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.
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).
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4,500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.
These models (natural gas and propane) can be installed in

The vent system components and trim doors are shipped
in separate packages. Log installation instructions are pro-
vided in the manual bag assembly shipped with the unit.
• Where the unit is to be installed.
• The vent system configuration to be used.
• Gas supply piping.
Read all of the instructions before starting the
installation. Follow these instructions carefully during
the installation to ensure maximum safety and benefit.
Failure to follow these instructions will void the
owner’s warranty and may present a fire hazard.
• 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

A 4-inch side collar/damper (found in AK-TV Kit) must be
installed on the fireplace by attaching the side collar to the
outer wrap of the fireplace at the right-hand rear corner using
sheetmetal screws. See Figure 4. Attach one end of a 4-
inch flexible air duct (not provided in the AK-TV Kit) to the
side collar and the other end of the duct to the make-up air
termination cap. Use plastic tie straps to secure the ends
of the flex duct to each collar.
Step 3. Negative Pressure Make-up Air
Negative Pressure warning: When negative pressure is
present, an atmospherically vented fireplace (with a draft
hood) may not function properly and it may down draft. In
the case of a gas appliance, spillage of the combustion
gases may occur. This may create a dangerous carbon
monoxide situation in the house.
The causes of negative pressure to a house can include
the following:
Air Damper
•
•
Stack effect in the building.
Before lighting the burner, open the damper. Close the
damper when the burner is off.
Exhaust only appliances (mechanically and
atmospherically vented).
Detailed installation instructions for Model AK-TV Outside
Air kit are found in the kit.
•
Inadequate make-up air (which is increasingly
more prevalent in new construction).
NOTE: This fireplace will operate correctly only if adequate
ventilation is provided to allow proper draft to the fireplace
system. Heat-N-Glo assumes no responsibility for the
improper performance of the fireplace system caused by
inadequate draft due to environmental conditions, down
drafts, tight sealing construction of the structure, or
mechanical exhausting devices which create a negative air
pressure within the structure where the fireplace is located.
It is recommended that all natural venting non-air tight gas
fireplaces have outside air connected to them. It is also
recommended that the building be mechanically or passively
balanced to allow atmospherically vented appliances, such
as top vented gas fireplaces with draft hoods, to draft
properly. If the home experiences negative pressure or is
likely to experience negative pressure, connection to an
outside air source is mandatory.
AIR DAMPER
ASSEMBLY
Installing Optional Outside Make-up Air:
This unit is equipped to accept outside air. By using outside
make-up air, the amount of room air used for combustion
will be reduced. It is recommended that an AK-TV air kit be
used with this appliance.

3 Volt Transformer
Wiring to the battery pack should be left disconnected in
order to conserve battery life. In the case of a loss of power,
simply connect red and black wire leads to activate battery
power (connect red to red, black to black). The fireplace
can be used as necessary. Once power (110 VAC) is re-
stored, disconnect red and black wire leads to extend bat-
tery life.
This appliance comes with a 3 volt transformer found in the
manual bag. Plug the transformer leads to the green con-
trol module (see Figure 12). Then plug the transformer into
the side outlet on the junction box.
Appliance Requirements
Optional Accessories
This appliance requires that 110-120 VAC be wired to the
junction box included in the manual bag assembly. Maintain

Step 12. Before Lighting the Fireplace
Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the following:
Remove all paperwork from underneath the fireplace.
Review safety warnings and cautions
LATCHES
(BOTH BOTTOM
AND TOP)
• Read the Safety and Warning Information section at
the beginning of this Installers Guide.
Double-check for gas leaks
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible gas leaks.
GLASS
ASSEMBLY
Double-check vent terminations and front grilles for
obstructions.
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent ter-
minations or the front grilles.
Figure 15. Glass Assembly
Double-check for faulty components
Glass Specifications: TEMPERED
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE re-
placed with an approved component. Tampering with the
fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids all war-
ranties.
Heat-N-Glo fireplaces manufactured with tempered glass may
be installed in hazardous locations such as bathtub enclo-
sures as defined by the CPSC. The tempered glass has
been tested and certified to the requirements of ANSI Z97.1-
1984 and CPSC 16 CFR 1202. (Safety Glazing Certification
Council SGCC # 1595 and 1597. Architectural Testing, Inc.
Reports 02-31919.01 and 02-31917.01.)
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When
first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is
complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally.
This statement is in compliance with CPSC 16 CFR Sec-
tion 1201.5 “Certification and labeling requirements” which
refers to 15 USC 2063 stating “…Such certificate shall ac-
company the product or shall otherwise be furnished to any
distributor or retailer to whom the product is delivered.”
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which
case the air would have to be purged.
Some local building codes require the use of tempered glass
with permanent marking in such locations. Glass meeting
this requirement is available from the factory. Please con-
tact your dealer or distributor to order.
NOTE: The fireplace should be run 3 to 4 hours on the initial
start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely. Remove and
clean the glass. Replace the glass and run the fireplace for
an additional 8 hours. This will help to cure the chemicals
used in the paint and logs.
During this break-in period it is recommended that some
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate
any odors associated with the fireplace’s initial burning.
Step 13. Lighting the Fireplace
You’ve reviewed all safety warnings, you’ve checked the
fireplace for gas leaks, you know the vent system is
unobstructed, and you’ve checked for faulty components.
Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.

Maintaining and Servicing Your Fireplace
4
Fireplace Maintenance
MAKE SURE THE FLAMES ARE STEADY—NOT
LIFTING OR FLOATING.
Although the frequency of your fireplace servicing and main-
tenance will depend on use and the type of installation, you
should have a qualified service technician perform an appli-
ance check-up at the beginning of each heating season.
See the table below for specific guidelines regarding each
fireplace maintenance task.
IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE GAS BEFORE SERVICING
YOUR FIREPLACE.
Replacing old ember material
Frequency: Once annually, during the checkup.
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Brush away loose ember material near the burner.
Replace old ember material with new dime-size and shape
pieces of Golden Ember (GE-93) and Glowing Ember (050-
721). New ember material should be placed alternately on
top of the burner - a layer of Golden Ember, a layer of
Glowing Ember, and so on. Save the remaining ember
material and repeat this procedure at your next servicing.
For more information, see Placing Ember Material.
Figure 17.
Burner Flame Patterns
Cleaning Burner and Controls
Frequency: Once annually.
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment, fireplace
logs and burner areas surrounding the logs.
Checking Vent System
Frequency: Before initial use and at least annually
thereafter, more frequently if possible.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to
ensure that no debris is interfering with the flow of air. Inspect
entire vent system for proper function.
Cleaning Flame Sensor Rod (IPI Systems)
Frequency: Annually.
By: Qualified service technician.
Task: Make a visual check of the straight flame sensor rod
(see Figure 33). Use emery cloth to carefully remove any
existing film or white deposits.
Cleaning Glass Door
Frequency: After the first 3 to 4 hours of use. As neces-
sary after initial cleaning.
Checking Flame Patterns, Flame Height
By: Home owner.
Task: Remove and clean glass after the first 3 to 4 hours of
use. After the initial cleaning, clean as necessary, particu-
larly after adding new ember (flame colorant) material. Film
deposits on the inside of the glass door should be cleaned
off using a household glass cleaner. NOTE: DO NOT handle
or attempt to clean the door when it is hot and DO NOT
use abrasive cleaners.
Frequency: Periodically.
By: Qualified service technician/Home owner.
Task: Make a visual check of your fireplace’s flame patterns.
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating.
See Figure 17. The flame sensor (DSI) or thermopile/
thermocouple (standing pilot) tips should be covered with
flame. See Figure 8.
