Quadra-Fire • QV-PIER, QV-ST Series: HV-IPI • 2005-901 Rev. G • 2/06

Appliance Certification

The Quadra-Fire fireplace models discussed in this Installers

Guide have been tested to certification standards and listed

by the applicable laboratories.

Certification

MODELS: QV-PIER-HV-IPI, QV-ST-HV-IPI

LABORATORY: Underwriters Laboratories

TYPE: Vented Gas Fireplace Heater

STANDARD: ANSI Z21.88•CGA2.22•UL307B

Installation Codes

The fireplace installation must conform to local codes. Before

installing the fireplace, consult the local building code

agency to ensure that you are in compliance with all

applicable codes, including permits and inspections.

In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation must

conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (in the

United States) or the CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Codes

(in Canada). The appliance must be electrically grounded

in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local

codes with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70

(in the United States), or to the CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric

Code (in Canada).

These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting

room in the U.S.A. and Canada.

Approvals and

Codes

High Altitude Installations

U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved with-

out requiring changes for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in

the U. S. A. and in Canada.

When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2,000

feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by

changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input

rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a

2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. or 10% for elevations

between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada. If the heating value

of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To

identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas

utility.

If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4,500 feet

(in Canada), check with local authorities.

Quadra-Fire • QV-PIER, QV-ST Series: HV-IPI • 2005-901 Rev. G • 2/06

Getting Started

Introducing the Quadra-Fire Gas Fireplaces

Quadra-Fire direct vent gas fireplaces are designed to op-

erate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the

building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside.

The information contained in this Installers Guide, unless

noted otherwise, applies to all models and gas control

systems. Gas fireplace diagrams, including the dimensions,

are shown in this section.

Pre-install Preparation

This gas fireplace and its components are tested and safe

when installed in accordance with this Installers Guide.

Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,

particularly the condition of the glass. Do not install any

unit with damaged, incomplete, or substitute parts.

The vent system components are shipped in separate pack-

ages. The gas logs are packaged separately and must be

field installed.

Read all of the instructions before starting the instal-

lation. Follow these instructions carefully during the

installation to ensure maximum safety and benefit.

Failure to follow these instructions will void the own-

er’s warranty and may present a fire hazard.

The Quadra-Fire Warranty will be voided by, and Quadra-

Fire disclaims any responsibility for, the following actions:

• Installation of any damaged fireplace or vent system

component.

• Modification of the fireplace or direct vent system.

• Installation other than as instructed by Quadra-Fire.

• Improper positioning of the gas logs or the glass door.

• Installation and/or use of any component part not manu-

factured and approved by Quadra-Fire, not withstanding

any independent testing laboratory or other party approval

of such component part or accessory.

ANY SUCH ACTION MAY POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE

HAZARD.

When planning a fireplace installation, it’s necessary

to determine:

• Where the unit is to be installed.

• The vent system configuration to be used.

• Gas supply piping.

• Electrical wiring.

• Framing and finishing details.

• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,

wall switch, or remote control—are desired.

If the fireplace is to be installed on carpeting or tile,

or on any combustible material other than wood

flooring, the fireplace should be installed on a metal

or wood panel that extends the full width and depth

of the fireplace.

Step 3. Installing the Vent System

A. Vent System Approvals

These models are approved to use DVP series direct vent

pipe components and terminations (see Figures 6 and 7).

Approved vent system components are labeled for identifi-

cation. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved com-

ponent of the fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside

an enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection

openings at each joint within the wall. There is no required

pitch for horizontal vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYS-

TEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.

Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent

termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this

Installers Guide.

The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the

type of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.

Identifying Vent Components

The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in-

clude one, two, or three 90°

elbow assemblies. The rela-

tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura-

tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The

rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings

and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.

NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one

90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must

be followed if 45° elbows are used.

This model has 45

elbow built into this unit. It may be

positioned to vent either horizontal or vertical. Depending

on the installation, decide which direction the elbow should

be facing. Remove the 8 screws from the corner cover plate.

Position the 45

elbow as desired and replace the corner

cover plate with the 8 screws.

NOTE: On vertical venting

configurations you may

want to install the flue re-

strictor (385-128). See flue

restrictor installation in-

structions.

Flue Restrictor Instructions

1. Locate the flue restrictor which is in the manual

bag.

Figure 9

2. Break the Flue Restrictor into two pieces. Do this

by bending the part back and forth until it breaks

(see Figure 10).
