the embers and place on a piece of paper towel, until
ready to replace.
3. Vacuum the bottom of the rebox thoroughly. Carefully clean off any dust on the logs and remove any lint from
the main burner and pilot burner.
4. After carefully replacing the log and embers in their correct positions (see Secondary Installation - Installation of
Log Set and Embers), and the door has been resealed, re-light the pilot, following the instructions on the lighting
label attached to the unit.
CLEANING PLATED SURFACES:
It is important to note that ngerprints and other marks can leave a permanent stain on plated nishes. To avoid
this, give the face a quick wipe with denatured alcohol on a soft cloth BEFORE lighting the replace. Never clean
the face when it is not cool. Do not use other cleaners as they may leave a residue, which can become permanently
etched into the surface.
