5 2 Getting Started A. Design and Installation Considerations Heatilator B-vent gas appliances are designed to operate with all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of the building, and combustion air pulled from the room. CAUTION Check building codes prior to installation. Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier, local building, fire offi cials or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection, and permits. When planning an appliance installation, it s necessary to determine the following information before installing: Where the appliance is to be installed. See Sections 3 and 4. The vent system confi guration to be used. See Sections 5 and 6. Gas supply piping. See Sections 7 and 9. Electrical wiring. See Sections 7 and 10 Framing and finishing details. See Sections 3, 6 and 11. Whether optional accessories devices such as a fan, wall switch, or remote control are desired. See Section 10. Keep appliance dry. Mold or rust may cause odors. Water may damage controls. Heatilator Caliber Multi-Sided B-Vent Rev H 11/07 5

6 B. Negative Pressure Asphyxiation Risk Negative pressure can cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot. Fire needs to draft properly for safe operation. Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent fi replaces successfully. Considerations for successful draft include: Preventing negative pressure. Location of fi replace and chimney. Negative Pressure Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the fi replace to operate properly. Causes for this imbalance include: Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.). Range hoods. Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters and other combustion appliances. Clothes dryers. Location of return-air vents to furnace or air conditioning. Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system. Upper level air leaks (recessed lighting, attic hatch opening, duct leaks). To minimize the effects of negative air pressure, the following must be considered: Install the outside air kit. Install the intake on the side of the house towards prevailing winds during the heating season. Ensure adequate outdoor air is supplied for combustion appliances and exhaust equipment. Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not located in the immediate vicinity of the fi replace. Avoid installing the fireplace near doors, walkways or small isolated spaces. Recessed lighting should be a sealed can design; attic hatches weather stripped or sealed; attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and seams taped or sealed. Basement installations should be avoided due to stack effect. Stack effect creates negative pressure in lower levels. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends the use of direct vent fi replaces in basements. Location of the fi replace and chimney will affect performance. As shown in Figure 2.1 the chimney should: Be installed through the warm airspace enclosed by the building envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially during lighting and die-down of the fi re. Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the effects of wind turbulence. Be located away from trees, adjacent structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions. Offsets can restrict draft so their use should be minimized. Consider the fi replace location relative to fl oor and ceiling and attic joists.

9 B. Construct the Appliance Chase A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the gas appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that run on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to be, installed inside a chase. Construction of the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Local building codes MUST be checked. Chases should be constructed in the manner of all outside walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting problems. The chase should not break the outside building envelope in any manner. Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever fl oor of the chase should be insulated. Vapor and air infi ltration barriers should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for the rest of the home. Additionally, Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the inside surfaces be sheetrocked and taped (or the use of an equivalent method) for maximum air tightness. To further prevent drafts, gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with high temperature caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement slab, we recommend that a layer of plywood be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room. Fire Risk Fire Risk Odor Risk Construct chase to all clearance specifi cations in manual. Locate and install appliance to all clearance specifi cations in manual. Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces extending full width and depth of appliance. Do NOT install appliance directly on carpeting, vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than wood.

High Altitude Installations U.L. listed gas appliances are tested and approved without requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2000 ft in the USA and Canada. When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 ft, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifi ce to a smaller size. Input rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 ft above a 2000 ft elevation in the U.S.A., or 10% for elevations between 2000 and 4500 ft in Canada. If the heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify the proper orifi ce size, check with the local gas utility. If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 ft (in Canada), check with local authorities. A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When fi rst lighting appliance it will take a short time for air to purge from lines. When purging is complete the appliance will light and operate normally. CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS Fire Risk Explosion Risk Asphyxiation Risk Check all fi ttings and connections. Do not use open fl ame. After the gas line installation is complete, all connections must be tightened and checked for leaks with a commercially available, non-corrosive leak check solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following testing. Fittings and connections may have loosened during shipping and handling. Fire Risk Explosion Risk Do NOT change the valve settings. This valve has been preset at the factory. Changing valve settings may result in fire hazard or bodily injury. 20 Heatilator Caliber Multi-Sided B-Vent Rev H 11/07
