Attention

The Radiance stove is shipped from the factory as a Direct Vent Gas Heater. This heater may be converted

into a Natural Vent unit in the ﬁeld. If a Natural Vent Heater is desired, the Vermont Castings Z31D00 FSD-

HAG Draft Hood must be directly installed to the top of the unit according to the installation instructions.

The Draft Hood Adapter is available in the 7FSDHASK stove kit or as a separate item.

When the Radiance stove is converted to Natural Vent, it uses 4” vent pipe. For aesthetic purposes the CFM

direct vent system may be used up to the ceiling.

WARNING: Due to high temperatures, the HEATER

should be located out of trafﬁc and away from furni-

ture and draperies.

Fig. 2 Possible stove locations.

The surface of the Heater Is hot when it is in use.

Young children should be watched carefully when

they are in the same room when the Heater is in

use, and they should be taught to avoid the hot

surface. Keep any objects that can burn well away

from the Heater, and observe the recommended

clearances that follow.

Clearance Requirements

Minimum Clearances to Combustible Materials

Measure side clearances as shown in Figures 3, 4 and

5 from the outer edge of the cast iron stove top. Mea-

sure rear clearances from the outermost surface of the

steel rear skirt.

Locating The Stove

The Radiance heater is approved for installation into

an alcove constructed of combustible materials to the

dimensions and clearances shown on the next page.

In choosing a location for the stove, consider:

• The location of outside walls;

The same clearances apply in a standard parallel instal-

lation.

• Where additional heat is needed:

• Where family members gather most often;

• The vent system requirements.

NOTE: We do not recommend the use of wallpaper

next to this stove. Over time, radiant heat may cause

the wallpaper to shrink, or may adversely affect the

binders in the wallpaper adhesive.

WARNING:

• Always maintain required clearances

(air spaces) to nearby combustibles

to prevent ﬁre hazard. Do not ﬁll air

spaces with insulation. All venting components

must maintain a 1” (25mm) clearance to com-

bustible materials. Maintain a 6” (150mm) clear-

ance when using single wall pipe.

• The gas appliance and vent system must be

vented directly to the outside of the building

and never be attached to a chimney serving a

separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance.

• Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions includ-

ed with the venting system for complete instal-

lation procedures.

Vertical Termination - Direct Vent ONLY

Vent Termination Clearances

A vertical vent system must terminate no less than 8’

(2.44m) and no more than 40’ (12m) above the appli-

ance ﬂue collar. A 2¹⁄₄" restrictor plate (supplied) must

be used, where speciﬁed, in all vertically terminated

vent systems. (Refer to Figure 8) NOTE: The restrictor

plate supplied with the vertical termination should

be discarded. Install restrictor plate supplied with

stove directly at stove outlet. A vertically terminated

vent system must also conform to the following criteria:

When planning the installation, consider the location

of the vent terminal and clearances. Some of the most

common clearances to keep in mind are shown in Figure 9.

Important: All vent clearances must be maintained.

Check your vent termination clearances against

Figures 9 through 11.

The vent should be placed so that people cannot be

burned by accidentally touching the vent surfaces when

the stove is operating.

• No more than three 90° elbows may be used.

• Two 45° elbows may be substituted for one 90˚

elbow. No more than six 45° elbows may be used.

The vent termination should be located where it cannot

be damaged by such things as automobile doors, lawn

mowers or snowblowers and it should be located away

from areas where it could become blocked by snow,

etc.

• Vent must rise a minimum of 2 feet before offset is

used.

• Termination height must conform to roof clearance

as speciﬁed in Figure 9.

Some considerations are:

• Obstructions or impediments to venting.

��

• Nearby combustible materials that could come into

contact with combustion exhaust gases.

��

All Vertical Termi-

nations in this area

Require use of

the 2¹⁄₄” Restrictor

��

• Other nearby openings {within 12” (305 mm)}

through which exhaust gas could reenter the build-

ing.

��

Plate*

• All vegetation within 3’ (76 mm) that may interfere

with the draft.

