Installation Requirements
Several issues must be addressed when selecting a suitable location for your EUROPA fireplace. The minimum
clearances to combustible construction are listed below. In addition, access to the gas supply must be
considered. The location of the fireplace will also affect the venting requirements and you must be certain the
location will allow compliance with the venting requirements shown on page 8. You must also insure that your
installation provides adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and proper operation.
Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected before
use and at least annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to
excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is imperative that the control compartment, burners and
circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
Stove to L. Side Wall (A) 1” (152mm) Stove Top to Ceiling 19” (483mm)
Stove to R. Side Wall (B) 1” (152mm) Stove Top to 12” Mantle 7” (178mm)
Stove to Corner Wall (C) 1” (152mm) Vent Pipe to Adjacent Materials 1.5” (38mm)**
When the appliance is installed directly on carpeting or non-ceramic tile or other combustible material

The gas fireplace is shipped with a 3/8” tube OD (male) connection. The gas supply piping should have a
separate gas shutoff valve and a 1/8” NPT plugged tapping upstream of the valve. The stove and its main
control 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 psi (3.5 kPa). The stove must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing the main control valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at test pressures
equal to or greater than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). After the gas supply has been connected, use a commercial gas leak
detector or apply a soapy water solution to all the fittings to check for gas leaks. Never use a flame to test for
leaks.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If this appliance is installed in a dwelling, building or structure
used in whole or in part for residential purposes and the installation includes a horizontal vent
termination that is less than seven (7) feet above the finished grade in the area of the venting,
including but not limited to decks and porches, a hard-wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm
and battery back-up must be installed on the floor level of the dwelling, building or structure where
the appliance is to be installed.
Additionally, a hard-wired or battery operated carbon monoxide detector with an alarm must be
installed on each additional level of the dwelling, building or structure served by the appliance. It
shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure the services of qualified licensed
professionals for the installation of hard-wired carbon monoxide detectors.
In the event that the horizontally vented appliance is installed in a crawl space or attic, the hardwired
carbon monoxide detector with alarm and battery back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor
level.
In the event that this requirement cannot be met at the time of completion of the installation of the
appliance, the owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with the requirement. However,
during said thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon monoxide detector with alarm must be
installed.
Each carbon monoxide detector as required in accordance with the above provisions must comply
with NFPA 720 and be ANSI/UL 2034 and IAS certified.
In addition when the vent termination is less than seven (7) feet above finished grade a metal or
plastic identification plate must be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum
height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the exhaust vent terminal. The sign shall read,
in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF
ALL OBSTRUCTIONS”.
A COPY OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS PLUS ALL VENTING INSTRUCTIONS WHICH INCLUDE PARTS

Venting
The EUROPA Direct Vent Gas Fireplace has been tested and listed for installation with 4” X 6 5/8” Simpson
DuraVent GS/Pro®, Selkirk Direct-Temp®, Security Secure Vent™, AmeriVent Direct™, Metal Fab Direct Vent
and ICC EXCELDirect venting components. Although you may use the pipe components (straight pipe, elbows,
etc.) from any of the listed manufacturers, you may only use the vent terminations (caps) listed in the chart on
page 9. For installations where a snorkel is needed, please note that only three snorkels are approved for use.
Please plan your installation accordingly.
For all specific venting installation requirements, follow the installation instructions included by the venting
manufacturer with the venting system components you have chosen.
Please note:
•For venting configurations that include no vertical rise, a total horizontal vent run of up to 30 inches
(and including one 45° elbow) is allowed. However, if your installation has room to add a vertical pipe
section, we suggest adding at least one foot of vertical rise to the system.
•For venting configurations that include vertical rise, it is assumed that the installation will include at least
one 90° elbow. Up to three additional 90° elbows (or equivalent 45° elbows) may also be used. The
total venting may not exceed 20 feet of vertical rise and/or 10 feet horizontal run. Refer to the venting
charts starting on pages 10 & 11 for specific details while you plan your installation. Note: The number
of elbows impacts the maximum allowable horizontal vent run.
•f the stove is top vented, the venting may be terminated with either a vertical or horizontal vent cap de-
pending on the specifics of the installation. Refer to the venting charts starting on pages 9&10 for spe-
cific venting requirements and see the chart on page 9 for a list of approved vent caps before you plan
your installation.
•There should be a 1 1/2” overlap of the vent and combustion air tubes, when telescopic joints are used.
The EUROPA Freestanding Stove is shipped with a custom Simpson DuraVent GS® starter section that is
specifically designed for the EUROPA. Regardless of the venting brand you chose, you must use the starter
section provided . All of the venting brands listed for use with the EUROPA Freestanding are compatible with
the provided starter section. For venting system installation details, refer to the instructions provided with the
venting system you have chosen. Each brand has specific installation requirements that must be followed to
insure a safe and functional venting system for your stove.

Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc EUROPA Series 8900

Using Vent Charts
The location of the vent termination must meet the requirements of the current edition of ANSI Z223.1/NFPA
54, National Fuel Gas Code or CAN B419.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code and the
requirements shown on page 14 of this manual.
Just as with any other vented device, vertical vent rise creates draft (negative pressure) in the firebox as the
exhaust gases heat up. If this draft becomes excessive, it can affect the performance or appearance of the fire.
The EUROPA fireplace includes air and exhaust restrictors that are used to balance the draft in the fireplace to
the optimal level for installations where excessive draft might occur. The venting charts on pages 10 and 11
provide an easy means for determining whether your specific installation requires inlet air or exhaust restrictors
or both. To make the determination about whether air or exhaust restrictors are needed, a venting chart
worksheet is provided on page 12. Follow the instructions and fill in the worksheet for your particular
installation. This will allow you to determine the recommended restrictor settings for your exact installation.
Although this might appear to be a complicated process at first glance, it is really quite straight-forward and the
result will be a fire that looks and performs as intended. Several examples of worksheet calculations are shown
on page 13 to help guide you.
Please be sure to note that:
1. There are separate venting charts for Natural Gas and LP Gas. Refer to the appropriate chart for your fuel
type to determine your specific restrictor requirements. The settings in the charts have been determined
based on extensive testing.
2. Determine the total vertical vent rise and total horizontal vent run for your installation. All measurements are
made from the center of the vent opening in the back of the fireplace.
3. If your fireplace will not be venting directly though an outside wall to a horizontal termination or if more than
30” of horizontal vent run is required, some vertical vent rise will be required for the fireplace to function and
vent properly. Elbows will also be required for those installations. However, installations are limited to a
maximum of four 90° elbows (or 45° elbow equivalents).
4. Note: Two 45° elbows equal one 90° elbow.
5. The recommended restrictor settings in the venting charts allow up to two 90° elbows (or 45° elbow
equivalents) to be used without affecting the restrictor settings. Additional elbows will require that you
calculate a new equivalent horizontal run for your installation to account for the additional flow resistance
caused by the extra elbows. For the purposes of calculating the equivalent horizontal vent run, each
additional 90° elbow is equivalent to three feet of horizontal vent run. The total horizontal vent run including
elbow equivalents cannot exceed 10 feet.
6. The maximum vertical vent rise cannot exceed 20 feet.
7. There are two exhaust restrictors that are provided with your EUROPA fireplace. They are labeled “A” and
“B”. The A restrictor provides less exhaust restriction than B.
8. An air restrictor plate is also provided with your fireplace. It is a ring with bendable tabs that can be set to
adjust the amount of restriction in the air supply system. Once the appropriate number tabs are bent open
(in accordance with the requirements for your installation), the plate is inserted between the fireplace and
the vent starter pipe.

