DV360/580 Series Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
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).
Gas Line Installation
When purging gas line the front glass must be removed.
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the right side of the appliance. Knockouts are provided at conve- nient locations to allow for the gas pipe installation and testing of any gas connection.
The gas line connection can be made with properly tinned 3/8” copper tubing, 1/2” rigid pipe or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have addi- tional local codes, it is always best to consult your local authority and the
For USA installations consult the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution applied with a brush no larger than 1” (25 mm). Never apply soap and water solution with a spray bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.
The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro- vide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 6) See the gas specifica- tions for pressure details and ratings.
