This gas appliance should be installed by a qualified installer  
in accordance with local building codes and with current CSA-  
B149.1 Installation codes for Gas Burning Appliances and  
Equipment. If the unit is being installed in a mobile home, the  
installation should comply with the current CAN/CSA Z 240.4  
code. For U.S.A Installations follow local codes and/or the  
current National Fuel Gas Code. ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.  
FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION  
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:  
1 . This fireplace gives off high temperatures and should be  
located out of high traffic areas and away from furniture  
and draperies.  
2. Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of  
the high surface temperatures of this fireplace and should  
stay away to avoid burns or ignition of clothing.  
3. Children should be carefully supervised when in the same  
room as your fireplace.  
4. Under no circumstances should this fireplace be modified.  
Parts removed for servicing should be replaced prior to  
operating this fireplace again.  
5. Installation and any repairs to this fireplace must be  
performed by a qualified installer, service agency or gas  
supplier. A professional service person should be con-  
tacted to inspect this fireplace annually. Make it a practice  
to have all of your gas fireplaces checked annually. More  
frequent cleaning may be required due to excess lint and  
dust from carpeting, bedding material, etc.  
6. Control compartments, burners and air passages in this  
fireplace should be kept clean and free of dust and lint.  
Make sure the gas valve and pilot light are turned off  
before you attempt to clean this fireplace.  
7. The venting system (chimney) of this fireplace should be  
checked at least once a year and if needed your venting  
system should be cleaned.  
This appliance may be installed in an aftermarket  
permanently located, manufactured home or mobile  
home, where not prohibited by local codes.  
This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indi-  
cated on the rating plate. This appliance is not  
convertible for use with other gases, unless a certified  
kit is used.  
IMPORTANT:  
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY  
Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the  
fireplace ON.  
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off  
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the  
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found  
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine. It is  
not unusual for your CFM Specialty Home Products  
company gas fireplace to give off some odor the first  
time it is burned. This is due to the manufacturing  
process.  
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated  
-open all windows.  
It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at  
least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the  
optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch  
in the “OFF” position during this time.  
Locating Your Fireplace  
8. Keep the area around your fireplace clear of combustible  
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapor and liquids.  
This fireplace should not be used as a drying rack for  
clothing, nor should Christmas stocking or decorations be  
hung in the area of it.  
9. Under no circumstances should any solid fuels (wood,  
coal, paper or cardboard etc.) be used in this fireplace.  
10. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be  
obstructed in any way.

This also applies to the distance between the mantel  
leg (if fitted) and the fireplace.  
For the correct mounting height and widths, refer to  
Figures 4a, 4b and the Mantel Chart below.  
The distances and reference points are not affected by  
the fitting of a bay window front trim kit.  
Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at  
any height and width around the appliance. When  
using paint or lacquer, it must be heat resistant to  
prevent discoloration.

Final Finishing  
Gas Line Installation  
Noncombustible materials such as brick or tile can be  
extended over the edges of the face of the fireplace. Do  
not cover the window frame assembly, any vent,  
louvre assembly top or louvre assembly bottom. If a  
Trim Kit is to be installed, brick and tile will have to be  
installed flush with the side of this appliance.  
When purging gas line the front glass  
must be removed.  
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the right  
side of the appliance. Knockouts are provided at  
convenient locations to allow for the gas pipe installa-  
tion and testing of any gas connection.  
The gas line connection can be made with properly  
tinned 3/8" copper tubing, 1/2" rigid pipe or an approved  
flex connector. Since some municipalities have  
additional local codes, it is always best to consult your  
local authority and the CSA-B149.1 installation codes.  
For USA installations consult the current National Fuel  
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Alternate Switch Location  
Always check for gas leaks with a mild  
soap and water solution applied with a  
brush no larger than 1” (25mm). Never  
apply soap and water solution with a  
spray bottle. Do not use an open flame  
for leak testing.  
The remote switch can be installed on either side of the  
access door. Mount the switch to the switch bracket  
provided. Screw the bracket on either side of the  
frame, line up the screws with the prepunched holes.  
(Fig. 8)  
The fireplace valve must not be sub-  
jected to any test pressures exceeding  
1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any  
other gas appliance control from the gas  
line when pressure testing.  
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type  
pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to  
provide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.  
When using copper or flex connector use only ap-  
proved fittings. Always provide a union when using  
black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily  
disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 6) See  
the gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.

