Approvals and  
Codes  
1
Appliance Certification  
High Altitude Installations  
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved with-  
out requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in  
the U. S. A. and in Canada.  
The Heat & Glo fireplace models discussed in this Installers  
Guide have been tested to certification standards and listed  
by the applicable laboratories.  
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2,000  
feet, 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 feet above a  
2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. or 10% for elevations  
between 2000 and 4500 feet 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.

Installation Codes  
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4,500 feet  
(in Canada), check with local authorities.  
The fireplace installation must conform to local codes. Before  
installing the fireplace, consult the local building code  
agency to ensure that you are in compliance with all  
applicable codes, including permits and inspections.  
In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation must  
conform to the National Fuel Gas CodeANSI Z223.1 (in the  
United States) or the CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Codes  
(in Canada). The appliance must be electrically grounded

Introducing the Heat & Glo Gas Fireplaces  
The Heat & Glo Warranty will be voided by, and Heat & Glo  
disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:  
Heat & Glo direct vent gas fireplaces are designed to oper-  
ate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the  
building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside.  
Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system  
component.  
Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.  
Installation other than as instructed by Heat & Glo.  
Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.  
The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless  
noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control  
systems. Gas fireplace diagrams, including the dimensions,  
are shown in this section.  
Installation and/or use of any component part not manu-  
factured and approved by Heat & Glo, not withstanding  
any independent testing laboratory or other party approval  
of such component part or accessory.  
Pre-install Preparation  
This gas fireplace and its components are tested and safe  
when installed in accordance with this Installers Guide.  
Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,  
particularly the condition of the glass. Do not install any  
unit with damaged, incomplete, or substitute parts.  
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE  
HAZARD.  
When planning a fireplace installation, it’s necessary  
to determine:  
The vent system components are shipped in separate pack-  
ages. The gas logs are packaged separately and must be  
field installed.  
Where the unit is to be installed.  
The vent system configuration to be used.  
Gas supply piping.  
Read all of the instructions before starting the instal-  
lation. Follow these instructions carefully during the  
installation to ensure maximum safety and benefit.  
Failure to follow these instructions will void the own-  
er’s warranty and may present a fire hazard.  
Electrical wiring.  
Framing and finishing details.  
Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,  
wall switch, or remote control—are desired.  
If the fireplace is to be installed on carpeting or tile,  
or on any combustible material other than wood  
flooring, the fireplace should be installed on a metal  
or wood panel that extends the full width and depth  
of the fireplace.

Step 1. Locating the Fireplace  
Note: This location diagram MUST be followed when in-  
stalling a Pier-HVB with a Catalina shelf/marble package  
since the fireplace is installed further from finished wall.  
The diagram below shows space and clearance require-  
ments for locating a fireplace within a room.

Clearance Requirements  
The top, back, and sides of the fireplace are defined by  
stand-offs. The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall  
extending past the face of the fireplace is one inch (25 mm).  
The metal ends of the fireplace may NOT be recessed into  
combustible construction.

Step 2. Framing the Fireplace  
Minimum Clearances  
from the Fireplace to Combustible Materials  
Fireplace framing can be built before or after the fireplace is  
set in place. Framing should be positioned to accommo-  
date wall coverings and fireplace facing material. The dia-  
gram below shows framing reference dimensions.

the unit, excluding the standoffs (see Figures 37 & 38).  
The distance from the unit to combustible construction is to  
be measured from the unit outer wrap surface to the com-  
bustible construction, NOT from the screw heads that se-  
cure the unit together.

