The top standoffs are shipped loose inside the replace and must be installed on top of the replace as shown in Figure 7.
Do this once the replace is on site and in position.
In planning the installation for the replace, it is necessary to determine where the unit is to be installed, location of vent
system and where gas supply piping may be plumbed. Various installations are possible, such as, into an existing wall, a
corner, a built-in wall or a wall projection (Figure 8). Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in areas of high
traffic or near furniture or draperies.
The minimum clearances from the replace to combustible surfaces must be adhered to and are shown in Figures 2 & 3.

Figure 9: TC30 Framing kit dimensions.
Note: The replace should be in place
and venting installed before framing
in or building an enclosure around the
unit.
The Town & Country replace must be
framed in as described below or totally
enclosed with non-combustible material,
such as
facing brick.
Determine the total thickness of facing
material to be used. A thickness of 3/4" will
allow the nishing surface to be ush with
the front of the unit. If preferred, additional
masonry type non-combustible material
can be installed above and to the sides up
to 6 inches proud of the appliance.
The nishing material must not interfere
with glass frame access or movement.
A Steel Stud Framing Kit is supplied with
the replace and must be used unless the
Fireplace is totally enclosed with
noncombustible material. Assemble the
framing kit as per the instructions on pages
11 & 12 of this manual. Attach the steel
frame to the replace once the replace is
in its nal position. Secure the steel frame
to the framing brackets on each side of the
unit. Ensure that the studs are set back far
enough to allow for thickness of nishing
surface.
The sides, back and top of the replace
can be framed in up to the steel studs and
the replace standoffs using conventional
lumber. Consult local building codes for
specic requirements.
Due to high temperatures,non-combustible
backer board, such as cement board or it’s
equivalent must be used to sheet in the
front of the replace, extending 12" above
and 5 7/8" to the side of the framing edge
bars (Figure 11). Standard sheet rock (dry
wall) may be used beyond this.
If the backer board is not to be nished
with other non-combustible material such
as tiles, it is recommended that the instruc-
tions in (Figure 13) be followed closely.
Chase Insulation: When installing this re-
place against a non-insulated exterior wall
or chase, it is recommended that the outer
walls be insulated to same degree as other
exterior walls. Do not place replace
directly against the insulation. Cover
the insulation and plastic vapour bar-
rier with a solid surface, such as dry
wall (sheet rock). Consult local codes.
Do not insulate or use plastic vapour
barrier within the framing kit.
CAUTION: SEE (Figure 13) BEFORE
PROCEEDING.

unit should be discarded.
Use full sheets of calcium silicate board
OR EQUIVALENT and full length metal
studs to nish and frame around the unit.
Calcium silicate board is a high grade
material with cement, quartz and natural
minerals as the main raw materials.
(Note: Calcium Silicate is 1/2” thick)
CAUTION: Calcium Silicate board
can be damaged if dropped or struck.
Handle with care. Inspect board prior to
installation and do not use if cracked.
NOTE: It is recommended to pre-drill
mounting holes in the board prior to
securing to the framing. This will prevent
the board from cracking.

Framing brackets

The lintel on the TC30D2 is in a xed
position on the replace and there is no
adjustment to move the lintel toward you
or away from you once the replace has
been located in its nal position. Instead,
the replace itself must be manoeuvered
so that the front face of the lintel deter-
mines the nal position of the replace.
The Framing Kit allows for a 1 7/8 inch
adjustment along the Framing Brackets.
Use this range to help determine the
front of the facing material.
The thickness of the facing material,
wether 1/2 inch calcium silicate board or
a rock facing must be taken into consid-
eration before settling on a nal position
of the replace.

Lintel knock outs
There are six knock outs on top of the lintel. These
knock outs should remain in place and not knocked
out during installation. The knock outs are for a
future optional “TV KIT” which will allow a television
to be mounted above the replace while having the
heat from the replace re-directed to a vent which
will be located above the TV.

This replace is designed to nish
either ush with the facing material
or can be installed with a 4 1/2 inch
recess. (See “Recessed installation
detail.” on page 10).
The replace can accommodate
facing material up to a thickness of
1 7/8 of an inch if installing ush.
Care should be taken to correctly
determine the facing material
thickness so that the replace is
positioned so that the front of the
replace is ush with the facing
material.
Facing material must not interfere
with the ability for the door or the

Caution: While a hearth extension is not required and combustible oor-
ing materials may be brought directly up to the replace, many materials
(such as wood ooring) may not tolerate the radiant heat from this re-
place, resulting in discoloration, shrinking and cracking. For this reason,
we suggest a non-combustible hearth that is no more than 1” above the
bottom of the replace. If thicker, replace must be raised accordingly.
Caution: Hearth extensions thicker than 1” will interfere with the window
frame when opening.

