D. High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved without
requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 feet in the
U.S.A. and Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 ft,
it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input rate
should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 ft above a 2000 ft
elevation in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations between 2000
and 4500 ft in Canada. If the heating value of the gas has
been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 ft (in
Canada), check with local authorities.
WARNING
Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been
under water.
Note: This installation must conform with local codes. In the
absence of local codes you must comply with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition in the U.S.A.
and the CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes in Canada.

Getting Started
A. Design and Installation Considerations
These appliances must be installed outdoors.
The Dakota 42-B Series outdoor gas fireplace is designed
for outdoor use. It may also be installed in screened porches
and lanais that meet these minimum requirements:
• Minimum porch area - 96 square feet
• Minimum ceiling height - 84 in.
A minimum of two walls can be screened but must be open
to outside ventilation.
•
•
Minimum screen area - 64 square feet
Minimum screen top height - 80 in.
Refer to Section 3.B. for clearances.
CAUTION
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional,
state and national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building, fire
officials or authorities having jurisdiction about
restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.
When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to
determine the following information before installing:
•
•
•
•
Where the appliance is to be installed.
Gas supply piping.
Electrical wiring.
Framing and finishing details.
Moisture Resistance:
This outdoor fireplace will shed moderate amounts of water,
but is not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor
may enter the chase under certain conditions.
The fireplace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture
penetration must be considered for construction that places
the fireplace in structure walls or on moisture sensitive surfaces.
When installed on exterior walls: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the fireplace chase be constructed outside the structure’s weather envelope. Where
the platform meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to
that required for attached decks. Chase platforms, including
hearths should slope away from the structure at 1/8 in. to
1/4 in. per foot. The fireplace can be shimmed level.
When installed on surfaces where water may collect or
cause damage: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends
that a drainage pan be placed under the unit. This can be
constructed of metal, adhesive polymer membrane (such as
ice and water shield) or other suitable materials. A means of
drainage out of the pan such as tubes or weep holes should
be provided. A slope of 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot towards
the drain port is suggested. The fireplace can be shimmed
level.
Hearths should slope away from the front of the fireplace
and chase at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. Spark strips must be
on top of any combustible hearth materials used for moisture
management.
Outdoor Lifestyles by Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. • Dakota 42-B/Dakota 42H-B • 4036-909 • Rev L 10/09 B. Tools and Supplies Needed

D. Frequently Asked Questions
Issue
22
Solutions
Condensation on the glass
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms, this condensation will
disappear.
Blue flames
This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the appliance is allowed to burn for 20 to
40 minutes.
Odor from appliance
When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused by the curing of
the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Film on the glass
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of
initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas
fireplace glass cleaner may be necessary. See your dealer.
Metallic noise
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced
by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of the fireplace.
Is it normal to see the pilot
flame burn continually?
In an Intellifire ignition system it is normal to see the pilot flame, but it should turn off when ON/OFF is turned off.
In a standing pilot system the pilot will always stay on.

