It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine. It is
not unusual for your gas fireplace to give off some odor
the first time it is burned. This is due to the manufactur-
ing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated
-open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at
least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the op-
tional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch in
the “OFF” position during this time.
8. Keep the area around your fireplace clear of combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapor and liquids.
This fireplace should not be used as a drying rack for cloth-
ing, nor should Christmas stocking or decorations be hung
in the area of it.
9. Under no circumstances should any solid fuels (wood,
coal, paper or cardboard etc.) be used in this fireplace.
10. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be
obstructed in any way.
11. When fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or
any combustible material other than wood, this fireplace
must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the fireplace.
12. This fireplace requires adequate ventilation and combustion
air to operate properly.
13. This fireplace must not be connected to a chimney flue
serving a separate solid fuel burning fireplace.
14. When the fireplace is not in use it is recommended that the
gas valve be left in the OFF position.

When using CFM Corporation twist-lock pipe, it is not
necessary to use silicone to seal the twist-lock joints.
The only areas that need silicone are the collars on the
fireplace, the telescoping pipe (if used) and the hori-
zontal termination connection (when necessary). The
female (flared) end secures to the fireplace first with the
male end away from the fireplace.

requirements for snorkels.
Rear Wall Vent Applications
When installed as a rear vent unit this appliance may be
vented directly to a termination located on the rear wall
behind the appliance.
1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal
vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this
dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph (Fig. 18),
locate the point intersecting with the slanted graph
line.
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical
line to the bottom of the graph.
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the
fireplace in accordance with same.
• Only CFM Corporation venting components are ap-
proved to be used in these applications (See ‘Venting
Components’ listed for different installation require-
ments).
• The maximum horizontal distance between the rear
of the appliance (or end of the transition elbow in a
corner application) and the outside face of the rear
wall is 20” (508mm). (Fig. 19, 20 )
EXAMPLE A:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 11
feet (3352 mm) the horizontal run to the face of the
outer wall must not exceed 14’ (4267 mm).
• Only one 45° elbow is allowed in these installations.
• Minimum clearances between vent pipe and com-
bustible materials are as follows:
EXAMPLE B:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 7’
(2133mm), the horizontal run to the face of the outer
wall must not exceed 8¹⁄₂’ (2590 mm).

Fig. 22 Adjustable zero clearance sleeve.
Step 4
Combustible Walls: Cut a 10³⁄₈”H x 9³⁄₈” W (265 mm
x 240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as
shown. (Fig. 21)
Install the 4” (102 mm) vent to the appliance collar and
secure with three (3) sheet metal screws. Install the 7”
(175 mm) vent pipe to the appliance collar and secure
with three (3) sheet metal screws. It is not necessary to
seal this connection. If a 45° elbow is being used attach
the elbow to the appliance in the same manner then at-
tach the venting to the elbow.
Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening should be 7¹⁄₂”
(191 mm) diameter.
Zero clearance sleeve is only required for
combustible walls.
It is critical that there is no downward
slope away from the appliance when con-
necting the vent or elbow.
Step 2
Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve
parts to proper length (Maximum 12” / 305mm). As-
semble sleeve to its maximum opening (10³⁄₈” x 9³₈”)
and attach to firestop assembly. (Fig. 22)
Step 5
Guide the venting through the vent hole as you place
the appliance in its installed position. Guide the 4”
(102 mm) and 7” (175 mm) collar of the vent termina-
tion into the outer ends of the venting. Do not force
the termination. If the vent pipes do not align with the
termination, remove and realign the venting at the appli-
ance flue collars. (Fig. 23) Attach the termination to the
wall as outlined in the instruction sheet supplied with
the termination.
Step 3
Measure the horizontal length requirement for the vent-
ing including a 2” (51 mm) overlap, i.e. from the elbow
to the outside wall face plus 2” (51 mm). (Fig. 20)

Flex Vent Pipe
The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between ver-
tical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to deter-
mine the various dimensions allowable.
Follow Steps 1 and 2 on Page 14.
Step 3
Minimum clearance between vent pipes and com-
bustible materials is 1” (25 mm) on top, bottom and
sides unless otherwise noted.
Install the 4” (102 mm) flex vent pipe to the appliance
collars described in “General Information Assembling
Vent Pipes”, Page 12. If the installation requires a 45°
angle, grasp the vent pipe close to the appliance collar
and bend to 45°. DO NOT exceed 45°. (Fig. 24)
When vent termination exits through foundations less
than 20” (508mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe
must flush up with the siding.
It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that mini-
mizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.
Termination
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent
pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the top of
the Transition Elbow) to the face of the outer wall.
Flex Section
Appliance Collars
Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this
portion of the vent assembly.
When installing the appliance as a rear
vent unit, the 90° or 45° Transition Elbow
attached directly to the rear of the unit is
NOT INCLUDED in the following criteria
and calculations, and unless specifically
mentioned should be ignored when calcu-
lating venting layouts.
• The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall
installation is three (3). (Fig. 26)
FP1473
Fig. 24 Grasp the vent pipe close to the collar and bend to
45° angle. Do not exceed 45°.
• If a 90° elbow is fitted directly on top of the fireplace
flange the maximum horizontal vent run before the
termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914mm). (Fig.
27)
Install the 7” vent pipe in the same manner as Step 2.
NOTE: There must be a 1” (25 mm) rise in 24”
(610 mm) length of flex vent.
Step 4
Assemble the flex vent to the collars on the termination
as you did on the appliance.