��

Other factors that inﬂuence where the installation will

be sited include the location of outside walls, where

additional heat may be desired in the home, where the

family members gather most regularly, and perhaps

most importantly, the distance limitations of the venting

system.

Radiance Direct Vent /Natural Vent Gas Heater

Vent Termination Clearances

Your stove is approved to be vented either through the

side wall, or vertical through the roof.

There must not be any obstruction such as bushes,

garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within

24” from the front of the termination hood.

• CFM Corporation does not require any opening

for inspection of vent pipe.

Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow

or ice build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termi-

nation area after snow falls, and clear to prevent ac-

cidental blockage of venting system. When using snow

blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent

termination area.

• Only CFM Corporation and Simpson DuraVent

venting components speciﬁcally approved and

labelled for this stove may be used.

• Minimum clearances between vent pipes and

combustible materials is one (1”) inch (25 mm),

except where stated otherwise.

Location of Vent Termination

It is imperative the vent termination be located observ-

ing the minimum clearances as shown on this page.

• Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or

siding.

• Horizontal venting must be installed on a level plane

without an inclining or declining slope.

WARNING

This appliance is equipped with a three-prong

(grounded) plug for your protection against shock

hazard and should be plugged directly into a

properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not

cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

Install the Optional Fan

If you are installing the optional convection Fan Kit

#2767 (FK26), continue here. It is easiest to install fan

kit before connecting gas line. If you are not installing a

Fan Kit, go to Page 15, Venting System Assembly.

1. The fan kit includes a Blower Assembly and a Rheo-

stat Assembly, connected by a cable. (Fig. 14) The

Blower Assembly mounts to the bottom rear of the

stove, and the Rheostat mounts to the valve cover-

plate. The assembly includes a ‘snapstat’ which au-

tomatically turns the fan On (or Off) above (or below)

approximately 109˚. The Rheostat also provides a

range of fan speed settings from Off (which overrides

the snapstat function) to High. Unpack and inspect

the Blower assembly. Conﬁrm that the fan spins

freely.

Troubleshooting / Honeywell #8420 Gas Control System

NOTE: Before troubleshooting the gas control system, be sure the external gas shutoff is in the “ON” position.

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

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.

B. Defective ignitor (push but-

ton)

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.

A. Defective pilot generator

(thermocouple)

Check pilot ﬂame. It must impinge on the thermocouple

or thermopile. NOTE: This pilot burner assembly uses

both a thermocouple and a thermopile. The thermocou-

ple operates the pilot ﬂame. Tighten the thermocouple.

The thermopile operates the main valve (ON and OFF).

Clean and/or adjust pilot for maximum ﬂame impinge-

ment on thermocouple and thermopile.

2. Pilot will not stay lit

after carefully fol-

lowing the lighting

instructions

B. Defective automatic valve

operator

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.

A. Remote switch or wires

defective

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.

3. Pilot lights, no gas

to burner, valve

knob ON, remote

switch (rocker

switch) ON

B. Thermopile may not gener-

ate sufﬁcient voltage

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 read-

ing at thermopile (“TP” and “TP/TH”) terminals of gas

valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while hold-

ing valve knob depressed in PILOT position and with

rocker switch OFF. Replace faulty thermopile if reading

is below speciﬁed minimum.

C. Plugged burner oriﬁce

Check burner oriﬁces for debris, and remove.

D. Defective automatic valve

operator

Turn knob to ON, place rocker switch to ON, millivolt me-

ter should read greater than 10 mV. If the reading is okay

and the burner does not light, replace the valve.

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

4. Frequent pilot out-

age

Clean and/or adjust pilot ﬂame for maximum ﬂame im-

pingement on thermocouple and thermopile.

Check the vent terminal for blockage.

7. If the manual switch is in the LOCAL position, the

valve will be at the highest ﬁxed pressure setting

and the fan will be at the highest ﬁxed speed. The

transmitter will control the fan only.

Instructions for RF Comfort Control Valve

The Comfort Control valve allows remote control of

temperature, fan and ﬂame appearance.

NOTE: The antenna should hang in free air away from

grounded metal.

