Fireplace Safety
WARNING: Extremely Hot!
Heat and flammability
• Some parts of the fireplace are extremely hot, particu-
larly the glass window. Use the barrier screen provided
or a gate to reduce the risk of severe burns.
• The glass windows can exceed 500°F at full capacity.
• Always keep the appliance clear and free from combus-
tible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
• Be aware of hot wall surfaces! The wall directly above
the fireplace can get very hot when the fireplace heats.
Although safe, it may reach temperatures in excess of
200ºF (93°C) depending on choice of optional accesso-
ries. Do not touch!
• Be aware of hot hearth/floor surfaces! Any projections
directly around the fireplace can get very hot when the
fireplace heats. Although safe, they may reach temper-
atures in excess of 200ºF (93°C) depending on elevation
of hearth. Be careful of touching these! Temperature
of projection surfaces will be reduced when barrier
screens are installed.
• Some materials or items, although safe, may discolor,
shrink, warp, crack, peel, and so on because of the heat
produced by the fireplace. Avoid placing candles, paint-
ings, photos and other combustible objects sensitive
to heat or furniture within 36 inches (0.9m) around the
fireplace.
• Solid wood flooring in front of the fireplace (if allowed)
may shrink during the heating season due to heat.
• Any safety screen, guard, or barrier removed for servic-
ing an appliance must be replaced prior to operating
the appliance
• Due to its high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of traffic areas and away from furniture and
draperies.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards
of high surface temperature and should stay away to
avoid burns or clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised when
they are in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers,
young children, and others may be susceptible to
accidental contact burns. A physical barrier is recom-
mended if there are at-risk individuals in the house. To
restrict access to a fireplace or stove, install an adjust-
able safety gate to keep toddlers, young children, and
other at-risk individuals out of the room and away from
hot surfaces.
• A barrier designed to reduce the risk of burns from the
hot viewing glass is provided with this appliance and
shall be installed for the protection of children and

Preparation Existing Fireplace Preparation
Existing Fireplace Preparation
A few points must be considered before inserting
the 700 into an existing fireplace cavity. Generally, no
modifications are allowed to the existing fireplace that
will compromise the integrity of the existing fireplace.
Components that are bolted or screwed on such as
dampers or baffles may be removed to accommodate
the installation of the 700 engine. Cutting away
any sheet metal parts of the existing fireplace to
accommodate the installation of the 700 is prohibited.
Check with local authorities if in doubt.
Clean Fireplace and Chimney
Have the chimney swept and the fireplace cavity
including ash dumps and clean-outs cleaned before
installing the 700 heater and vent liners. Any creosote
or soot residue remaining in the fireplace cavity
chimney or clean-out may cause odors or stains once
the 700 insert is installed. Consult with chimney sweep
for information on how best to clean.
Existing Dampers
Factory-built, zero-clearance fireplaces will require
the damper to be removed in order to install the vent
liners. These dampers are usually bolted into place.
Dampers in masonry fireplaces must be fixed open and
may remain in place.
Ash Retaining Curbs
Some fireplaces (particularly factory-built) have a
raised curb at the front edge to retain ashes. Check the
dimensions carefully to ensure the 700 engine will fit
behind any raised curb (some curbs may be removed
separately from the refractory base).
Gas Line Routing
Plan the routing of the gas line before proceeding.
Utilize the existing hole for the gas line of the factory-
built fireplace.
If the fireplace has no access hole, carefully drill an
access hole of 1.5 inch (38 mm) or less through the
lower sides or bottom of the firebox. The access hole
must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after
the gas supply line has been installed.
See Dimensions section for detailed location of gas
inlet. Also, take into consideration whether or not a fan
or shut-offvalve will interfere when planning routing of
the gas line.
Existing Glass Doors and Wire Screens
Existing glass doors must be permanently removed
prior to installing the 700 insert.
Combustible Mantels
Combustible mantel clearances must conform to those
required for the original solid-fuel fireplace into which
the 700 is being installed.
Attach Warning Conversion Plate to Existing
Fireplace
(plate supplied loose with 700 heater)
Attach the “This fireplace has been converted...” label to
the existing fireplace using screws or other mechanical
means and store any removed parts in back of the
existing fireplace for future use.

