High Altitude Installations
Appliance Certification
The Heat-N-Glo fireplace models discussed in this Installers
Guide have been tested to certification standards and listed
by the applicable laboratories.
U.L. Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for
elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in the U.S.A. and from 0 to
4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2,000
feet (in the United States), it may be necessary to decrease
the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a
smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent (4%) for
each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating value of
the gas has been reduced, in which case this general rule
will not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with
the local gas utility.

Step 3. Installing the Vent System
A. Vent System Approvals
Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in-
clude one, two, or three 90° elbow assemblies. The rela-
tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura-
tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The
rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings
and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.
These models are approved to use D-series direct vent pipe
components and terminations (see Figures 4 and 5). Ap-
proved vent system components are labeled for identifica-
tion. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved compo-
nent of the fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside an
enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection open-
ings at each joint within the wall. There is no required pitch
for horizontal vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYSTEMS
OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.
NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one
90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must
be followed if 45° elbows are used.
Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent
termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this
Installers Guide.
This model has vent starting collars on both the top and the
back of the unit. Depending upon the installation, decide
which ONE set of starting collars will be used to attach the
vent system. The starting collar sealing cap must remain
on the starting collar NOT used.
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the type
of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.

1. Attach the First Vent Component to the
Starting Collars
B. Installing Vent Components
After determining which set of starting collars will be used
(top or rear), follow venting instructions accordingly.
To attach the first vent component to the starting collars of
the fireplace:
Venting Out the Rear Vent
Remove the installed rear seal cap from the rear starting
collars by cutting the strap at each end. (see Figure 15).
Follow the vent configuration tables accordingly.
Apply a 3/8 inch (9.5mm) bead of stove cement around
the 5 inch (127mm) fireplace starting collar.
Remove the insulation from the REAR five inch flue, pull
the heat shield out from outside of the firebox.
Make sure that the fiberglass rope gasket supplied with
the fireplace seals between the first 8-5/8 inch (219mm)
vent component and the outer fireplace wrap.
WARNING: THE TOP HEAT SHIELD (INSIDE
THE FIREBOX) MUST REMAIN ATTACHED IF
THE VENT SYSTEM IS ATTACHED TO THE
REAR STARTING COLLARS. SEE FIGURE 15.
!
Lock the vent components into place by sliding the con-
centric pipe sections with four (4) equally spaced interior
beads into the fireplace collar or previously installed com-

Placing the Ember Material
Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace
Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. The bag
labeled Glowing Ember (050-721) is standard glowing ember
material. To place the ember material:
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
Pull the four glass latches out of the groove on the glass
frame. Remove glass door from the unit (see Figure 39).
Read the Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
Double-check for gas leaks
Place dime size pieces of Glowing Ember (050-721)
ember material about 1/2 inch apart near port holes in
burner top. Do NOT press embers into burner ports. Cover
the top of the burner with a single layer of ember mate-
rial. For best performance do NOT place embers on the
ports at the rear of the burner.
Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible gas leaks.
Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for
obstructions.
Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter-
minations or the front grilles.
Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire-
place servicing.
Double-check for faulty components
Replace the glass door and a front trim door on the unit.
Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-
placed with an approved component. ampering with the
fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all war-
ranties.
Pull out and latch the glass clips into the groove on the
glass frame.
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When
first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is
complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally.
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which
case the air would have to be purged.
NOTE: The fireplace should be run for 8 hours on the initial
start-up. This will help to cure the chemicals used in the
paint and logs.