Venting Installation:
The EUROPA Freestanding Stove is shipped with a custom Simpson DuraVent GS® starter section that is
specifically designed for the EUROPA. Regardless of the venting brand you chose, you must use the starter
section provided . All of the venting brands listed for use with the EUROPA Freestanding are compatible with
the starter section provided . For venting system installation details, refer to the instructions provided with the
venting system you have chosen. Each brand has specific installation requirements that must be followed to
insure a safe and functional venting system for your stove.
The EUROPA Freestanding is shipped from the factory configured for either Rear Venting or Top Venting as
requested.
Prior to connecting your vent system to the stove, please refer to the venting section (pages 8-14) of this manual
to determine whether your installation will require the addition of flow restrictors to the combustion air inlet
system or the exhaust outlet or both. Refer to the venting section that starts on page 8 to make that
determination.
If your installation does require an air restrictor or exhaust restrictor or both, these must be installed be-fore you
connect your vent system to the stove. Again, refer to the venting information starting on page 10-11 to
determine the specific restrictor requirements for your specific installation. To install the Air Intake and Exhaust
Restrictors please proceed as follows:
1. Remove the top panel of the stove by unscrewing the 4 decorative fasteners.
2. Remove the rear panel of the stove.
3. Remove the Vent adapter attached to the unit by 4 #10 Sheet metal screws, taking care not to damage
the ceramic fiber gasket.
4. The exhaust restrictor is installed by placing it through the exhaust outlet pipe and resting it on the
internal baffle in the firebox. It is held in place with a movable retainer clip. Simply hold the restrictor
down against the baffle and push the retainer up and tighten screw to secure the restrictor. Note: Please
take care to insure that the exhaust restrictor is centered in the exhaust outlet. Improper alignment
could adversely affect the appearance of the flames. Refer to the adjacent photographs for placement of
the exhaust restrictor and clip.

Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc EUROPA Series 8900

5. If the air restrictor ring is required, first
determine the number of tabs that
must be bent open. Before bending
any tabs, align the mounting holes in
the ring over the four mounting holes
on the back of the stove. When
selecting the tabs to bend, it is
important to maintain the most
symmetrical pat-tern possible. The
first tabs bent must be opposite each
other and oriented horizontally. If
only one tab is specified, orient the
ring over the pilot holes so the split
tabs are oriented horizontally and
bend up two opposing half-tabs.
Additional tabs should be evenly
spaced relative to the first two. With
the appropriate tabs bent, re-align the mounting holes in over the pilot holes keeping the proper
orientation AND with the bent tabs facing away from the stove body.
6. Place the vent starter pipe gasket on the back of the stove aligning the holes in the gasket with the pilot
holes on the rear of the fireplace.
7. Align the inner pipe of the vent starter pipe with the exhaust outlet pipe on the fireplace. The vent pipe
will fit tightly over the fireplace pipe. Gently push the starter pipe on to the fireplace pipe until the outer
pipe flange makes contact with the vent pipe gasket. Be sure that the holes in the starter pipe flange
align with the gasket and pilot holes. When the flange contacts the gasket, install the four #10 sheet
metal screws to secure in place.
If the optional convection blower kit, # 99-57700, was purchased for this installation, it should be
installed at this time. Please refer to the installation instructions supplied with the blower kit for
detailed installation instructions.
8. Refit the stoves rear panel.

Gas Flow Adjustment
After completion of the fuel conversion, it is necessary to check the HI and LO pressures at the valve and may
be necessary to adjust one or both.
1. Install a gas gauge (Manometer) on the outlet pressure tap on the valve.
2. Light the fireplace using the remote handset.
3. With the fireplace on HI, set the maximum pressure to 10.0” w.c. (2.5kPa) for LP by adjusting the small
flat head screw in the center of the fuel conversion screw. Use only an appropriately sized jeweler’s
screwdriver. NG pressure is 4.8”w.c (1.2kPa).
4. Quickly press the small flame button on the remote to set the fireplace to LO.
Adjust the minimum rate to 3.1” w.c. (0.77kPa) by turning the low pressure adjustment screw with a
4mm allen key as shown above. NG pressure is 2.2”w.c (0.55kPa).
5. When Hi and Lo pressure adjustments are complete, close the pressure tap(s) on the valve by turning
the screws clockwise. Check all connections/pressure taps for leaks.
