VENTINGINSTALLATIONContinued

CHECKING VENT CAPACITYComplete all gas piping, electrical, and ventconnections. After adjusting the fireplaceand lighting the main burners, allow a coupleof minutes for warm-up. Hold a lightedmatch just under the rim of the draft hoodrelief opening. Proper venting will draw theflame toward or into the draft hood. Im-proper venting, indicated by escape or spill-age of burned gas, will cause match toflicker or go out. Smoke from a cigarettewill also be pulled into the draft hood if thevent is drawing properly.

TROUBLESHOOTINGVENTINGPROBLEMSMost venting problems are caused by incor-rect vent sizing, improper installation, orinadequate air supply. A preliminary checkfor a field problem might include:

• Using a draft meter to determine ifventing system draft meetsmanufacturer’s specifications

• Checking the vent sizing according tomanufacturer’s specifications, applianceinput, and venting configuration

• Examining the entire venting system forfaults such as disconnected joints fordamaged vent sections

• Making sure vent and air openings arenot obstructed

If these procedures do not reveal the source ofthe problem, troubleshooting may includeattention to common venting problems.

FLUE GAS SPILLAGESpillage occurs when flue gases cannot exitthe vent system and back up into the dwell-ing. A primary symptom of appliancesequipped with a Vent Safety Shutoff System(flue spill switch) is unexplained applianceshutoffs. Other symptoms of flue gas spillageat the draft hood include condensation onwalls and windows and/or noticeable odors.Spillage may also result in the release ofcarbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, highlytoxic gas. A simple spillage test can be con-ducted if spillage is suspected. See CheckingGas Connection, pages 14 and 15.

CAUSES OF SPILLAGE ANDCORRECTIVE ACTION

Incorrect Vent Sizing

If the vent is too small or too short, spillagemay occur. If the vent is too large, excessivedilution air may cool flue gases and reducedraft, causing spillage. The vent cap sizeshould also be checked. Checkmanufacturer’s instructions, appliance in-put rating, and appropriate sizing tables.

Venting Condition

Loose joints can affect draft and cause spill-age. “Mashed” vent sections and damagedvent caps can restrict flow and cause spill-age. Examine and replace as needed.

Obstructions

Small animals or birds may get into and blockthe vent or draft hood outlet. Dust, lint, andforeign objects may obstruct air inlets. Re-move obstructions and clean openings.

Lateral Run

Lengthy horizontal or non-vertical runs causeresistance to flow and may reduce draftenough to cause spillage. The pitch of lateralruns can also be a problem; lateral runsshould be pitched 1/4" rise per foot of hori-zontal run from the appliance to the vent.

Elbows

Too many elbows cause excessive restric-tion of flow and may result in spillage.Usually, two 90º turns can be tolerated in aproperly sized venting system. More thantwo may cause problems and necessitatechanging the system.

Negative Pressure in theDwelling

An extremely tight house may not supplyadequate combustion and venting air. Useof mechanical exhaust such as a dryer ventor range vent may worsen the problem. Anair exchange system must be installed in thedwelling to correct this problem.

Flue Gas Cooling

Venting exposed to extremely cold tem-peratures or venting of single wall construc-tion loses heat needed to maintain draft;massive masonry chimneys absorb neededheat. If the flue gases cool excessively, draftis reduced and spillage may result. Useproper materials, insulate and protect prop-erly, reline when necessary.

Down Drafts

In certain wind conditions and in certainrelationships with nearby structures andobjects, high pressure conditions may affectdraft negatively. Relocate the vent cap, raiseits height, or use an approved high wind cap.

Before installing stove and burner system,make sure you have the items listed below.

• external regulator (supplied by installer)

• piping (check local codes)

• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

• equipment shutoff valve *

• test gauge connection *

• sediment trap

• tee joint

• pipe wrench

• approved flexible gas line with gas con-nector (if allowed by local codes) (notprovided)

* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoffvalve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptablealternative to test gauge connection. Pur-chase the CSA design-certified equipmentshutoff valve from your dealer.

For propane/LP connections only, the in-staller must supply an external regulator.The external regulator will reduce incominggas pressure. You must reduce incominggas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches ofwater. If you do not reduce incoming gaspressure, heater regulator damage couldoccur. Install external regulator with thevent pointing down as shown in Figure 30.Pointing the vent down protects it fromfreezing rain or sleet.

