Checking Manifold Pressure

Both Propane and Natural gas valves have a built-in pressure regulator in the gas valve. Natural gas models will have a manifold

pressure of approximately 4.0” w.c. (.996kPa) for DVC-35T and 3.5” w.c. (.871kPa) for DVC-35IPT at the valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 5.0” w.c. (1.245kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of 7.0” w.c. (1.743kPa). Propane gas models will have a manifold pressure approximately 10.0” w.c. (2.49kPa) at the valve outlet with the inlet pressure to the valve from a minimum of 11.0” w.c. (2.739kPa) for the purpose of input adjustment to a maximum of 13.0” w.c. (3.237kPa).

A1/8” N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, is located on the outlet side of the gas control.

The built-in regulator comes on at approximately 1/4th pressure and full on in 10 seconds.

CLEARANCES

Clearances

1.In selecting a location for installation, it is necessary to provide adequate accessibility clearances for servicing and proper installation. A front clearance of 36” is recommended. Do not block outlet or inlet air openings on the front grill.

2.The DV4T-59-1, 5” to 9” wall depth is the standard vent kit provided with the DVC-35T orDVC-35IPT. SeeAccessories Page 6 to order vent kits for wall depths of 8” to 12” or 12” to 19”. The use of tubes not supplied by the manufacturer results in unsatisfactory performance.

3.The DVC-35T and DVC-35IPT can be attached to the wall or recessed into the wall up to 9 1/2” in depth but the minimum 5” vent/air intake system wall depth must be maintained. Example: If furnace is recessed into the wall at a depth of 9 1/2”, the minimum wall depth behind the furnace must be 5”.

4.The wall in which the furnace is recessed has (0) zero clearance to the furnace sides and top.

5.When using side discharge registers, SOR-1 or SOK-1, the furnace cannot be recessed into the wall.

6.Clearance to sidewall or combustible material is 4”.

7.Ceiling clearance is 4”.

8.Floor and rear wall clearance is (0) zero inches.

9.Clearance of 18” is required to sidewall or combustible material when flush mounted SOR-1, side outlet register is used.

10.The minimum distance from the center of the vent cap to the nearest outside corner or obstruction is 12”.

Figure 4

The vent terminal of this direct vent appliance shall be located at least 9” from any opening through which flue gases could enter a building. The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12” above grade. See vent location, Figure 4.

WARNING: The nearest point of the vent cap should be a minimum horizontal distant of six (6) feet from any pressure regulator. In case of regulator malfunction, the six (6) feet distance will reduce the chance of gas entering the vent cap.

DVC-35T-1, DVC-35IPT-1 specifications

Empire Products has long been recognized for its commitment to delivering high-quality heating solutions, and two notable offerings are the DVC-35T-1 and DVC-35IPT-1 gas-burning direct vent fireplaces. These units are designed to provide both comfort and aesthetic appeal, making them excellent choices for any home environment.

The DVC-35T-1 model boasts a classic design, paired with modern efficiency. With a heat output of 35,000 BTUs, it effectively warms spaces up to 1,100 square feet, ensuring even heat distribution throughout the room. One of the standout features is its advanced venting system, which allows for horizontal or vertical venting options, making it versatile for different installation layouts. The DVC-35T-1 also comes equipped with an adjustable flame control, enabling users to customize the ambiance to their preference. Its glass viewing area enhances the overall aesthetic while providing a full view of the flames.

On the other hand, the DVC-35IPT-1 model features an innovative design that incorporates a premium fireplace insert. This unit is specifically engineered to fit into existing fireplaces, transforming traditional wood-burning setups into efficient gas-burning heating sources. Like its counterpart, the DVC-35IPT-1 offers a maximum heat output of 35,000 BTUs, providing substantial warmth tailored for spaces up to 1,100 square feet. It is equipped with a state-of-the-art electronic ignition system, which ensures reliable and easy starts every time. The unit also includes a decorative log set that adds to its realism and charm, allowing for a cozy, inviting atmosphere.

Both models prioritize efficiency, with an impressive thermal efficiency rating, which not only helps in reducing heating costs but also makes them environmentally friendly options. The incorporation of a sealed combustion system ensures that indoor air quality is maintained, as it draws outside air for combustion and expels exhaust gases outdoors.

In addition to their technical features, the DVC-35T-1 and DVC-35IPT-1 are designed with user convenience in mind. Remote control capabilities allow for effortless operation, while easy maintenance ensures that homeowners spend less time worrying about upkeep and more time enjoying their fireplaces.