Instructions for linking the wall switch to the remote control handset
can be found in the User manual that came with this Fireplace.
If the wall switch is being connected to a Home Automation system, two cables will be used; the top cable
will go from the wall switch to the replace and the bottom cable will go from, the wall switch to the Home
Automation system (Figure 26) .
If not using a Home Automation system, only the upper cable will be used to go from the wall switch to the
replace (Figure 27).
Wall Switch to IFC Communication Cable Continuity Check
It is important that the continuity of the individual wires encased within the communication cable be checked
before the cable is plugged into both the wall switch and the IFC Module. This will ensure that the cable is
in good condition before the cable is walled in or otherwise covered up. Provided that no staples, screws
or nails accidentally impale the cable during the walling up process, or any cables have otherwise been cut,
the cable itself will be able to be ruled out as a possible cause should trouble shooting the wall switch be
required.

Wall Switch and Remote Control

The NV / PV (Natural Vent / Power Vent) switch (Figure 28) on the interface board (Figure 24) is set accord-
ing to which type of evacuating vent system is present. If the replace is vented without the assistance of
a power vent, the switch should be set to “NV”. If using a power vent, “PV” should be selected. Follow the
instructions provided with the power vent kit for proper installation.
Important Note:
When switching between NV and PV, both the electrical power supply to the replace must be
turned off and the backup batteries removed to properly re-set the module.

Selecting Natural Vent and Power Vent Modes

NOTE:
• Digital I/O must be connected to a dry contact relay.
• Analog ame and light input through 0 - 10 volt DC signal
scaled as follows:
Low = 1 volt
High = 10 volts
NOTE:
When a signal has been supplied by the home automation system, the replace control
will repeat the signal every 2 hours or until a new command has been received.
The home automation feature supplied with this replace is capable of con-
trolling the ame and light on/off function with the use of a dry contact relay
common to home automation systems. Furthermore, the ame and light level
may be modulated from high to low using the 0 - 10 volt analog output avail-
able on most home automation systems.
(Figure 30) shows the wire designations required to connect the replace to
a home automation system.

Verify gas pressures with the replace lit and on the highest setting.
Please refer to the Burner Installation Manual for gas pressure testing procedure.
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a qualied service person in accordance with all building codes. This sec-
tion is intended as a guide for qualied technicians installing this appliance. Consult local and / or national building
codes before proceeding.
• Gas supply line access holes are located at the top and left sides of the Control Box. Gas valve inlet accepts a 3/8"
N.P.T. tting. Correct gas line diameter must be used to assure proper operation and pressure.
• NOTE: A sediment trap, as per national fuel gas code, must be installed in the gas supply line no more than 6
feet from the gas control valve to minimize the possibility of any loose scale or dirt within the gas supply line
from entering the control valve.
• DO NOT HARD PIPE GAS LINE TO VALVE.
A method of disconnecting the valve from the gas line such as a union or are tting must be provided to allow for repair
or replacement of the gas valve.
Check local codes for additional requirements.
1. Connect the gas supply to the gas connector (Figure 24).
2. Turn on the gas supply and check that all connections are tight and leak free.
WARNING: The access panel including gasket must be
reinstalled after conversion/installation or servicing has
been completed. Failure to do so will cause overheating
and premature failure of the control system.

Gas Pressure Check

Determine the exact position of the replace so that the vent pipe is centred (if possible) between two building framing members.
Consult your local building codes prior to proceeding. The vent kit will accommodate up to a maximum wall thickness of
12 inches.
Having determined the position of the replace, cut and frame a 14 1/2 inch opening centred at a minimum height of 52 7/16
inches above the oor. The opening may be round or square. Height of the opening will vary with each installation. As the
horizontal vent run increases, so does the minimum vertical rise (Figure 36).
IMPORTANT: When locating the opening, it should be noted that vent terminal clearances must be maintained. (See
“Vent Terminal Clearance” on page 27) section for proper clearances.
A minimum 1 foot length of pipe is required before the rst elbow off the top of the replace for any wall termination.
With this minimum vertical rise in combination with a 90° elbow, a maximum horizontal run of 24 inches past the elbow is
permitted See (Figure 35) & (Figure 36). For longer horizontal runs increase vertical rise appropriately.
The rise and run must be constrained to the boundaries of the chart shown in (Figure 36). The horizontal run of vent must
have a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
CAUTION: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL BE CLOSER THAN
1 ¾ INCHES FROM THE TOP AND 1 ¾ INCHES FROM THE SIDES OF A HORIZONTAL SECTION
AND 1 ¾ INCHES FROM THE VERTICAL SECTIONS OF THE VENT PIPE.
Before installing venting for this unit, the installer should read these instructions to insure that the proper vent conguration
has been selected.
Use only Town and Country Termination kits #:
• TCVT.WTA - Wall Termination Kit
• TCVT.RTA - Roof Termination Kit
Vent system components approved for use with the Town and Country Fireplace are shown in (Figure 34).
Variouscombinationsofverticalandhorizontalrunsmaybeused.Refer to (Figure36) & (Figure 37) for details.For optimumperformance
and ame appearance, keep the vent length to a minimum and limit the number of elbows.Connections between each vent system
component must be tightly joined, secured with sheet metal screws and sealed with provided high temperature self adhesive
tape. A horizontal run of vent should have a 1/4” rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
VENT SUPPORTS: A minimum of 1 support every 4’ must be used.