General Venting  
Your fireplace is approved to be vented either through  
the side wall, or vertical through the roof.  
Only CFM Corporation venting components  
specifically approved and labelled for this fire-  
place may be used.  
There must not be any obstruction such as bushes,  
garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within  
24" (610mm) from the front of the termination hood.  
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 acci-  
dental blockage of venting system. When using snow  
blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent  
termination area.  
If vent terminal is installed in an accessible location,  
Vent Termination Guard #53525 shall be installed.  
Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or  
siding.  
Location of Vent Termination  
Horizontal venting which incorporates the twist lock  
pipe must be installed on a level plane without an  
inclining or declining slope.  
Horizontal venting which incorporates the use of flex  
venting shall have an inclining slope from the unit of  
1/2” (13mm) per 12” (305mm).  
It is imperative the vent termination be located observ-  
ing the minimum clearances as shown on following  
page.

General Information Assembling Vent Pipes  
Canadian Installations  
* Be sure the venint is actually crushed before pro-  
ceeding. Apply a tug to be sure the vent will not slip off  
the collars.  
The venting system must be installed in accordance  
with the current CSA-B149.1 installation code.  
Repeat process with 7” flex vent pipe. The same  
procedure must be performed on the vent side.  
USA Installations  
The venting system must conform to local codes and/or  
the current National Fuel Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.  
Apply High Tempera-  
ture Sealant  
Only venting components manufactured by CFM  
Corporation may be used in Direct Vent systems.  
Flex Vent Pipes  
Before joining the flex vent pipe to the unit, apply a  
bead of high temperature sealant* (provided) to the 4”  
pipe exiting the fireplace. Secure flex vent piep in place  
with a hose clamp (provided).  
*Be sure the flex pipe overlaps at least 1” (25mm) onto  
the collars of the fireplace and termination. If the  
termination has an internal bead, be sure to overlap  
and secure 1” (25mm) past the bead.

Twist Lock Pipes  
When using twist lock pipe it is not necessary to use  
sealant on the joints. The only areas of the venting  
system that need to be sealed with high temperature  
silicone sealant are the collars on the fireplace and  
termination, and the sliding joint of any telescopic vent  
section used in the system.

To join twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads  
of the male end with the grooves of the female end,  
twisting the pipe until the flange on the female end  
contacts external flange on the male end. It is recom-  
mended that you secure the joints with three (3) sheet  
metal screws, however, this is not mandatory with twist  
lock pipe. (Fig. 17)  
To make it easier to assembly the joints, we suggest  
putting a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end  
of the twist lock pipe prior to assembly.

How to Use the Vent Graph  
Fig. 18 Sidewall venting graph. (Dimensions in feet.)  
The Vent Graph should be read in conjunction with the  
following vent installation instructions to determine the  
relationship between the vertical and horizontal dimen-  
sions fo the vent system.  
Refer to Page 19 for venting  
requirements for snorkels.  
Rear Wall Vent Application  
1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal  
vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this  
dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph (Fig. 17),  
locate the point intersecting with the slanted graph  
line.  
When installed as a rear vent unit this appliance may be  
vented directly to a termination located on the rear wall  
behind the appliance.  
Only CFM Corporation venting components are  
approved to be used in these applications (See  
‘Venting Components’ listed for different installation  
requirements).  
The maximum horizontal distance between the rear  
of the appliance (or end of the transition elbow in a  
corner application) and the outside face of the rear  
wall is 20” (508mm). (Fig. 19, 20)  
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical  
line to the bottom of the graph.  
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the  
fireplace in accordance with same.  
EXAMPLE A:  
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 11’  
(3.4m) the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall  
must not exceed 14’ (4.3m).  
Only one 45° elbow is allowed in these installations.  
EXAMPLE B:  
Minimum clearances between vent pipe and com-  
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 7’  
(2.1m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall  
must not exceed 8¹⁄₂’ (2.6m).  
bustible materials are as follows:

