III. CLEARANCES
Figure 11 through Figure 22 will give you the
proper clearances to combustible surfaces, both
for the stove and surrounding areas including
walls, windows, porches, etc. The Parlour B
Vent requires a hearth pad extending the full
width and length of the heater. The Direct Vent
stoves do not require a hearth pad, but it is
highly recommended on carpets, rugs, or any
other soft material. A hearth pad on these
surfaces will give stability to the heater and
prevent tipping. Follow the instructions
carefully when placing the stove near drapes,
furniture, and other combustible material.
IV. GAS HOOK UP
You are required to have a shut-off valve
immediately preceding the flex gas line to the
stove. This valve should be easily accessible and
visually prominent after the installation is
complete. Do not compromise on the placement
of the shut off valve.
The following should
always be strictly adhered to when hooking
up the heater to the gas line:
1. Use yellow Teflon gas tape when making
connections to the stove and valve. Do not
allow pieces of tape or other materials to
enter the pipe and valve openings. Foreign
matter in the pipe of valve openings will
prevent the even flow of gas and create
problems when the stove is burning.
2. Purge the gas line of air before attempting to
light the pilot. Air pockets in the gas line
will create problems when trying to light the
pilot and burner.
3. If you are not certain of the gas pressure for
the stove, always test the pressure before
lighting the pilot. All Thelin Hearth
Products gas valves are equipped with
pressure test ports (see Figure 23 through
Figure 26 for location of ports). With a low-
cost manometer you can make sure the
pressure is correct before lighting the pilot.
See Figure 11 through Figure 22 for the
correct manifold pressure in water columns
for each stove and each fuel, LP or natural
gas.
4. Always check connections for leaks before
lighting stove. We recommend a battery-
operated gas “sniffer,” but liquid soap also
works well for checking the connections for
leaks.
V. LOG INSTALLATION
Figure 30 through Figure 33 show the correct
placement of the logs in the stoves. Incorrect log
installation will create burn problems, sooting,
and clogged burners. Important points to
remember when checking log placement are as
follows:
1. Each stove has a front and rear log. make
sure the front log and rear log are in their
proper places. Consult diagrams if you are
not sure.
2. Make certain the logs do not impinge upon
the flame flow. Logs must not be placed
over the flame so as to obstruct the flame
pattern. Make sure the burners can be seen
through the log openings.
3. If the logs are installed correctly, you will be
able to see the pilot when it is lit. This is
important on start up as you will be able to
watch the pilot as it lights.
