General Information

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater, Model

Nos. 3900-3916, 3940-3956 is a vented gas appliance listed to the ANSI standard Z21.88-2005 and CSA-2.33-2005 for

Vented Room Heaters, and CSA 2.17-M91, Gas-Fired Appliances For Use at High Altitudes.

The installation of the Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent

Room Heater must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54 — latest edition and CSA B-149.1 Installation Code. (EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for altitude. Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5” w.c. for Natural Gas and 10.0” w.c. for LP gas at maximum input.) Refer to

Page 32 (RF only).

This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for use with other gases unless a certified kit is used.

Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization equipment or accessories, and repair and servicing of equipment shall be performed only by a qualified agency, preferably NFI or WETT (Canada) certified. The term “qualified agency” means any individual, firm, corporation, or company that either in person or through a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a) installation or replacement of gas piping, or (b), the connection, installation, repair, or servicing of equipment, who is experienced in such work, familiar with all precautions required, and has complied with all the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service agency. It is imperative that control compartments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The Stardance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Room Heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

‘Direct Vent’ describes a sealed combustion system in which incoming outside air for combustion and outgoing exhaust enter and exit through two separate concentric passages within the same sealed vent system. The system does not use room air to support combustion. The Direct Vent system permits the gas appliance to be vented directly to the outside atmosphere through the side of the house or vertically through the roof. Conventional venting systems (Natural Vent) take air from the room for combustion and vent the exhaust vertically through the roof to the atmosphere.

This appliance is approved for bedroom installations in the

U.S. and Canada.

This appliance may be installed in an aftermarket* manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by state or local codes.

20007065

WARNING: REMOVE THE GLASS PANEL BEFORE PERFORMING ANY GAS CONTROL SERVICE WORK.

SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

1. Spark ignitor will not light

A. Defective or misaligned electrode at the pilot

2. Pilot will not stay lit after carefully following the lighting instructions

3. Pilot lights, no gas to burner, valve knob

ON, remote switch

(rocker switch) ON

A. Remote switch or wires defective

4. Frequent pilot outage

20007065

B. Defective ignitor (push button)

A. Defective pilot generator (thermocouple)

B. Defective automatic valve operator

B. Thermopile may not generate sufficient voltage

C. Plugged burner orifice

D. Defective automatic valve operator

A. Pilot flame may be too low or high, (blowing or lifting), causing the pilot to drop out

B. Possible blockage of the vent terminal

Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and push the ignitor button again. If pilot will not light, check gap at electrode and pilot - it should be 1/8” to have a strong spark.

Push piezo ignitor button. Check for spark at electrode and pilot. If there is no spark at the pilot, and electrode wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.

Check pilot flame. It must impinge on the thermocouple or thermopile. NOTE: This pilot burner assembly uses both a thermocouple and a thermopile.

The thermocouple operates the pilot flame. Tighten the thermocouple. The thermopile operates the main valve (ON and OFF). Clean and/or adjust pilot for maximum flame impingement on thermocouple and thermopile.

Turn valve knob to ‘Pilot’. Maintain flow to pilot; millivolt meter should read greater than 10mV. If the reading is okay and the pilot does not stay on, replace the gas valve. NOTE: An interrupter block (not supplied) must be used to conduct this test.

Check rocker switch and wires for proper connection.

Use jumper wires across terminals at rocker switch.

If burner lights, replace rocker switch. If okay, use jumper wires across rocker switch wires at the valve; if burner lights, wires are faulty or connections are bad.

1. Be sure wire connections from thermopile at gas valve terminals are tight and thermopile is fully inserted into pilot bracket.

2. One of the rocker switch wires may be grounded.

Remove rocker switch wires from valve terminals.

If burner now stays lit, trace rocker switch wiring from ground. It may be grounded to the appliance or the gas supply line.

3. Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take reading at thermopile (“TP” and “TP/TH”) terminals of gas valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while holding valve knob depressed in PILOT position and with rocker switch OFF. Replace faulty thermopile if reading is below specified minimum.

Check burner orifices for debris, and remove.

Turn knob to ON, place rocker switch to ON, millivolt meter should read greater than 10 mV. If the reading is okay and the burner does not light, replace the valve.

Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame impingement on thermocouple and thermopile.

Check the vent terminal for blockage.