Shut Off Procedure

If the manual switch is in the REMOTE position, the

transmitter can shut off the main burner and fan. How-

ever, the control is still on and a command from the

transmitter can turn on the main burner or fan.

Operation

1. If the manual switch is in remote position, switch it to

LOCAL. (Fig. 49)

2. Turn the pilotstat knob counterclockwise from OFF

to the PILOT position, push the knob down, and hold

in position. The pilot valve opens and allows gas to

ﬂow to the pilot burner.

To shut off the system, turn the pilotstat knob clockwise

to the OFF position. This action closes the main gas

and safety valves. The transmitter cannot turn on the

main burner or fan.

3. Push plunger on the piezo until the pilot burner is lit.

When the pilot burner is lit, the LED on the control

will come on after approximately 40 seconds and

will provide 1 short blink continuously in the normal

mode. When the light turns off which will be approxi-

mately 10 seconds after it has been continuously

red, the receiver/valve is fully powered.

Transmitter Operation

Off Mode

In the OFF mode, the ﬁreplace ﬂame and fan are

off, the display will show OFF and displays the room

temperature. If the receiver is in REMOTE mode, the

ﬁreplace will shut off.

Radiance Direct Vent /Natural Vent Gas Heater

Maintenance

Your Radiance Gas Heater will provide years of service

with minimal upkeep. The following procedures will help

ensure that your stove continues to function properly.

CAUTION

TURN THE PILOT OFF BEFORE PAINTING.

ALLOW THE HEATER TO COOL COMPLETELY

BEFORE PAINTING.

Annual System Inspection

Have the entire heater and venting system inspected

annually by a qualiﬁed gas technician. Replace any

worn or broken parts.

Cleaning the Glass

WARNING: Allow the glass cool completely before

attempting to clean.

Logset and Burner /

Cleaning and Inspection

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. Dur-

ing 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 depend-

ing on the circumstances present.

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 com-

pletely before cleaning.

2. Lift the Stove Front up and then swing the bottom

out to disengage it from the heater shell. (Fig. 62)

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.

Clean glass after ﬁrst two weeks of opera-

tion.

4. Carefully inspect the Logs for damage. Contact your

local dealer if any damage is evident.

Glass Replacement

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.

Replace glass only with CFM Corporation approved

parts. Refer to Page 35 for Replacement Parts. Refer to

Figure 63 and previous instructions for removal of the

damaged glass frame.

6. Replace the glass panel and frame assembly.

7. Replace the Stove Front.

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 bet-

ter results than a single heavy coat.

Clean porcelain enamel surfaces with a soft, damp

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. If neces-

sary, use only a cleaning agent formulated especially

for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.

Radiance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Gas Heater

ST179

Fig. 64 Wrap the gasket material around the outside edge of

the glass.

ST141

Inspect the Vent System Annually

Fig. 63 Release the latches to remove the glass frame.

Have the vent system inspected annually by a quali-

ﬁed 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.

Gasket Replacement

The Radiance 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.

Check the Gas Flame Regularly

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

Wear safety goggles and a dust mask.

To ensure that the stove is operating properly, check

the ﬂames periodically to conﬁrm that they match

Figure 65. The ﬂames will be blue during the ﬁrst 15-20

minutes of operation, and will gradually turn to yellow

after that.

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

(Figs. 62 & 63) Remove the old gasket. Use a

razor blade to separate the glass and gasket from

the frame, and to clean the glass of any remaining

cement or bits of gasket. Use a cold chisel if neces-

sary.

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.

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 pro-

tective 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 mate-

rial. Do not overlap the gasket ends. (Fig. 64)

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 mate-

rial to bulk it up.

5. Replace the glass frame and front panel as previ-

ously described.

FK26 Fan

An optional screen, R40SK, for use with the operable

doors is available to allow the doors to be left in the

open position.

The FK26 fan helps distribute heated air from within

the ﬁrebox out into the room. The fan is controlled by a

snapstat that turns power on and off as the ﬁrebox tem-

perature rises above and falls below a preset tempera-

ture. A rheostat provides for variable fan speeds.

Warming Shelf

Warming shelves add versatility to your stove; they can

be used to keep foods warm at mealtime.
