 P40 Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

INST

ALLA

TION

The  P40  uses  the  "balanced  fl ue"  technology 
Co Axial system. The inner liner vents products 
of combustion to the outside while the outer 
liner draws outside combustion air into the 
combustion chamber thereby eliminating the 
need to use heated room air for combustion and 
losing warm room air up the chimney.

The gas appliance and vent system must be 
vented directly to the outside of the building, 
and never be attached to a chimney serving a 
separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. 

* For "C" screw position the top facing support 
is reversed.

Note: For screw position C with a facing 
material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm), the top 
facing support must be reversed.

NOTE: The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing 
Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly 
positioned and attached before unit is slipped 
into position. 

The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position 
and must be folded into shape and attached.

1)  Remove the standoffs from top of the 

fi replace.

2)  Take each standoff and bend into the correct 

shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the 
screw holes in the standoff and the pre-
punched screw holes on the fi replace  top 
line up. 

3)  Attach the standoff securely to the top 

with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite 
corners).

Determine the total thickness of facing material  
to allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with the 
front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary 
from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick. 

The Top Facing Support & Side Nailing Strips can 
be mounted in 3 different positions depending 
on the thickness of the facing material.

 

1)  Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 

supplied screws into the three pre-punched 
screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use 
hole positions A, B, or C depending on your 
facing depth.

2)  Use the same screw hole position for the 

Side Nailing Strips as was used for the Top 
Facing Support. Attach each side nailing 
strip using 3 screws.

Vent restriction is required for certain venting 
installations, see the diagrams in the "Venting 
Arrangements" section to determine if they are 
required for your installation. 

To set the Vent restriction as indicated in the 
diagrams in the "Venting Arrangements" section,  
refer to the instructions below;

1)  Remove the top louver if installed.
2)  Loosen the screw on the vent restrictor 

indicating plate.

3)  Rotate the vent restrictor adjustment rod 

counter clockwise to line up the slot on the 
indicating plate with the point on the air box 
to the required setting.

4)  Tighten screw to lock position.

Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own 
separate vent system. Common vent systems 
are prohibited.

Note: When installing side strips into 
position C, the side strips are not reserved.
