Fig. 4 Typical gas supply installation.

The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.

The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro- vide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.

When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 4) See the gas specifica- tions for pressure details and ratings.

Remote ON/OFF Switch Installation

Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for this gas appliance into a 120v power supply.

1.Thread wire through the electrical knockout located on either side of the unit. Take care not to cut the wire or insulation on metal edges. Ensure the wire is secured and protected from possible damage. Run one end of the gas control valve and the other end to the conveniently located wall switch.

2.Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install switch into receptacle box. Attach cover plate to switch.

3.Connect wiring to gas valve. (Fig. 5)

EB-1 Electrical Box

The fireplace, when installed, must be elec- trically connected and grounded in accor- dance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code.

For USA installations, follow local codes and the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA No. 70.

It is strongly suggested that the wiring of the EB-1 electrical junction box be carried out by a licensed electrician.

Ensure that the power to the supply line has been disconnected before commenc- ing this procedure.

The EB-1 electrical junction box has been supplied standard on the NV360/580 models to allow for the easy installation of an optional fan kit.

To connect the EB-1 box to the house electrical supply, follow the steps below:

1.Unscrew the retaining screw from the EB-1 base plate (fig. 7) and remove the EB-1 assembly from the fireplace.

2.Remove the front cover of the EB-1 box.

3.Remove the plug socket assembly form the EB-1 box.

4.Feed the supply line in from the outside through the cable clamp. (Fig. 7)

5.Connect black wire of the power supply line to the brass screw (polarized) of the socket assembly.
