Venting
This fireplace can be vented with Security™ Secure Vent™ pipe*. Coaxial
pipe diameters are 6-5/8” outer and 4” inner. The combustion air for this
fireplace is drawn from outside the house through the outer DV (direct
vent) pipe. Room air is not required for combustion.
When planning your installation, select the correct length of vent pipe
for your particular requirements. Determine the minimum clearance to
combustibles from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also important
to note the thickness of the wall. Before cutting the vent hole through
the wall make sure that ALL vent and termination clearances (see Pages
18-20)will be met.
Electrical
The standard fan motor requires 120 Volts AC for operation. The fireplace
is not dependent on the fan or an outside electrical supply to operate.
Millivolt Valve
This fireplace is operated with a millivolt valve and therefore burns even
during a power outage.
Fuel
This fireplace comes from the factory equipped to burn natural gas at a
specified elevation. The fireplace can be converted to burn LP gas (liquid
propane) by changing the cassette (valve and pilot assembly) or installing a
conversion kit. Only Lennox Hearth Products conversion kits can be used to
convert from NG to LP or LP to NG. Contact your Lennox Hearth Products
dealer for details.

Preparing Your Ravelle™ 42 Fireplace For Installation
Read all instructions before beginning your installation. If instructions
have not been read carefully, your installation could void your warranty
and may create a serious fire, health, or other safety hazard.
The Lennox Hearth Products warranty will be voided if one of the fol-
lowing occurs:
• Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system compo-
nent.
• Unauthorized modification of the direct vent system.
• Installation other than as instructed by Lennox Hearth Products,
Security™, or Simpson Dura-Vent.
• Installation of any fireplace or vent system component not manu-
factured or approved by Lennox Hearth Products, Security™ or
Simpson Dura-Vent.
When planning the installation for your Ravelle 42 gas fireplace, it’s
necessary to consider the following:
• Where the unit is to be installed
• The vent system configuration to be used
• Gas supply (NG or LP)
• Electrical wiring
• Framing and finishing
• Optional accessories
Clearances to Combustibles
Minimum clearances include any projections such as shelves, window
sills,mantels,spacers/standoffsorsurfacestocombustibleconstruction
etc. above the appliance. Paint or lacquer used to finish the mantel
must be heat resistant in order to avoid discoloration.
Minimum clearances to combustible materials in inches:
Front corners to enclosure (from stand-offs) 0 (0mm)
Rear corners to enclosure (from stand-offs) 0 (0mm)
Top to header (from stand-offs) 0 (0mm)
Bottom of unit to floor 0 (0mm)
Edge of door glass to side wall and side trim 7-1/2 (191mm)
Back to enclosure (from stand-offs) 0 (0mm)
Mantel: The drawing at the lower right shows the minimum distances
from the base of the fireplace to combustible mantel and facing material.
Combustible materials may be placed above and within the shaded areas.
If your fireplace has an arched face, the combustible mantel facing mate-
rial may curve with the arch of the face as long as a minimum distance
of 10” is maintained between the top of the face and the combustible
facing material.
Hearth Protection: Hearth protection in front of the Ravelle™ 42 gas
fireplace is not required. However, hearth protection is recommended
and will enhance the appearance of the fireplace.
Pipe Clearances: All installations using a vertical termination cap
must maintain 1” (25mm) clearance between the direct vent pipe and
combustibles. For horizontal terminations, when the top of the horizontal
run of pipe is less than 8 feet (2.4 M) above the base of the fireplace, 1”
(25mm) clearance on the sides and bottom and 5” (127 mm) on the top
of the pipe is required. For those horizontal runs at or above 8 feet, 1”
(25 mm) is required on the sides and bottom and 2” (51 mm) on the top
of the pipe. See Page 19 for allowable pipe configurations.
uThe center of the access hole for the gas piping is located at the
left side of the fireplace 6-7/8” back from the front edge and 2-1/8”
up from the base of the unit.
vThe electrical access is located at the right lower rear of the fire-
place.
wThese dimensions include the 3/4” stand-offs.

Installations in the shaded
area require five inches
clearance on top of pipe.

Framing Dimensions
The dimensions given on this page are minimum framing distances neces-
sary to maintain safe clearances between the Ravelle™ 42 gas fireplace
and combustible materials.
uIf the unit is to be vented horizontally with a 90º elbow right off the
top of the fireplace and directly through an exterior wall, then a hole
10-3/4” (273 mm) square with a center line 42-1/4” (1073 mm)
above the base of the fireplace will accommodate the wall thimble
and direct vent pipe.
vThe gas line should be routed to the left side of the unit. The access
hole in the fireplace for the gas line is 6-7/8” (175 mm) back from
the front edge and 2-1/8” (54 mm) up from the base of the unit. If
the gas line enters the unit from the right side the piping will need to
be disconnected to remove the fan.
If a wall-mounted on/off switch or thermostat is to be used, these
wires should be routed to the left front of the unit for access to the
fireplace. The wire should be fed through the gas line hole, along the
gas line, to the valve.
wThe electrical power supply wiring should be routed to the right rear
of the unit.
Note: The fireplace may be placed directly on wood or non-combustible
flooring, but not on vinyl floor covering or carpet.
Framing Suggestions: The framing header above the front of the
fireplace should be as narrow front to back as allowable to give maximum
clearance to the direct vent pipe (i.e. don’t use a 6” (152 mm) thick header
when a 4” (102 mm) thick one is allowed).

A 6” (152 mm) header may need to be notched to accommodate vertical
vent pipe. If the fireplace is going to be horizontally vented directly out
the back, do not place a stud in line with the wall thimble. If a hearth
extension greater than 1” (25 mm) thick is going to be used, the fire-
place and the header must be raised accordingly. See Hearth Extension
Considerations for further details.
Insulation: The exterior walls adjacent to the fireplace should be
insulated like the rest of the house, but insulation should not be placed
around the fireplace or vent pipe.
Corner Installations: The dimensions on this page are minimum and
show the stand-offs on the rear corners of the fireplace up against the
corner walls.

Raised Installations
The fireplace may be raised by building a platform of sufficient strength to
support the fireplace and pipe. When building a raised hearth extension,
please see the note below regarding height of the fireplace in relation to
the thickness of the hearth extension material.
Hearth Extension Considerations
A hearth extension in front of the fireplace is not required; however, to
enhance the appearance of the Ravelle™ 42 gas fireplace, one is recom-
mended. Note: There is a 1” (25 mm) space between the base of the
fireplace and the bottom of the decorative fireplace face. This space
will allow a 7/8” (22 mm) thick hearth extension (including backer board
if desired). Should a hearth extension thicker than 7/8” (22 mm) be
desired, the height of the fireplace must be raised the thickness of that
hearth extension less the 7/8” (22 mm). For example, if a 2-7/8” (73 mm)
thick cultured stone is to be placed on the floor to serve as the hearth
extension, then the fireplace must be raised 2” (51 mm) (possibly using
1/2” (13 mm) plywood over 2 x 4’s laid flat) to accommodate the 2-7/8”
(73 mm) stone. It is important to note that if the fireplace is raised then
it is necessary to raise the height of the header above the stand-offs
an equal amount. If you wish to install your fireplace without a hearth
extension you must remember to set your finished flooring height 1” (25
mm) higher than the bottom base of the fireplace or install the fireplace
1” (25mm) lower than the finished flooring materials for that room. This
will assure that no gap will exist between the room’s flooring and your
new fireplace decorative face after it is installed.
