STOVE INSTALLATION (CONT.) - For qualified installers only! PAGE 7

Heater Placement Requirements

¥Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent

¥Due to the high temperature of the heater, it should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies. Heater must be placed so no combustibles are within, or can swing within 36" of the front of the heater (e.g. drapes, doors)

?When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet , the installation is considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:

¥The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 58" tall

¥The alcove must not be more than 45" deep (before the ceiling returns to 7 feet)

¥The alcove must be at least 44" wide

¥The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or along the back of the heater can become blocked.

Floor Protection

¥When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 23-3/4" wide by 18-5/8" deep).

Gas Line Installation

!The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI Z223.1 and the requirements listed below.

!The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures under 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.

¥This heater is designed for natural gas but can be converted to propane. Check the sticker on the top of the gas control valve to make sure the correct fuel is used.

¥Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the heater.

¥The gas inlet accepts a 3/8" F.P.T. fitting

¥The location of the gas inlet is shown below

¥A manual shutoff valve is required for installation (it must be located within 3' of the heater)

Gas Inlet Pressure

¥With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below

?If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.

?The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.

 

Standard Input Pressure

Natural Gas

7" W.C.

Propane

11" W.C.
