PRODUCT FEATURES
These are a few facts that can help you understand and enjoy your direct vent fireplace:
• The venting system may be routed to the outside of your home in several ways. It may vent through the roof (vertical) or it may vent to an outside/exterior wall (horizontal). The vent pipe installation is very important to allow for proper operation. You must follow the venting instructions very carefully for either vertical or horizontal applications.
• This fireplace may be installed in any room of your house provided all local codes and these installation instructions are followed.
• Each time you turn on your fireplace, you may notice some amount of condensation on the inside of the fireplace glass. This is normal and will disappear after 10-20 minutes of operation.
• Your direct vent fireplace system (fireplace and venting) is a balanced and sealed combustion system. It requires approximately
10-20 minutes of operating time before the flame pattern stabilizes.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH OF
MASSACHUSETTS
These appliances are approved for installation in the U.S. state of
Massachusetts if the following additional requirements are met:
• Install this fireplace in accordance with Massachusetts Rules and Regulations 248 C.M.R. 4.00 through 8.00.
• Installation and repair must be done by a plumber or gas fitter licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• The flexible gas line connector used shall not exceed 36” (914 mm) in length.
• The individual manual shutoff must be a T-handle type valve.
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks around your fireplace with noncombustible material and wherever cold air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase cavity between studs and under floor on which fireplace rests, if floor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced fiberglass insulation. Caulk the firestop only where the pipe penetrates an outside wall, attic, or other unconditioned space.
NOTE:
Caulking used must have a minimum of 300°F continuous exposure rating.
Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, horizontal terminations installed less than seven (7) ft above the finished grade must comply with the following additional requirements:
• A hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up must be installed on the floor level where the gas fireplace is installed. The carbon monoxide detector must comply with NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL 2034 listed and be CSA certified.
• A metal or plastic identification plate must be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height of eight (8) ft above grade and be directly in line with the horizontal termination. The sign must read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, GAS VENT DIRECTLY
BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.
901080-00B
NOTE:
Do not use loose, or blown-in insulation in the cavity surrounding the fireplace.
If the fireplace is being installed on a cement slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or other raised platform can be placed underneath to prevent conduction of cold transferring to the fireplace and into the room. It also helps to sheetrock inside surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.

).
• Standoff spacers attached to your fireplace can be placed directly against the wall or framing material. See framing details,
Pages 12-15.
• When locating the termination cap, it is important to observe the minimum clearances shown in
Table 2, Page 17
.
• Do not recess the termination cap into a wall or siding.
• You may paint the termination cap with high temperature heat-resistant paint to coordinate with the exterior finish.
• There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the termination cap and the front of outside air vent.
• Do not locate the termination cap and outside air vent where excessive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to clear vent termination area after snow falls to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, do not direct snow towards vent termination area.

FRAMING AND FINISHING
IMPORTANT! Before you begin framing, determine whether you will be installing the fireplace as a one sided application or See-Thru application. If installing a TV above the fireplace, a HeatFlo Kit is required
(see Accessories, Page
53)
. Follow instructions included with the Kit and framing details in this manual.
The fireplace will come factory installed as a one sided appliance.
If you will be using the fireplace for a one sided regular application, you can install it as is. If you will be upgrading the fireplace to a
See-Thru application a conversion kit is required
(see Accessories,
Page 53
).
Follow instructions included with the Kit.
NOTE
: The optional Blower Kit is not compatible with the See-Thru Kit.
If the Blower Kit is installed, it must be removed or disabled when a
See-Thru Kit is installed.

Fireplace Framing
1. Frame the fireplace as illustrated in
Figures 4-9, Pages 12-15
.
All framing details must allow for a minimum clearances to combustible framing members as shown in
Table 1, Page 11
.
2. Mount the fireplace on the floor or on a fully supported base extending the full width and depth of the unit. If installed over combustible materials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, or combustible material other than wood flooring, the appliance must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the fireplace.
3. Headers may be in direct contact with the top of the nailing flange, maintaining the 11” clearance to the fireplace top, but must not be supported by them or notched to fit around them after self supporting
(see
Figure 4
)
. All construction above the fireplace must be self-supporting. DO NOT use the fireplace for structural support.
4.
All minimum clearances must be met. Vent pipe needs to maintain 1" clearance. Wood studs may be notched. Fireboard is provided for facing around the fireplace.
5. If you are using a separate combustible mantel piece, refer to
Figure 40, Page 34
for proper installation height.
NOTE: Fireplace is designed for 1/2” thickness of non-combustible fireboard on the face of the unit (Included with one sided application).
If installing a two sided application, the non-combustible fireboard will be included with the See-Thru kit, see accessories Page 53).

