Minimum fireplace opening requirements are shown on
section 12 of this manual. The firebrick (refractory) can
be removed from a factory built fireplace in order to gain
minimum gas insert opening requirements.
Before installing the 3 in. (76 mm) flex vent pipe, mark or
label the exhaust pipe at both ends.
Attach the pipe-to-cap adapter to the termination cap and
to the top of the flexible vent pipe and set the cap in place
at the top of the chimney. Attach the labeled vent pipe to
the labeled collar on the termination.
Figure 5.1
Install the 3 in. (76 mm) flexible vent pipes down through
the chimney. Attach and secure the bottom ends of the
flex pipes to the starting collar bracket with set screws on
each collar. Attach the labeled pipe to the exhaust collar
on the starter collar bracket.
Place the insert on the hearth and carefully slide it into the
fireplace. Be sure the gas line enters the heater through
the gas access opening and that the electrical cord is
extending out the right. (Cord may be re-routed to the left
if necessary. A notch will be needed in the trim piece for
the cord restraint.)
Position any excess flex vent pipe back up into the
chimney.

Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior
to and after starting the appliance.
Before making the gas connection, ensure that the
appliance you are installing is designed for the type of
gas being supplied. This information can be found on the
ratings label under the appliance. If the appliance has
been converted to propane (LP), the valve cover should
havealabel statingthat theappliancehas beenconverted
to propane.
Connect the gas line at the 3/8 in. (10 mm) pipe connector
on the valve at the back of appliance. We recommend
connecting the appliance with an approved flex gas line.
If flex gas lines are not approved in your area, you must
connect a hard pipe to the gas hookup.
You must supply a manual shut-off valve in a visible
location within 3 ft. (914 mm) of the appliance.
Ensure that gas line does not come in contact with outer
wrap of appliance. Follow local codes.
Incoming gas line should be piped into the valve
compartment and connected to the 1/2 inch connection
on the manual shutoff valve.
Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI
223.1. Installation should be done by a qualified installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be
performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).
E. Gas Connection
Note: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts ap-
proved) 1/2 inch (13 mm) T-handle manual shut-off valve and
flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13 mm)
control valve inlet.
• If substituting for these components, please consult
local codes for compliance.
Gas Leak Risk
• Support control when attaching pipe to
prevent bending gas line.
Note: The gap between supply piping and gas access hole
may be caulked with high temperature caulk or stuffed with
non-combustible, unfaced insulation to prevent cold air
infiltration.
WARNING
