High Altitude Installations
Appliance Certification
The Heat-N-Glo fireplace models discussed in this Installers
Guide have been tested to certification standards and listed
by the applicable laboratories.
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.
Certification

LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories
TYPE: Direct Vent Gas Fireplace Heaters
STANDARD: ANSI Z21.88CSA2.33
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%).
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.
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.
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 CSAC22.1 Canadian Electric
Code (in Canada).
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting
room in the U.S.A. and Canada.

The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless
noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control
systems. Gas fireplace diagrams, including the dimensions,
are shown in this section.
Installation and/or use of any component part not manu-
factured and approved by Heat-N-Glo, not withstanding
any independent testing laboratory or other party approval
of such component part or accessory.
Pre-install Preparation
This gas fireplace and its components are tested and safe
when installed in accordance with this Installers Guide.
Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,
particularly the condition of the glass. Do not install any
unit with damaged, incomplete, or substitute parts.
ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE
HAZARD.
When planning a fireplace installation, its necessary to
determine:
The vent system components and trim doors are shipped
in separate packages. The gas logs may be packaged
separately and must be field installed.
Where the unit is to be installed.
The vent system configuration to be used.
Gas supply piping.
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
owners warranty and may present a fire hazard.
Electrical wiring.
Framing and finishing details.
Whether optional accessoriesdevices such as a fan,
wall switch, or remote controlare 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.

Step 1.
Locating the Fireplace
The distance from the unit to combustible construction
is to be measured from the unit outer wrap surface to
the combustible construction, NOT from the screw
heads that secure the unit together.

Clearance Requirements
Step 2. Framing the Fireplace
The top, back, and sides of the fireplace are defined by
stand-offs. The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall
extending past the face of the fireplace is one inch (25 mm).
The back of the fireplace may be recessed 21 1/2 inches
(546 mm) into combustible construction.
Fireplace framing can be built before or after the fireplace is
set in place. Framing should be positioned to accommo-
date wall coverings and fireplace facing material. The dia-
gram below shows framing reference dimensions.

Step 3. Installing the Vent System
A. Vent System Approvals
These models are approved to use D-series direct vent pipe
components and terminations (see Figures 4 and 5).Approved
vent system components are labeled for identification. This
pipe is tested and listed as an approved component of the
fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed
wall. There is no requirement for inspection openings at each
joint within the wall. There is no required pitch for horizontal
vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYSTEMS OR COMPO-
NENTS MAY BE USED.

component is over 10
feet, you may want to
install the vertical baffle
included in the manual
bag assembly to improve
flame appearance.
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 relation-
ships 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.

2. Fasten the shield in place using the four pilot holes pro-
vided in the part. The shield should be oriented such that
the 13 1/8 inch dimension (longest dimension) is run-
ning in the same direction the elbow is pointing. The
shield should be centered directly above the elbow, and
positioned so that it creates a 1/2 inch airspace between
the shield and the combustible surface. See Figure 12.
2. Continue Adding Vent Components
WARNING: INSTALLATION OF THE 7000XLT
!
FIREPLACE REQUIRES THE USE OF HEAT
SHIELD 570-290 ABOVE THE FIRST 900 ELBOW IN
THE VENTING SYSTEM. (HEAT SHIELD NOT RE-
QUIRED FOR 6000XLTB).
Continue adding vent components, locking each succeed-
ing component into place.
Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure-
ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the
vent system.
To Install the Heat Shield:
1. Determine if the heat shield is required. Do so by mea-
suring the vertical distance between the top horizontal
surface of the elbow to any combustible surface above.
If the distance is more than 4 inches, the heat shield is
NOT required. If it is 4 inches or less, the heat shield IS
REQUIRED. Install per the following steps. See Figure 11.
90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point
around the preceding components vertical axis. If an el-
bow does not end up in a locked position with the pre-
ceding component, attach with a minimum of two (2)
sheet metal screws.

frame. Lift trim door up and out of the unit (see Figure
30).
Place dime size pieces of ember material about 1/2 inch
apart near port holes in burner top. Do NOT press em-
bers into burner ports. Cover the top of the burner with a
single layer of ember material. For best performance do
NOT place embers on the ports at the rear of the burner.

Step 12. Lighting the Fireplace
Step 11. Before Lighting the Fireplace
Youve reviewed all safety warnings, youve checked the
fireplace for gas leaks, you know the vent system is
unobstructed, and youve checked for faulty components.
Now youre ready to light the fireplace.
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
Read the Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
WARNING: PLEASE REFER TO THE USERS
MANUAL FORALL CAUTIONS, SAFETY, AND
WARNING INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE
LIGHTING AND OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE.
!
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.
Step 13. Heating Control
These models are equipped with a baffle which will
allow you to control usable heat output. The baffle
control lever is located at the lower left corner of the
unit behind the lower grille. See Figure 32.
Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter-
minations or the front grilles.
Double-check for faulty components
Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-
placed with an approved component. Tampering with the
fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all war-
ranties.
FOR LESS HEAT: Push the baffle lever back and up
to lock. This will open the baffle.
FOR MORE HEAT: Pull the baffle lever forward and
down. This will close the baffle.
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.

Maintaining and Servicing Your Fireplace
4
Fireplace Maintenance
Although the frequency of your fireplace servicing and main-
tenance will depend on use and the type of installation, you
should have a qualified service technician perform an appli-
ance check-up at the beginning of each heating season.
See the table below for specific guidelines regarding each
fireplace maintenance task.
IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE GAS BEFORE SERVICING
YOUR FIREPLACE.
Replacing old ember material
Frequency: Once annually, during the checkup.
By: Qualified service technician.
7000XLT
Task: Brush away loose ember material near the burner.
Replace old ember material with new dime-size and shape
pieces of Golden Ember (DE-93) and Glowing Ember (050-
721). New ember material should be placed alternately on
top of the burner - a layer of Golden Ember, a layer of
Glowing Ember, and so on. Save the remaining ember
material and repeat this procedure at your next servicing.
For more information, see Placing Ember Material.
Cleaning Burner and Controls
Frequency: Once annually.
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment, fireplace
logs and burner areas surrounding the logs.
Checking Flame Patterns, Flame Height
Frequency: Periodically.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Make a visual check of your fireplaces flame patterns.
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating.