Sediment Trap/Drip Leg

Natural - From GasMeter (5" W.C. to 10.5"W.C. Pressure )

CAUTION: Use pipe joint seal-ant that is resistant to liquid pe-troleum (LP) gas.

We recommend that you install a sedimenttrap/drip leg in supply line as shown inFigure 31. Locate sediment trap/drip legwhere it is within reach for cleaning. Installin piping system between fuel supply andheater. Locate sediment trap/drip leg wheretrapped matter is not likely to freeze. Asediment trap traps moisture and contami-nants. This keeps them from going intoburner system gas controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is installed wrong,burner system may not run properly.

CAUTION: Use only new,black iron or steel pipe. Inter-nally-tinned copper tubing maybe used in certain areas. Checkyour local codes. Use pipe of 1/2"diameter or greater to allowproper gas volume to fireplace. Ifpipe is too small, undue loss ofpressure will occur.

Installation must include an equipmentshutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPTtap. Locate NPT tap within reach for testgauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstreamfrom burner system (see Figure 31).

Check your building codes for any specialrequirements for locating equipment shutoffvalve to stove.

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to malethreads. This will prevent excess sealantfrom going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipecould result in clogged fireplace valves.

CLEANING ANDMAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off burner sys-tem and let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep con-trol areas, burners, and circulat-ing air passageways of stove andburner system clean. Inspectthese areas before each use. Haveburner system inspected yearlyby a qualified service person.Stove and burner system mayneed more frequent cleaning dueto excessive lint from carpeting,bedding material, pet hair, etc.

WARNING: Do not use abra-sive cleaners as this may damageglass. Use a nonabrasive house-hold glass cleaner to clean glass.Do not clean glass when hot.

WARNING: Handle glassdoor panel with care. Do notstrike, slam or otherwise abuseglass. Do not operate burnersystem with the glass door re-moved, cracked, or broken.

GLASS DOOR

Glass must be cleaned periodically. Duringstart-up it is normal for condensation toform on the inside of the glass causing lint,dust, and other airborne particles to cling tothe glass surface. During initial start-up aslight film may form on the glass due topaint curing. The glass should be cleanedseveral times with a non-ammonia, non-abrasive household cleaner and warm waterafter the first two weeks of operation. There-after, clean the glass two or three timesduring each heating season, depending onthe usage and circumstances present. Referto Removing/Replacing Glass Door on page17 of this manual when removing glass doorfor cleaning.

PILOT AND BURNERS• Remove ember material before clean-

ing burners and replace when cleaningis complete.

• Burner and controls should be cleanedwith compressed air to remove dust, dirt,or lint.

• Use a vacuum cleaner or small, softbristled brush to remove excess dust, dirt,or lint.

WARNING: Only parts sup-plied by the manufacturer shouldbe used when replacing brokenor damaged glass door panel (seeReplacement Parts, page 26). Thisglass door panel is a completeunit. No substitute materials maybe used.

If glass has been broken, carefully removeglass door (see Removing/Replacing GlassDoor, page 17). Vacuum all glass pieceswith a shop vac.

CAUTION: Wear gloves andsafety glasses while handling orremoving broken glass. Do notremove if glass is hot. Keep chil-dren and pets away from glass.

WARNING: Do not operateburner system with the glass doorremoved, cracked, or broken.

Use only the ceramic glass door replace-ment intended for this burner system (seeReplacement Parts, page 26, for details onordering). No substitutions may be made.See Removing/Replacing Glass Door, page17, for instructions for replacing glass door.

CAUTION: Do not vacuum ifpieces are hot.

LOGS• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to

Installing Logs, Lava Rock, and GlowingEmbers, page 18, to properly replace logs.

• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any car-bon buildup on logs.

• Replace log(s) if broken. See Replace-ment Parts on page 26.

• Replace ember material periodically asneeded. See Replacement Parts on page 26.

VENTING SYSTEMConduct annual inspection of the ventingsystem following these guidelines:

1. Check areas of venting system that areexposed to the weather for corrosion (rustspots or streaks and, in extreme cases,holes). Have these items replaced imme-diately by a qualified service person.

2. Remove the vent cap and shine aflashlight into the vent. Remove anyforeign material.

3. Check for evidence of excessive con-densation. Continuous condensationcan cause corrosion of caps, pipes, andfittings and can be caused by havingexcessive lateral runs, too many el-bows, or exterior portions of the sys-tem being exposed to cold weather.

4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe sec-tion or fitting has been disturbed andloosened. Check mechanical supportssuch as wall straps for rigidity.
