INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of Hearthstone’s Modena
Gas-Fired Direct Vent heater. The Modena incorporates the
latest in balanced vent gas technology, which 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 Modena will provide you with 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.

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.)

DAILY OPERATION
The Modena is easily operated by the homeowner once
installed and adjusted by qualified service personnel. The
unit can be controlled automatically via the programmable
remote control, or manually by placing the Remote Control
Receiver switch in the ‘ON’ position during the heating
season. When using the remote T-stat transmitter (switch in
the ‘REMOTE’ position), set it to the desired room
temperature and the unit will cycle on and off as required. If
you select the ‘ON’ position the unit will run (burn)
irregardless of room temperature. You can vary the rate of
heat output by adjusting the variable output control located
on the gas control valve 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 fuel used by the pilot
is wasted. When putting the unit back into service, follow
the lighting instructions described on page 16.
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 Modena requires minimal routine maintenance and
care. Ensure the Modena 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 Modena 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.
WARNING: Failure to position the parts in accordance
with these diagrams or failure to use only the parts
specifically approved with this appliance may result in

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Unpack and Inspect for Damage -
The Modena is packaged to withstand 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 Modena 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 right (when you are
facing the front of the unit).
Inspect the Modena for visible or concealed damage. The
unit should appear to be square and true. The metal parts
should be 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
stones, as they are fragile and subject to damage and
breakage if handled roughly. Otherwise, set the fire stones
aside until called for during the installation.

INSTALLING THE MODENA
HEARTH REQUIREMENT/FLOOR PROTECTION
When installing the Modena on carpet, vinyl, or any other
combustible floor other than wood flooring, it must be
installed on a metal 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 and remove the glass fame assembly. The front
door is held closed by a magnet. Simply pull the door open
to gain access to the glass frame. Remove the 12 screws
that mount the frame assembly to the stove using the 5/32”
Allen wrench provided. (See Figure 14). It is not necessary
to remove the four screws on hinge side of the glass frame.
Simply loosen the screws enough to allow the frame to slide
in and out. Replace these screws when the door is closed
for operation; the door will not seal without them.

VENTING INFORMATION
VENT CONNECTION
1. The Modena Direct Vent is approved for installation
only with the vent connecting components listed;
Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent GS, AmeriVent
Direct, Selkirk Direct Temp™ or Secure Vent
systems. 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.
RESTRICTION PLATE
There is a vent restriction plate that adjusts the flow rate
of exhaust gases. 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 restriction 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 restriction plate has
unlimited settings. Depending on the vent configuration,
you may be required to adjust the restriction plate
position. Once the desired position is reached, use a
7/16” wrench to lock down the hex nut.
