Your fireplace is approved for use with any
listed gas vent. A listed gas vent is a factory
made and listed system designed, and in-
stalled exclusively for removing products
of combustion, excess air, and dilution air
resultingfromburningfuelgas.Metalvents,
the most common type of vent, employ
double wall construction enclosing an insu-
lating air space. This air space both helps
keep flue gases warm and reduce heat trans-
ferred to nearby combustibles. This appli-
ance is equipped with a safety control sys-
tem designed to protect against improper
venting of combustion products.

• Oversized chimneys should be relined
with appropriate listed relining systems.
• Cleanout access may be required.
CHECKING VENT CAPACITY
Complete all gas piping, electrical, and vent
connections. After adjusting the fireplace
andlightingthemainburners,allowacouple
of minutes for warm-up. Hold a lighted
match just under the rim of the draft hood
relief opening. Proper venting will draw the
flame toward or into the draft hood. Im-
proper venting, indicated by escape or spill-
age of burned gas, will cause match to
flicker or go out. Smoke from a cigarette
will also be pulled into the draft hood if the
vent is drawing properly.

PROBLEMS
HIGH ALTITUDE
INSTALLATION
Most venting problems are caused by incor-
rect vent sizing, improper installation, or
inadequate air supply. A preliminary check
for a field problem might include:
Obstructions
YourVanguardB-ventfreestandingfireplace
heaterhasbeenAGAtestedandapprovedfor
elevations from 0-2000 feet and CGA certi-
fied for elevations from 0-4500 feet.
Smallanimalsorbirdsmaygetintoandblock
the vent or draft hood outlet. Dust, lint, and
foreign objects may obstruct air inlets. Re-
move obstructions and clean openings.
• Using a draft meter to determine if
venting system draft meets
manufacturer’s specifications
When installing this fireplace at an eleva-
tion above 2000 feet (in the USA), you may
need to decrease the input rating by chang-
ing 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 identifica-
tion and proper orifice for your location.
Lateral Run
• Checking the vent sizing according to
manufacturer’s specifications, appliance
input, and venting configuration
Lengthyhoizontalornon-verticalrunscause
resistance to flow and may reduce draft
• Examining the entire venting system for enough to cause spillage. The pitch of lat-
faults such as disconnected joints for eral runs can also be a problem; lateral runs
damaged vent sections
should be pitched 1/4" rise per foot of hori-
zontal run from the appliance to the vent.
• Making sure vent and air openings are
not obstructed
When installing this fireplace at an eleva-
tion above 4500 feet (in Canada), check
with local authorities.
Elbows
Iftheseproceduresdonotrevealthesourceof
the problem, troubleshooting may include
attention to common venting problems.
Too many elbows cause excessive restric-
tion of flow and may result in spillage.
Usually, two 90º turns can be tolerated in a
properly sized venting system. More than
two may cause problems and necessitate
changing the system.
For assistance with any high altitude instal-
lation contact DESA International’s Tech-
nical Service Department at 1-800-DESA-
LOG (1-800-337-2564).
FLUE GAS SPILLAGE
Spillage occurs when flue gases cannot exit
the vent system and back up into the dwell-
ing. A primary symptom of appliances
equipped with a Vent Safety Shutoff System
(flue spill switch) is unexplained appliance
shutoffs.Othersymptomsoffluegasspillage
at the draft hood include condensation on
walls and windows and/or noticeable odors.
Spillage may also result in the release of
carbonmonoxide,acolorless,odorless,highly
toxic gas. A simple spillage test can be con-
ducted if spillage is suspected. See Checking
Gas Connection, pages 13 and 14.
Negative Pressure in the
Dwelling
An extremely tight house may not supply
adequate combustion and venting air. Use
of mechanical exhaust such as a dryer vent
or range vent may worsen the problem. An
air exchange system must be installed in the
dwelling to correct this problem.
Flue Gas Cooling
Venting exposed to extremely cold tem-
peraturesorventingofsinglewallconstruc-
tion loses heat needed to maintain draft;
massive masonry chimneys absorb needed
heat. Ifthe flue gasescool excessively, draft
is reduced and spillage may result. Use
proper materials, insulate and protect prop-
erly, reline when necessary.
CAUSES OF SPILLAGE AND
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Incorrect Vent Sizing
If the vent is too small or too short, spillage
may occur. If the vent is too large, excessive
dilution air may cool flue gases and reduce
draft, causing spillage. The vent cap size
should also be checked. Check
manufacturer’s instructions, appliance in-
put rating, and appropriate sizing tables.

late the heat throughout the
house. In the event of a power
outage, you can use this heater
as your primary heat source.
Check your building codes for any special
requirements for locating manual shutoff
valve to fireplaces.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male
threads. This will prevent excess sealant
from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe
could result in clogged fireplace valves.

