Vermont Castings Pinnacle & Stardance Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heaters

Stove Disassembly

If there is ever a need to remove the firebox assembly from the stove shell, support the firebox with solid stands about 6” (150mm) tall under the left and right outer edges of the firebox base. Do not set the firebox assembly directly on the floor; this can damage the control valve and/or the gas lines from the valve to the firebox.

Before removing the firebox from the shell, disconnect the on/off switch wires from the valve. If the assembly includes the optional fan, disconnect the fan rheostat. If the installation includes a wall thermostat, disconnect the thermostat leads from valve.

Disconnection and reconnection to the gas line should only be done by a qualified gas service technician.

Upon reinstallation, the vent system must be sealed to the firebox as shown in the installation section, page

18.Also be sure the logs are placed in the firebox correctly, as shown in Figures 51-54, page 27.
