OPERATION
LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Determine the safest and most efficient location for your cast iron
stove. Make sure that rafters and wall studs are not in the way of the
venting system. Choose a location where the heat output is not
affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows, or doors. Figure
2showssomecommonlocations.Readallventinginformationinthis
manual. Be aware of all restrictions and precautions before deciding
the exact location for your stove.
This cast iron stove with burner system is clean burning and vents
easily through outside walls or vertically using outside air for
combustion. Heat is generated by both realistic flames and glowing
embers. When used without the blower accessory, the stove with
burner system requires no electricity making it ideal for emergency
backup heat.
When deciding the location of your stove, follow these rules:
PIEZO IGNITOR
1. Do not connect this stove and burner system to a chimney flue
serving a separate solid-fuel burning fireplace or appliance.
This burner system has a piezo ignitor. This system requires no
matches, batteries, or other sources to light burner system.
2. Due to high temperatures, do not locate this stove in high traf-
fic areas or near furniture or draperies.

VENTING INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION PLANNING
WARNING: Read all instructions completely and
thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to
do so could result in serious injury, property damage
or loss of life. Operation of improperly installed and
maintained venting system could result in serious
injury, property damage or loss of life.
There are two basic types of direct-vent installation:
• Horizontal Termination
• Vertical Termination
It is important to select the proper length of vent pipe for the type of
terminationyouchoose. Itisalsoimportanttonotethewallthickness.
For Horizontal Termination: Select the amount of vertical rise
desired. The horizontal run of venting must have 1/4" rise for every
12" of run towards the termination.
NOTICE: Do not seal termination cap to pipe. Cap
must be removable for servicing vent system.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these instructions will void
the warranty.
WARNING: Never run the vent pipe downward as
this may cause excessive temperatures which could
cause a fire.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
You may use up to two 90° elbows on any single horizontal run of
ventpipeinthisconfiguration.SeeHorizontalTerminationConfigu-
rations, and Figures 28 and 30 on page 15.
Consult local building codes before beginning the installation. The
installer must make sure to select the proper vent system for installa-
tion. Before installing vent kit, the installer must read this stove and
burner system manual and vent kit instructions.
For Vertical Termination: Measure the distance from the burner
systemflueoutlettotheceiling.Addtheceilingthickness,thevertical
rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height
above the roofline. You may use up to three 90° elbows, depending
on venting configuration. See Vertical Termination Configurations
on page 17.
Only a qualified service person should install venting system. The
installer must follow these safety rules:
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection
• Use extreme caution when using ladders or when on roof tops
• Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings
Note: You may use up to two 45° elbows in place of a 90° elbow.
You must follow rise to run ratios when using 45° elbows.
Thefollowingactionswillvoidthewarrantyonyourventingsystem:
• Installation of any damaged venting component
• Unauthorized modification of the venting system
For two-story applications, firestops are required at each floor level
(see Figure 32, page 16). If an offset is needed in the attic, additional
pipe and elbows will be required.
• Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved
by DESA
You may use a chase with a vent termination with exposed pipe on the
exterior of the house. See Installing Vent System in a Chase, page 13.
• Installation other than as instructed by these instructions
Your stove with direct-vent burner system has been tested for a
maximum horizontal run of 20' with 8' vertical rise (see Installation
for Horizontal Termination, page 13). The maximum vertical run is
40' (see Installation for Vertical Termination, page 16).
WARNING: This stove with burner system and
ventassemblymustbeventeddirectlytotheoutside.
The venting system must NEVER be attached to a
chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning appli-
ance. Each gas appliance must use a separate vent
system. Do not use common vent systems.
It is very important that the venting system maintain its balance
between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust. Certain
limitationsapplytoventconfigurationsandmustbestrictlyfollowed.
WARNING: Horizontal sections of this vent system
require a minimum clearance of 2" from the top of the
pipe and 1" minimum to the sides and bottom. Vertical
sections of this system require a minimum of 1" clear-
ance to combustible materials on all sides of the pipe.

1. Determine the route your horizontal venting will take. Note: The
location of the horizontal vent termination on the exterior wall
must meet all local and national building codes and must not be
blocked or obstructed.
Adequate
drainage
WARNING: Do not recess vent terminal into a wall
or siding.
Snorkel terminations are available for terminations requiring a
vertical rise on the exterior of the building (see Figures 21 and
22). Snorkel kit VKS-47-K is also available (see page 19). Fol-
low the same installation procedures used for standard horizon-
tal termination with the exception of the external wall firestop.
The snorkel termination does not require the use of the external
wall firestop. If installing the snorkel termination below grade
(basement applications), you must provide proper drainage to
prevent water from entering the snorkel termination (see Figure
22). Do not back fill around the snorkel termination.

2. Vent pipes and fittings have special twist-lock connections. As-
semble the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the appli-
ance adaptor with pipe seams oriented towards the wall or floor.
Female
Locking Lugs
Twist-lock Procedure: The female ends of the pipes and fittings
have four locking lugs (indentations). These lugs will slide straight
into matching slots on the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings.
(All connections must be sealed with high temperature silicone
sealant as specified in the second warning statement on page 12.)
Push the pipe sections together and twist one section clockwise
approximately one-quarter turn until the sections are fully locked.
See Figure 23. Note: Horizontal runs of vent must be supported
every three feet. Use wall straps for this purpose.

