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

The vent system components are shipped in separate
packages.Thegas logs arepackagedseparately 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,

To seal the roof hole, and to divert rain and snow from the
vent system:
•Attach a flashing to the roof using nails, and use a non-
hardening mastic around the edges of the flashing base
where it meets the roof.
•Attach a storm collar over the flashing joint to form a
water-tightseal. Place non-hardeningmastic around the
joint, between the storm collar and the vertical pipe.
•Slide the termination cap over the end of the vent pipe
and rotate the pipe clockwise 1/4 turn.

thevalvecovermustberemovedandthesmallslottedscrew
insidethepressuretap loosened.Manifoldpressureshould
be checked with main burner turned on and rear log off.
This screw must be retightened carefully after pressure
gauge is removed to avoid a gas leak.
The fireplace and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in
excess of one-half (1/2) psig (3.5 kPa).
The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressuresequaltoor lessthanone-half(1/2) psig (3.5kPa).
Step 6. The Gas Supply Line
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualified installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality.
(In the state of Massachusetts installation must be
performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).
NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas
supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
NOTE: Consult local building codes to properly size
the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch
(13 mm) hook-up at the unit.
This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch
(13 mm) gas supply line.
To install the gas supply line:
•Alisted (andState ofMassachusetts approved)1/2 inch
(13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a listed
flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch
(13mm) inlet of the control valve.NOTE: If substituting
for these components, please consult local codes for
compliance.
•Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of
thefireplace.
•Insert the gas supply line through the gas line hole, and
connectit to theshut-off valve.
•Whenattaching the pipe, support thecontrol sothat the
lines are not bent or torn.
•After the gas line installation is complete, use a soap
solutionto carefully check all gasconnections for leaks.
WARNING:DONOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
•At the gas line access hole, use insulation to re-pack
the space around the gas pipe.
•Insert insulation from the outside of the fireplace and
pack the insulation tightly to totally seal between the
pipe and the outer casing.
