Clearance Requirements  
WARNING:  
Minimum Clearances to Combustible Materials  
• Always maintain required  
clearances (air spaces) to nearby combustibles  
to prevent fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with  
insulation. All venting components must  
maintain a 1" (25mm) clearance to combustible  
materials. Maintain a 6” (152mm) clearance  
when using single wall pipe. Maintain a 2”  
(51mm) clearance when venting straight off the  
rear.  
Measure side clearances as shown in Figures 3, 4 and  
5 from the outer edge of the cast iron stove top.  
Measure rear clearances from the outermost surface of  
the steel rear skirt.  
The PDV20 and SDVR heaters are approved for  
installation into an alcove constructed of combustible  
materials to the dimensions and clearances shown on  
the next page.  
• The gas appliance and vent system must be  
vented directly to the outside of the building  
and never be attached to a chimney serving a  
separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance.  
The same clearances apply in a standard parallel  
installation.  
• Refer to the manufacturer's instructions  
included with the venting system for complete  
installation procedures.

Vertical Termination  
Vent Termination Clearances  
A vertical vent system must terminate no less than 8'  
(2.44m) and no more than 40’ (12m) above the appli-  
ance flue collar. A 2¹⁄₄" restrictor plate (supplied) must  
be used (where specified) in all vertically terminated  
vent systems. NOTE: The restrictor plate supplied  
with the vertical termination should be discarded.  
Install restrictor plate supplied with stove directly  
at stove outlet. A vertically terminated vent system  
must also conform to the following criteria:  
When planning the installation, consider the location of  
the vent terminal and clearances. Some of the most  
common clearances to keep in mind are shown in  
Figure 9.  
Important: All vent clearances must be maintained.  
Check your vent termination clearances against  
Figures 9 and 10 .  
The vent should be placed so that people cannot be  
burned by accidentally touching the vent surfaces  
when the stove is operating.  
No more than three 90° elbows may be used. 90°  
elbow off back must be transition elbow.  
Two 45° elbows may be substituted for one 90°  
elbow. No more than six elbows may be used.  
Vent must rise a minimum of 2 feet before offset is  
used.  
The vent termination should be located where it cannot  
be damaged by such things as automobile doors, lawn  
mowers or snowblowers and it should be located away  
from areas where it could become blocked by snow,  
etc.  
Termination height must conform to roof clearance as  
specified in Figure 9.  
Some considerations are:  
Obstructions or impediments to venting.  
40  
39  
Nearby combustible materials that could come into  
contact with combustion exhaust gases.  
Other nearby openings {within 9" (230mm)} through  
which exhaust gas could reenter the building.  
All vegetation within 3' (914mm) that may interfere  
with the draft.

Other factors that influence where the installation will  
be sited include the location of outside walls, where  
additional heat may be desired in the home, where the  
family members gather most regularly, and perhaps  
most importantly, the distance limitations of the venting  
system.

Pinnacle & Stardance Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heaters  
Vent Termination Clearances  
Your stove is approved to be vented either through the  
side wall, or vertical through the roof.  
There must not be any obstruction such as bushes,  
garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within  
24" from the front of the termination hood.  
CFM Specialty Home Products does not require  
any opening for inspection of vent pipe.  
Only CFM Corporation venting components  
specifically approved and labelled for this stove  
may be used.  
Minimum clearances between vent pipes and  
combustible materials is one (1") inch (25mm),  
except where stated otherwise.  
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  
accidental blockage of venting system. When using  
snow blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards  
vent termination area.  
Location of Vent Termination  
Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall  
or siding.  
Horizontal venting must be installed on a level plane  
without an inclining or declining slope.  
It is imperative the vent termination be located observ-  
ing the minimum clearances as shown in Figure 9.

