PRODUCT FEATURES  
Operation  
This Vent-free Gas Fireplace requires no outside venting or chimney making installation easy  
and inexpensive. When used without the optional blower, the fireplace requires no electricity  
making it ideal for emergency backup heat.  
Blower Accessory  
The 2020 Vent-free Gas Fireplace will accept the Blower Kit accessory. The kit comes with  
the variable blower. The variable blower allows you to select the fan speed you desire. The  
blower circulates heated air from the fireplace into the room. Use of the blower is optional.  
LOCATING FIREPLACE  
Planning  
Plan where you will install the fireplace. This will save time and money later when you install  
the fireplace. Before installation, consider the following:  
1. Where the fireplace will be located. Allow for wall and ceiling clearances (see  
Installation Clearances, pages 10 & 11).  
2. Everything needed to complete installation.  
3. This model CANNOT be installed in a bedroom or bathroom.  
4. Proper air for combustion and ventilation (see below).  
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION  
WARNING  
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construc-  
tion unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.  
Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-  
burning appliances in your home.  
Today's homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insula-  
tion, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather  
strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During  
heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as possible.  
While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air  
must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and  
ventilation.  
Exhaust fans, fireboxes, clothes dryers, and fuel-burning appliances draw air from the house  
to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper  
venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION CONTINUED  
Providing adequate ventilation  
The following is excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code. NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3,  
Air for Combustion and Ventilation.  
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:  
1. Unusually Tight Construction; 2. Unconfined Space; 3. Confined Space.  
The information on pages 6 through 10 will help you classify your space and provide ad-  
equate ventilation.  
UnusuallyTight Construction  
The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion  
and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide  
additional fresh air.  
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:  
a. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous  
water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6x10-11kg per pa-sec-m2) or less  
with openings gasketed or sealed and  
b. Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors and  
c. Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and  
door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints,  
between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines,  
and at other openings.  
If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air. See  
Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 10.  
If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to page 8.  
Confined Space and Unconfined Space  
The National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1, 1992 Section 5.3) defines a confined space as a  
3
space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m per kw) of the  
aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a  
3
space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m per kw) of  
the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating  
directly with the space in which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished  
with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.  
* Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation  
grills between them.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION CONTINUED  
Determining ifYou Have a Confined or Unconfined Space  
Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.  
Space: Includes the room in which you will install the firebox plus any adjoining rooms with  
doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.  
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).  
Length x Width x Height = _______________ cu. Ft. (volume of space)  
Example: Space size  
22 ft. (length) x 18 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) =  
3168 cu. Ft. (volume of space)  
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the  
volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.  
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum BTU/Hr the space  
can support.  
_________ (volume of space) 50 cu. Ft. = (Maximum BTU/Hr the space can support)  
Example: 3168 cu. Ft. (volume of space) 50 cu. Ft. = 63.3 or 63,300 (maximum  
BTU/Hr the space can support)  
3. Add the BTU/Hr of all fuel-burning appliances in the space.

4. Compare the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of  
BTU/ Hr used.  
______________ BTU/Hr (maximum the space can support)  
______________ BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr used)  
Example: 63,300 BTU/Hr (maximum the space can support)  
79,000 BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr used)  
The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual BTU/Hr used is  
more than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support. You must provide additional fresh  
air.  
Your options are as follows:  
A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides  
an unconfined space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between  
rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside Building, page 9.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION CONTINUED  
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air from Outdoors, page 10.  
C. Install a lower BTU/Hr firebox, if lower BTU/Hr size makes room unconfined.  
If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support, the space  
is an unconfined space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.  
WARNING  
If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an  
unconfined space or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide ad-  
equate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the Na-  
tional Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.  
VENTILATION AIR  
Ventilation Air From Inside Building  
This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconfined space. When ventilating to an ad-  
joining unconfined space, you must provide two permanent openings: one within 12" of the  
ceiling and one within 12" of the floor into adjoining room ( see options in Figure 1).  
Follow the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion  
and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.  
WARNING  
Rework worksheet, adding the space of the adjoining unconfined space. The  
combined spaces must have enough fresh air to supply all appliances in both  
spaces.

Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You must provide two permanent  
openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor. Connect these items  
directly to the outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These spaces include attics and  
crawl spaces. (See Figure 2)  
IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermostat-  
controlled power vent. Heated air entering the attic will activate the power vent.

GAS CONNECTION  
A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the fireplace to  
the gas supply. Consult all local codes.  
Use new black iron or steel pipe only. Internally tinned copper tubing can be  
used in some areas when permitted by local codes. Only use pipe of 1/2" or  
greaterdiametertoallowfullgasvolumetoheater. Excessivepressurelosswill  
occur if the pipe is too small.  
A manual shutoff valve, union and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping point  
must be installed upstream of the heater (FIGURE 8).  
A sediment trap must be installed upstream of the heater to prevent moisture  
and contaminants from passing through the pipe to the heater controls and  
burners. Failure to do so could prevent the heater from operating reliably  
(FIGURE 8).  
IMPORTANT: Loosen the pipe adapter  
on the flex tube before installing to the  
system piping.

has been turned down to a lower setting.  
MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS  
If the pilot will not light using the piezo ignitor, you can light the pilot with a match. First, locate  
the pilot. The pilot is located between the two burner tubes on the right end (facing the unit),  
inside the firebox. To light pilot with a match, move the gas control (knob 1, pg. 16) to the pilot  
position and hold down. Light match and place near pilot. Once pilot is lit, continue to hold the  
knob for about ten seconds. Then follow steps 7 thru 10 on page 16.  
CHECKING FLAME APPEARANCE  
Flames from the pilot, front and rear burner should be visually checked when the heater is  
installed. In addition a periodic visual check of the flames should be made.  
PILOT FLAME  
The pilot flame should always be present  
when the heater is in operation and should  
just touch the top of the thermocouple tip  
(FIGURE 9).  
If the pilot flame does not touch the thermo-  
couple, then the main burner is unlikely to  
function reliably (FIGURE 10).
