INSTALLATION IMPORTANT MESSAGE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS The Panorama P121/P121LC/P121RC/P131NG1 or P121/P121LC/P121RC/P131-LP1 Direct Vent Fireplace must be installed in accordance with these instructions. Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first. Consult the "authority having jurisdiction" to determine the need for a permit prior to starting the installation.
INSTALLATION GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION 1) The appliance installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current Canadian or National Gas Codes, CAN1-B149 or ANSI Z223.1 Installation Codes. 2) See general construction and assembly instructions. The appliance and vent should be enclosed. 3) This appliance must be connected to the specified vent and termination cap to the outside of the building envelope. Never vent to another room or inside a building.
INSTALLATION LOCATING YOUR GAS FIREPLACE A) P121-2 See Thru 1) When selecting a location for your fireplace, ensure that the clearances are met as outlined in the "Clearances" section. 2) Provide adequate clearances for servicing. 3) The appliance must be installed on a flat, solid, continuous surface (e.g. wood, metal, concrete). This may be the floor, or raised up on a platform to enhance its visual impact.
INSTALLATION CLEARANCES The clearances listed below are Minimum distances unless otherwise stated (refer to diagrams in the "Locating Your Fireplace" section): Clearance to Combustibles from: Back 0" (0mm) Side 0" (0mm) Floor 0" (0mm) CAUTION REQUIREMENTS: The top, back and sides of the fireplace are defined by standoffs. The metal ends of the standoffs may NOT be recessed into combustible construction. Determine the total thickness of the finished floor (eg.
INSTALLATION FRAMING AND FINISHING 1) For ease of installation, frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Remember to install the top standoffs. See the "Unit Assembly Prior to Installation" section. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes. Framing Dimensions P121-2 (See Thru) P131-2 (Pier) P121LC-2 / P121RC-2 (Corner Unit) CAUTION: Verify your fireplace dimensions, framing methods and finished wall facing details before framing.
INSTALLATION Facing & Finishing Requirements This fireplace is supplied with a 3" metal extension trim above the fireplace. The extension trim may be replaced if the framing is faced with a noncombustible material placed flush with the front and side face of the unit and extending from the top of the unit. (ie. tile, slate, etc.) UNIT ASSEMBLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION The 4 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position.

INSTALLATION VERTICAL TERMINATIONS 1) Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check the "Venting Arrangement" section for the maximum vertical rise of the venting system and the maximum horizontal offset limitations. 4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows.
INSTALLATION local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height must be increased. A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height may solve the problem. 7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of the flashing to the roof with roofing rails, slide storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic. 8) Install the vertical termination cap by twistlocking it.
INSTALLATION CONVERSION KIT #731-969 FROM NG TO LP FOR P121-2/P121LC-2/P121RC-2/P131-2 USING SIT 820 NOVA GAS VALVE THIS CONVERSION MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED GAS FITTER IF IN DOUBT DO NOT DO THIS CONVERSION !!

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS OF GAS APPLIANCES COPY OF THE LIGHTING PLATE INSTRUCTIONS It is possible that you will hear some sounds from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to the fact that there are various gauges and types of steel used within your appliance. Listed below are some examples. All are normal operating sounds and should not be considered as defects in your appliance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS 2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other foreign material. 1) Always turn off the gas valve before cleaning. For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep the burner and control compartment clean by brushing and vacuuming at least once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.
MAINTENANCE REMOVING VALVE 8) Remove the Side Base Brick Panels and finally the Long Base Brick Panels. 1) Shut off the gas supply. 13) Undo the pilot tube from the valve with a 7/16" wrench. 14) Undo the quick drop out thermocouple nut on the valve with a 9mm (metric) wrench. 2) Remove the louvers and trim kit. Remove the front door. 15) Remove the Piezo igniter wire and push button assembly. 3) Remove the logs, embers. 16) Undo the "gas out" flare nut with a 13/16" wrench.
