requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in the
U.S.A. and Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000
feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by
changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input
rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above
a 2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations
between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada. If the heating
value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not
apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the
local gas utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.

A. Design and Installation Considerations
Heat & Glo B-type vent gas appliances are designed to
operate with all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of
the building, and combustion air pulled from the room.
Getting Started
2
When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to
determine the following information before installing:
• Where the appliance is to be installed. See Sections 3
and 4.
• Theventsystem configurationtobeused. See Sections
5 and 6.
• Gas supply piping. See Sections 7 and 9.
• Electrical wiring. See Sections 7 and 10.
• Framing and finishing details. See Sections 3, 6 and 11.
• Whetheroptionalaccessories—devicessuchasafan,wall
switch, or remote control—are desired. See Section 10.
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state
and national codes and regulations.
• Consult local building, fire officials or authorities
having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation
inspection, and permits.

B. Negative Pressure
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent fireplaces
successfully. Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of fireplace and chimney
Negative pressure results from the imbalanceof air avail-
able for the fireplace to operate properly. Causes for this
imbalance include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)
• Range hoods
• Combustionairrequirementsfor furnaces,waterheaters
and other combustion appliances
• Clothes dryers
• Location of return-air to furnace or air conditioning
• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks (recessed lighting, attic hatch
opening, duct leaks)
To minimize the effects ofnegative air pressure, the follow-
ing must be considered:
• Install the fresh air kit. Install the intake on the side of
the house towards prevailing winds during the heating
season.
• Ensureadequate outdoorair issupplied forcombustion
appliances and exhaust equipment.
• Ensurefurnace andairconditioning returnvents arenot
located in the immediate vicinity of the fireplace.
• Avoid installing the fireplace near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces.
• Recessedlightingshould be of“sealedcan”design; attic
hatches weather stripped or sealed; and attic mounted
ductwork and air handler joints and seams taped or
sealed.
• Basement installations should be avoided due to stack
effect. Stack effect creates negative pressure in lower
levels. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends the
use of direct vent fireplaces in basements.
Location of the fireplace and chimney will affect perfor-
mance. As shown in Figure 2.1, the chimney should:
• Be installed through the warm space enclosed by the
building envelope. This helps to produce more draft,
especially during lighting and die-down of the fire.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the effects of wind turbulence.
• Belocatedawayfrom trees,adjacentstructures,uneven
roof lines and other obstructions.
Offsets can restrict draft so their use should be minimized.
Consider the fireplace location relative to floor and ceiling
and attic joists.
Asphyxiation Risk.
• Negative pressure can cause spillage of
combustion fumes and soot.
• Fireplace needs to draft properly for safety.

B. Constructing the Appliance Chase
A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the
gasappliance and/or itsvent system. Vertical ventsthat run
on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to
be, installed inside a chase.
Construction of the chase may vary with the type of building.
These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements
of local building codes. Local building codes MUST be
checked.
Chasesshould be constructed in the mannerof alloutside
walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting problems.
The chase should not break the outside building envelope
in any manner.
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever floor of the chase
shouldbeinsulated.Vapor andairinfiltrationbarriersshould
beinstalledin thechaseasper regionalcodesforthe restof
the home.Additionally, in regions where cold air infiltration
may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be sheetrocked
and taped for maximum air tightness.
To further prevent drafts in cold climates, the firestops
shouldbecaulked with hightemperaturecaulk to sealgaps.
Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with
high temp caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the
appliance is being installed on a cement slab, a layer of
plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting
cold up into the room.

HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved
without requiring changes for elevations from 0 to
2000 feet in the U.S.A. and Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above
2000 feet, it may be necessary to decrease the
input rating by changing the existing burner orifice
to a smaller size. Input rate should be reduced by
4% for each 1000 feet above a 2000 foot elevation
in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations between 2000
and 4500 feet in Canada. If the heating value of the
gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To
identify the proper orifice size, check with the local
gas utility.
Ifinstalling thisappliance atan elevation above 4500
feet (in Canada), check with local authorities.
• Ensurethat gaslinedoes notcome in contactwith outer
wrap of appliance. Follow local codes.
• Incoming gas line should be piped into the valve com-
partment and connected to the 1/2 inch connection on
the manual shutoff valve.
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
Explosion Risk
Fire Risk
Asphyxiation Risk
• Check all fittings and connections.
• Do not use open flame.
• After the gas line installation is complete,
all connections must be tightened and
checked for leaks with a commercially-
available, non-corrosive leak check
solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check
solution following testing.
WARNING
• A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines.
When first lighting appliance it will take a short time for
air to purge from lines. When purging is complete the
appliance will light and operate normally.
Fittings and connections may have loosened during
shipping and handling.
