COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks
around your appliance with noncombustible
material and wherever cold air could enter
the room. It is especially important to insulate
outside chase cavity between studs and under
floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above
ground level. Gas line holes and other open-
ings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced
fiberglass insulation.
Offset Venting
(one end flush
with wall)

Venting
If the fireplace is being installed on a cement
slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or
otherraisedplatformcanbeplacedunderneath
to prevent cold transfer to the fireplace and into
the room. It also helps to sheetrock inside
surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness
and caulk firestops.

Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE
Proper Sizing of Gas Line
Notes:
• All appliances are factory-equipped with a
flexiblegaslineconnectorand1/2inchshutoff
valve (see Figure 47 on Page 27).
Properly size and route the gas supply line
from the supply regulator to the area where
the appliance is to be installed per require-
ments outlined in the National Fuel Gas Code,
NFPA 54 - latest edition (USA) or B149 - latest
edition (Canada).
Route a gas line along the inside of the right
side framing as shown in Figure 14. Gas
lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. All appliances are
factory-equipped with a flexible gas line con-
nector and 1/2 inch shutoff valve (see Step
6 on Page 27).
• See Massachusetts Requirements on Page
4 for additional requirements for installations
in the state of Massachusetts in the USA.
• The gas supply line should Not be connected
to the appliance until Step 6 (Page 27).
• Apipejointcompoundratedforgasshouldbe
used on the threaded joints. Ensure propane
resistant compounds are used in propane
applications. Be very careful that the pipe
compound does not get inside the pipe.
• It is recommended to install a sediment trap
in the supply line as close as possible to the
appliance (see Figure 47). Appliances using
Propane should have a sediment trap at the
base of the tank.
Never use galvanized or plastic pipe. Refer
to Table 7 for proper sizing of the gas sup-
ply line, if black iron pipe is being used. Gas
lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. We recommend
that a qualified individual such as a plumber
or gas fitter be hired to correctly size and route
the gas supply line to the appliance. Installing
a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the
applianceinvolvesnumerousconsiderationsof
materials,protection,sizing,locations,controls,
pressure,sediment,andmore.Certainlynoone
unfamiliarandunqualifiedshouldattemptsizing
or installing gas piping.

(143 mm)
IMPORTANT: If propane is used, be aware that
if tank size is too small (i.e. under 100-lbs, if
this is the only gas appliance in the dwelling.
Ref. NPFA 58), there may be loss of pressure,
resulting in insufficient fuel delivery (which
can result in sooting, severe delayed ignition
or other malfunctions). Any damage resulting
from an improper installation, such as this, is
not covered under the limited warranty.

These fireplaces must be vented directly to the outside.
The vent system may not service multiple appliances, and must never
be connected to a flue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The vent
pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed wall (such as a chase). There
is no requirement for inspection openings in the enclosing wall at any of
the joints in the vent pipe.
WARNING
The VENT SEAL CAP must remain securely installed
on unused vent collar. Failure to do so could result in
leakage of flue products into living space.

Installation of Vent Restrictor
Preparing the Appliance Vent Collar
Each of the appliances' two vent collars are sealed with a seal cap which
must be removed from the vent collar being used. Refer to Figure 15
for top vent installations and Figure 16 for side vent installations and
the following steps to prepare the appropriate collar for use.
(Top Vent Installations with Vertical Terminations Only)
A vent restrictor (provided) may be needed with this appliance. If needed,
install the vent restrictor in the appliance top flue outlet as shown in
Figure 17 when vertically terminating the vent system above the roof. It
may be installed either from inside or outside the appliance, in the inner
fireplace collar. It is press-fitted in place.
From the vent collar being used, remove the two screws securing the
vent seal cap. Twist the cap counterclockwise. Pull it away from the
appliance and discard, along with the piece of insulation.
Note: The restrictor is included within the firebox.

