C. Constructing the Appliance Chase  
D. Clearances  
A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the  
gas appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that  
run on the outside of a building may be, but are not re-  
quired to be, installed inside a chase.  
WARNING  
Fire Risk.  
Odor Risk.  
Construction of the chase may vary with the type of build-  
ing. These instructions are not substitutes for the require-  
ments of local building codes. Local building codes MUST  
be checked.  
Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces  
extending full width and depth of appliance.  
Do NOT install appliance directly on carpeting,  
vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than  
wood.  
Chases should be constructed in the manner of all out-  
side walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting prob-  
lems. The chase should not break the outside building  
envelope in any manner.  
WARNING  
Fire Risk.  
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever oor of the chase  
should be insulated. Vapor and air inltration barriers  
should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for  
the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold  
air inltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be  
sheetrocked and taped for maximum air tightness.  
Construct chase to all clearance specications  
in manual.  
Locate and install appliance to all clearance  
specications in manual.  
CAUTION  
To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling re-  
stops should be caulked with high temperature caulk to  
seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be  
caulked with high temp caulk or stuffed with unfaced insu-  
lation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement slab,  
a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent  
conducting cold up into the room.  
The Soho24B requires an elevated platform construction  
to accommodate the Studio fronts, which are larger than  
the appliance.

NOTE 1: On private property where termination is less than 7 feet above  
a sidewalk, driveway, deck, porch, veranda or balcony, use of a listed cap  
shield is suggested. (See vents components page)  
WARNING: In the U.S: Vent system termination is NOT permitted in  
screened porches. You must follow side wall, overhang and ground  
clearances as stated in the instructions.  
NOTE 2: Termination in an alcove space (spaces open only on one side  
and with an overhang) are permitted with the dimensions specied for  
vinyl or non-vinyl siding and softs. 1. There must be 3 feet minimum  
between termination caps. 2. All mechanical air intakes within 10 feet  
of a termination cap must be a minimum of 3 feet below the termination  
cap. 3. All gravity air intakes within 3 feet of a termination cap must be a  
minimum of 1 foot below the termination cap.  
In Canada: Vent system termination is NOT permitted in screened  
porches. Vent system termination is permitted in porch areas with  
two or more sides open. You must follow all side walls, overhang  
and ground clearances as stated in the instructions.  
Heat & Glo assumes no responsibility for the improper performance  
of the appliance when the venting system does not meet these  
requirements.

C. Measuring Standards  
• Vent this appliance directly outside.  
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent  
diagrams were made using the following standards.  
• Use separate vent system for this appliance.  
May impair safe operation of this appliance or  
other appliances connected to the ue.  
1. Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length  
of pipe (see Figure 5.2).  
2. Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside  
mounting surface (ange of termination cap) (see  
Figure 4.1).  
B. Use of Elbows  
3. Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of termi-  
nation cap.  
CAUTION  
ALL vent conguration specications MUST be followed.  
• This product is tested and listed to these specications.  
4. Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.  
• Appliance performance will suffer if specications are not  
followed.

CAUTION  
Initial Break-in Procedure  
• Prevent accidental appliance operation when not  
attended.  
When you light the 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 of the glass is normal.  
• Unplug or remove batteries from remote control if absent  
or if appliance will not be used for an extended period of  
time.  
• Property damage possible from elevated temperatures.  
CAUTION  
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.  
Smoke and odors released during initial operation.  
Open windows for air circulation.

D. Frequently Asked Questions  
ISSUE  
SOLUTIONS  
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this  
condensation will disappear.  
Condensation on the glass  
This is a result of normal operation and the ames will begin to yellow as the appliance is al-  
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.  
Blue ames  
When rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the rst several hours. This is  
caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufactur-  
ing. Odor may also be released from nishing materials and adhesives used around the  
appliance.  
Odor from appliance  
Film on the glass  
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 replace glass 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.  
Metallic noise  
Is it normal to see the pilot ame burn In an Intellire ignition system it is normal to see the pilot ame, but it should turn off when  
continually?  
ON/OFF is turned off. In a standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.

spark.  
Verify “S” wire (white) for sensor and “I” wire (orange) for ignitor are connected to  
correct terminals on module and pilot assembly. Reversed wires at the module may  
cause system to make sparking noise, but spark may not be present at pilot hood.  
b. Loose connections Verify no loose connections or electrical shorts in wiring from module to pilot assem-  
or electrical shorts in  
the wiring.  
bly. Rod closest to pilot hood should be ignitor. Verify connections underneath pilot  
assembly are tight; also verify connections are not grounding out to metal chassis,  
pilot burner, pilot enclosure, mesh screen if present, or any other metal object.  
c. Ignitor gap is too  
large.  
Verify gap of igniter to pilot hood. The gap should be approximately .17 inch or 1/8  
inch.  
d. Faulty module.
