REMOTE CONTROLS (OPTIONAL):
This replace can use an optional remote control or an optional cordless wall thermostat. If either of
these are to be used to control the replace for the majority of the time, leave the ON/OFF switch (on the
control panel) in the remote/thermostat position. Consult the instructions included with the remote/wall
thermostat for operation guidelines.

Operating Instructions
For Your Safety, Read Safety Precautions And
Lighting Instructions Before Operating
PILOT LIGHT:
1. Turn off the gas to the replace. If not recently done, remove the glass and let the unit air out
for at least ve (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all joints
with soapy water. NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.

Maintenance And Service
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working
properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot ame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufcient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualied agency.
CLEANING THE GLASS:
When the replace has cooled, remove the face of the replace along with the glass. See MAINTENANCE
AND SERVICE - GLASS DOOR REMOVAL. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that it
is attached and intact.
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 replaces. However, this condensation
can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint curing of the appliance can leave a slight
lm behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need cleaning initially after the rst 4 hours
of use and again about two (2) weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth;
abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and enamel surfaces. Depending on the amount of use,
the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the glass
when it is hot.
CLEANING THE FIREBOX:
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and
place on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the rebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the
logs and remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or
severe warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large
amounts of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers
as in the LOG SET AND EMBER INSTALLATION section. If new/more embers and rock wool are required, contact
your nearest ENVIRO dealer.
CHANGE BATTERY IN IGNITION MODULE:
Ignition Module
Figure 4. SIT Valve on Ascot.
If the unit does not spark when lighting, the battery in the
electronic ignition could need replacing.
The ignition module is located at the far left behind the valve
cover (see Figure 4). Remove the battery cover, located on the
left side of the module, and replace the AA battery.
Reinstall the battery cover and check for spark by depressing the
pilot knob located on the control panel.

REPLACING GLASS:
The glass in the replace is a high temperature ceramic. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory
replacement is required (see PARTS LIST - COMPONENTS). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door
assembly to prevent personal injury. When the glass door assembly is being transported, it must be
wrapped in newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag. Do not operate with the glass front removed,
cracked or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done by a licensed or
qualied service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute
materials are allowed.
To Replace: Open door, and remove the glass carefully. Install the new piece of glass with the large bulb
in the gasket tape against the unit. Place the joint in the tape in a bottom corner. Close door.

When planning your installation, it will be necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your
particular requirements. It is important to note when passing through a wall, the maximum allowable
wall thickness is 10 inches (25.4 cm), 1 inches (3.8 cm) clearance to combustibles must be maintained.
Select the amount of vertical rise desired for “vertical-to-horizontal” type installations. To determine
the length of vent pipe required for vertical installations, measure the distance from the appliance ue
outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise through the attic or second story, and allow
for sufcient vent height above the rooine. For two story applications, a re stop is required at each
oor level. If an offset is needed in the attic, additional pipe and elbows will be required. To connect the
venting system to the appliance ue outlet, a twist-lock adapter is built into the appliance at the factory.
Refer to INITIAL INSTALLATION - VENT CONFIGURATION AND RESTRICTOR SETTINGS for venting parameters.
Your total vent pipe length must be within the shaded area of Figure 36. If a 90° elbow is used in the
horizontal plane, 36” (91.4 cm) must be subtracted from the allowable horizontal run.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION:
STEP 1. Set the appliance in the desired location. Check to determine if wall studs or roof rafters are
in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the
location of the appliance.
STEP 2. Direct vent pipe and ttings are designed with special twist-lock connections. Assemble the
desired combination of black pipe and elbows to the appliance adapter with pipe seams oriented
towards the wall or oor, as much out of view as possible.

Place a bead of Mil-Pac on the
outer edge of the inner exhaust
pipe (non-ared end). Place a bead
of high temperature silicone on
the male edge of the outer pipe.
Push the pipe sections completely
together, then twist-lock one
section clockwise approximately 
turn, until the two sections are fully
locked. The female locking lugs will
not be visible from the outside, on
black pipe. They may be located by
examining the inside of the female
ends as shown in Figure 21.
Notes:
(1) Twist-lock procedure: four (4) indentations, located on the female end of the pipes and ttings, are
designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and ttings, by orienting the four pipe
indentations so they match and slide into the four entry slots on the male end.
(2) Horizontal runs of vent pipe must be supported every three (3) feet. Wall straps are available for this
purpose, also when running horizontal pipe minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained;
2” (5.1 cm) at top, 1” (3.8 cm) at sides, 1” (3.8 cm) at bottom.

the cap assembly. It is important that the
vent pipe extend into the vent cap a sufcient
distance with a minimum of 1” (3.2 cm)
overlap. Secure the connection between the
vent cap pipe and the vent cap by attaching
the two sheet metal straps extending from
the vent cap assembly into the outer wall of
the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws
provided to connect the straps to the vent
pipe. Bend any remaining portion of the sheet
metal straps back towards the vent cap, so the
decorative wall thimble will conceal it (see left
image in Figure 23).
STEP 7. Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the wall
surface and attach with the screws provided.
Apply decorative brass or chrome trim if
desired (see right image in Figure 23).
NOTES:
(1) The four wood screws provided should be replaced
with the appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick,
concrete, or other types of siding.
(2) For buildings with vinyl siding, a vinyl siding
standoff, should be installed between the vent cap
and the exterior wall (see Figure 24). Attach the
vinyl siding standoff to the horizontal termination.
The vinyl siding standoff prevents excessive heat
from possibly melting the vinyl siding material.
Note that the horizontal vent termination bolts onto
the at portion of the vinyl siding standoff (shaded
area in Figure 24), so that an air space will exist
between the wall and the vent termination.

STEP 3. With the pipe attached to the stove in the correct location, mark the wall for a 10” (25.4 cm) x
10” (25.4 cm) square hole (refer to Figure 22). The center of the square hole should match the
center line of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 10” (25.4 cm) x 10” (25.4 cm) hole in the
exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. Refer to Figure 15. If the wall being penetrated
is constructed of non-combustible material i.e. masonry or concrete, a 7 inches (17.8 cm) hole
is acceptable.
STEP 4. Position the horizontal vent termination in the center of the 10” (25.4 cm) x 10” (25.4 cm)
hole, and attach to the exterior wall with the four screws provided. Before attaching the vent
termination to the exterior wall, run a bead of non-hardening mastic around the edges, so as to
make a seal between the termination and the wall. The arrow on the vent termination should be
pointing up, insure that the proper clearances to combustible materials are maintained.
STEP 5. Before connecting the horizontal run of the vent pipe to the vent termination, slide the black
decorative wall thimble cover over the vent pipe.
STEP 6. Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards the wall, carefully inserting the vent pipe into
