INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of Hearthstone’s
Bari Gas-Fired Direct Vent heater. The Bari will
provide you with clean, efficient heat for years to
come. Combustion air comes directly from the
outside of your home to the sealed firebox system,
eliminating the potential for annoying back drafts or
other problems associated with home
depressurization.
The Bari will provide you with many years of
practical and convenient service. However, as with
any gas appliance, the unit must be properly and
safely installed and maintained by qualified service
personnel to ensure safe and trouble-free operation.
READ THIS OWNER’S MANUAL
Operate and maintain this gas heater according to
the instructions in this manual. For your safety, and
years of trouble free operation, read this manual in
its entirety. By following a few simple safety
precautions and by performing minimal
maintenance, the unit will remain appealing while
providing years of quality performance.

OWNER’S INFORMATION
The installation must conform with local codes or, in
the absences of local codes, the current National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) or
CAN/CGA B149 Installation Code. (Installer
l’appareil selon les codes ou règlements locaux, ou,
en l’absence de tels règlements, selon les Codes
d’installation CAN/CGA-B149.)
Contact your dealer for any necessary warranty
service.

Morrisville, Vermont 05661
DAILY OPERATION
The Bari is easily operated by the homeowner once
installed and adjusted by qualified service
personnel. The unit can be controlled via the
programmable remote control during the heating
season. Set the remote transmitter to the desired
room temperature and the unit will cycle on and off
as required. By adjusting the variable output control
located on the gas control valve, the rate of heat
output can be varied to meet the heating
requirements of the season. Choosing a low flame
setting will result in longer burn cycles at a reduced
output, while choosing a high flame setting will result
in a shorter, hotter burn cycle. Through trial and
error, the homeowner can select the optimum flame
size for their setting and application.
During the summer non-heating season, switch the
remote receiver to “OFF”, and turn off the pilot. This
will improve the overall efficiency of the unit as the
heat from the pilot is wasted. When putting the unit
back into service, follow the lighting instructions
described on page 21.
When the unit is first lit, especially when cool, it is
normal to experience some condensation on the
inside of the window glass. This condensation will
evaporate within the first few minutes of operation. If
you note continuous condensation on the window
glass or dripping water from any part of the unit or
venting system (chimney), immediately discontinue
operation of the unit and contact qualified service
personnel.
Clean the area around, under, and behind the unit
on a regular basis to prevent the accumulation of
dust and lint.
The Bari requires minimal routine maintenance and
care. Ensure the Bari is cool and off while cleaning,
or servicing. Have qualified service personnel
inspect the unit, and venting system once a year to
insure that they are clean, free of obstructions, safe,
and in good working order. If service or
maintenance is required, ensure qualified service
personnel perform it.
SERVICE CAUTION
If you believe your Bari is in any way, not performing
properly, immediately discontinue operation until the
unit is inspected and approved by qualified service
personnel. Prior to servicing the unit, turn the valve
control knob clockwise to “OFF”. The unit should be
cool prior to servicing and cleaning. Use of any
components not supplied by Hearthstone on the
stove voids all warranties. Do not substitute
components.
CAUTION: REPLACE ANY SHIELD, DOOR, OR
SAFETY SCREEN COMPONENT REMOVED FOR
SERVICING, PRIOR TO OPERATING THE UNIT.

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Unpack and Inspect for Damage -
The Bari is packaged to withstand normal shipment
without damage. However, damage can still occur
during transit; so take care to inspect for damage
when unpacking and installing the unit. If any
damage or missing parts are detected, immediately
contact your dealer.
Do not install, or put into service, a damaged
or incomplete heater.
The Bari requires a pilot shield. This shield is
shipped with the unit. Ensure the shield is
installed over the pilot with the open end to
the left (when you are facing the front of the
unit).
Inspect the Bari for visible or concealed damage.
The unit should appear to be square and true, with
sheet metal parts smooth and free of bends and
dents. The painted surfaces should be free of
scratches flaking, or blemishes. If visible or
concealed damage is found or suspected, contact
your dealer for instructions.
Always use great care when handling the decorative
fire logs, as they are fragile and subject to damage
and breakage if handled roughly. If a broken log is
encountered, contact your dealer for replacement
logs. Otherwise, set the logs aside until called for
during the installation.

Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc. Bari Model #8180
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
HEARTH REQUIREMENT /FLOOR
PROTECTION
You can place the Bari directly on any non-
combustible surface, or wood floor. When installing
the Bari on carpet, vinyl, or any other combustible
floor other than wood flooring, it must be installed on
any non-combustible, or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the stove.
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
Due to high surface temperatures, install the unit out
of traffic and away from furniture and draperies. Do
not place clothing and other flammable material on
or near the heater. When positioning the unit always
maintain adequate clearances around air openings
into the combustion chamber and allow for adequate
ventilation. You must maintain minimum clearances
to combustibles as shown in the illustrations of this
section.
Ensure you consider the need for access to the gas
control valve access door on the front of the unit as
well as full access for periodic cleaning and
servicing.
CAUTION: THESE CLEARANCES REPRESENT
MINIMUM DISTANCES IN ALL CASES, WHICH,
THROUGH TESTING IN AN INDEPENDENT
LABORATORY TO ANSI AND CSA STANDARDS,
WILL PREVENT FIRE OR SPONTANEOUS
COMBUSTION. WE DO NOT CONTROL THE
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS EXPOSED TO HEAT
BY THIS PRODUCT; THEREFORE, AN
ASSESSMENT MUST BE MADE BY THE
INSTALLER TO PREVENT CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGE OF WALLS AND FLOORING.
OPENING THE FRONT DOOR
In order to gain access to the firebox you must open
the front door. The door has a handle on the side
that will latch the door shut; however there is also a
mounting screw on the lower right hand side that
locks the door in place. (See Figure 3) To access
this screw you must open the lower control door
located just below the front door. Before using the
latch, remove the mounting screw using a 4mm or
5/32” Allen wrench. Replace this screw when the
door is closed for operation, as the latch cannot
be relied on to maintain a proper permanent door
seal.
INSTALLING THE STONE PANELS
See the Stone Installation Instructions included in
the Manual Packet for specific information needed
for mounting the stones.
Note: the stones on this stove are large and
heavy (150 pounds total).
Use a second person to assist in mounting the
panels to avoid injury, or damage to the panels.
Despite the mass of each piece of soapstone, they
will break if dropped.

VENTING INFORMATION
VENT CONNECTION
1. The Bari Direct Vent is approved for installation
only with the vent connecting components listed
in this manual. Use the following instructions
along with the pipe manufacturer’s instructions
to complete the installation.
2. Install the vent system according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
The venting system must be comprised of the
appropriate venting components as specified in this
manual.
RESTRICTOR PLATE
A vent restrictor plate adjusts the flow rate of
exhaust gases if necessary. This ensures proper
flame characteristics and efficiency for the wide
variety of vent configurations. Controlling the draft
also changes the aesthetics of the flame. The
restrictor plate consists of a rotating shutter in the
flue connector. This shutter is attached to a rod
that protrudes through the back of the pipe. This rod
has a lock nut attached. On the very end of the rod
is an indicator slot. This slot shows the relative
position of the restrictor shutter. If the slot is
pointing up and down (12+ 6 o’clock position) the
restrictor is open. If it is pointing left and right (9+3
o’clock, the restrictor is in the closed position. The
restrictor plate has unlimited settings. Depending
on the vent configuration, you may be required to
adjust the restrictor plate position (see Figure 8).
Once the desired position is reached, use a 7/16”
wrench to lock down the hex nut.

lower front of the unit to access electrical and gas
connections.
REMOTE CONTROL THERMOSTAT
The Bari 8180 comes equipped with a
programmable ON/OFF/Thermostat remote control.
We recommend the use of the thermostatic remote
for more comfortable performance, however you
may still override the thermostat by setting the
switch to “ON”. The thermostat controls the unit by
“calling for heat.” The thermostat turns the unit on
when the room is cold, and turns the unit off once
the room is warmed sufficiently. If desired, you can
use any wired wall thermostat in place of the remote.
You cannot use both the remote and a wall
thermostat simultaneously.
REMOTE THERMOSTAT PLACEMENT
Place the thermostat transmitter in the same room or
living space as the unit. Since the transmitter is the
device measuring the temperature, you will want to
keep it off the floor and away from any influences
that may cause the temperature in the vicinity of the
thermostat to be unrepresentative of the room
temperature in general. Such influences might
include strong lighting, a heater vent from the central
heating system, or a nearby sunny or drafty window.
Do not place the thermostat transmitter directly
behind or too close to the unit, otherwise heat from
the unit will immediately satisfy the thermostat and
turn the unit off.

