Approvals
and Codes
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 Code ANSI 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 (natural gas and propane) can be installed in a bedroom (in the
United States) which has a total volume of unconfined space appropriate to the
particular installation. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54
(current edition). The Uniform Mechanical Code - (current edition), and local
Building Officials for the options allowed in obtaining an effective bedroom
volume of unconfined space.
These models (natural gas and propane) can be installed in a bedroom (in
Canada) if a thermostat (Model WH-STAT) is installed with the unit. Consult
local code authorities. Detailed installation instructions for Model WH-STAT are
included with the kit.
High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed fireplaces are tested and approved for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet
in the U.S.A. and are tested and approved for elevations 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.

Negative Pressure warning: When negative
pressure is present, an atmospherically vented
fireplace (with a draft hood) may not function
properly and it may down draft. In the case of a
gas appliance, spillage of the combustion gases
may occur. This may create a dangerous
carbon monoxide situation in the house.
Step 3
Negative
Pressure
Make-up Air
The causes of negative pressure to a house can
include the following:
• Stack effect in the building.
• Exhaust only appliances (mechanically and
atmospherically vented).
• Inadequate make-up air (which is increasingly
more prevalent in new construction).
It is recommended that all natural venting non-air
tight gas fireplaces have outside air connected
to them. It is also recommended that the building
be mechanically or passively balanced to allow
atmospherically vented appliances, such as top

vented gas fireplaces with draft hoods, to draft
properly. If the home experiences negative pressure
or is likely to experience negative pressure,
connection to an outside air source is mandatory.
Installing Optional Outside Make-up Air:
This unit is equipped to accept outside air. By using
outside make-up air, the amount of room air used for
combustion will be reduced. It is recommended that
an AK-TV air kit be used with this appliance.
WARNING: IN A NEGATIVE PRESSURE
CONDITION (LIKELY TO OCCUR IN
NEW HOMES THAT DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE
MAKE-UP AIR) THE OUTSIDE AIR KIT MUST
BE INSTALLED TO OBTAIN PROPER
PERFORMANCE AND TO HELP PREVENT
SPILLAGE OF COMBUSTION GASES.
A 4-inch side collar/damper (found in AK-TV Kit)
must be installed on the fireplace by attaching the
side collar to the outer wrap of the fireplace at the
right-hand rear corner using sheetmetal screws.
See Figure 4. Attach one end of a 4-inch flexible air
duct (not provided in the AK-TV Kit) to the side collar
and the other end of the duct to the make-up air
termination cap. Use plastic tie straps to secure the
ends of the flex duct to each collar.
Air Damper
Before lighting the burner, open the damper. Close
the damper when the burner is off.

Installing the
Vent System
A. Vent System Approvals
Model 8000TVC is approved to use 6-inch (152mm)
diameter B-type vent. B-type vent must be used
when the vent system is within combustible
construction.
These models may also use single wall rigid or flexible
gas vent IF and ONLY IF the vent system is installed
within non-combustible construction such as a masonry
chimney. The same diameter noted above for B-type
vent must be used for single-wall vent. See Figure 5.
For B-type vent the clearance to combustibles is
1-inch. Follow vent manufacturers REQUIRED
clearances.
The flame and ember appearance may vary
based on the type of fuel burned and the venting
configuration used.

Step 12
Before Lighting
the Fireplace
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the
following:
Remove all paperwork and documents from
underneath 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.
NOTE:
The fireplace should be run for 8 hours on the initial
start-up. This will help to cure the chemicals used in
the paint and logs.
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.
Step 13
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.
WARNING
PLEASE REFER TO THE USER’S
MANUAL FOR ALL CAUTIONS, SAFETY,
AND WARNING INFORMATION
PERTAINING TO THE LIGHTING AND
OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE.
