Radiance Direct Vent/Natural Vent Gas Heater
CAUTION
This appliance should only be connected by a qualified gas technician. Test to confirm manifold pressures as specified below.
The Radiance Heater and its individual shutoff 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 (3.5 kPa).
The Radiance Heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi- vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
There must be a gas shutoff between the stove and the supply.
In order to connect Natural Gas, use a fitting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” natural gas supply line with an input of 35,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 3.5” between minimum inlet supply of 5.5” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.
In order to connect Propane, use a fitting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” propane gas sup- ply line with an input of 35,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” between a minimum inlet supply of 11.0” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.
Burner Information
The appliance must only use the gas specified on the rating plate, unless converted using a Vermont Castings Fuel Conversion Kit. To convert from LP to Natural Gas use Kit
Conversion instructions are provided with each kit and beginning on Page 29 in this manual.
THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE CON- NECTED TO THE GAS SUPPLY ONLY BY A QUALIFIED GAS SERVICE TECHNICIAN. FOLLOW ALL LOCAL CODES.

Wire / Gauge | Maximum Run |
18 | 20 feet |
16 | 20 - 40 feet |
14 | up to 60 feet |
1.Install the wall thermostat in the desired location and run the wires to the stove location. Terminate these leads with 1/4” female connectors.
2.Connect the thermostat wires to the valve. (Fig. 43)
Install the Mesh and Grille
Place the mesh and grille on the top of the Radiance stove to complete assembly.
