Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM General Information These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not supersede local codes in any way. Install venting according to local codes, these instructions, the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the current standards of CAN/CSA-B149.1 in Canada. Ensure clearances are in accordance with local installation codes and the requirements of the gas supplier.
VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF) See Figure 17 on Page 13 and Figures 25 through 27 on Pages 16 and 17 and their associated Vertical Vent Tables which illustrate the various vertical venting configurations that are possible for use with these appliances. Secure Vent™ pipe applications are shown in these Figures; Secure Flex™ pipe may also be used.
Vertical (Offset) Installation Analyze the vent routing and determine the quantities of vent sections and number of elbows required. Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables on Pages 16 and 17 to select the type of vertical installation desired. Vent sections are available in net lengths of 4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm). Refer to the Vent Section Length Charts on Page 13 for an aid in selecting length combinations.
One method of support is by utilizing field provided support straps (conventional plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to the framing members with nails or screws. Loop the tape around the vent, securing the ends of the tape to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2" length may be used to secure the support straps to the vent pipe. Refer to Figure 20. F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined run - At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.
VERTICAL VENT FIGURES/TABLES TABLE A Notes: • Secure Vent™ (rigid vent pipe) is shown in the Figures; Secure Flex™ (flexible vent pipe) may also be used. • It is very important that the horizontal/ inclined run be maintained in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20 mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or near level. • SV4.

J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not previously measured, locate the center of the vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as described in Step B and Figure 29. Assemble the vent system to point where the terminus of the last section is located relative to the exterior surface to which the termination is to be attached as shown in Figure 30 and Table 9. If the terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use the telescopic vent section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section.

VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL VENTING USING SECURE FLEX™ KITS AND COMPONENTS Secure Flex™ venting kits and components may be used in any venting application in place of rigid Secure Vent™ (SV4.5) direct-vent components. All restrictions, clearances and allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply to the flexible venting. Secure Flex kits may not be modified; also, under no circumstances may separate sections of flex pipe be joined together. Using adaptor (SV4.
Step 4. FIELD WIRING CAUTION Ground supply lead must be connected to the wire attached to the green ground screw located on the outlet box. See Figure 38. Failure to do so will result in a potential safety hazard. The appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. (In Canada, the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code).
BLOWER CONTROL CIRCUIT WIRING 120V, 60HZ, 1PH Ground - Green Neutral - White 120 VAC - Black Note: Remote receiver should be located in the wall, or if installed in the control compartment, pulled all the way forward and completely to the left or right against the corner posts. The door must be removed first to place the receiver in the lower control compartment. 7. If wall-mounted ON/OFF control or thermostat is to be used, mount it in a convenient location on a wall near the fireplace.
Step 6. CONNECTING GAS LINE All codes require a shut-off valve mounted in the supply line. The orientation of the shut-off valve should face the front. Figure 39 illustrates two methods for connecting the gas supply. A sediment trap is recommended in the gas piping within the home to prevent moisture and debris in the line from damaging the valve. The flex-line method is acceptable in the U.S.A. where local codes permit, however, Canadian requirements vary depending on locality.
Step 7. VERIFYING APPLIANCE OPERATION With gas line installed run initial system checkout before closing up the front of the unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions provided in the Care and Operation Instructions manual. For piezo igniter location see Figure 40 on Page 26 (millivolt appliances only).

Step 8. INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE, GLOWING EMBERS AND LOGS Glowing Embers Separate into Quarter Size (separate) Pieces NOTE: Turn off all electricity to the appliance before you install volcanic stone, embers and logs. For log placement instructions, refer to the detailed steps in Figures 46, 47 and 48. Loosen the set screw for the venturi air shutter. Manually actuate the air shutter through several cycles. Set the air shutter to 3/32" before placing the logs. 1.
