A non-combustible Hearth
Insulation Board is required
(supplied) to be installed
between any non-combustible
hearth covering and any
combustible ooring beneath.
The design of the unit is such
that the replace must be
raised by the same distance as
any additional hearth covering
or riser that are added in front
of the replace.
Figure 14 shows a raised
hearth made of a wooden
construction hearth riser (B),
covered with the insulation
board provided and then
covered with non-combustible
slate (A). The thickness of
the riser (B) is 4” (102mm).
The thickness of the slate (A)
is 2” (52mm). A+B=C which
is 6” (152mm). In summary,
the replace must be raised
by the same thickness of any
material added in front of the
replace, with exception of the
” (13mm) Hearth Insulation
Board that was provided with
the unit.
If the raised hearth is deeper
or wider than the Insulation
Board provided with the unit,
additional non-combustible
materials such as Backer Board
(cement board) can be used to
build up to the same thickness
as the Insulation Board.
All header, ceiling or shelf
dimensions are measured from
the oor that the replace sits
on. Failure to maintain minimum
installation dimensions can
lead to elevated temperatures,
re or personal injury.

There are a number of optional
fronts available for use with
the DV48. These fronts lift
on and off of the replace,
providing access to the replace
for regular maintenance and
service.
You have 3 possible scenarios
when installing facing to your
replace installation. Care
must be taken to ensure proper
clearances are maintained.
Clearances are required
between optional fronts and
any stone work applied to your
replace installation. Failure
to maintain this clearance will
lead to elevated operating
temperatures and possible
discoloration of materials and
or fronts.

Electrical Box
(Supplied)
Figure 22. Receiver Installation.
The Receiver is the heart of the remote control system. You need to access this receiver after installation to change
the batteries (for operation during a power failure), to program a new remote / receiver combination and to operate
a manual override should you lose your remote control or the batteries in the remote control lose their power.
The Receiver is connected to the replace with a wire harness that has a maximum length of 8 ft (2.4m). The
connection point on the replace is on the right side of the unit, where the gas valve and electronic ignition module
is located. Because of the 8 ft (2.4m) limitation in the wiring harness, the receiver needs to be mounted to the
right side of the replace. An electrical box is provided for the receiver. Mount this electrical box as you would any
electrical outlet or switch box. Thread the cable and connector through the back of the electrical box and connect it
to the rear of the receiver. Secure the receiver into the electrical box. Once the facing of the replace installation is
complete, install the receiver cover, supplied with the unit as shown. The receiver cover also functions as a switch
plate and allows for access to the program button, critical for remote control operation.
Review the section in this manual regarding the remote control operations for more information on the functions
of the receiver.
ALLOWABLE VENT CONFIGURATIONS:
The vent chart, in Figure 23, illustrates the vent congurations that have been tested and approved for use with
this appliance. 45˚ elbows are acceptable for this installation and may be used instead of 90˚ elbows. You may use
two (2) 45˚ elbows for every 90˚ elbow shown in this chart.
This appliance is also approved for use with 5” x 8” ex venting. For durability, safety and resistance to corrosion,
we recommend you use a ex venting made from stainless steel. Only use exible venting that is approved for
replace applications. Flex vent runs must comply with the same limitations as the rigid vent chart shown here.
Flexible vent runs greater than 8’ total are not recommended. Mixed vent runs of both Flexible and rigid venting are
allowed providing all the proper connectors are utilized. See your vent providers’ catalogue for ex to rigid or rigid
to ex adaptor numbers.
The restrictor settings shown in Figure 23, are recommended. Installation factors such as altitude, prevailing
weather conditions such as temperature or wind, or the number of elbows used may affect your nal restrictor
settings. Insufcient restriction may cause pilot outages or reduced efciencies. Too much restriction may lead to
elevated operating temperatures, poor ame appearances, sooting or carbon deposits building up on burner effects
or window glass.

INSTALLATION OF FLUE RESTRICTOR:
Flue Restrictors are necessary to keep
the replace running at its intended
efciency. They are also required to
counteract the effect that taller vertical
vent runs may have on the appliance.
The additional venting action that
tall vertical vent systems may have
can result in poor pilot and/or burner
operations and possibly nuisance shut
downs. Generally, the vent restriction
may be less than what is shown in the
vent chart, but not greater. The vent
restrictor size is shown in percentages,
meaning that a 40% restrictor restricts
the vent 40% from its fully un-restricted
vent size.
1) Remove the Glass Door; refer to
DOOR REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION.
2) Remove the Burner and/or
Log Set; refer to BURNER REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION.
3) Remove the rebox liners; refer to FIREBOX LINER INSTALLATION.
4) Refer to the Vent Chart (Figure 23) for selection of the appropriate
Restrictor.
5) Using the two (2) ” T-20 screws provided with the restrictor, fasten
the Restrictor into the Flue Outlet as shown in Figures 25 & 26. Make
sure the diagonal holes line up with the diagonal holes located in the
Flue Outlet Box Use a powered driver to drive the screw in. Be careful
not to over-torque the screw and strip the threads.
6) Re-install the Light Covers, Firebox Liners, Burners and log sets and
the Glass Door.
7) Run the unit for hour to check for proper operations and ame
appearance.
