GRILL COVER INSTALLATION  
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION  
A thermostat may be installed to regulate the 425TR. It is  
important to use a thermostat designed for millivolt operation  
Do not connect the heater to a thermostat serving any other  
appliance. Bedroom installation in Canada requires this heater to  
be connected to a thermostat.  
Top grill cover is shipped with the stove and is an optional use  
item. It may be used with rear or top venting. Primarily its  
purpose is to hide the interior of the top of the stove from being  
viewed through the top grill piece. Its use will also increase the  
efficiency of the blower, if a blower is installed on the stove.  
Connect the thermostat wires to the outside valve terminals  
labeled "TH" and "TPTH". Turn the manual switch on the control  
panel to "OFF".  
To prepare the part for use you will need tin snips, pliers and  
a hammer.  
1, For use with top venting: See Fig. 1 below. Use the tin  
snips to cut the straight edges.  
2. Gently bend the piece until the two attached sections of the  
circular area snap apart. Discard this piece.  
3. Bend the tabs up towards the black painted side.  
4. With the top grill lying face down, set the black painted side  
of grill cover onto the grill.  
5. Use the hammer to tap on the 4 speed nuts (also supplied  
with stove.)  
6. For use with rear venting: Follow steps 3 through 5, leaving  
the cover piece in tact.

GENERAL VENTING INSTRUCTIONS  
PLEASE NOTE: In order to comply with applicable  
codes and product warranties, only Simpson Dura-  
Vent venting components may be used. DO NOT  
USE FIELD-FABRICATEDVENTING COMPONENTS.  
The Dovre DV425TR is approved to be vented either  
horizontally, through the side wall, or vertically, through  
the roof. You may vent through a Class A or masonry  
chimney if a Simpson Dura-Vent adapter is used  
(for USA installations only). Only Simpson Dura-Vent  
components labeled and listed on pages 20-21  
The Dovre DV425TR is an engineered product that  
has been designed and tested. The warranty will be  
voided, and serious fire, health, or other safety hazards  
may result from any of the following actions: Installation  
of any damaged venting component, unauthorized  
modification of the venting system, installation of  
any component part not approved by Aladdin Hearth  
Products, or installation other than as instructed by  
these instructions. Consult your local building codes  
before beginning this installation.  
This appliance is a direct vent heater. All combustion  
air must come directly from the outside of the building.  
The vent pipe for this unit consists of an inner and an  
outer pipe. The inner pipe carries the stove exhaust  
out of the system, and the outer pipe brings fresh  
combustion air into the stove.  
WARNING:  
Always maintain the required  
clearances (air space) to nearby combustibles to  
avoid creating a fire hazard. Do not fill air space  
with insulation. Minimum clearance between vent  
pipes and combustible surfaces is 1” (25mm).  
Be sure to check the horizontal vent termination  
clearance requirements from decks, windows,  
soffits, gas regulators, air supply inlets and public  
walkways, as specified on pages 26-27 of these  
installation instructions, the vertical termination  
requirements on page 35, and local building  
codes.  
!
A wall thimble is optional when the venting  
passes through a wall.  
! A support box or firestop is required when the  
venting passes through a ceiling.  
Roof flashing and a storm collar are required when  
venting passes through the roof. Follow instructions  
provided with the venting for installation of these  
items.  
IMPORTANT: Read all these instructions carefully  
before starting the installation. Failure to follow  
instructions may create a fire or other safety  
hazard, and will void the warranty. Be sure to  
follow these installation instructions for venting  
and clearance to combustible requirements, which  
may vary from one installation to another. Do  
not extend the venting system in excess of  
the distance prescribed in these manufacturer’s  
installation instructions. This gas appliance must  
not be connected to a chimney flue serving a  
separate solid-fuel burning appliance.  
The gas heater and vent system must be  
vented directly to the outside of the building, and never  
be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel  
or gas-burning appliance.This direct vent gas fireplace  
must use its own separate vent system. Common vent  
systems are prohibited.

