Getting Started
Introducing the Heat-N-Glo Gas Fireplaces
Heat-N-Glodirect ventgas fireplaces aredesigned tooper-
ate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the
building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside.
The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless
noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control
systems.Gasfireplace diagrams,includingthe dimensions,
are shown in this section.
Pre-install Preparation
Thisgas fireplace and itscomponents are tested and safe
when installed in accordance with this Installers Guide.
Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,
particularly the condition of the glass. Do not install any
unit with damaged, incomplete, or substitute parts.
The vent system components and trim doors are shipped
in separate packages. The gas logs may be packaged
separately and must be field installed.
Read all of the instructions before starting the
installation. Follow these instructions carefully during
the installation to ensure maximum safety and benefit.
Failure to follow these instructions will void the
owner’s warranty and may present a fire hazard.
TheHeat-N-GloWarrantywillbe voided by,andHeat-N-Glo
disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:
•Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system
component.
•Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.
•Installation other than as instructed by Heat-N-Glo.
•Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.
•Installationand/or useof any component part notmanu-
factured and approved by Heat-N-Glo, not withstanding
anyindependenttestinglaboratoryorotherpartyapproval
of such component part or accessory.
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE
HAZARD.
When planning a fireplace installation, it’s necessary to
determine:
•Where the unit is to be installed.
•The vent system configuration to be used.
•Gas supply piping.
•Electrical wiring.
•Framingand finishing details.
•Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,
wall switch, or remote control—are desired.
If the fireplace is to be installed on carpeting or tile, or on
any combustible material other than wood flooring, the
fireplace should be installed on a metal or wood panel that
extends the full width and depth of the fireplace.

Constructing the Fireplace Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the
gasfireplace and/orits vent system. Vertical ventsthat run
on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to
be, installed inside a chase.

TYPE OF BUILDING. THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT
SUBSTITUTES FOR THE REQUIREMENTS OF LOCAL
BUILDINGCODES.THEREFORE,YOURLOCAL BUILD-
ING CODES MUST BE CHECKED TO DETERMINE THE
REQUIREMENTS FOR THESE STEPS.
Factory-builtfireplace chasesshould beconstructed in the
manner of all outside walls of the home to prevent cold air
draftingproblems. The chase should notbreak the outside
buildingenvelope inany manner.
This means that the walls, ceiling, base plate and cantile-
ver floor of the chase should be insulated. Vapor and air
infiltration barriers should be installed in the chase as per
regional codes for the rest of the home.Additionally, Heat-
N-Glorecommendsthattheinside surfaces besheetrocked
and taped for maximum air tightness.
Tofurther preventdrafts, the firestopsshould becaulked to
seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be
caulked or stuffed with insulation. If the unit is being in-
stalled on a cement slab, we recommend that a layer of
plywood be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold
up into the room. Be sure to include spark arrestors for
woodburningunits ifthey arerequired.

Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in-
clude one, two, or three 90°elbow assemblies. The rela-
tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura-
tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The
rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings
andtables.Referto thediagramsonthe next severalpages.
NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one
90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must
be followed if 45° elbows are used.

B. Installing Vent Components
After determining which set of starting collars will be used
(top or rear), follow venting instructions accordingly.
Venting Out the Rear Vent
Remove the installed rear seal cap from the rear starting
collars by cutting the strap at each end. (see Figure 18).
Follow the vent configuration tables accordingly.
Remove the insulation from the REAR five inch flue, pull
the heat shield out from outside of the firebox.
WARNING: THE TOP HEAT SHIELD (INSIDE
THE FIREBOX) MUST REMAINATTACHED IF
THE VENT SYSTEM IS ATTACHED TO THE
REAR STARTING COLLARS. SEE FIGURE 18.
Venting Out the Top Vent
Remove the two screws in the top vent collar seal cap and
remove the top vent collar seal cap and two pieces of in-
sulationinside the toptwo starting collars (See Figure18).
Remove the heat shield from inside the TOPfive inch flue
fromoutside of the firebox.
The glass must be taken off again for positioning the logs
whenthe unitis finallyinstalled in placeand finishedaround
it. Re-install the glass door.Attach vent system to the top
starting collars.

vent component and the outer fireplace wrap. Using 2
self-tapping screws from the manual bag secure that
gasket to the outer wrap (see Figure 19).

2. Continue Adding Vent Components
WARNING: INSTALLATION OF THIS FIRE-
PLACE REQUIRES THE USE OF HEAT
SHIELD 570-290 ABOVE THE FIRST 900ELBOWIN
THE VENTING SYSTEM.
Figure 21
To Install the Heat Shield:
1. Determine if the heat shield is required. Do so by mea-
suring the vertical distance between the top horizontal
surface of the elbow to any combustible surface above.
If the distance is more than 4 inches, the heat shield is
NOT required. If it is 4 inches or less, the heat shield IS
REQUIRED.Installperthefollowingsteps.SeeFigure21.
!
Figure 22
CORRECT INCORRECT
2. Fasten the shield in place using the four pilot holes pro-
videdin thepart. Theshield should be oriented suchthat
the 13 1/8 inch dimension (longest dimension) is run-
ning in the same direction the elbow is pointing. The
shield should be centered directly above the elbow,and
positionedso that it creates a1/2 inchairspace between
the shield and the combustible surface. See Figure 22.
3. Install Support Brackets
For Horizontal Runs - Theventsystem must besupported
everyfive(5)feetofhorizontalrunbyahorizontalpipesupport.
To install support brackets for horizontal runs:
• Place the pipe supports around the vent pipe.
• Nail the pipe supports to the framing members.