INSTALLING TELEVISION (TV) ABOVE FIREPLACE
The following section details two options for installing a television (TV) above Fireplace
IMPORTANT NOTICE
A HEATFLO KIT IS REQUIRED IF INSTALLING A TV ABOVE THE FIREPLACE.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Most television manufacturers instruct the homeowner to not place the television above a heat source. Doing so may negatively affect the longevity of the television and may negate the warranty. If you do place a television above the fireplace, please be aware of the large amount of heat generated by the fireplace and consider placing the television above the fireplace at 12” minimum on a flush wall and at 18" for a recessed installation, to reduce the amount of heat that reaches the television. The homeowner must understand that
IHP does not take responsibility for any negative impact to televisions placed near this fireplace.
TVs should not be used in situations where the actual TV temperature exceeds the manufacturer’s technical specification. Contact the TV manufacturer directly if you cannot locate this information or have questions regarding this information.
NOTE: Clearances to TV are provided only for guidance, please follow TV manufacturer's recommendation for installation.
WARNING
Ensure clearances to combustibles are maintained when building a mantel or shelves above the fireplace.
Elevated temperatures on the wall or in the air above the fireplace can cause melting, discoloration or damage to decorations, a television (TV) or other electronic components.
See Figures 5-9
for TVs Installed above the fireplace:
WIRING NOTE:
If running wiring into the enclosure, use thermal insulating wrap around the wiring. Secure the wiring to protect from contact with hot surfaces.
NOTE:
On a recessed wall pocket installation, discard fireboard nailing flange leaving fireplace top spacers and heatshield (see
Figure 8
)
.
Header may be in direct contact with the fireplace top spacers and heatshield maintaining the 7-1/2” clearance to the fireplace top.

NOTICE
VENTING INSTALLATION
Read these instructions completely before attempting installation.
These fireplaces are tested and approved for use with IHP 6DVL
Direct Vent Pipe components and terminations.
The venting system must terminate on the outside of the structure and can not be attached to a chimney or flue system serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. A direct vent appliance must have its own venting system. DO NOT common vent this appliance.
These models are approved to be vented either horizontally through an outside wall or vertically through a roof or chase enclosure using the following guidelines:
• When venting system terminates horizontally on an outside wall, you may install a standoff if the termination cap is to be installed directly on a combustible finish such as vinyl, wood, stucco, etc.
• Never run the vent downward as this may cause excessive temperatures which could cause a fire.
• Vent pipe air space clearances to combustibles are 1" on all sides except on the horizontal sections, which requires 3" clearance from the top of the pipe including horizontal terminal.
• Have fireplace and selected vent components on hand to help determine the exact measurements when elbowing or offsetting.
Always use wall firestops when penetrating walls and firestops when penetrating ceilings or attic spaces.
The following actions will void the warranty on your venting system:
• Installation of any damaged venting component
• Unauthorized modification of the venting system (Do not cut or alter vent components)
• Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved by INNOVATIVE HEARTH PRODUCTS
• Installation other than as instructed by these instructions
WARNING
This gas fireplace and vent assembly must be vented directly to the outside. The venting system must
NEVER be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use a separate vent system. Do not use common vent systems.
WARNING
Vent pipe air space clearances to combustibles are 1" on all sides except on horizontal sections, which require 3" clearances from the top of the pipe including the horizontal terminal. Where the
Vertical termination cap penetrates a combustible space, 1" air space clearance is required.
WARNING
Read all instructions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life.
NOTICE
Failure to follow these instructions will void the warranty.
NOTICE
Do not seal termination cap to vent pipe. Cap must be removable for vent inspection and maintenance.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection
• Use extreme caution when using ladders or when on roof tops
• Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings
VENT INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct vent installation:
• Horizontal Termination
• Vertical Termination
Horizontal Termination Installation
IMPORTANT:
Horizontal terminations require only inner portion of wall firestop.
1. Set fireplace in its desired location and determine the route your horizontal venting will take. Do not secure fireplace until all venting has been installed. Some installations require sliding fireplace in and out of position to make final venting connections.
Figures
15-16
on
Page 20
show different configurations for venting with horizontal termination that will help you decide which application best suits your installation. Check to see if wall studs or roof rafters are in the path of your desired venting route. If they are, you may want to adjust location of fireplace.
2. Direct vent pipe sections and components are designed with special twist-lock connections.
Twist-Lock Procedure:
Female ends of pipes have locking lugs
(indentations). These lugs will slide straight into matching slots on male ends of adjacent pipes. Push pipe sections together and twist one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn until sections are fully locked (see
Figure 12
,
Page 19
)
.
NOTE:
Horizontal vent must be sloped to 1/4” per foot rise from inlet to termination. Use non-combustible hanger straps (such as plumbers tape) to support horizontal sections every 4 feet.
Pipe must not sag.
3. Assemble desired combination of pipe and elbows to fireplace flue collar. If there are long portions of venting run, pre-assembled pipe sections may be installed as subassemblies for convenience.

