These are a few facts that can help you un-

derstand and enjoy your direct-vent fireplace:
•  The venting system may be routed to the 

outside of your home in several ways. It 

may  vent  through  the  roof  (vertical)  or  it 

may vent to an outside/exterior wall (hori

-

zontal). The vent pipe installation is very 

important  to  allow  for  proper  operation. 

You  must  follow  the  venting  instructions 

very carefully for either vertical or horizontal 

applications.

•  This fireplace may be installed in any room 

of your house provided all local codes and 

these installation instructions are followed.

•  The blower requires electricity. If you plan 

to install the blower at a later date, do not 

forget to wire the outlet at the bottom of the 

fireplace when framing.

•  Each time you turn on your fireplace, you 

may notice some amount of condensation 

on the inside of the fireplace glass. This 

is normal and will disappear after 10-20 

minutes of operation.

•  Your  direct-vent  gas  fireplace  system 

(fireplace and venting) is a balanced and 

sealed gas operating unit. It requires ap

-

proximately 10-20 minutes of operating 

time before the flame pattern stabilizes.