Identifying Vent Components  
Step 3. Installing the Vent System  
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in-  
clude one, two, or three 90° elbow assemblies. The rela-  
tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura-  
tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The  
rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings  
and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.  
A. Vent System Approvals  
These models are approved to use DVP series direct vent  
pipe components and terminations (see Figures 6 and 7).  
Approved vent system components are labeled for identifi-  
cation. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved com-  
ponent of the fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside  
an enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection  
openings at each joint within the wall. There is no required  
pitch for horizontal vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYS-  
TEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.  
NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one  
90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must  
be followed if 45° elbows are used.  
This model has a 450 elbow built into it. It may be posi-  
tioned to vent either horizontal or vertical. Depending on the  
installation, decide which direction the elbow should be fac-  
ing. Remove the 8 screws from the corner cover plate. Po-  
sition the 450 elbow as desired and replace the corner cov-  
er plate with the 8 screws.  
Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent  
termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this  
Installers Guide.  
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the  
type of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.

B. Installing Vent Components  
Venting Out Vertically  
After determining which direction the 45O elbow will be used  
follow venting instructions accordingly.  
If the vertical vent component is over 4 feet, you may want  
to install the flue restrictor (located in the bag containing  
the install manual) to improve flame appearance. Center  
the flue restrictor on the 5” flue being used, and with self  
tapping screws secure the restrictor to the inside of the  
firebox as shown in Figure 22.  
This fireplace comes ready to vent vertically.  
To vent off the unit horizontally, the elbow cover plate  
must first be removed from the unit (see Figure 20).  
The elbow can be removed from the unit by aligning the  
seams of the elbow to the arrows on the surrounding  
heat shield (see Figure 21).  
Position the elbow in the vertical position. Snap in place  
with the starting collar.  
FLUE  
RESTRICTOR  
Replace the elbow cover plate aligning it with the elbow  
and secure in place with the 8 screws.  
Place the rope ring around the first section of pipe and  
slide it up against the cover plate.  
NOTE: The rope ring is needed for the heat manage-  
ment and to prevent cold air infiltration.

2. Continue Adding Vent Components  
Note: Heat shields MUST overlap by a minimum of 1-1/2  
in. (38mm). The heat shield is designed to be used on a  
wall 4 in. to 7-1/4 in. (102mm to 184mm) thick. If wall  
thickness is less than 4 in. (102mm) the existing heat  
shields must be field trimmed. If wall thickness is greater  
than 7-1/4 in. (184mm) a DVP-HSM-B will be required.  
Refer to Cinch Pipe and Termination Cap installation in-  
structions.  
• Continue adding vent components, locking each succeed-  
ing component into place.  
• Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure-  
ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the  
vent system. Securing pipe sections with a maximum of  
two screws is recommended.

WALL  
For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both  
sides of a combustible wall through which the vent passes.  
For Vertical Runs - One ceiling firestop is REQUIRED at  
the hole in each ceiling through which the vent passes.  
NOTE: Model DVP-TRAP does not need an exterior  
firestop on an exterior combustible wall. The firestop is  
built into the cap.  
To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through ceilings:  
• Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the verti-  
cal vent component.  
To install firestops for horizontal runs that pass through either  
interior or exterior walls:  
• Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the vent.  
• Drill a hole or drive a nail through this centerpoint.  
• Cut a 10” x 12” (254mm X 305mm) hole through the wall.  
NOTE: The center of the hole is one (1) inch (25.4mm)  
above the center of the horizontal vent pipe.  
• Check the floor above for any obstructions, such as wir-  
ing or plumbing runs.  
• Position the firestops on both sides of the hole previ-  
ously cut and secure the firestops with nails or screws.  
• Reposition the fireplace and vent system, if necessary,  
to accommodate the ceiling joists and/or obstructions.  
• The heat shields of the firestops MUST BE placed to-  
wards the top of the hole.  
• Cut an 10-inch X 10-inch (254mm x 254mm) hole through  
the ceiling, using the centerpoint previously marked.  
• Continue the vent run through the firestops.  
• Frame the hole with framing lumber the same size as the  
ceiling joists.  
NOTE: There must be NO INSULATION or other  
combustibles inside the framed firestop opening.