Vertical (offset) Installation
D. Install firestop / spacer at ceiling - When
using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop /
spacer at ceiling joists; when using Secure
Flex, use SF4.5VF firestop / spacer. If there is
living space above the ceiling level, the firestop
/ spacer must be installed on the bottom side
of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling,
the firestop / spacer must be installed on the
top side of the joist.
B. Attach vent components to appliance - Se-
cure Vent SV4.5 direct-vent system compo-
nents are unitized concentric pipe components
featuring positive twist lock connections (see
Figure 20).
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
number of vent sections and elbows required.
Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables on
Pages 17 and 18 to select the type of vertical
installation desired. Refer to the Vent Section
LengthChartsonPage14 foranaidinselecting
ventlengthcombinations. Elbowsareavailable
in 45° and 90° configurations. Refer to Figure
23 on Page 16 for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90
elbow dimensional specifications.
All of the appliances covered in this document
are fitted with collars having locking inclined
channels. The dimpled end of the vent com-
ponents fit over the appliance collar to create
the positive twist lock connection.
Routetheventsectionsthroughtheframedopen-
ing and secure the firestop / spacer with 8d nails
or other appropriate fasteners at each corner.
Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance
tocombustibles,framingmembers,andatticor
ceiling insulation when running vertical chim-
ney sections. Attic insulation shield (H3907)
may be used to obtain the required clearances
indicated here. See installation accessories o
n Pages 33 and 34. The gap between the vent
pipe and a vertical firestop can be sealed with
non-combustible caulking.
Where required, a telescopic vent section
(SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer
with an option in installing in tight and confined
spaces or where the vent run made up of fixed
length pieces develops a joint in a undesirable
location, or will not build up to the required
length. The SV4.5LA Telescopic Vent Section
has an effective length of from 1-1/2" (38 mm)
to 7-1/2" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted with
a locking inclined channel end (identical to a
normalventsectioncomponent)andaplainend
with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over the
locking channel end of a standard SV4.5 vent
component the required distance and secure
with three screws.
Align the dimple (four places) of the
upper vent section with the opening
of the locking incline channel on the
lower vent section or appliance col-
lar. Twist vent component clockwise
to engage and seal until arrow and
dimple align.

Supporttheverticalportionoftheventingsystem
every 8 feet (2.4 m) above the fireplace vent
outlet. One method of support is by utilizing
field provided support straps (conventional
plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to
the framing members with nails or screws.
Loop the tape around the vent, securing the
ends of the tape to the framing. If desired,
sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2" length may be
used to secure the support straps to the vent
pipe. See Figure 21.
Figure 20
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance
to combustible materials for all vertical ele-
ments.Clearancesforallhorizontalelements
are 3" (76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides
and 1" (25 mm) on the bottom.
To attach a vent component to the appliance
collar, align the dimpled end over the collar,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four
locking dimples are aligned with the inlet of
the four inclined channels on the collar (refer to
Figure 20). Push the vent component against
the collar until it fully engages, then twist the
component clockwise, running the dimples
down and along the incline channels until they
seat at the end of the channels. The unitized
design of the Secure Vent™ components will
engage and seal both the inner and outer pipe
without the need for sealant or screws. If
desired a #6 x 1/2" screw may be used at the
joint, butitnotrequiredasthepipewillsecurely
lock when twisted.
A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb line
from the ceiling above the appliance to locate
center of the vertical run. Cut and/or frame an
opening, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267 mm x 267
mm)insidedimensions, aboutthiscentermark
(Figure 19).

the top of the flashing. Tighten the adjusting
screw. Apply non-combustible caulking or
mastic around the circumference of the joint
to provide a water tight seal.
If the vent system extends more than 5 feet
(1.5 m)above the roof flashing, stabilizers may
be necessary. Additional screws may be used
at section joints for added stability. Guide wires
may be attached to the joint for additional sup-
port on multiple joint configurations.

B. Frame exterior wall opening -
Locate the center of the vent outlet on the ex-
terior wall according to the dimensions shown
in Figures 12 and 13 on Pages 10 and 11. Cut
and/or frame an opening, 10-1/2" x 12-1/8"
(267 mm x 308 mm) inside dimensions, about
this center.

H. Change vent direction - At transition from
or to a horizontal / inclined run, install the
SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same
manner as the straight vent sections. The
elbows feature a twist section to allow them to
be routed about the center axis of their initial
collar section to align with the required direc-
tion of the next vent run element. Twist elbow
sections in a clockwise direction only so as
to avoid the possibility of unlocking any of
the previously connected vent sections (see
Figure 20 on Page 15).
D. Attach vent components to appliance - To
attachaventcomponenttotheappliancecollar,
align the dimpled end over the collar, adjust-
ing the radial alignment until the four locking
dimples are aligned with the inlets of the four
incline channels on the collar (refer to Figure
20 on Page 15).
Bothofthesehorizontalventsystemsterminate

Figure 6 on Page 7 for location guidelines.
Secure Vent SV4.5 direct-vent system compo-
nents are unitized concentric pipe components
featuring positive twist lock connection, (refer
to Figure 20 on Page 15). All of the appli-
ances covered in this document are fitted with
collars having locking inclined channels. The
dimpled end of the vent components fit over
the appliance collar to create the positive twist
lock connection.