GAS SUPPLY &CONNECTIONS
Figure 11: Gas Control Valve
NOTICE: A qualified technician must connect the
heater to the gas supply and leak test the unit
before it is approved for use. Consult all codes.
WARNING: THE UNIT MUST BE INSTALLED AND
CONNECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL
CODES, OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODES,
WITH THE MOST CURRENT EDITION OF THE
NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA
54) OR CAN/CGA B149 INSTALLATION CODE.
NFPA Code and Hearthstone require the use of a
dedicated sediment trap just upstream of the unit.
Damage to the valve or other components, due to
the lack of a sediment trap (figure 12), is not
covered by warranty.
GAS CONNECTIONS
The gas supply connection is made to the Bari’s gas
control valve at the middle, lower rear of the stove,
using a 3/8” male NPT fitting. The supply line
should be ½” diameter, or appropriately sized to
provide a sufficient gas supply to meet the maximum
demand of the unit without undue loss of pressure.
We recommend a flexible line to avoid undue
mechanical load on the valve and to ease thread
alignment, but refer to local codes.
CAUTION: CHECK FUEL GAS TYPE!
GAS SUPPLY
Isolate the Bari 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 greater than ½ psig.
Disconnect the Bari and its individual shut-off valve
from the piping system when testing the valve and
connections at pressures equal to, or greater than ½
psig.
GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN MUST
PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE!
Once connected to the gas supply, the supply line
and manifold gas pressures must be tested. The
supply line pressure is tested to ensure it meets the
minimum gas supply pressure as listed in the
Specifications for the type of fuel in use (natural gas
or LP), by connecting a manometer to the supply
line and adjusting the incoming pressure if
necessary to meet the required supply line pressure
as listed in specifications. The manifold pressure tap
on the gas control valve, refer to Figure 11 for
location.

FIRE LOG PLACEMENT
CAUTION: FRAGILE! HANDLE LOG SET WITH
CARE. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES AND SAFETY
GOGGLES WHILE HANDLING THE LOG SET.
Place only the Fire log set supplied with the Bari in
the firebox. Do not place any other logs, wood logs,
or other materials in the firebox. If the log set is
damaged or broken contact your dealer for
replacement. Only replace the logs with the same
approved replacement parts. These components
affect the combustion quality and safety of the
heater.
The Fire logs are durable; however, they will break if
subjected to rough or improper handling. Exact
positioning of the log set is required in order to
obtain a pleasing flame pattern and efficient
combustion. Incorrect log placement may cause
carbon build-up; excess thermal stress on the log
set and stove parts, reduced efficiency, and high
levels of carbon monoxide. If the log set does not fit
into the firebox exactly as outlined, contact your
dealer for assistance (see figure 3 for opening the
front door).
INSTALLATION OF THE FIRE LOG SET
Follow the order of the following photos in order to
install the log set:
1. Install the rear left log in the rear left corner.
2. Locate and install the rear right log.
3. Locate and install the ember pile. This will have
two holes underneath that fit over two posts in
the center of the burner top.

Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc. BARI Model #8180
4. Install the Center log. The bottom tip rests in the
cradle of the ember pile.
5. Place the left front ember strip in front of the pilot
assembly.
6. Slide the Right front ember strip next to the Left
ember strip. The two fit together to hide the
seam.
7. Sprinkle the charcoal embers over the burner
ports only. Ensure that you leave the ports open
over the pilot and where the main burner ignites.
WARNING: DO NOT PLACE ANY CHARCOAL
EMBERS OR ROCK WOOL OVER THE BURNER
SCREEN!
8. Place the twig as shown.
REMOVAL OF LOG SET
CAUTION: THE FIRE LOG SET RETAINS HEAT
AND CAN BE VERY HOT! ALLOW 2 TO 3 HOURS
AFTER PILOT LIGHT IS TURNED OFF BEFORE
HANDLING.
To remove the Fire log set, follow the Installation of
Log Set instructions in the reverse order.