DV425TR DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER  
INSTALLATION METHODS & NOTES  
Four types of direct vent system installations are  
approved for use with the DV425TR.  
1. Horizontal Termination (Fig. 1, page 22)  
2. Vertical Termination (Fig. 2, page 23)  
3. Into a Class A Metal Chimney (Fig. 3, page 24)  
USA installations only  
determining the position of the stove, be sure to  
adhere to minimum clearance to combustibles to the  
appliance itself. (See page 8, Minimum Clearances to  
Combustibles.)  
3. When installing this appliance into an existing  
masonry chimney, it is important to carefully measure  
the length of flex needed to reach from the appliance  
outlet to the termination cap. If the flex length is too  
short, a flex coupler will be needed to attach an  
additional length of flex liner to make up the difference.  
If the flex length is too long, the liner could sag below  
the appliance outlet, which could result in an airflow  
restriction causing flow reversal or flame lift.  
4. Into a Masonry Chimney (Fig. 4, page 25) USA  
installations only  
Do not connect to a chimney serving a separate solid-  
fuel burning appliance.  
In each of these installation methods, it is very important  
to maintain a balance between the combustion air  
intake and the flue gas exhaust venting system.  
Note: Certain limitations as to vent and vertical  
termination configurations apply, and must be strictly  
adhered to.  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THE INSTALLER  
Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection when  
installing this stove. Exercise extreme caution when  
using ladders or on rooftops around power lines.  
Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and  
ceilings.  
When planning your installation, it is necessary to  
select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular  
requirements.  
1. For installations with any horizontal vent run or  
horizontal termination, refer to the Vent Graph on page  
27. This graph will show the relationship between  
vertical and horizontal side wall venting, and help you  
to determine the amount of vertical rise necessary  
for “vertical-to-horizontal” type installations. NOTE: Be  
sure to take into consideration the wall thickness when  
calculating your venting needs.  
!! IMPORTANT !!  
INSERT TOP GRILL ONTO STOVE  
TOP PRIORTO COMPLETING  
2. To determine the length of pipe required for vertical  
installations, measure the distance from the stove flue  
outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling thickness, the vertical  
rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient  
vent height above the roofline. Refer to the vertical  
vent termination tables on page 35 for this information.  
For two-story applications, fire stops are required at  
each floor level. If an offset is needed in the attic,  
additional pipe and elbows will be required. When

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION VENT GRAPH  
1. Measure the distance from the top of stove to the center of the 90° elbow. On the graph below, draw a horizontal line from that  
measurement on the vertical axis across until it intersects with the slanted line.  
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the bottom of the graph.  
3. The point at which this line meets the bottom line of the graph is the maximum length of the horizontal run.  
Example 1:  
Example 2:  
If the vertical dimension from the top of the stove to the center of the 90° elbow is 7’ (2.13m), the horizontal run to the  
outer wall flange must not exceed 9’ 9” (2.97m).  
If the vertical dimension from the top of the stove is 21’ (6.4m), the horizontal run to the outer wall flange must  
not exceed 7’ 3” (2.21m).  
4. Each 90° elbow is equivalent to 3' of vent pipe and each 45° elbow is equivalent to 1' of vent pipe, and must subtracted from vent  
pipe run. A single vertical to horizontal 90° elbow is already calculated into the allowable 15' run. Each additional 90°  
elbow reduces the maximum horizontal distance by 3'.  
Example:  
The use of [3] elbows would reduce the allowable horizontal run to 9' (3 - 1 = 2 elbows x 3' = 6'; 15' max. - 6' = 9' max.)  
Notes:  
The maximum horizontal vent run is 15’ (4.57m) when the vertical vent rise is 10’ (3.05m).  
The minimum horizontal vent run is 12” (305mm).  
Minimum wall thickness is 4” (102mm). Maximum wall thickness is 20” (508mm).  
Horizontal sections require a 1/4” (6mm) rise for every 12” (305mm) of horizontal travel.  
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6 5/8” (177mm); Inner Vent Diameter = 4” (101mm)  
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support every 3’ (914mm) , e.g. plumbing tape.  
EXCEPTION FOR REAR VENT KIT (Part #844-8920), HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION:  
The maximum horizontal vent run is 2' (61cm)  
The maximum horizontal vent run with a 45° elbow is 14" (35cm)  
No external minimum rise is required. The minimum horizontal vent run is 11-5/8" (29cm).  
For any vertical rise when rear venting, a minimum of 2' (61cm) vertical must be used prior to any horizontal run.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION, cont.  
Step 1.  
Determine the desired location of the stove. Check to ensure that wall studs or roof rafters are not  
in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the location of  
the stove.  
Step 2.  
Simpson Dura-Vent pipe is designed with special twist-lock connections. To connect the venting system  
to the stove flue outlet, a twist-lock adapter is built into the stove at the factory. Remember to include wall  
thickness in minimum clearances when figuring the measurements for your installation needs.  
Note: Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations, located on the female ends of pipes and fittings, are designed  
to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings by orienting the four pipe indentations so they  
match and slide into the four entry slots on the male ends, see Fig. 5 below. Push the pipe sections completely  
together, then twist-lock one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn, until the two sections are fully  
locked. The female locking lugs will not be visible from the outside, on the pipe or fittings. They may be located  
by examining the inside of the female ends.  
Female Locking Lugs  
FIG. 5  
Male Locking Lugs  
NOTES:  
Horizontal runs of vent must be supported every 3’ (914mm). Wall straps are available for this purpose.  
Horizontal sections require a 1/4" (6mm) rise for every 12" (305mm) of horizontal travel.  
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6 5/8" (177mm); Inner Vent Diameter = 4" (101mm)