901080-00B
WARNING
Do not recess vent termination into any wall. This will cause a fire hazard.

4. Carefully determine location where vent pipe assembly will penetrate outside wall. Mark center line of pipe on wall. Mark wall for a 13" x 11" square hole, where bottom of square starts 5-1/2" below center line of pipe
(see
Figure 13
).
This will provide the
3" minimum spacing needed on top of horizontal pipe. Cut and frame 13" x 11" rectangular hole in exterior wall where vent will be terminated. If wall being penetrated is constructed of noncombustible material, such as masonry block or concrete, a 9-1/2" hole with zero clearance is acceptable
(see
Figure 13
).
Male Slots
5.
Noncombustible Exterior Wall:
Position horizontal vent cap in center of the 9-1/2" round hole and attach to exterior wall with four fasteners. Before attaching vent cap to exterior wall, run a bead of non-hardening mastic (pliable sealant) around outside edges to make a seal between it and outside wall.
NOTE:
Use the appropriate type fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete or other types of sidings
(see
Figure 14
)
.
Combustible Exterior Wall:
A combustible siding standoff is required when terminating thru combustible siding materials.
For vinyl siding, stucco or wood exteriors, a siding standoff may be installed between the vent cap and the exterior wall. Siding standoff prevents excessive heat from damaging siding materials.
Siding material must be cut to accommodate standoff. Fasten vent cap to standoff. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of standoff. Position standoff/cap assembly over the 13" x
11" rectangular hole and attach to exterior wall with appropriate type fasteners for wall material
(see
Figure 15A
,
Page 20
).
Siding standoff must sit flush against exterior fascia material.
6.
Connecting Vent Cap with Horizontal Vent Pipe:
Slide wall firestop over vent pipe before connecting horizontal run to vent cap (see
Figure 15B
,
Page 20
)

.
1. Determine route your vertical venting will take. If ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct venting system, consider an offset
(see
Figure 21
)
to avoid cutting load bearing members.
NOTE:
Pay special attention to these installation instructions for required clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, etc. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Also note maximum vertical rise of venting system and any maximum horizontal offset limitations (see
Figures 17A
).
2. Set fireplace in desired location. Drop a plumb line down from ceiling to position of fireplace exit flue. Mark center point where vent will penetrate ceiling. Drill a small locating hole at this point.
3. Drop a plumb line from inside of roof to locating hole in ceiling. Mark center point where vent will penetrate roof. Drill a small locating hole at this point.