Troubleshooting
With proper installation, operation and maintenance your gas appliance will provide years of trouble-free service. If you do
experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist a qualified service person in the diagnosis of a problem and the
corrective action to be taken. This troubleshooting guide can only be used by a qualified service technician.
A. Intellifire Ignition System
Symptom
1.
2.
3.
4.
The ignitor/module makes
noise, but no spark.
Pilots won’t light, there is
no noise or spark.
Pilot lights but continues
to spark, and main burner
will not ignite. (If the pilot
continues to spark after
the pilot flame has been
lit, flame rectification has
not occurred.)
Pilot sparks, but pilot will
not light.
Possible Causes
Corrective Actions
A.
Incorrect wiring.
Verify “S” wire (white) for sensor and “I” wire (orange) for ignitor are connected to the
correct terminals on the module and the pilot assembly. Reversed wires at the module
may cause the system to make a sparking noise, but the spark may not be present at
pilot hood.
B.
Loose connections or
electrical shorts in the
wiring.
Verify there are no loose connections or electrical shorts in wiring from module to
pilot assembly. The rod closest to the pilot hood should be ignitor. Verify connections
underneath pilot assembly are tight; also verify the connections are not grounding out
to the metal chassis, pilot burner, pilot enclosure, mesh screen if present, or any other
metal object.
C.
Ignitor gap is too large.
Verify gap of ignitor to pilot hood. The gap should be approximately .17 in. or 1/8 in.
D.
Faulty module.
Turn ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch to OFF position. Remove ignitor wire “I”
from module. Place ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch in ON position. Hold ground
wire about 3/16 in. away from “I” terminal on module. If there is no spark at “I” terminal,
module must be replaced. If there is a spark at “I” terminal, module is fine. Inspect pilot
assembly for shorted sparker wire or cracked insulator around electrode.
A.
Transformer installed
incorrectly.
Verify that transformer is installed and plugged into module. Check voltage of
transformer under load at space connection on module with ON/OFF switch in ON
position. Acceptable readings of a good transformer are between 3.2 and 2.8 volts AC.
B.
A shorted or loose
connection in wiring
configuration or wiring
harness.
Remove and reinstall the wiring harness that plugs into module. Verify there is a tight
fit. Verify pilot assembly wiring to module. Remove and verify continuity of each wire in
wiring harness.
C.
Improper wall switch
wiring.
Verify wall switch is wired correctly.
D.
Module not grounded.
Verify black ground wire from module wire harness is grounded to metal chassis of
appliance.
E.
Faulty module.
Turn ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch to OFF position. Remove ignitor wire “I”
from module. Place ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch in ON position. Hold ground
wire about 3/16 in. away from “I” terminal on module. If there is no spark at “I” terminal
module must be replaced. If there is a spark at “I” terminal, module is fine. Inspect pilot
assembly for shorted sparker wire or cracked insulator around electrode.
A.
A shorted or loose
connection in sensor rod.
Verify all connections to wiring diagram in manual. Verify connections underneath pilot
assembly are tight. Verify connections are not grounding out to metal chassis, pilot
burner, pilot enclosure or screen if present, or any other metal object.
B.
Poor flame rectification or
contaminated sensor rod.
Verify flame is engulfing sensor rod. If the pilot assembly does not have a ground
strap, consider installing one to increase flame rectification. Verify correct pilot orifice
is installed and inlet gas specifications are met. Flame carries rectification current, not
the gas. If flame lifts from pilot hood, the circuit is broken. A wrong orifice or too high
an inlet pressure can cause pilot flame to lift. The sensor rod may be contaminated.
Clean sensor rod with emery cloth.
C.
Module is not grounded.
Verify that module is securely grounded to metal chassis of appliance. Verify that the
wire harness is firmly connected to module.
D.
Damaged pilot assembly
or dirty sensor rod.
Verify that ceramic insulator around the sensor rod is not cracked, damaged, or loose.
Verify connection from sensor rod to white sensor wire. Clean sensor rod with emery
cloth to remove any contaminants that may have accumulated on sensor rod. Verify
continuity with a multimeter with ohms set at lowest range.
E.
Faulty module.
Turn ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch to OFF position. Remove ignitor wire “I”
from module. Place ON/OFF rocker switch or wall switch in ON position. Hold ground
wire about 3/16 in. away from “I” terminal on module. If there is no spark at “I”
terminal, module must be replaced. If there is a spark at “I” terminal, module is fine.
Inspect pilot assembly for shorted sparker wire or cracked insulator around electrode.
A.
Correct gas supply.
Verify that incoming gas line ball valve is “open”. Verify that inlet pressure reading is
within acceptable limits, inlet pressure must not exceed 14 in. w.c.
B.
Ignitor gap is too large.
Verify that spark gap from ignitor to pilot hood is .17 in. or 1/8 in.
C.
Module is not grounded.
Verify module is securely grounded to metal chassis of appliance.
D.
Module voltage output/
valve/pilot solenoid ohms

components. This warranty is subject to conditions, exclusions and limitations as described below.
WARRANTY PERIOD:
The warranty period runs for one year, beginning on the earlier of: (i) the date of invoice for the Product;

distributor. A list of HHT authorized dealers is available on the HHT branded websites.
• This warranty is only valid while the Product remains at the site of original installation.
• Contact your installing dealer for warranty service. If the installing dealer is unable to provide

period. These parts include: paint, firebricks, grates, flame guides and the discoloration of glass.