OPERATION
LIGHTING THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME
WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR
EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY
DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
CAUTION: LIGHTING THE BARI FOR THE FIRST
TIME AND ADJUSTMENTS TO THE UNIT SHOULD
BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL.
This appliance is designed only for use with the
type(s) of fuel gas indicated on the rating plate. This
appliance is not convertible for use with other gases,
unless a certified kit is used.
Cet appareil doit être atilisé uniquement avec les
types de gas indiqués sur la plaque signalétique. Ne
pas l’utiliser avec d’autres gas sauf si un kited
conversion certifié est installé. )
SMOKE AND FUMES WARNING
When lit for the first time, the Bari will emit some
smoke and fumes. This is normal “off-gassing” of
the paints and oils used in the manufacturing and
assembly of the unit. Open windows to vent the
room if necessary. The off-gassing and fumes will
subside after the first 10 to 20 minutes of operation.
ODORS AND IMPURITIES
A heater of this type may produce other odors during
heater operation due to impurities that may exist in
the immediate area. Sources of impurities can be
cleaning solvents, paint solvents, cigarettes,
candles, smoke, pet hair, dust, adhesives, new
carpet, and/or textiles. Such odors usually dissipate.
However, opening a window or otherwise providing
additional ventilation to the area can alleviate the
condition quickly. If any odor persists, remove
potential sources, or contact your dealer or an
authorized service technician.
PILOT LIGHT
The Bari has a piezoelectric spark igniter (the black
push button located next to the gas control valve
behind the valve access door), which ignites the pilot
light by means of a spark at the pilot light assembly.
CAUTION: DO NOT LIGHT PILOT OR BURNER BY
HAND!
Never attempt to light the pilot or main burner by
hand with a match or lighter. If, after repeated
attempts, the pilot light fails to light using the
piezoelectric ignitor, discontinue operation; turn off
the gas to the gas control valve, and immediately
contact qualified service personnel for assistance.
PREPARE FOR LIGHTING
Prepare for the lighting procedure by adjusting the
thermostat (if equipped) to its lowest setting or OFF
position. If the gas control knob is not in the OFF
position, turn the knob fully clockwise to OFF. Locate
the variable output control knob and turn it fully
clockwise to the highest setting.
Prior to lighting the unit for the first time, wait 5
minutes to allow any residual gas within the unit to
dissipate. Smell all around the appliance area for
gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some
gases (LP) are heavier than air and will settle on the
floor. If you do not smell gas after this five-minute
period, proceed with the lighting procedure. If you do
smell gas, DO NOT proceed with the lighting
procedure. Instead, immediately refer to the What
to Do If You Smell Gas Warning, on the cover of
this manual.
NOTE: The valve control has an interlock
device. After shutting off all gas flow, the pilot
burner cannot be relit until the thermocouple has
cooled, releasing the electromagnet (approx. 60
seconds). The gas control knob is designed to
operate by hand. Do not use any tools during
this operation. Damaged knobs may result in
serious injury.
INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS
Once the Bari is assembled, in place, and connected
as described in the “Clearances To Combustibles”,
“Venting Components & Configurations,” “Electrical
Connections”, and “Gas Supply and Connections”
sections of this manual, the unit is almost ready to
light for the first time. Hearthstone tests each unit
prior to shipment, so ignition should take place
without failure. However, a number of small
adjustments may be necessary to compensate for
variations in gas pressure, altitude, and other factors
particular to each installation.
VARIABLE OUTPUT CONTROL
The gas control valve is equipped with a variable
output control. This control varies the rate of heat
produced by the unit by varying the gas pressure to
the TEK Burner. A combination of heat output and
the thermostat setting affect the length of the burn