VENTING INSTALLATION
Continued
Flat Ceiling Installation
1. Cut an 11" square hole in ceiling using locating hole as a center point. Opening should be framed to 11"x 11" inside dimensions, as shown in
Figure 22
using framing lumber the same size as ceiling joists. If area above ceiling is an insulated ceiling or an attic, nail firestop from top side. This prevents loose insulation from falling into required clearance space. If area above ceiling is a living space, install firestop below framed hole. Firestop should be installed with no less than three nails per side (
see Figure 22
).
2. Assemble desired lengths of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from fireplace flue up through firestop. Be sure all pipe and elbow connections are fully twist-locked (
see Figure 12
,
Page 19
).
If area above is an attic or insulated area, install firestop above framed hole.
5. Place flashing over pipe section(s) extending through roof.
Secure base of flashing to roof and framing with roofing nails.
Be sure roofing material overlaps top edge of flashing as shown in
Figure 21
,
Page 22
. There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials.
6. Continue to add pipe sections until height of vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements described in
Table 2
on
Page 17
.
NOTE:
You must increase vent height for steep roof pitches. nearby trees, adjoining rooflines, steep pitched roofs and other similar factors may cause poor draft or down-drafting in high winds. Increasing vent height may solve this problem.
7. Twist-lock vent cap onto last section of vent pipe.
NOTE:
If vent pipe passes through any occupied areas above first floor, including storage spaces and closets, you must enclose pipe.
You may frame and sheetrock enclosure with standard construction material. Make sure and meet the minimum allowable clearances to combustibles. Do not fill any required air spaces with insulation.
Vertical Termination Configurations
If area above is a living space, install firestop below framed hole.

3. Cut a hole in the roof using locating hole as a center point. (Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof.) The
11"x 11" hole must be measured on the horizontal; actual length may be larger depending on pitch of roof. There must be a 1" clearance from vent pipe to combustible materials. Frame opening as shown in
Figure 22
.
4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through hole.
NOTE
:
If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must support vent pipe every 3 feet. Use wall straps for this purpose
(see
Figure 21
,
Page 22
).
Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction to the flow of flue gases.

HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATION
Your IHP direct vent fireplace has been tested and approved for elevations from 0-2000 feet in the USA.
When installing a fireplace at an elevation above 2000 feet, you may need to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Reduce input 4% for each 1000 feet above sea level. Check with your local gas company for proper orifice size identification.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4500 feet, check with local authorities.
In Canada, this fireplace does not require input reduction up to 4500 feet (1370m) above see level. Please consult with provincial and/or local authorities having jurisdiction for installations above 4500 ft
(1370m) or contact IHP through your dealer.
* If heating value of gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply.
Check with your local gas supplier.

CHECK GAS TYPE
Use proper gas type for the fireplace unit you are installing. If you have conflicting gas types, do not install fireplace. See retailer where you purchased the fireplace for proper fireplace according to your gas type or conversion kit.
INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO FIREPLACE LOCATION
WARNING
FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
A qualified service person must connect fireplace to gas supply. Follow all local codes.
NOTE:
When setting/measuring gas pressure, make sure the pressure is measured with operating at maximum setting. If other appliances are connected to the same supply line, have them operating at max setting also. If the supply line and regulator is sized correctly, the difference between the inlet pressure when fireplace is OFF and
ON at max will be within 1 to 2 inches of WC.
IHP recommends and inlet pressure of the following to the appliance:
For NG 5.5" to 7.0" of WC
For LP 11.0 " to 12.0" of WC
CAUTION
For propane/LP units, never connect fireplace directly to the propane/LP supply. This heater requires an external regulator (not supplied). Install the external regulator between the fireplace and propane/LP supply.
CAUTION
Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internallytinned copper tubing may be used in certain areas.
Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas volume to fireplace.
If pipe is too small, undue loss of volume will occur.
WARNING
Never connect this appliance to private (nonutility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas and does not have odorants and may have impurities, and variations in BTU content. The use of well-head gas will void the manufacturer’s warranty to this appliance.
Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve, union and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from fireplace (
see Figure
27A, Page 28
).
IMPORTANT:
Install main gas valve (equipment shutoff valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the appliance.

Installation Items Needed
Before installing fireplace, 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 connector (if allowed by local codes)
* An equipment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the equipment shutoff valve from your retailer.
For propane/LP connection only, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure.
You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11" and 14" of w.c. pressure. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure, fireplace regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in
Figure 26
. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.
Figure 26 - External Regulator with Vent Pointing Down
(Propane/LP Only)
Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating equipment shutoff valve to fireplaces.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged fireplace valves.

NOTE:
Ensure the CPI/IPI switch is set to intermittent mode with the pilot in the OFF position. See control compartment door label for more information.
NOTE:
A seidment trap is recommended in the gas piping within the home to prevent moisture and debris in the line from damaging the valve.
NOTE:
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane resistant compounds are used in propane applications). Seal around the gas line to prevent cold air leakage. Gas line holes and other openings can be caulked or stuffed with unfaced fiberglass insulation.
These fireplaces are equipped with a gas flex line for use (where permitted) in connecting the unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is provided to aid in attaching the direct-vent fireplace to the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be used where local codes permit. The flex line is rated for both natural and propane gas. A manual shut off valve is also provided with the flex line.
The gas control valve is located in the lower control compartment
(
Figure 43, Page 39
).

