Pinnacle & Stardance Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heaters

Pinnacle / Stardance

Direct Vent / Rear Vent

Certified to:

ANSI Z21.88b-2002 / CSA Z2.33b-2002

Vented Gas Fireplace Heaters

The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition. (EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for altitude. Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5” w.c. for Natural Gas and 10” w.c. for Propane.)

High Elevations

Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are certified without deration for elevations up to 4,500 feet (1,370m) above sea level.

For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m) in USA, installations must be in accordance with the current ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes having jurisdiction.

In Canada, please consult provincial and/or local authorities having jurisdiction for installations at elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m).

WARNING: Improper installation, adjust- ment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual for correct installation and operational procedures. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.

Horizontal Termination

The vent must rise vertically a minimum of 24” (610mm) after the first elbow directly off the back of the unit, before the next elbow. The horizontal run may extend up to 20’ (6m) and include a vertical rise of up to 40’ (12m). (Fig. 7) Horizontal termination must also meet the criteria shown in Figures 9 and 10.

•Approved vent systems must terminate above and including the heavy line in Figure 7.

•Two 45° elbows may be substituted for each single 90˚ elbow.

•With a rise between 2' - 5', one 90° or two 45° elbows may be used (Excluding the first elbow directly off the back of the unit.