Step 3.  
With the adapter and pipe attached to the stove, slide the stove into its correct location, maintaining  
minimum clearance to combustibles. Mark the wall for a 10” x 10” (254mm x 254mm) square hole. The center  
of the square hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe, as shown in Fig. 6. Cut and frame  
the hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of  
noncombustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7” (178mm) diameter hole is acceptable.  
Also, if you have installed the Hearth Legs, they will reduce the centerline clearance by 3"  
(75mm).

NOTE:  
(1) Installation requires a minimum of 1’ (305mm) horizontal run of vent with a ꢀ” (6mm) rise run towards the  
termination. Each 1’ (305mm) of horizontal venting must include a 1/4” rise. Never allow the vent to run  
downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a fire.  
(2) The location of the horizontal vent termination on an exterior wall must meet all local and national building  
codes, and must not be easily blocked or obstructed, see page 26.  
(3) For installations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of the building, Aladdin Snorkle Kit #844-8920, 14”  
(356mm) and 36” (914mm) tall snorkel terminations are available. Follow the same installation procedures  
as used for standard horizontal terminations. If the snorkel termination must be installed below grade  
(i.e. basement application), proper drainage must be provided to prevent water from entering the snorkel  
termination. Do not backfill around snorkel termination.

Position the horizontal vent termination in the  
center of the 10” (254mm) square hole, run a bead  
of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, so  
as to make a seal between it and the wall, attach  
termination cap to the exterior wall with the four wood

Slide the stove and vent assembly towards the wall, carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent cap  
assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extend into the vent cap a sufficient distance so as to result in  
a minimum pipe overlap of 1ꢀ” (32mm). Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap by  
attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from the vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the vent pipe.  
Use the two sheet metal screws provided to connect the strips to the pipe section. (Figure 9).

FIG. 10  
Step 1.  
Check the installation instructions for required  
1” clearances (air space) to combustibles when  
passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures,  
attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces.  
See page 36, Fig. 16. Do not pack air space with  
insulation. Check the instructions below for maximum  
vertical rise of the venting system, and any maximum  
horizontal offset limitations. All offsets must fall within  
the set parameters of the vent graph located on page  
27.  
35'  
MAXIMUM  
NOTE: Maximum vertical rise allowable is 35’  
(10.7m) (Figure 10).  
NOTE: Maximum number of 45° elbows permitted  
for a vertical installation is eight, provided their  
installation does not decrease maximum vertical rise  
(as specified by Vent Graph, on page 27).

configuration, the maximum allowable pipe length on the horizontal runs is 1’, the minimum allowable pipe  
length on vertical runs is 1’. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTION: This installation may not have two horizontal  
sections connected by 90° elbows.

Step 2.  
Set the gas stove in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position of the  
stove flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this  
point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot  
where the vent will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will obstruct  
the venting system.You may wish to relocate the stove, or to offset, as shown in Figure 11, to avoid cutting  
loadbearing members.  
Step 3.  
To install the round support box/wall thimble in a flat ceiling, cut a 10" (254mm) square hole in the  
ceiling, centered on the hole drilled in Step2. Frame the hole as shown in Figure 13.