* AnA.G.A.design-certifiedmanualshutoff
valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable
alternative to test gauge connection. Pur-
chase the A.G.A. design-certified manual
shutoff valve from your dealer.
Install sediment trap/drip leg in supply line
as shown in Figure 26, page 13. Locate
sediment trap/drip leg where it is within
reach for cleaning. 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/
driplegisnotinstalledorisinstalledwrong,
fireplace may not run properly.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use proper gas type for the fireplace unit
you are installing. If you have conflicting
gastypes, donotinstallfireplace. Seedealer
whereyoupurchasedthefireplaceforproper
fireplace according to your gas type.
For propane/LP connections only, the in-
staller must supply an external regulator.
Theexternalregulatorwillreduceincoming
gas pressure. You must reduce incoming
gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches of
water. If you do not reduce incoming gas
pressure, heater regulator damage could
occur. Install external regulator with the
vent pointing down as shown in Figure 25.
Pointing the vent down protects it from
freezing rain or sleet.

WARNING: Turn off fireplace
and let cool before cleaning.
• Replace log(s) if broken. See Replace-
ment Parts on page 25.
CAUTION:Youmustkeepcon-
trol areas, burners, and circulat-

place before each use. Have fire-
place inspected yearly by a quali-

• Replace ember material periodically as
needed. See Replacement Parts on page 25.
CAUTION: Wear gloves and
safety glasses while handling or
removing broken glass. Do not
remove if glass is hot. Keep chil-
dren and pets away from glass.
VENTING SYSTEM
Conduct annual inspection of the venting
system following these guidelines:
If glass has been broken, carefully remove
glass door (see Removing/Replacing Glass
Door, page 16). Vacuum all glass pieces
with a shop vac.
1. Check areas of venting system that are
exposed to the weather for corrosion (rust
spots or streaks and, in extreme cases,
holes). Have these items replaced imme-
diately by a qualified service person.
GLASS DOOR
CAUTION: Do not vacuum if
pieces are hot.
2. Remove the vent cap and shine a
flashlight into the vent. Remove any
foreign material.
WARNING: Handle glass
door panel with care. Do not
strike, slam or otherwise abuse
glass. Do not operate fireplace
with the glass door removed,
cracked, or broken.
Use only the ceramic glass door replace-
ment intended for this fireplace (see Re-
placement Parts, page 25 for details on
ordering). No substitutions may be made.
See Removing/Replacing GlassDoor, page
16 for instructions for replacing glass door.
3. Check for evidence of excessive con-
densation. Continuous condensation
can cause corrosion of caps, pipes, and
fittings and can be caused by having
excessive lateral runs, too many el-
bows, or exterior portions of the sys-
tem being exposed to cold weather.
WARNING: Do not use abra-
sivecleanersasthismaydamage
glass. Use a non-abrasive house-
hold glass cleaner to clean glass.
Do not clean glass when hot.
WARNING: Do not operate
fireplace with the glass door re-
moved, cracked, or broken.
4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe sec-
tion or fitting has been disturbed and
loosened. Check mechanical supports
such as wall straps for rigidity.
Glass must be cleaned periodically. During
start-up it is normal for condensation to
form on the inside of the glass causing lint,
dust, and other airborne particles to cling to
the glass surface. During initial start-up a
slight film may form on the glass due to
paint curing. The glass should be cleaned
several times with a non-amonia, non-abra-
sive household cleaner and warm water
afterthefirsttwoweeksofoperation.There-
after, clean the glass two or three times
during each heating season, depending on
the usage and circumstances present. Refer