Locate and cut the vent opening in the wall. For com-  
bustible walls first frame in opening. (Fig. 21)  
Adjustable Zero Clearance Sleeve  
ZCS101  
NOTE: When using flex vent, the opening will have to  
be measured according to the 1/2” (13mm) rise in 12”  
(305mm) vertical run.  
Fig. 22 Adjustable zero clearance sleeve.  
Step 4  
Combustible Walls: Cut a 10³⁄₈”H x 9³⁄₈” W (265mm x  
240mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as  
shown. (Fig. 21)  
Install the 4” (102mm) vent to the appliance collar and  
secure with 3 sheet metal screws. Install the 7”  
(178mm) vent pipe to the appliance collar and secure  
with 3 sheet metal screws. It is not necessary to seal  
this connection. If a 45° elbow is being used attach the  
elbow to the appliance in the same manner then attach  
the venting to the elbow.  
Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening should be 7¹⁄₂”  
(191mm) diameter.  
Zero clearance sleeve is only required for  
combustible walls.  
It is critical that there is no downward  
slope away from the appliance when  
connecting the vent or elbow.  
Step 2  
Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve  
parts to proper length (Maximum 12” / 305mm). As-  
semble sleeve to its maximum opening (10³⁄₈” x 9³ ₈”)  
and attach to firestop assembly. (Fig. 22)  
Step 5  
Guide the venting through the vent hole as you place  
the appliance in its installed position. Guide the 4”  
(102mm) and 7” (178mm) collar of the vent termination  
into the outer ends of the venting. Do not force the  
termination. If the vent pipes do not align with the  
termination, remove and realign the venting at the  
appliance flue collars. (Fig. 23) Attach the termination  
to the wall as outlined in the instruction sheet supplied  
with the termination.  
Step 3  
Measure the horizontal length requirement for the  
venting including a 2” (51mm) overlap, i.e. from the  
elbow to the outside wall face plus 2” (51mm). (Fig. 20)

Rear Wall Vent Installations -  
Flex Vent Pipe  
The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between  
vertical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to  
determine the various dimensions allowable.  
Follow Steps 1 and 2 on Page 14.  
Step 3  
Install the 4” (102mm) flex vent pipe to the appliance  
collars described in “General Information Assembling  
Vent Pipes”, Page 12. If the installation requires a 45°  
angle, grasp the vent pipe close to the appliance collar  
and bend to 45°. DO NOT exceed 45°. (Fig. 24)  
Minimum clearance between vent pipes and com-  
bustible materials is 1” (25mm) on top, bottom and  
sides unless otherwise noted.  
When vent termination exits through foundations less  
than 20” (508mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe  
must flush up with the siding.  
Install the 7” vent pipe in the same manner as Step 2.  
It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that  
minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent  
length.  
Termination  
Flex Section  
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent  
pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the top of  
the Transition Elbow) to the face of the outer wall.  
Appliance Collars  
Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this  
portion of the vent assembly.  
When installing the appliance as a rear  
vent unit, the 90° or 45° Transition Elbow  
attached directly to the rear of the unit is  
NOT INCLUDED in the following criteria  
and calculations, and unless specifically  
mentioned should be ignored when  
calculating venting layouts.  
FP1473  
Fig. 24 Grasp the vent pipe close to the collar and bend to  
45° angle. Do not exceed 45°.  
NOTE: There must be a 1/2” (13mm) rise in a 12”  
(305mm) length of flex vent.  
Step 4  
Assemble the flex vent to the collars on the termination  
as you did on the appliance.