Operation using Battery Power  
This fireplace has an optional battery operation. The sys-  
tem is fully functional with the use of two “D” size batteries  
without ordinary 110-120 VAC power.  
CAUTION: DISCONNECT REMOTE CONTROLS IF AB-  
SENT FOR EXTENDED TIME PERIODS. THIS WILL PRE-  
VENT ACCIDENTAL FIREPLACE OPERATION.  
Wiring to the battery pack should be left disconnected in  
order to conserve battery life. In the case of a loss of power,  
simply connect red and black wire leads to activate battery  
power (connect red to red, black to black). The fireplace can  
be used as necessary. Once power (110 VAC) is restored,  
disconnect red and black wire leads to extend battery life.  
For Intermittent Pilot Ignition Wiring  
Appliance Requirements  
This appliance requires that 110-120 VAC be wired to the  
junction box. Maintain correct polarity when wiring the junc-  
tion box.  
WARNING

Step 10. Installing Trim, Logs & Ember Material  
Installing the Trim  
Combustible materials may be brought up to the specified  
clearances on the side and top front edges of the fireplace,  
but MUST NEVER overlap onto the front face. The joints  
between the finished wall and the fireplace top and sides  
can only be sealed with a 300° F. (149° C) minimum sealant.

WARNING: WHEN FINISHING THE FIREPLACE,  
NEVER OBSTRUCT OR MODIFY THE AIR INLET/

!
Heat & Glo fireplaces manufactured with tempered glass  
may be installed in hazardous locations such as bathtub  
enclosures as defined by the CPSC. The tempered glass  
has been tested and certified to the requirements of ANSI  
Z97.1-1984 and CPSC 16 CFR 1202. (Safety Glazing Certi-  
fication Council SGCC # 1595 and 1597. Architectural Test-  
ing, Inc. Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-31917.01.)  
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as  
desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-combustible  
materials can be used to cover up the gap between  
combustible material (sheetrock or wood) and the fireplace.  
Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When  
overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that the  
bottom grille can be lowered and the trim door removed.  
This statement is in compliance with CPSC 16 CFR Sec-  
tion 1201.5 “Certification and labeling requirements” which  
refers to 15 USC 2063 stating “…Such certificate shall ac-  
company the product or shall otherwise be furnished to any  
distributor or retailer to whom the product is delivered.”  
Positioning the Logs  
If the gas logs have been factory installed they should not  
need to be positioned. If the logs have been packaged  
separately, refer to the instructions that accompany the  
logs. Save the log instructions with this manual.  
Some local building codes require the use of tempered glass  
with permanent marking in such locations. Glass meeting  
this requirement is available from the factory. Please con-  
tact your dealer or distributor to order.  
If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned  
slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.

Placing the Ember Material  
Optional Ember Light Kit (Emberkit-MS)  
Ember Light Bulb Replacement  
Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. The bag  
labeled Glowing Ember (050-721) is standard glowing em-  
ber material.  
In the lower gas valve compartment you will find three ac-  
cess panels for the three light bulbs (see Figure 43).  
To place the ember material:  
ACCESS PANEL  
Remove the wing nuts and glass clips or tension springs  
around the glass door.  
Remove the glass door from the unit.  
Remove the grate and log set by removing the screws.  
Place dime size pieces of ember material about 1/2 inch  
apart near port holes in burner top. Do NOT press em-  
bers into burner ports. Cover the top of the burner with a  
single layer of ember material.  
Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire-  
place servicing. The bag of embers provided is sufficient  
for 3 to 5 applications.  
Figure 43.  
Using a 5/16” nut driver remove the two bolts (see  
Figure 44).  
Replace the glass door and a front trim door on the unit.  
ACCESS PANEL  
Figure 44.  
Figure 42. Placement of the Ember Material  
Pull the access panel to expose the light bulb. Wearing  
clean cotton gloves replace the bulb. Any skin oils which  
get on a new bulb will greatly shorten the life of the bulb.  
The bulb can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol (see Figure 45).