Installation Window and Fan
Install Fan Kit (if used)
If the 795CFKV2 Circulating Fan Kit (blower) is to be
installed, we suggest that you do it now.
The fan cavity is accessible from the back of the firebox
to facilitate its installation. If the fan is retrofitted after
the installation of the appliance, the appliance will need
to be removed. Therefore, we recommend that, where
possible, the fan be installed before the appliance is
fitted into the cavity.
Refer to instructions provided with the 795CFKV2 to
install the fan.
6’ power
cord
Remove Window
The window is held in place by a spring-loaded lever on
each side. To remove the window:
1. Locate the levers on each side of the window
towards the top. Using your finger, pull the lever
towards you and unhook it from the window frame
bracket.
2. Gently pull the top of the window outward.
3. Lift the window out of its bottom railing and set it
aside in a safe place to avoid damage.
WARNING
Optional electrical accessories ARE NOT
ALLOWED when adapting appliance for
outdoor use.

15
Connect Venting
IMPORTANT: This appliance’s venting system is room sealed and therefore
does not require room air to be used in the combustion process.
1. Rough-in two 3” diameter vent liners into the existing chimney
system from the roof. Be careful not to tear or damage the liners in
the process. It may be easier to install both liners at the same time
rather than one at a time. Leave plenty of liners at the bottom to
facilitate the connection of the liners to the vent slider. It is best to
leave the top termination until later.
Designate and mark the top and bottom of one liner as “EX-
HAUST” to avoid confusion later.
2. Release the two screws retaining the vent slider to the front of the
firebox. Remove the slider from the firebox by sliding it towards the
back of the firebox.
3. Fit the two liners ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected to
the identified “EXHAUST” vent collar. Secure liners to collars with
hose clamps (included) and 2 tapping screws per liner.
4. Slide the firebox onto the vent slider in the cavity taking care not to
damage the liners. Make sure that the rear edge of the slider is
hooked over the cleat on the firebox. Secure the vent slider to the
front of the firebox with two screws removed earlier.
5. From the roof, pull the liners and fit the flashing.
6. Fit the terminal cap ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected
to the exhaust vent collar. Secure with screws.

Connect Gas Supply
The gas supply inlet connection is a 1/2” NPT female.
Gas shut-offvalve supplied on the end of stainless steel
flexible connector. Flex connector is located on the left
hand rear corner of the appliance.
Use only new black iron or steel pipes, CSST, or copper
tubing if acceptable—check local codes. Note that
in USA, copper tubing must be internally tinned for
protection against sulfur compounds.
The burner module and gas train on this appliance
may be removed as a unit for servicing. The flex pipe
supplied with the unit provides a union for removal of
the module.
Unions in gas lines should be of ground joint type.
The gas supply line must be sized and installed to
provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum
demand of the appliance without undue loss of
pressure.
Sealant used must be resistant to the action of all gas
constituents including LP gas. Sealant should be applied
lightly to male threads to ensure excess sealant does
not enter gas lines.
Pressure test the supply line for leaks.
The appliance and its individual shut-offvalve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its equipment shut-offvalve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5
kPa).
Failure to either disconnect or isolate the appliance
during pressure testing may result in regulator or valve
damage and void the warranty. Consult your dealer in
case of damage.
Pressure Test Points
The minimum supply pressure is given in the section
Specifications of this manual—page 6.
All piping and connections must be tested for leaks after
installation or servicing. All leaks must be corrected
immediately.
When testing for leaks:
• Make sure that the appliance is turned off.
• Open the manual shut-offvalve.
• Test for leaks by applying a liquid detergent or soap
solution to all joints. Bubbles forming indicate a gas
leak.
Never use an open flame to check for leaks.
Correct any leak detected immediately.
The pressure test tapping locations are shown in the
figure below. An internal regulator within the valve
controls the burner manifold pressure.
The correct pressure range is shown in the table in
section Specifications of this manual on page 6. The
pressure check should be made with the burner alight
and at its highest setting. See Lighting Instructions
section for full operating details on page 36.