Step 4.  
Assemble the desired lengths of GS pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the stove up through the  
round support box. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their fully twist-locked position. Be sure to  
seal the outer pipe with appropriate sealant (high temperature silicone).  
Step 5.  
Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drill hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be  
of sufficient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles, as specified. Continue to  
assemble lengths of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the ceiling support box up through the roof line.  
Galvanized pipe and elbows may be utilized in the attic, as well as above the roofline. The galvanized finish is  
desirable above the roofline, due to its higher corrosion resistance.  
NOTE:  
(1) If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions, it is important to support the vent pipe every  
3’ (91.4cm) to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available  
for this purpose (page 32, Figure 11).  
(2) Whenever possible, use 45° elbows, instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction to the  
flow of flue gases and intake air.  
Step 6.  
Slip the flashing over the pipe section(s) protruding through the roof. Secure the base of the flashing  
to the roof with roofing nails. Ensure the roofing material overlaps the top edge of the flashing as shown  
in Figure 14. Verify that the chimney is the required height above the roof. See Roof Pitch Table on page

Continue to assemble pipe sections until  
the height of the vent cap (H) (Figure 15) meets  
the minimum code requirements as outlined in  
the current CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Codes (in  
Canada), the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI  
Z223.1 (in USA), or local codes. Note that for steep  
roof pitches, the vent height must be increased.  
See Table 1 below. In high wind conditions, nearby  
trees adjoining rooflines, steep pitched roofs, and  
other similar factors can result in poor draft, or down  
drafting. In these cases increasing the vent height  
may solve this problem.

Note:  
Twist-lock the vent cap and seal.  
(1) For multi-story vertical installations, a ceiling firestop (SDV part #963) is required at the second floor, and  
any subsequent floors (Figure 16). The opening should be framed to 10” x 10” (254mm x 254mm) inside  
dimensions, in the same manner as shown in Figure 13.  
(2) Any occupied areas above the first floor, including closets and storage spaces, which the vertical  
vent passed through must be enclosed. The enclosure may be framed and sheetrocked with standard  
construction materials; however, refer to these installation instructions for the minimum allowable clearance  
between the outside of the vent pipe and the combustible surfaces of the enclosure. Do not fill any of the  
required air space with insulation.

Step 1.  
Before cutting any holes, assemble the desired sections of direct vent pipe to determine the center  
of the masonry penetration.  
Step 2.  
Once the center point of the penetration has been determined, cut a 6” (152mm) diameter hole in the  
masonry. If the hole is too large, the retro connector might not mount properly; if the hole is too small, the  
appliance might starve for intake air. If there is a frame wall in front of the masonry wall, cut and frame a  
10” (254mm) square opening in the wall (centered around the 6” [152mm] masonry opening). If there is sheet  
rock only (no studs) in front of the masonry the 10” (254mm) opening is still needed, but does not need to be  
framed. This allows the retro connector to mount directly on the masonry and provide the correct clearances

Step 3.  
Secure the flashing (SDV #705C) to the top of  
the masonry chimney using a bead of non-hardening  
sealant-adhesive. If the flashing is larger than the top  
of the chimney, cut and fold flashing as needed to fit  
chimney (Figure 23).  
Step 4.  
Fig. 23  
To determine the length of flex needed,  
measure from 3” (76mm) above the top of the flashing  
down to the level of the opening. Add the distance  
from the center of the chimney out through the  
wall. Cut a piece of 4” (102mm) flex to this  
length (extended to its nominal length). Be sure to  
leave 2”-3” (51mm-76mm) of flex above the existing  
chimney to allow for connection to the termination kit.  
SEALANT-ADHESIVE  
Step 5.  
Connect the flex liner to the top adapter using three (3) sheet metal screws (see Figure 19, page 44).  
Step 6.  
Feed the flex liner through the flashing into the chimney. Carefully feed the flex liner down the chimney  
to the bottom and out the opening in the masonry wall, forming an angle to line up the flex liner with the  
vent opening on the appliance.  
WARNING: Do not let the flex liner sag below the level at which it will connect to the appliance or  
connector.This could allow hot gas to become trapped and potentially become a fire hazard.The flex  
liner path should always be sloped up toward the termination cap.

