D. How to Use the Vent Graph
E. Venting Guidelines
NOTES
1. Measure the vertical distance from the center line of the
flue pipe 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.
The maximum horizontal vent run is 15 ft. (5m) when the
vertical vent rise is 10 ft. (3m).
The minimum horizontal vent run is 11 in. (279mm).
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.
Horizontal sections require a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise for every 12
ft. (305mm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6 5/8 in. (168mm); Inner Vent Diam-
eter = 4 in. (101mm)
EXAMPLE 1: If the vertical dimension from the center line
of the flue vent to the center of the 90° elbow is 7 ft. (2m),
the horizontal run to the outer wall flange must not exceed
13 ft. (4m).
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support every 3
ft. (914mm), e.g. wall straps.
EXAMPLE 2: If the vertical dimension from the center line
of the flue vent is 21 ft. (6m), the horizontal run to the outer
wall flange must not exceed 9 ft. (3m).
A minimum 2 ft. (610mm) vertical rise is required before the
90 degree elbow.
NOTE: If your installation falls within the gray-shaded area
on graph, see information on Vertical damper adjustment in
Section8. (IntheCommonwealthofMassachusetts,theword
damper shall be replaced with the words flue restrictor.)
4. Each 90° elbow is equivalent to 3 ft. (914mm) of vent
pipe and each 45° elbow is equivalent to 1 ft. (305mm)
of vent pipe, and must be subtracted from the vent pipe
run. A single horizontal to vertical 90° elbow is already
calculated into the allowable 15 ft. (5m) run. Each
additional 90° elbow reduces the maximum horizontal
distance by 3 ft. (914mm).
EXAMPLE: The use of 3 elbows would reduce the allowable
horizontal run to 9 ft. (3 -1 = 2 elbows x 3 ft. = 6 ft.; 15 ft.
max. - 6 ft. = 9 ft. maximum).

Step 1.
• Maintain specified slope (if required).
Determine the desired location of the appliance. 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 appliance.
Improper support may allow vent to sag or separate.
Step 3.
For installations using a round support box/wall thimble
(check pipe manufacturer's instructions), mark the wall for a
10 in. x 10 in. (254mm x 254mm) square hole. The center
of the square hole should line up with the center line of the
horizontal pipe, as shown in Figure 5.5 on the next page.
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
in. (178mm) diameter hole is acceptable.
WARNING
Fire Hazard.

•
•
Ensure vent components are locked together correctly.
Pipe may separate if not properly joined.
Step 2.
Direct vent pipe is designed with a locking connection. To
connect the venting system to the appliance flue outlet, a
twist-lock adapter is built into the appliance at the factory.
Remember to include wall thickness in minimum clearances
when figuring the measurements for your installation
needs.
Note: Direct vent pipe is designed to slide straight onto
the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings by orienting the
pipe indentations so they match and slide into the entry slots
on the male ends, see Figure 5.4. 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 may not be visible from
the outside, on the pipe or fittings. They may be located by
examining the inside of the female ends.

(914mm) tall snorkel termination cap. 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.
Figure 5.7
(NOTE: If you are installing termination cap HHW2, the
pipe will be off center on the flashing). Ensure that proper
clearances to combustible materials are maintained. If
you are using an approved termination cap other than
HHW2 (part #841-0670) on a building with vinyl siding,
a vinyl siding standoff should be installed between the
vent cap and the exterior wall (Figure 5.8, on the next
page). Attach the vinyl siding standoff to the horizontal
vent termination. The vinyl siding standoff prevents
excessive heat from possibly melting the vinyl siding
material. Vent terminal shall not be recessed into a
wall or siding. Remove siding from the area where the
standoff will be located..
Step 4.
Position the horizontal termination cap in the center of the 10
in. x 10 in. (254mm x 254mm) square hole and 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 screws provided. The
arrow on the vent cap should be pointing up (Figure 5.6)

Step 2.
Step 4.
Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows necessary
to reach from the appliance up through the round support
box. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their
fully twist-locked position. Assemble as instructed.
Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb
bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance
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
appliance, or to offset, as shown in Figure 5.13 to avoid
cutting load bearing members. When location is determined,
drill small hole.
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/wall thimble
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 ft. (914mm)
to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible
separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose,
Figure 5.13.

NAILS
Continue to assemble pipe sections until the height of the
vent (before adding the termination cap) 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 Roof Pitch Table (Figure 4.3, on page 8). 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 or
switching to the high wind termination cap may solve this
problem.

D. After Appliance is Lit
CAUTION
Prevent accidental appliance operation when not
attended.
Unplug or remove batteries from remote control if absent
or if appliance will not be used for an extended period of
time.
Initial Break-in Procedure
•
•
When you light your appliance, you may notice that it pro-
duces heat which does have an associated odor or smell. If
you feel this odor is excessive it may require the initial three
to four hour continuous burn on high followed by a second
burn up to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from paint and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Condensation
on the glass is normal.
•
Property damage possible from elevated temperatures.
CAUTION
Smoke and odors released during initial operation.
NOTE: The appliance should be run three to four hours
on the initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the
appliance for an additional 12 hours. This will help to cure
the products used in the paint and logs.
•
•
•
Open windows for air circulation.
Leave room during initial operation.
Smoke may set off smoke detectors.
Smoke and odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate
any odors associated with the appliance’s initial burning.
WARNING
Fire Hazard.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and liquids
clear of appliance.

•
Keep furniture, draperies away from appliance.
E. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUE
SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms,
this condensation will disappear.
Blue flames
This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the appliance
is allowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
Odor from appliance
When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several hours.
This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing. If appliance has not been used for some time, dust can build up and
cause an odor.
Film on the glass
Metallic noise
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be
cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the
manufacturing process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance cleaner may be
necessary. See your dealer.
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down,
similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect
the operation or longevity of the appliance.

inserted and tight (hand tighten plus 1/4 turn).
Disconnect the thermocouple from the valve, place one millivolt lead
wire on the tip of the thermocouple and the other meter wire on the
thermocouple copper lead. Start the pilot and hold the valve knob in. If
the millivolt reading is less than 15mV, replace the thermocouple.

Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at the gas valve ter-
minals are tight and that the thermopile is fully inserted into the pilot
bracket.
Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take the reading at TH-TP
& TP terminals of the gas valve. The meter should read 325 millivolts
minimum, while holding the valve knob depressed in the pilot position,
with the pilot lit, and the ON/OFF switch in the OFF position. Replace
the faulty thermopile if the reading is below the specified minimum.
With the pilot in the ON position, disconnect the thermopile leads from
the valve. Take a reading at the thermopile leads. The reading should
be 325 millivolts minimum. Replace the thermopile if the reading is
below the minimum.
