General Information
IBV Models IBV-36 and IBV-46 are tested and listed by
PFS Corp., USA Report No. 09-79 to ANSI Z21.50b-2009b-2009
and Canadian Standard CSA 2.22b - 2009. The IBV models are
top-vented, gas only fireplaces that are listed for use only with
the ISOFLAMES Gas Log appliance listed in this installation
manual. These gas appliances come with a gas control valve that
includes an automatic shut-off switch. The gas valve is available
in a millivolt remote control pilot assembly.
The exhaust flue gases are to be vented through the top
of the unit with listed B-Vent piping. A ten inch (10”) diameter,
double wall B-Venting system and a listed vent cap are not
supplied but are required for proper operation of all IBV Models,
36 and 46. See venting instructions on pages 19-21.
WARNING:
This gas appliance must not be connected to a
chimney flue servicing a solid fuel burning appliance.
Intended Use Statement:
The IBV is intended to burn propane (LP) gas or natural gas
(NG), only. This appliance is not intended to be used as a primary
source of heat.
The IBV and its approved components are safe when installed
according to this installation manual and when operated as
recommended by the manufacturer. Unless you use Earthcore
Industries, LLC approved components tested for this appliance,
you may cause a fire hazard or serious injury.

Notes:
The most important areas of concern with the installation of the
top venting IBV are clearance to combustible materials, proper
assembly of component parts, load carrying capacity of underlying
floor system, height of chimney system, hearth extensions and
the techniques employed in applying finishing materials to the
wall surrounding the IBV.
Each of these topics will be covered in detail throughout
this manual. Special attention must be given to each topic as the
installation progresses.
The installation of the IBV must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI-Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the current Natural
