tains proper clearances to air conditioning ducts, electrical
wiring and plumbing. Safety, as well as eciency of opera-
tion, must be considered when selecting the replace loca-
tion. Try to select a location that does not interfere with
room trac, has adequate ventilation

The VL36BN is certied for use with standard 4” and 5” inch
B-Vent, and requires no B-Vent appliance connector. Simply
attach the B-Vent to the replace ue collar, and secure it
using 1/4” sheet metal screws.
Refer to the current CAN/CGA B-149.1 or ANSI Z223.1 /
NFPA54, gas Installation Code for specic vent sizing.
Notes:
The replace requires a MIN. 12’-0” feet vertical
rise in order operate correctly.
If more than 12’-0” feet of B-Vent is used on vent
runs, use ceiling supports.
For reducing to the 4”B-Vent, use the BV increas-
ing adapter on top of the 5” Fireplace ue collar.
Fireplace can be supplied with the 4” or the 5” col-
lar from the factory.
4” B-Vent installation
See the detailed drawings below and determine which
installation best suits your application. Follow all the pre-
scribed details installations as shown. Failing to do so can
create an unsafe condition, which to lead to a re, safety
hazard, injury or death.

after a ten (10) minute warm up period. The manufac-
turer will not be responsible for any installations with
inadequate draw.
ATTENTION
Testez votre installation B-Vent après l'achèvement de

To check for proper drafting use this procedure.
1). Place unit in operation and allow to run for approximately

2). Using a match or something that will produce smoke,
place it up to the opening of the draft hood and verify that
the ame or smoke is being drawn into the draft hood. If the

Finishing Around the Fireplace
Combustible mantels and mouldings may be safely installed
over the top and on the front of the replace. The VL36BN
requires a minimum 2”x 38”L. Non-combustible board on
top of the upper ange.
Mantels & Surrounds
NOTE: National Canadian Gas Association mantel test
requirements are for re hazard prevention to combustible
materials.
New technology, to meet consumer and government
demands for the wise use of energy, has prompted us to
manufacture many models of replaces which are hot, fuel
and energy ecient.
Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above
normal room temperature and walls above replace may be
hot to touch.
We recommend careful consideration be given to the eects
of elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of
product design, for example: candles, plastic or pictures. This
can cause melting, deformation, discoloration or premature
failure of T.V. and radio components.
Section 4: Finishing
Figure 13. Combustible framing clearances above replace.
Painting:
Special care is recommended by the Master Painters and
Decorators Association, when painting the replace sur-
rounds, to select and apply a quality Alkyd sealer prior to the
applying of latex paints. This is to prevent leaching of water
from evaporation and causing a brownish staining eect to
paint over coats.

When selecting the nish material for your replace, it
is important to remember the following: THE RELIEF
OPENING MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED IN ANY WAY - to
do so restricts the air supply for the draft hood and heat
exchanger it also prevents access for servicing of the limit
switch.
The face of the replace may be painted to match the room
decor, provided you use a heat-resistant paint. Decorative
facing must not extend past the replace opening at all,
because it will interfere with the access to retainers for
removal of glass door.

DO NOT COVER the lower Access Cover, as shown in
Figure No. 13. The result will be an obstruction of the
incoming Combustion Air, and A FIRE COULD RESULT.

ttings. Always provide a union so that gas line can be
easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. See gas
specication for pressure details and ratings.
4. When a vertical section of gas pipe is required for the
installation, a condensation trap is needed. See CAN/CGA-
B149.1 or .2 for code details.
5. For natural gas, a minimum of 3/8” iron pipe with gas
minimum pressure of 5.5 w.c. must be used for supply from
the gas meter. Consult with the local gas utility if any ques-
tions arise concerning pipe sizes.
6. 1/8” NPT plugged tappings are accessible for test gauge
connection both on the inlet and outlet of the gas valve.
7. Turn the gas supply ON and check for leaks. DO NOT USE
OPEN FLAME FOR THIS PURPOSE. Use an approved leak
testing solution.
8. The appliance and its individual shuto valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
9. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual shuto valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