GAS LINE REQUIREMENTS  
The gas line must be installed in accordance  
with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI 223.1  
and the requirements listed below.  
The stove and gas control valve must be  
disconnected from the gas supply piping during any  
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in  
excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures under 1/2 psig,  
isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual  
shut-off valve.  
monitoring for the odor of either natural gas, which  
will rise, or propane, which will settle near the  
floor. As soon as you smell the gas, discontinue  
purging the line. Ensure that the room has plenty  
of ventilation and that no sparks or open flames  
are near the end of the gas line during the purging  
process. Do not try to ignite the stove until any and  
all gas accumulation has been cleared from the room.  
The appliance must be isolated from the gas  
supply piping system by closing its equipment shutoff  
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply  
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than  
1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).  
CAUTION: In some areas, gas line pressure  
may be more than 1/2 PSIG (14”WC). If  
you believe that this is the case in your  
locality, contact your gas supplier or local  
utility company. Line pressure greater than  
1/2 PSIG will damage the stove valve. You  
must install a regulator upstream from the  
stove if line pressure is greater than 1/2  
PSIG.  
Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control  
valve prior to and after starting the stove.  
Fuel  
This unit is manufactured for use with natural  
gas. To convert to LP gas, Part #844-9010 LP  
Conversion Kit, is required and available through your  
dealer  
Gas Line Connection  
Before making the gas connection, ensure  
that the stove you are installing is designed for the  
type of gas being supplied. This information can be  
found on the Ratings Label on the back of stove. If  
the stove has been converted to propane (LP), the  
valve cover will have a label stating that the unit has  
been converted to propane.  
Connect the gas line at the 3/8” pipe  
connector on the valve at the back of stove. See  
illustration on the next page. We recommend  
connecting the stove with an approved flex gas line.  
If flex gas lines are not approved in your area, you  
cannect a hard pipe to the gas hookup.  
You must supply a manual shutoff valve in a  
visible location within 3’ (914mm) of the stove.  
After running new gas line, or if a gas line has  
been disconnected, purging of the gas line may be  
necessary. To purge gas line, open the inlet pressure  
tap and allow gas to flow through while carefully

MAIN BURNER.....................This control is used to turn the fireplace on and off.  
PILOT IGNITOR ...................The pilot ignitor is used only to start the pilot. When pressed, it sends an  
electrical charge to the pilot assembly. This creates a blue spark directly next to  
the pilot, igniting the pilot flame.  
VALVE CONTROL ................This knob is used to control gas to the stove and for starting the pilot. There  
are three positions, ON, OFF, & PILOT. The pointer on the panel indicates the  
position of the knob.  
COMFORT CONTROL..........This knob controls the flame height from low (“LO”) to high (“HI”).  
NOTE: If using a remote control wall switch, or thermostat, the On/Off Switch must be left “OFF”. Turning the  
On/Off Switch “ON” will keep the stove on continually.  
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS  
Blower.....................If the optional blower kit is installed, the160 cfm blower will circulate heated air into  
the living area. It produces a whirring sound which increases in volume as the speed  
is increased.  
Pilot Flame .............The pilot flame remains on constantly and makes a “whisper” sound.  
Gas control valve...As the valve opens and shuts down it will click.  
Burner pan .............The burner pan is located beneath the logs. It distributes the gas producing a clean,  
efficient and aesthetic burn. As the main burner gets up to temperature a creaking sound  
will be heard. This is the expansion of the metal. The sound will cease once the fireplace  
is up to temperature but may return upon cool down.

YEARLY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES  
WARNING! Failure to inspect and maintain the stove may lead to improper combustion and a  
potentially dangerous situation. The following procedures are recommended to be completed by a  
qualified technician once per year, preferably prior to the burning season.  
1.  
2.  
3.  
Check the pilot flame. It should engulf approximately 3/8” of the top of the millivolt generator and engulf  
the top of the thermocouple (see illustration on page 52).  
Shut off gas to the stove by turning the valve control knob to “OFF” and turning off the manual shutoff  
valve. Allow the stove to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the door.  
Remove the logset (NOTE: the logs are fragile. If any log is cracked or deteriorated, replace it when  
reinstalling. Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal.  
If excessive sooting is found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.  
4.  
Clean the burner pan (especially in the burner holes and slots) and inspect the following:  
a.  
b.  
c.  
Check for burner pan holes that are cracked, severely warped, plugged or corroded.  
Make sure the burner pan assembly fits flat against the floor of the firebox.  
Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage. If any  
problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.  
5.  
Reinstall the logset. Inspect the door glass, if the door glass is damaged, contact your dealer for a  
replacement. Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and  
forms an airtight seal. If it does not, realign or replace the gasket to ensure an airtight seal. Reinstall  
door.  
6.  
7.  
Inspect the area behind the side panels. Check the gas control valve and all of the gas lines. If any  
damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.  
Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination, outside the house ensuring that the flow  
of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed. Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration  
is found near the vent termination.  
8.  
Turn on gas and follow Lighting Instructions. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the  
top of the firebox. If the pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service.  
Monitor the blower operation.