A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When  
first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the  
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is  
complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally.  
Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace  
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:  
• Remove the rubber bands from the log set (see Figure  
46).  
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this  
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas  
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which  
case the air would have to be purged.  
RUBBER  
BANDS  
NOTE: The fireplace should be run 3 to 4 hours on the  
initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely. Remove  
and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the fireplace  
for an additional 8 hours. This will help to cure the products  
used in the paint and logs.  
During this break-in period it is recommended that some  
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will  
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate  
any odors associated with the fireplace’s initial burning.  
FOAM  
PADS  
Figure 46.  
• Remove the two foam pads which support the log set  
and grate and allow the log set and grate to rest on the  
base pan.  
Step 12. Lighting the Fireplace  
You’ve reviewed all safety warnings, you’ve checked the  
fireplace for gas leaks, you know the vent system is  
unobstructed, and you’ve checked for faulty components.  
Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.  
• Install the Lava Rock (supplied) to the firebox base pan  
being careful not to cover the burner with the Lava Rock.  
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.  
Review safety warnings and cautions  
WARNING: PLEASE REFER TO THE USER’S  
MANUAL FORALL CAUTIONS, SAFETY, AND  
WARNING INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE  
LIGHTING AND OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE.  
!
• Read the Safety and Warning Information section at  
the beginning of this Installers Guide.  
Double-check for gas leaks  
Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for  
possible gas leaks.  
After the Installation  
Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for  
obstructions.  
LEAVE THIS INSTALLATION MANUAL WITH  
!
THE APPLIANCE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.  
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for  
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter-  
minations or the front grilles.  
Double-check for faulty components  
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-  
placed with an approved component. Tampering with the  
fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all war-  
ranties.

Maintaining and Servicing Your Fireplace  
4
Fireplace Maintenance  
Although the frequency of your fireplace servicing and main-  
tenance will depend on use and the type of installation, you  
should have a qualified service technician perform an appli-  
ance check-up at the beginning of each heating season.  
See the table below for specific guidelines regarding each  
fireplace maintenance task.  
IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE GAS BEFORE SERVICING  
YOUR FIREPLACE.  
Replacing old ember material  
Frequency: Once annually, during the checkup.  
By: Qualified service technician.  
MAKE SURE THE FLAMES  
ARE STEADY—NOT  
LIFTING OR FLOATING.  
Task: Brush away loose ember material near the burner.  
Replace old ember material with new dime-size and shape  
pieces of Golden Ember (GE-93) and Glowing Ember (050-  
721). New ember material should be placed alternately on  
top of the burner - a layer of Golden Ember, a layer of  
Glowing Ember, and so on. Save the remaining ember  
material and repeat this procedure at your next servicing.  
For more information, see Placing Ember Material.  
Figure 47. Burner Flame Patterns  
Checking Vent System  
Frequency: Before initial use and at least annually  
thereafter, more frequently if possible.  
Cleaning Burner and Controls  
Frequency: Once annually.  
By: Qualified service technician.  
Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment, fireplace  
logs and burner areas surrounding the logs.  
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.  
Task: Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to  
ensure that no debris is interfering with the flow of air. Inspect  
entire vent system for proper function.

Task: Remove and clean glass after the first 3 to 4 hours of  
use. After the initial cleaning, clean as necessary, particu-  
larly after adding new ember (flame colorant) material. Film  
deposits on the inside of the glass door should be cleaned  
off using a household glass cleaner. NOTE: DO NOT handle  
or attempt to clean the door when it is hot and DO  
NOT use abrasive cleaners.  
Task: Make a visual check of the straight flame sensor rod.  
Use emery cloth to carefully remove any existing white film  
or deposits.  
Checking Flame Patterns, Flame Height  
Frequency: Periodically.  
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.  
Task: Make a visual check of your fireplace’s flame patterns.  
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating.  
See Figure 47. The flame sensor (IPI) tips should be covered  
with flame. See Figure 32.