from crimped end. Guide the vent terminations 4” and
7” collars into their respective vent pipes. Double check
that the vent pipes overlap the collars by 2” (51 mm).
Secure the termination to the wall with screws provided
and caulk around the wall plate to weatherproof. As an
alternative to screwing the termination directly to the
wall, you may also use expanding plugs or an approved
exterior construction adhesive. You may also attach the
termination with screws through the inner body into the
4” vent pipe, however for this method, you must extend
the 4” pipe approximately 6” (152 mm) beyond the outer
face of the wall.
Install the 4” (102 mm) flex vent pipe to the appliance

Do not back fill around snorkel.
Below Grade Installation
A clearance of at least 4” must be main-
tained between the snorkel and the soil.
When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal
clearances of 12” (305 mm) above grade level, a snorkel
kit is recommended. It allows installation depth down
to 7” (178 mm) below grade level. The 7” (178 mm) is
measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it
penetrates through the wall.
If the foundation is recessed, use recess brackets (not
supplied) for securing lower portion of the snorkel. Fas-
ten brackets to wall first, then secure to snorkel with self
drilling #8 x 1/2 sheet metal screws. It will be necessary
to extend vent pipes out as far as the protruding wall
face. (Fig. 38)
Ensure the sidewall venting clearances are ob-
served. If venting system is installed below ground,
we recommend a window well with adequate and
proper drainage to be installed around the termina-
tion area.
If installing a snorkel, a minimum 24” (610 mm) vertical
rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the
24” vertical pipe is 36” (914 mm). This measurement
is taken from the collar of the fireplace (or transition
elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. See the Sidewall
Venting Graph for extended horizontal run if the vertical
exceeds 24” (610 mm).

Troubleshooting the Gas Control System
SIT NOVA 820 MILLIVOLT VALVE
Note: Before trouble shooting the gas control system, be sure external gas shut off is in the “On” position.
WARNING: BEFORE DOING ANY GAS CONTROL SERVICE WORK, REMOVE GLASS FRONT.
SYMPTOM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1.Spark ignitor will not light
A. Defective or misaligned
electrode at pilot.
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off
pilot and push the red button again. If pilot will not
light - check gap at electrode and pilot-should be
1/8” to have a strong spark.
B. Defective ignitor (Push Button)
Push Piezo Ignitor Button. Check for spark at
electrode and pilot. If no spark to pilot, and elec
trode wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.
2. Pilot will not stay lit after
carefully following lighting
instructions.
A. Defective pilot generator
(thermocouple), remote wall
switch.
Check pilot flame. Must impinge on thermo
couple/thermopile. Note: this pilot burner assem
bly utilizes both-a thermocouple and a thermopile.
The thermocouple operates the main valve
operation (On and Off). Clean and or adjust pilot for
maximum flame impingement on thermopile and
thermocouple.
B. Defective automatic valve
Turn valve knob to “Pilot”. Maintain flow to pilot;
milivolt meter should read greater than 10 mV. If
the reading is okay and the pilot does not stay on,
replace the gas valve. Note: An interrupter block
(not supplied) must be used to conduct this test.
3. Pilot burning, no gas to
main burner
A. Wall switch or wires defective
Check wall switch and wires for proper connec
tions. Jumper wire accross terminals at wall
switch, if burner comes on, replace defective wall
switch. If okay, jumper wires across wall switch
wires at valve, if burner comes on, wires are faulty
or connections are bad.
B. Thermopile may not be
generating sufficient
millivoltage.
1. Be sure wire connections from thermopile at
gas valve terminals are tight and thermopile is
fully inserted into pilot bracket.
2. One of the wall switch wires may be grounded.
Remove wall switch wires from valve terminals if
pilot now stays lit, trace wall switch wiring for
ground. May be grounded to fireplace or gas
supply.
3. Check thermopile with millivolt meter. Take
reading at thermopile terminals of gas valve.
Should read 250-300 millivolts (minimum 150)
while holding valve knob depressed in pilot
position and wall switch “Off”. Replace faulty
thermopile if reading is below specified minimum.
C. Plugged burner orifice.
Check burner orifices for debris and remove.
D. Defective automatic valve
operator.
Turn valve knob to “On”, place wall switch to “On”
millivolt meter should read greater than 100 mV. If
the reading is okay and the burner does not come
on, replace the gas valve.
4. Frequent pilot outage
problem.
A. Pilot flame may be too low
or blowing (high) causing the
pilot safety to drop out.
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame
impingement on thermopile and thermocouple.
B. Possible blockage of the vent
terminal.
Check the vent terminal for blockage (recycling the
flue gases)