Apply high temperature sealant to 4” (102mm) and 7”  
(178mm) collars or the termination one inch away from  
crimped end. Guide the vent terminations 4” and 7”  
collard into their respective vent pipes. Double check  
that the vent pipes overlap the collars by 2” (51mm).  
Secure the termination to the wall with screws provided  
and caulk around the wall plate to weatherproof. As an  
alternative to screwing the termination directly to the  
wall, you may also use expanding plugs or an ap-  
proved exterior construction adhesive. You may also  
attach the termination with screws through the inner  
body into the 4” vent pipe, however for this method,  
you must extend the 4” pipe approximately 6” (152mm)  
beyond the outer face of the wall.  
Install the 4” (102mm) flex vent pipe to the appliance  
collar as described on Page 12. Secure the end with  
the first spring 6³⁄₄” (172mm) from the flex pipe end to

Do not back fill around snorkel.  
Below Grade Installation  
A clearance of at least 4” must be main-  
tained between the snorkel and the soil.  
When it is not possible to meet the required vent  
terminal clearances of 12” (305mm) above grade level,  
a snorkel kit is recommended. It allows installation  
depth down to 7” (178mm) below grade level. The 7”  
(178mm) is measured from the center of the horizontal  
vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.  
If the foundation is recessed, use recess brackets (not  
supplied) for securing lower portion of the snorkel.  
Fasten brackets to wall first, then secure to snorkel  
with self drilling #8 x 1/2 sheet metal screws. It will be  
necessary to extend vent pipes out as far as the  
protruding wall face. (Fig. 38)  
Ensure the sidewall venting clearances are ob-  
served. If venting system is installed below ground,  
we recommend a window well with adequate and  
proper drainage to be installed around the termina-  
tion area.  
If installing a snorkel, a minimum 24” (610mm) vertical  
rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the  
24” vertical pipe is 36” (914mm). This measurement is  
taken from the collar of the fireplace (or transition  
elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. See the Sidewall  
Venting Graph for extended horizontal run if the verti-  
cal exceeds 24” (610mm).

It is 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 the glass be cleaned two  
or three times with a non-ammonia household cleaner

Trouble Shooting the Gas Control System  
SIT NOVA 820 Millivolt Valve  
Note: Before trouble shooting the gas control system, be sure external gas shut off is in the “On” position.  
WARNING: Before doing any gas control service work, remove glass front.  
SYMPTOM  
POSSIBLE CAUSES  
CORRECTIVE ACTION  
1.Spark ignitor will not light  
A. Defective or misaligned  
electrode at pilot.  
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off  
pilot and push the red button again. If pilot will not  
light - check gap at electrode and pilot-should be  
1/8" to have a strong spark.  
B. Defective ignitor (Push Button)  
Push Piezo Ignitor Button. Check for spark at  
electrode and pilot. If no spark to pilot, and elec  
trode wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.  
2.Pilot will not stay lit after  
carefully following lighting  
instructions.  
A. Defective pilot generator  
(thermocouple), remote wall  
switch.  
Check pilot flame. Must impinge on thermo  
couple/thermopile. Note: this pilot burner assem  
bly utilizes both-a thermocouple and a thermopile.  
The thermocouple operates the main valve  
operation (On and Off). Clean and or adjust pilot for  
maximum flame impingement on thermopile and  
thermocouple.  
B. Defective automatic valve  
Turn valve knob to “Pilot”. Maintain flow to pilot;  
milivolt meter should read greater than 10 mV. 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.  
3.Pilot burning, no gas to  
main burner  
A. Wall switch or wires defective  
Check wall switch and wires for proper connec  
tions. Jumper wire accross terminals at wall  
switch, if burner comes on, replace defective wall  
switch. If okay, jumper wires across wall switch  
wires at valve, if burner comes on, wires are faulty  
or connections are bad.  
B. Thermopile may not be  
generating sufficient  
millivoltage.  
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 wall switch wires may be grounded.  
Remove wall switch wires from valve terminals if  
pilot now stays lit, trace wall switch wiring for  
ground. May be grounded to fireplace or gas  
supply.  
3. Check thermopile with millivolt meter. Take  
reading at thermopile terminals of gas valve.  
Should read 250-300 millivolts (minimum 150)  
while holding valve knob depressed in pilot  
position and wall 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 valve knob to “On”, place wall switch to “On”  
millivolt meter should read greater than 100 mV. If  
the reading is okay and the burner does not come  
on, replace the gas valve.  
4.Frequent pilot outage  
problem.  
A. Pilot flame may be too low  
or blowing (high) causing the  
pilot safety to drop out.  
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame  
impingement on thermopile and thermocouple.  
B. Possible blockage of the vent  
terminal.  
Check the vent terminal for blockage (recycling the  
flue gases)
