Installation Codes
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 in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes
with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (in the United States), or to
the CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting room in the U.S.A.
and Canada.
High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to
2,000 feet in the U.S.A. and from 0 to 4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2,000 feet (in the United
States), it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the
existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent
(4%) for each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating value of the gas
has been reduced, in which case this general rule will not apply. To identify the
proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation between 2,000 and 4,500 feet (in
Canada), the input rating must be reduced by ten percent (10%).
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4,500 feet (in Canada),
check with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determining the proper orifice for
your location.

incomplete, or substitute parts.
Pre-install
Preparation
Getting
Started
NOTE: FOR MODEL 6000TR ONLY:
These fireplaces are shipped from the factory with a
BTU rating of 27,000 BTU’s. The fireplace can be
installed with the vent pipe coming off the top of the
unit or the rear of the unit. If you install the unit with
the vent pipe coming off the top of the unit, you may
run the unit at 31,000 BTU (NG) (30,000 BTU LP),
replace the burner orifice with the orifice included in
the manual bag. DO NOT REPLACE THE ORIFICE
IF YOU ARE USING THE REAR SET OF VENT
COLLARS.
Changing the orifice when venting out the top.
1. Remove the glass door.
2. Using a 1/4” socket, remove the sheetmetal
screws holding the long refractory clip in place.
Remove the logs and refractory as one piece.
3. Remove the protective plastic from the logs.
4. Remove the two sheetmetal screws holding the
burner and remove the burner.
5. Replace the burner orifice with the orifice in-
cluded in the plastic manual bag (#36DMS for
natural gas or #51DMS for propane). Be careful
to hold the brass elbow so you don’t kink the
aluminum tube.
6. Reverse the steps to replace the burner, logs,
refractory, and clip.
The vent system components and trim doors are
shipped in separate packages. The gas logs may
be packaged separately and must be field installed.
Read all of the instructions before starting the
installation. Follow these instructions carefully
during the installation to ensure maximum
safety and benefit. Failure to follow these
instructions will void the owner’s warranty and
may present a fire hazard.

The Heat-N-Glo Warranty will be voided by, and Heat-N-Glo disclaims any
responsibility for, the following actions:
• Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system component.
• Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.
• Installation other than as instructed by Heat-N-Glo.
• Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.
• Installation and/or use of any component part not manufactured and approved by
Heat-N-Glo, not withstanding any independent testing laboratory or other party
approval of such component part or accessory.
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD.
When planning a fireplace installation, it’s necessary to determine:
• Where the unit is to be installed.
• The vent system configuration to be used.
• Gas supply piping.
• 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.
NOTE:
6000TR has top and rear collars.
6000XLT-CDN has top collars only.
6000XLS has rear collars only.

Step 3
Installing the
Vent System
A. Vent System Approvals
These models are approved to use D-series direct vent
pipe components and terminations. Approved vent
system components are labeled for identification. NO
OTHER VENTING SYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS
MAY BE USED. Detailed installation instructions are
included with each vent termination kit and should be
used in conjunction with this Installers Guide. The
drawing below shows vent system components and
terminations.
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the
type of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.
Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may
include one, two, or three 90° elbow assemblies. The
relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent
configurations 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.
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 vent starting collars on both the top and
the back of the unit. Depending upon the installation,
decide which ONE set of starting collars will be used to
attach the vent system. The starting collar sealing cap
must remain on the starting collar NOT used.

Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the
following:
Step 11
Before Lighting
the Fireplace
Remove all paperwork and documents from the
fireplace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
• 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.
Double-check vent terminations and front
grilles for obstructions.
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit
for possible obstructions that could be blocking
the vent terminations or the front grilles.
Double-check for faulty components
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST
BE replaced with an approved component.
Tampering with the fireplace components is
DANGEROUS and voids all warranties.
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.
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.
NOTE: The fireplace should be run for 8 hours on
the inital start-up.This will help to cure the chemicals
used in the paint and logs.
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.

Relief Ports
Model 6000ARCH
In the unlikely event of a delayed lighting of the burner, the
relief cover plate is designed to open and release the
microswitch lever. This will prevent the DSI valve from op-
erating until the cover plate is re-set and the microswitch
lever closed. To Re-set: 1. Pull and hold the microswitch
lever arm DOWN. 2. Push the cover plate UP and release
the switch lever arm. See Figure 40.
