Install the Vent Pipe

Apply a bead of sealant around bottom end of inner starter pipe (found in bag with logset) and attach to stove. Apply a bead of sealant around top of inner starter pipe and install the Z31D00 FSDHAG Draft Hood according to Draft Hood instructions. (Fig. 33)

Attach the first section of venting to the draft hood. De- pending on the length of the individual venting sections and the lengths of the decorative pipe (if installed), you may need to slip the decorative pipe over the venting sections before attaching upper sections to lower ones. The sections of decorative pipe should be oriented with their seams (if any) toward the wall; sections usually do not need to be fastened at each joint, other than slip sections. If the layout includes a slip section, this should be the last section of pipe visible in the room, at the ceiling. Complete the venting according to the vent maker’s instructions.

Install the Log Set

1.Remove the logs from their packaging, and inspect each piece for damage. DO NOT INSTALL DAM-

AGED LOGS.

2.Install the rear log centering it side to side on the sheet metal shelf at the back of the firebox. (Fig. 34) The log will touch both sides and the back wall of the firebox.

3.Install the right log by engaging hole on bottom with pin on the rear log. (Fig. 34) Then set right bottom side on the burner so the edge of the log touches the right side of the firebox. The right log does not use the locator pins on the burner to stay in place.

4.Install the left log by engaging hole on bottom with pin on rear log. (Fig. 34) Then set left bottom side on the burner so the edge of the log touches the left side of the firebox.

5.Loosely sprinkle the lava rocks directly on top of the burner in front of and between the decorative grate and the right and left logs. Use the lava rock to cover brackets on the burner. (Fig. 35)

Connect the Gas Supply Line

Check the Rating Plate attached by a steel cable to the firebox, to confirm that you have the appropriate firebox for the type of fuel to be used. The Stardance may be converted from one gas to another using the appropri- ate Fuel Conversion Kit listed on Page 39.

CAUTION

This appliance should only be connected by a qualified gas technician. Test to

confirm manifold pressures as specified below.

The Stardance 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 Stardance 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 3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” natural gas supply line with an input of 28,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 3.5” and minimum inlet sup- ply for adjustment of 5.5” w.c.

In order to connect Propane, use a fitting with 3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” pro- pane gas supply line with an input of 28,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” and minimum inlet supply for adjustment of 11.0” w.c.