Figure 27B - Gas Line Connection
NOTICE
The gas line and connectors in the fireplace is rated for both natural gas and propane.
For ease of installation and servicing, IHP recommends the use of
“union coupler” before connecting to the fireplace.
WARNING
Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.
We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg in supply line as shown in
Figure 27A
. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and fireplace. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into fireplace gas controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.
CONNECTING FIREPLACE TO GAS SUPPLY
Connect the Gas Line
All codes require a shutoff valve mounted in the supply line. The flex-line method is acceptable in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements vary depending on locality. Installation must be in compliance with local codes.

Flame Appearance and Sooting
The flame should be blue at the base, and yellow-orange in the body of the flame.
When the fireplace is first lit, the entire flame may be blue and will gradually turn yellow-orange during the first 30 minutes of operation. If the flame remains blue, or if the flame is orange with evidence of sooting (black tip), the air shutter opening may need to be adjusted.
If the air shutter opening is closed too far, sooting may develop.
Sooting is indicated by black puffs developing at the tips of very long orange flames. Sooting results in black deposits forming on the fireplace inside surfaces and on exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent termination.
Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter opening. To achieve a warm yellow-orange flame with an orange body that does not soot, the shutter opening must be adjusted between these two extremes.
Air Shutter Adjustment Guidelines
• If there is smoke or soot present, first ensure that the flames are not impinging on any of the panels or interior media options. If the panels or interior media options are properly positioned and a sooting condition still exists, increase the air shutter opening.
• The more offsets in the vent system, the wider the air shutter will need to be opened.
• The length and configuration of the chimney vent will affect flame appearance.
• A fireplace operated with the air shutter opened too far may have flames that appear blue and transparent.
• Propane models may exhibit flames that candle or appear stringy. If this condition is present and persists, adjust the air shutter to a more open position, then operate the fireplace for a few more minutes to ensure that the flame normalizes and the flames do not appear sooty.

Finishing Materials
When finishing the wall around the fireplace, it is critical that wall sheathing be fastened properly.
Table 7 - Do's and Don'ts
WARNING
Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxiation!
DO NOT use screws longer than the ones supplied
(1" long, self tapping, countersunk head) while attaching non-combustible board to fireplace/ framing may penetrate gas line or damage valve or electrical components.
To Reduce the Risk of Sheetrock Cracking: DO
Use all purpose joint compound.
Use 100% acrylic latex paint.
To Avoid Sheetrock Cracking: DO NOT
Use a quick set or light weight joint compound.
Use flat paint.
If a crack does emerge adjacent the fireplace, it can be permanently repaired by filling it with paintable latex caulk, followed by repainting.
The appliance is designed to mate with 1/2 in. wall sheathing materials such as drywall, plywood, wood composites, or noncombustible materials.
Finishing and Sealing Joints
All joints between the finished wall sheathing and the appliance must be sealed with non-combustible materials. Sealants, such as caulk or mastic used to seal the gap between the wall and the fireplace, should be rated at a minimum continuous exposure to 300 ºF.
Finishing Around Opening with Gypsum Wallboard
Gypsum wallboard (drywall) joints adjacent to the fireplace opening, including the non-combustible board on the appliance, require special attention to minimize cracking. When installing gypsum wallboard around the fireplace, install the hole for the fireplace opening in a single wallboard sheet, if possible. This will minimize the joints adjacent to the fireplace opening.
Tape wall board joints around the fireplace opening with fiberglassmesh tape. It will provide a more crack-resistant joint than paper tape. Fill, smooth and finish wall joints with chemically setting-type joint compound. It will provide a more crack-resistant joint than air-drying light-weight compound.
Painting
If desired finishing includes a painted wall, 100% acrylic latex with compatible primer is recommended around this appliance. Oil-based or standard acrylic paints may dis-color due to heat exposure.
In extreme cases, lab tests have shown yellow pigments fading out of paints over time due to heat. Vent run and installation location will have an effect on wall temperature and fading. If fading occurs, consider avoiding paint that contains yellow pigment.
In regards to the sheetrock mud, apply a smooth, even layer, covering a wide area of the wall for the best results. For best results, see
Table 7
,
Page 36
.
WARNING
Risk of Fire!
DO NOT apply combustible materials beyond the minimum clearances. Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified in this manual. Overlapping materials could ignite and will interfere with proper operation of doors and louvers.
WARNING
Risk of Fire!
DO NOT install drywall or other combustible materials directly onto the installed noncombustible board.
Facing Material
• Facing and/or finishing materials must not interfere with air flow through louvers or decorative fronts.
• Facing and/or finishing materials must never overhang into the glass opening.
• Observe all clearances when applying combustible materials.