3. Attach vent pipe assembly to the burner system. Set stove in
front of it’s permanent location to insure minimum clearances.
Mark the wall for a 10"(25.4cm) square hole (for noncombus-
tible material such as masonry block or concrete, a 7 1/2" (19.1cm)
diameter hole is acceptable). See Figure 24. The center of the
hole should line up with the center-line of the horizontal rigid
vent pipe. Cut a 10"x10" (25.4cm x 25.4cm) square hole through
6. Carefully move the fireplace with vent assembly attached toward
the wall and insert the vent pipe into the horizontal termination.
The pipe overlap should be a minimum of 1 1/4" (3.2cm). Fasten
all vent pipe connections (except vent cap) with screws provided.
7. Combustible Exterior Wall Only: Slide the wall firestop
against the interior wall surface and attach with screws pro-
vided (see Figure 27).

WARNING: Do not recess vent termination in to
any wall. This will cause a fire hazard.
Combustible ExteriorWall: For vinyl siding, stucco, or wood
exteriors, a siding standoff must be installed between the vent
cap and exterior wall. The siding standoff prevents excessive
heat from damaging siding materials. Siding materials must be
cut to accommodate standoff. Bolt the vent cap to the stand-
off. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of the
standoff. Position the standoff/cap assembly in the center of
the 10" (25.4cm) square hole and attach to exterior wall with
wood screws provided (see Figure 26). The siding standoff must
sit flush against the exterior fascia material.

INSTALLATION FOR VERTICAL
TERMINATION
1. Cut a 10" (25.4cm) square hole in the ceiling using the locat-
ing hole as a center point. The opening should be framed to
10"x10" (25.4cm x 25.4cm) inside dimensions, as shown in
Figure 24 on page 14 using framing lumber the same size as
the ceiling joists. If the area above the ceiling is an insulated
ceiling or a room, nail firestop from the top side. This pre-
vents loose insulation from falling into the required clear-
ance space. Otherwise, install firestop below the framed hole.
The firestop should be installed with no less than three nails
per side (see Figure 32).
NOTICE: Use rigid pipe only. Flex venting is not to be
used with a vertical termination.
1. Determine the route your vertical venting will take. If ceiling
joists, roof rafters, or other framing will obstruct the venting
system, consider an offset (see Figure 31) to avoid cutting load
bearing members. Note: Pay special attention to these installa-
tion instructions for required clearances (air space) to combus-
tibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures,
attic rafters, etc. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Also
note maximum vertical rise of the venting system and any maxi-
mum horizontal offset limitations. Offsets must fall within the
parameters shown in Figures 35 through 37, pages 17 and 18.
2. Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows necessary
to reach from the burner system flue up through the firestop.
All connections must be sealed with high temperature sili-
cone sealant as specified in the second warning statement on
page 12. Be sure all pipe and elbow connections are fully
twist-locked (see Figure 23, page 13).
2. Set the stove in desired location. Drop a plumb line down from
the ceiling to the position of the burner system exit flue. Mark
the center point where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill
a small locating hole at this point.
3. Cut a hole in the roof using the locating hole as a center point.
(Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof.)
The 10"x10" (25.4cm x 25.4cm) hole must be measured on
the horizontal; actual length may be larger depending on the
pitch of the roof. There must be a 1" clearance from the vent
pipe to combustible materials. Frame the opening as shown in
Figure 24 on page 14.
Drop a plumb line from the inside of the roof to the locating
hole in the ceiling. Mark the center point where the vent will
penetrate the roof. Drill a small locating hole at this point.
Roof
Flashing
4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through the hole.
Note: If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must
support the vent pipe every 3 feet. Use wall straps for this
purpose (see Figure 31). Whenever possible, use 45° elbows
instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction
to the flow of the flue gases and intake air.
Wall Strap
5. Place the flashing over the pipe section(s) extending through
the roof. Secure the base of the flashing to the roof and fram-
ing with roofing nails. Be sure roofing material overlaps the
top edge of the flashing as shown in Figure 31. There must be
a 1" clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials.
45° Elbow
If area above is not a
room, install firestop below
framed hole.
If area above is a room, install
firestop above framed hole.

6. Continue to add pipe sections until the height of the vent cap
meets the minimum building code requirements described in
Figure 20 on page 11. Note: You must increase vent height for
steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining rooflines, steep
pitched roofs, and other similar factors may cause poor draft
or down-drafting in high winds. Increasing the vent height may
solve this problem.

7. Twist-lock the vent cap onto the last section of vent pipe and
seal outer pipe connection with high temperature silicone seal-
ant as specified in the second warning statement on page 12.

the inside walls and into the roof sheathing.
4. Using tin snips, cut the support box from the top corners down
to the roofline and fold the resulting flaps over the roof sheath-
ing (see Figure 34).Apply a bead of nonhardening mastic around
the top edges of the support box to make a seal between the box
and the roof. Nail in place with roofing nails. Remove any com-
bustible material that might be inside of the support box.

INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
1. If the average room temperature exceeds 82 degrees Fahr-
enheit (28 degrees Centigrade), the hand-held remote con-
trol will perform a safety override and shut the fireplace
off. This feature is not available in the MANU mode.
2. The receiver continuously receives signals from the hand-
held remote to control the room temperature. If the hand-
held remote is misplaced, obstructed, or for any reason can-
not transmit to the receiver, the receiver will shut off the
fireplace after 8 minutes.
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame height.
Alterations may have occurred during shipping and handling. Call
a qualified service person to readjust the pilot if necessary.
The height of the thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2" above the pilot
flame as shown in Figure 63. The thermocouple must be at a height
of about 1/8" above the pilot flame. The flame from the pilot burner
must extend beyond both the thermocouple and thermopile.
If your pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:
• turn burner system off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 26)
• see Troubleshooting, page 30
Key Pad Lock Feature
This feature allows the user to lock/unlock the keypad on the
hand-held remote in the MANU or AUTO mode to prevent
inadvertent operation (i.e. children operating the hand-held re-
mote control, etc.). The keypad is locked in either on or off. Press

Figure 63 - Pilot Assembly
If you are using CDA3620TB blower with optional thermostat
(wall mount or remote control) for the burner system, your
burner system and blower will not turn on and off at the same
time. The burner system may run for several minutes before the
blower turns on. After the burner system modulates to the pilot
position, the blower will continue to run. The blower will shut off
after the burner system temperature decreases.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating. Flame patterns
will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on
installation type and weather conditions.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly, the flames will lift
or “ghost”. This can be dangerous. Inspect the flames after instal-
lation to ensure proper installation and performance.
The blower helps distribute heated air from the burner system.
Periodically check the air passageways of the burner system
andremoveanydust, dirt, orotherobstructionsthatwillhinder
the flow of air.

WARNING: Turn off burner system and let cool
before cleaning.
CAUTION: Do not vacuum if pieces are hot.
Use only the ceramic glass door replacement intended for this
burner system (see Replacement Parts, page 33 for detail on
ordering). No substitutions may be made. See Removing/Replacing
Glass Door, page 24 for instructions for replacing glass door.
CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burners,
and circulating air passageways of burner system
and stove clean. Inspect these areas of burner sys-
tem and stove before each use. Have burner system
and stove inspected yearly by a qualified service
person. Burner system and stove may need more
frequent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpet-
ing, bedding material, pet hair, etc.
WARNING:Donotoperateburnersystemwiththe
glass door removed, cracked, or broken.
PILOT AND BURNERS
• Remove ember material before cleaning burners and replace
when cleaning is complete.
GLASS DOOR
• Burner and controls should be cleaned with compressed air to
remove dust, dirt, or lint.
WARNING: Handle glass door panel with care.
Donotstrike, slam, orotherwiseabuseglass. Donot
operate burner system with the glass door removed,
cracked, or broken.
• Use a vacuum cleaner or small, soft bristled brush to remove
excess dust, dirt, or lint.
LOGS
• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Installing Logs, Lava
Rock, and Glowing Embers, page 25, to properly replace logs.
WARNING: Do not use abrasive cleaners as this
may damage glass. Use a nonabrasive household
glass cleaner to clean glass. Do not clean glass
when hot.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any carbon buildup on logs.
• Replace log(s) if broken. See Replacement Parts on page 33.
• Replace ember material periodically as needed. See Replacement
Parts on page 33.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up it is normal for
condensationtoformontheinsideoftheglasscausinglint,dust,and
other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. During initial
startup a slight film may form on the glass due to paint curing. The
glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, non-
abrasivehouseholdcleanerandwarmwaterafterthefirsttwoweeks
of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times during
each heating season, depending on the usage and circumstances
present.RefertoRemoving/ReplacingGlassDooronpage24ofthis
manual when removing glass door for cleaning.
VENTING SYSTEM
Conduct annual inspection of the venting system following these
guidelines:
1. Check areas of venting system that are exposed to the
weather for corrosion (rust spots or streaks and, in extreme
cases, holes). Have these items replaced immediately by a
qualified service person.
2. Remove the vent cap and shine a flashlight into the vent.
Remove any foreign material.
WARNING: Only parts supplied by the manufac-
turer should be used when replacing broken or
damaged glass door panel (see Replacement Parts,
page 33). This glass door panel is a complete unit.
No substitute materials may be used.
3. Check for evidence of excessive condensation. Continuous
condensation can cause corrosion of caps, pipes, and fittings
and can be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, or exterior portions of the system being exposed to
cold weather.
4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section or fitting has been
disturbed and loosened. Check mechanical supports such as
wall straps for rigidity.
CAUTION: Wear gloves and safety glasses while
handling or removing broken glass. Do not remove if
glass is hot. Keep children and pets away from glass.
If glass has been broken, carefully remove glass door (see Remov-
ing/Replacing Glass Door, page 24). Vacuum all glass pieces with
a shop vac.
