B. Design and Installation Considerations

Heat & Glo direct vent gas appliances are designed to op-

erate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the

building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside of

the building. No additional outside air source is required.
Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and

national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier,

local building inspector, fire officials or authorities having

jurisdiction over restrictions, installation inspection and

permits.
Before installing, determine the following:
•  Where the appliance is to be installed.
•  The vent system configuration to be used.
•  Gas supply piping requirements.
•  Electrical wiring requirements.
•  Framing and finishing details.
•  Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,

wall switch, or remote control—are desired.

D. Inspect Appliance and Components

• Carefully remove the appliance and components from

the packaging.

• The vent system components and decorative doors and

fronts may be shipped in separate packages.

• If packaged separately, the log set and appliance grate

must be installed.

particularly the condition of the glass.

Read all of the instructions before starting the instal-

lation. Follow these instructions carefully during the