OPERATION
NOTE:
Do not place furniture or other combustible materials within
36” of the front of viewing area(s).
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers, young children and others may be susceptible to accidental contact burns. A physical barrier is recommended if there are at-risk individuals in the house. To restrict access to a fireplace or stove, install an adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children and other at-risk individuals out of the room and away from hot surfaces.
NOTE:
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
NOTE:
Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected before use and at least annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning might be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, et cetera. It is imperative that control compartments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
NOTE:
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.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING:
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Turn off the gas supply to the appliance and have it serviced by a qualified professional, as it may not be operating correctly. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others, including pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.

Burn-in Period
The first few times this fireplace is operated, there will be an odor from the curing of paint and the burning off of the lubricants used in the manufacturing process. Depending on usage, the burn-in period may take a few hours or a few days.
NOTE:
Ventilate the site during the burn-in period. The resulting odor and haze may set off a smoke detector. Do not operate the blower during the burn-in period.
A white film may develop on the glass front during the first few fires as part of the burn-in period. The glass should be kept clean during the burn-in period to prevent the film from baking on—making it very difficult to remove (

(
Figure 43B
)
.
2. Set the unit-mounted switch, or wall switch to the ON
Position
(
Figure 43B
)
.
3. The unit should spark at the pilot and light.
NOTE:
If there is no spark, replace the batteries.
4. Operate the fireplace normally.
NOTE:
Install new batteries (4 AA) in the battery holder before the burn season
(
Figure 43B
)
. Then, the fireplace can automatically switch to battery power in the event of a power outage.
NOTE:

IPI/CPI Switch
Continuous Pilot Ignition Switch
This appliance has the option to change from an electronic intermittent pilot ignition (IPI) to a standing pilot (Continuous
Pilot) for cold climates. The control switch (standing pilot) is located underneath the access cover close to the Proflame Control
Module. Using your finger, flip the switch ON for standing pilot or
OFF for intermittent pilot ignition. Turning the CPI switch on will allow the pilot flame to burn continuously. This mode will minimize the condensation which forms on the inside of the glass when the main burner is first turned on. It will also help the appliance and vent system stabilize more quickly during the colder months.
During the warmer winter and summer months, the CPI switch can be turned off to minimize fuel consumption.

Burn-in Period
, and then only when necessary and when the fireplace is cool. Wipe the surface with a clean, dampened, soft cloth. Follow with a dry, soft towel as desired. Take care not to scratch the surface. Periodically, remove any build-up caused by the following:
• During start-up, it is normal for condensation to form on the inside of the glass (this condensation and fog will usually disappear in a few minutes). The moisture can cause lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
• Initial curing of the high temperature paint and burning off of lubricants used in the manufacturing process may result in a film on the glass.
• A white coating may form on the glass as a result of impurities and minerals in the fuel.
Clean the glass two or three times each heating season, depending on the circumstances present. The following cleaning solutions are approved for use:
• Non-ammonia based glass cleaner
• Gas fireplace/stove glass cleaner
Inspecting the glass gasket
Visually inspect the gasket on the backside of the glass door. The gasket surface must be clean, free of irregularities, and seated firmly.
Cleaning the control compartment
Keep the control compartment clean by vacuuming or brushing it out at least twice a year. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, et cetera. It is imperative that control compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
Touching up paint in small areas
Only use a factory-supplied paint kit for any touch-ups. Paint is available at your local IHP dealer. Never attempt to paint a hot fireplace. Do not attempt to repaint the fireplace until the finish is completely cured (
Burn-in Period on
Page 39
)
. If the surface becomes stained or marred, it may be lightly sanded and touched up. Allow 24 hours for the paint to cure at room temperature before turning on the flame.