Troubleshooting / Honeywell #8420 Gas Control System  
NOTE: Before troubleshooting the gas control system, be sure the external gas shutoff is in the “ON” position.  
WARNING: REMOVE THE GLASS PANEL BEFORE PERFORMING ANY GAS CONTROL SERVICE WORK.  
SYMPTOM  
POSSIBLE CAUSES  
CORRECTIVE ACTION  
1. Spark ignitor will  
not light  
A. Defective or misaligned  
electrode at the pilot  
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and  
push the ignitor button again. If pilot will not light, check  
gap at electrode and pilot - it 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 there is no spark at the pilot, and electrode  
wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.  
A. Defective pilot generator  
(thermocouple)  
2. Pilot will not stay lit  
after carefully  
Check pilot flame. It must impinge on the thermocouple  
or thermopile. NOTE: This pilot burner assembly uses  
both a thermocouple and a thermopile. The thermo-  
couple operates the pilot flame. Tighten the thermo-  
couple. The thermopile operates the main valve (ON and  
OFF). Clean and/or adjust pilot for maximum flame  
impingement on thermocouple and thermopile.  
following the  
lighting instructions  
B. Defective automatic valve  
operator  
Turn valve knob to ‘Pilot’. Maintain flow to pilot; millivolt  
meter should read greater than 10mV. 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.  
A. Remote switch or wires  
defective  
Check rocker switch and wires for proper connection.  
Use jumper wires across terminals at rocker switch. If  
burner lights, replace rocker switch. If okay, use jumper  
wires across rocker switch wires at the valve; if burner  
lights, wires are faulty or connections are bad.  
3. Pilot lights, no gas  
to burner, valve  
knob ON, remote  
switch (rocker  
switch) ON  
B. Thermopile may not gener-  
ate sufficient voltage  
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 rocker switch wires may be grounded.  
Remove rocker switch wires from valve terminals. If  
burner now stays lit, trace rocker switch wiring from  
ground. It may be grounded to the appliance or the  
gas supply line.  
3. Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take  
reading at thermopile (“TP” and “TP/TH”) terminals of  
gas valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while  
holding valve knob depressed in PILOT position and  
with rocker 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 knob to ON, place rocker switch to ON, millivolt  
meter should read greater than 10 mV. If the reading is  
okay and the burner does not light, replace the valve.  
A. Pilot flame may be too low  
or high, (blowing or lifting),  
causing the pilot to drop out  
B. Possible blockage of the  
vent terminal  
4. Frequent pilot  
outage  
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame  
impingement on thermocouple and thermopile.  
Check the vent terminal for blockage.

LOCAL. (Fig. 53)  
2. Turn the pilotstat knob counterclockwise from OFF  
to the PILOT position, push the knob down, and hold  
in position. The pilot valve opens and allows gas to  
flow to the pilot burner.  
To shut off the system, turn the pilotstat knob clockwise  
to the OFF position. This action closes the main gas  
and safety valves. The transmitter cannot turn on the  
main burner or fan.  
3. Push plunger on the piezo until the pilot burner is lit.  
When the pilot burner is lit, the LED on the control  
will come on after approximately 40 seconds and will

Maintenance  
Your PDV20 and SDVR Gas Heaters will provide years  
of service with minimal upkeep. The following proce-  
dures will help ensure that your stove continues to  
function properly.  
CAUTION  
TURN THE PILOT OFF BEFORE PAINTING.  
ALLOW THE HEATER TO COOL COMPLETELY  
BEFORE PAINTING.  
Annual System Inspection  
Have the entire heater and venting system inspected  
annually by a qualified gas technician. Replace any  
worn or broken parts.  
Cleaning the Glass  
WARNING: Let the glass cool completely before  
attempting to clean.  
Logset and Burner  
It will be 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 that the glass be  
cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia house-  
hold cleaner and warm water (we recommend gas  
fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should be  
cleaned two or three times during each heating season  
depending on the circumstances present.  
Cleaning and Inspection  
Cleanliness is critical to the proper function of the  
heater. The logset and burner must all be kept free of  
dust and unobstructed by debris. Inspect these areas  
before each use and clean as necessary.  
1. Turn the burner OFF and let the heater cool com-  
pletely before cleaning.  
2. Lift the Stove Front up and then swing the bottom  
out to disengage it from the heater shell. (Fig. 65)  
3. Carefully remove the glass and frame assembly and  
place it out of the way on a flat, padded surface  
such as a counter protected by a towel.  
Clean glass after first two weeks of  
operation.  
4. Carefully inspect the Logs for damage. Contact your  
local dealer if any damage is evident. DO NOT  
Glass Replacement  
OPERATE THE HEATER WITH DAMAGED LOGS.  
Replace glass only with CFM Specialty Home Products  
approved parts. Refer to Page 39 for Replacement  
Parts. Refer to Figure 66 and previous instructions for  
removal of the damaged glass frame.  
5. Use a soft bristled brush to sweep dust or debris  
from the Logs, Pilot and Burner. Use care as the  
logs are fragile and susceptible to damage.  
6. Replace the glass panel and frame assembly.  
7. Replace the Stove Front.  
Care of Cast Iron  
An occasional dusting with a dry rag will help keep the  
painted surfaces looking new. Use high-temperature  
stove paints, available through your local dealer, to  
touch-up areas as needed. Clean areas to be painted  
with a wire brush and be sure to cover the logs, burner  
and valve assembly, glass and frame assembly. Apply  
the paint sparingly; two light coats of paint will give  
better results than a single heavy coat.  
Clean porcelain enamel surfaces with a soft, damp  
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. If neces-  
sary, use only a cleaning agent formulated especially  
for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.