procedure. Sealant and securing screws are
not required.
I.Continueinstallationofhorizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straightventsectionsinhorizontal/inclinedrun
as described in Step E. Install support straps
every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal / inclined
vent runs using conventional plumber’s tape.
See Figure 32. It is very important that the
horizontal / inclined run be maintained in a
straight (no dips) and recommended to be in
a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away
from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20 mm
per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot
run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the
way down to at or near level.
A. Plan the vent run -
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
types and quantities of sections required
4-1/2"(114mm),10-1/2"(267mm),22-1/2"(572
mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm)
net section lengths are available. It is recom-
mended that you plan the vent lengths so that
a section joint does not occur within the space
definedbyceilingjoists,roofraftersorwallstuds.
MakeallowancesforelbowsasindicatedinFigure
23 on Page 16.
Note: An elbow may also be attached to the
appliance collar. Attach in the same manner
as you would a vent section.
E. Attach vent components to each other
- Other vent sections may be added to the
previouslyinstalledsectioninaccordancewith
the requirements of the vent tables.
It is important to maintain the required clear-
ancestocombustibles:1"(25mm)atallsides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.
To add another vent component to a length
of vent run, align the dimpled end of the
component over the inclined channel end of
the previously installed section, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples
are aligned with the inlets of the four incline
channels of the previous section.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustibles on the vertical sections. Clear-
ances for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76 mm)
on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides, and 1" (25 mm)
at the bottom.
Use a carpenter’s level to measure from a
constant surface and adjust the support straps
as necessary.

J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not
previously measured, locate the center of the
vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening
as described in Step B. Assemble the vent
system to point where the terminus of the last
sectionislocatedrelativetotheexteriorsurface
to which the termination is to be attached as
shown in Figure 34.
To help minimize water infiltration it is
recommended that the Firestop/Spacer

IMPORTANT: The vent termination is hot
whileinoperationandforaperiodoftime
following the use of the fireplace. Young
children should be carefully supervised
when they are in the same area as a hot
termination. To prevent contact with hot
surfaces, we recommend the use of a
Termination Guard. See Page 33. This
can be purchased at your local dealer.
Horizontal terminations have been designed to perform in a wide range of weather condi-
tions. Our terminations meet or exceed industry standards.
When selecting the locations of your horizontal terminations, do not place the termina-
tion where water from eaves and adjoining rooflines may create a heavy flow of cascad-
ing water onto the termination cap. If the cap must be placed where the possibility of
cascading water exists, it is the responsibility of the builder to direct the water away
from the termination cap by using gutters or other means.
Take care to carefully follow the installation instructions for the termination, including
the use of silicone caulking where required.

Step 9. INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
OF GLASS DOOR
Step 10. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
Flame Appearance and sooting
Proper flame appearance is a flame which is
blue at the base and becomes yellowish-orange
in the body of the flame.
1. Remove the top louver assembly by lifting it
up and pulling it out.
2. Remove the control compartment access
door (see removal instructions on Page 27
- Removing Control Compartment Door).
3. Locate the two (2) latches at the top of the
control compartment. To disengage the two
latches from the bottom vee-flange of the
glassenclosurepanel, reachforthehandles
located towards the back of the latches and
pull the handles down toward the front of
the appliance.
WARNING
• Donotattempttosubstitutethe
materialsusedonthesedoors,
or replace cracked or broken
glass.
When the appliance is first lit, the entire flame
may be blue and will gradually turn yellowish-
orange during the first 15 minutes of operation.
After 15 minutes of operation, if the flame is
blue, or if the flame is orange with evidence of
sooting (black tip), the air shutter opening may
need to be adjusted.
• Handlethisglasswithextreme

• The glass door(s) of this appli-
ance must only be replaced as
a complete unit as provided
by the manufacturer. Do not
attempt to replace broken,

rately.
4. Swing the bottom of the door out and raise
it slightly to lift the top flange of the door
frame away from the appliance.
If the air shutter openings are closed too far,
sooting may develop. Sooting is indicated by
black puffs developing at the tips of very long
orangeflames. Sootingresultsinblackdeposits

3. Swing the glass enclosure panel down and
back. Ensure the gasket seats evenly as the
panel draws shut. Engage the Vee-flange at
the bottom of the panel with the latches and
close the latches to secure the panel.
4. Reinstall top louver assembly and control
compartment door see installation instruc-
tions on Page 27, Reinstalling Control
Compartment Door).
Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion
in the flames and lack of combustion air enter-
ing the air shutter opening. To achieve a warm
yellowish-orange flame with an orange body
that does not soot, the shutter opening must be
adjusted between these two extremes.
• Do not attempt to touch the
frontenclosureglasswithyour
hands while the fireplace is in
use.
Air Shutter Adjustment Guidelines
• If there is smoke or soot present, first check
the log set positioning to ensure that the
flames are not impinging on any of the logs.
If the log set is properly positioned and a
sooting condition still exists, then the air
shutter opening should be increased.
WARNING
Do not operate appliance with
theglassfrontremoved,cracked
or broken.
• Themoreoffsetsintheventsystem,thelarger

• An appliance operated with the air shutter
opened too far, may have flames that appear
blue and transparent. These weak, blue and
