PRODUCT FEATURES
PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION
OPERATION
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and
Ventilation.
This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is
noheatlossoutaventorupachimney.Heatisgeneratedbyrealistic,
dancing yellow flames. This heater is designed for vent-free opera-
tion. Stateandlocalcodesinsomeareasprohibittheuseofvent-free
heaters.
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation
classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconfined Space
SAFETY PILOT
3. Confined Space
This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS)
safety shutoff system. The ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-
free room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there is not
enough fresh air.
The information on pages 4 through 6 will help you classify your
space and provide adequate ventilation.
Unusually Tight Construction
PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM
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.
This heater has a piezo ignitor. This system requires no matches,
batteries, or other sources to light heater.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction
where:
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION
a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere
have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating
of one perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with
openings gasketed or sealed and
WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in
a confined space or unusually tight construction
unless provisions are provided for adequate com-
bustion and ventilation air. Read the following in-
structions to insure proper fresh air for this and
other fuel-burning appliances in your home.
b. weather stripping has been added on openable win-
dows 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.
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New
materials, increased insulation, 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.
If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you
must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air
From Outdoors, page 6.
If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above,
proceed to Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Heater Loca-
tion, page 5.
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.
Confined and Unconfined Space
Exhaustfans,fireplaces,clothesdryers,andfuelburningappliances
drawairfromthehousetooperate.Youmustprovideadequatefresh
air for these appliances. This will insure proper venting of vented
fuel-burning appliances.
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a
confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet
per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating
of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as
aspacewhosevolumeisnotlessthan50cubicfeetper1,000Btuper
hour (4.8 m3 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.

amount of Btu/Hr used.

Determining if You Have a Confined or
Unconfined Space
Use this work sheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space.
Space:Includestheroominwhichyouwillinstallheaterplusanyadjoining
rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
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:
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).
Length x Width x Height = ___________ cu. ft. (volume of space)
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 6.
Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling
height) = 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or open-
ings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ventilation Air From Out-
doors, page 6.
2. Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine the maximum Btu/Hr
the space can support.
C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr size makes room
unconfined.
__________ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space
can support)
If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can
support, thespaceisanunconfinedspace. Youwillneednoadditionalfresh

Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) x 20 = 51,200 (maximum

Installation must include a equipment shutoff valve, union, and
plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge
hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from heater (see Figure 21 on
page12forSVYD18PR/NRandFSVYD18PR/NRseries,orFigure
22 on page 12 for SVYD18P/N and FSVYD18P/N series).
* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT
tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase
the optional CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve from
your dealer. See Accessories, page 35.
The gas inlet connection for the stove heater is located on the lower
right-hand side of the stove when viewed from the front of the unit.
Thegasconnectioncanbemadeeitherthroughthebottomrightside
or through the lower back opening as illustrated in Figure 19. Make
sure gas log heater is secured to the stove cavity assembly.
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve in an accessible
location. The equipment shutoff valve is for turning on or shutting
off the gas to the appliances.
Checkyourbuildingcodesforanyspecialrequirementsforlocating
equipment shutoff valve to fireplaces.
For propane/LP units, installer must supply an external regulator.
Theexternalregulatorwillreduceincominggaspressure. Youmust
reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches of water.
Ifyoudonotreduceincominggaspressure,heaterregulatordamage
could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down
as shown in Figure 20. Pointing the vent down protects it from
freezing rain or sleet.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent
excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could
result in clogged heater valves.
WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant
to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections,
internal and external to unit, for leaks after installing
or servicing. Correct all leaks at once.
WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for
a leak. Apply a noncorrosive leak detection fluid to
all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all
leaks at once.
CAUTION: Avoid damage to regulator. Hold gas
regulator with wrench when connecting it to gas
piping and/or fittings.