Logset and Burner /

Cleaning and Inspection

Cleanliness is critical to the proper function of the heater. The logset and burner must all be kept free of dust and unobstructed by debris. Inspect these areas before each use and clean as necessary.

1. Turn the burner OFF and let the heater cool completely before cleaning.

2. Lift the Stove Front up and then swing the bottom out to disengage it from the heater shell. (Fig. 64)

3. Carefully remove the glass and frame assembly and place it out of the way on a flat, padded surface such as a counter protected by a towel.

4. Carefully inspect the Logs for damage. Contact your local dealer if any damage is evident. DO NOT OP-

ERATE THE HEATER WITH DAMAGED LOGS.

5. Use a soft bristled brush to sweep dust or debris from the Logs, Pilot and Burner. Use care as the logs are fragile and susceptible to damage. DO NOT USE

A VACUUM TO CLEAN THE LOGS OR BURNER.

6. Replace the glass panel and frame assembly.

7. Replace the Stove Front.

WARNING: Allow the glass cool completely before attempting to clean.

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass.

It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia household cleaner and warm water (we recommend gas fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should be cleaned two or three times during each heating season depending on the circumstances present.

Clean glass after first two weeks of operation.

Glass Replacement

Replace glass only with CFM Corporation approved parts. Refer to Page 36 for Replacement Parts. Refer to

Figure 63 and previous instructions for removal of the damaged glass frame.

Care of Cast Iron

An occasional dusting with a dry rag will help keep the painted surfaces looking new. Use high-temperature stove paints, available through your local dealer, to touch-up areas as needed. Clean areas to be painted with a wire brush and be sure to cover the logs, burner and valve assembly, glass and frame assembly. Apply the paint sparingly; two light coats of paint will give better results than a single heavy coat.

Clean porcelain enamel surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. If necessary, use only a cleaning agent formulated especially for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.

Gasket Replacement

The Stardance Gas Heater uses a ‘tadpole’ type gasket to seal between the glass panel and the frame. In time, this gasket can become brittle and compressed and should be replaced. New gasket is available from your dealer.

Shut off the gas supply and allow the stove to cool.

Wear safety goggles and a dust mask.

1. Remove the Front, Glass Frame and Glass Panel.

(Figs. 63 & 64) Remove the old gasket. Use a

ST208 glass swivel latch

sary.

2. Determine the correct length of gasket by laying it out around the edge of the glass. Allow an extra 1

- 2” (25-50mm). Mark the spot to be cut. Use a utility knife.

3. Starting on a long edge, remove about 6” of the protective paper strip and apply the flat adhesive face of the gasket around the outside-facing edge of the panel. Continue around the panel, applying a bout 6” at a time and being careful to not stretch the material. Do not overlap the gasket ends. (Fig. 65)

4. Apply a thin bead of high temperature silicone rubber sealant along the inside corner of the glass frame, all around the perimeter. Place the flat gasketed side of the glass panel back into the steel frame. Pinch the rounded inside-facing gasket material to bulk it up.

5. Replace the glass frame and front panel as previously described.

Inspect the Vent System Annually

Have the vent system inspected annually by a qualified technician. Shut off the main gas supply before inspecting the system. Both the inner exhaust pipe and the outer combustion supply pipe must be checked to confirm that they are unblocked and in good condition.

Check the Gas Flame Regularly

To ensure that the stove is operating properly, check the flames periodically to confirm that they match Figure 64.

The flames will be blue during the first 15-20 minutes of operation, and will gradually turn to yellow after that.

Do not use your stove if the flame pattern differs from that shown here. Contact your Vermont Castings dealer or a qualified technician for help.

Stove Disassembly

If there is ever a need to remove the firebox assembly from the stove shell, support the firebox with solid stands about 6” (152mm) tall under the left and right outer edges of the firebox base. Do not set the firebox assembly directly on the floor; this can damage the control valve and/or the gas lines from the valve to the firebox.

Install logs 2

12/11/00 djt

Disconnection and reconnection to the gas line should only be done by a qualified gas service technician.

Upon reinstallation, the vent system must be sealed to the firebox as shown in the installation section, Page

14. Also be sure the logs are placed in the firebox correctly, as shown in Page 19, Figures 34 & 35.