Pinnacle & Stardance Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heaters  
NOTE: Shown  
without top for  
clarity.  
Inspect the Vent System Annually  
Have the vent system inspected annually by a qualified  
technician. Shut off the main gas supply before inspect-  
ing the system. Both the inner exhaust pipe and the  
outer combustion supply pipe must be checked to  
confirm that they are unblocked and in good condition.  
Check the Gas Flame Regularly  
To ensure that the stove is operating properly, check  
ST391a  
the flames periodically to confirm that they match  
Fig. 66 Release the latches to release the glass frame.  
Figures 50-52. The flames will be blue during the first  
15-20 minutes of operation, and will gradually turn to  
yellow after that.  
Gasket Replacement  
The PDV20 and SDVR Gas Heaters use a ‘tadpole’  
type gasket to seal between the glass panel and the  
frame. In time, this gasket can become brittle and  
compressed and should be replaced. New gasket is  
available from your dealer.  
Do not use your stove if the flame pattern differs from  
that shown here. Contact your Vermont Castings dealer  
or a qualified technician for help.  
Shut off the gas supply and allow the stove to cool.  
Wear safety goggles and a dust mask.  
1. Remove the Front, Glass Frame and Glass Panel.  
(Figs. 65, 66) Remove the old gasket. Use a razor  
blade to separate the glass and gasket from the  
frame, and to clean the glass of any remaining  
cement or bits of gasket. Use a cold chisel if neces-  
sary.  
2. Determine the correct length of gasket by laying it  
out around the edge of the glass. Allow an extra 1 -  
2” (25-50mm). Mark the spot to be cut. Use a utility  
knife.  
3. Starting on a long edge, remove about 6” of the  
protective paper strip and apply the flat adhesive  
face of the gasket around the outside-facing edge of  
the panel. Continue around the panel, applying  
about 6” at a time and being careful to not stretch  
the material. Do not overlap the gasket ends. (Fig.  
67)  
Red Glow  
LG140  
Fig. 68 Correct flame pattern.  
4. Apply a thin bead of high temperature silicone  
rubber sealant along the inside corner of the glass  
frame, all around the perimeter. Place the flat  
gasketed side of the glass panel back into the steel  
frame. Pinch the rounded inside-facing gasket  
material to bulk it up.  
5. Replace the glass frame and front panel as previ-  
ously described.

FK28 Fan  
An optional screen, S30SK, for use with the operable  
doors is available for the Stardance only. The screen is  
used when the doors are left in the open position.  
The FK28 fan helps distribute heated air from within  
the firebox out into the room. The fan is controlled by a  
snapstat that turns power on and off as the firebox  
temperature rises above and falls below a preset  
temperature. A rheostat provides for variable fan  
speeds.  
Warming Shelf  
Warming shelves add versatility to your stove; they can  
be used to keep foods warm at mealtime.

The shelf installation is done in three stages. First you  
attach the shelf loosely to the stove, leaving the screws  
loose enough to allow final adjustments. Then, you  
position the shelf and adjust the brackets so the shelf  
fits correctly. Finally, you tighten the screws.  
Installation  
Refer to Page 13 for installation instructions.  
Remote Controls  
The remote control allows you to turn the heater on or  
off from anywhere in the room. Refer to Page 40 for  
wiring diagrams.  
Refer to the instructions included with each warming  
shelf for complete installation procedures.
