American National Standards Institute Inc. or National Fire Protection Association Inc.

1430 Broadway Batterymarch Park

New York, NY 10018 Quincy, MA 02269

The appliance and its individual shutoff 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). The appliance must be

isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 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). When

installed with a blower the junction box must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local

codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current ANSI / NFPA 70 National Electric Code. In the case

where the blower is equipped with a power cord it must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle.

The grounding prong must not be removed from the cord plug.

As long as the required clearance to combustibles is maintained,

the most desirable and beneﬁcial location for the appliance is in the

center of a building, thereby allowing the most efﬁcient use of the

heat created. The location of windows, doors and the trafﬁc ﬂow in

the room where the appliance is to be located should be considered.

If the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other

combustible material other than wood ﬂooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel

extending the full width and depth. NOTE: This does not apply to stoves.

* Air shortage caused by an inadequate air supply, improper log positions, the addition of foreign or

unapproved materials or the failure to properly maintain the appliance, may result in incomplete combustion of

the fuel. Incomplete combustion results in soot being deposited inside the ﬁrebox as well as surfaces outside

the appliance. If any soot deposits are observed, shut off the appliance immediately and arrange for it to be

serviced by a qualiﬁed technician.

W415-0297 / P / 02.03.12

The GVF36 is rated at 30,000 BTUs per hour and therefore requires a minimum unconﬁned space of 1,500

cubic feet.

17.1A

This appliance shall not be installed in a con

ﬁ

ned space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are

provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 deﬁnes a conﬁned space as a space whose volume is

less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances

installed in that space and an unconﬁned space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per

1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space.

Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not

furnished with doors are considered a part of the unconﬁned space.

3.0 INSTALLATION

3.1 COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR PROVISIONS

To determine the volume o

the room where the appliance is to be installed, multiply the width x the length x

the ceiling height of that room measured in feet. If any adjoining rooms are connected by grilles or openings

such as kitchen pass-throughs, etc., the volume of those rooms may be added to the total.

Multiply the room volume by 1000 and divide this amount by 50 to determine the maximum BTU/hr that the

space can support with adequate combustion and ventilation air.

dd the Btu/hr of all fuel burning appliances located within the space such as gas furnace, gas water

appliance, etc. Do not include direct vent gas appliances which draw their input and output air from and to the

outdoors.

Unusually tight construction is deﬁned as construction where:

A) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapour retarder with a

rating of 1 perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and

B) Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors, and

C) Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole

plates and ﬂoors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical,

and gas lines, and at other openings.

n unvented room appliance is recommended for use as a secondary heat source rather than as a primary

source. Gas combustion produces water vapour which could occur at the rate of approximately one ounce of

water for every 1,000 BTU/hr of gas input. During the cold weather season, indoor humidity levels tend to be

low. Consequently, this water vapour can enhance the living space. However if a problem should occur:

A) Ensure sufﬁcient combustion and circulation air

B) Use a dehumidiﬁer

C) Do not use the unvented room appliance as a primary heat source

Without sufﬁcient fresh air for proper operation, poor fuel combustion can result. Carbon Monoxide is a result

of poor combustion.

If additional fresh air is required, use one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1 / NFPA54 or the applicable local code.

WARNING

IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE APPLIANCE MAY BE OPERATED IS SMALLER THAN THAT DEFINED AS

AN UNCONFINED SPACE OR IF THE BUILDING IS OF UNUSUALLY TIGHT CONSTRUCTION, PROVIDE

ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR BY ONE OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED IN THE

NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 , AIR FOR COMBUSTIONAND VENTILATION, OR THE

APPLICABLE LOCAL CODE.

IF THE AREA IN WHICH THE APPLIANCE MAY BE OPERATED DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIRED VOLUME

FOR INDOOR COMBUSTION AIR, COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR SHALL BE PROVIDED BY ONE

OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED IN THE ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54, THE INTERNATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE,

OR APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES.

3.2 DETERMINING CONFINED OR UNCONFINED SPACE

W415-0297 / P / 02.03.12

19.2

EXAMPLE 1:

In this example, because there is no door to the adjoining room, the volume of the adjoining room may be

added to the volume of the room with the heater to get a total unconﬁned space.

The total unconﬁned space: 800 + 1200 = 2000 cubic feet.

Maximum BTU/h: 2000x1000 = 40,000 BTU/h

If there are no more fuel burning appliances within this space then the 30,000 BTU/h input of the appliance is

suitable to be installed. This also assumes that the construction of this space is not unusually tight.

19.3

EXAMPLE 2:

If in this example a solid door separates Room 1 from Room 2, the volume of Room 2 could not be used. In

this case the maximum BTU/h would be:

Maximum BTU/h: 800x1000 = 16,000 BTU/h

This would be considered a conﬁned space since it can not support the 30,000 BTU/h input of the appliance

and it would be necessary to provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to Room 1.

19.1B

Room Volume = Length x Width x Height

Max BTU/hr = Room Volume x 1000 / 50

LENGTH

HEIGHT

ROOM 2

ROOM 1

WIDTH

If for example:

The length of the rooms is 10 feet,

The width of Room 1 is 10 feet,

The width of Room 2 is 15 feet,

The height of the rooms is 8 feet.

The volume of Room 1: 10x10x8 = 800 cubic feet

The volume of Room 2: 10x15x8 = 1200 cubic feet

W415-0297 / P / 02.03.12

3.3 GAS INSTALLATION

30.1A

Installation and servicing to be done by a qualiﬁed installer.

A. Move the appliance into position and secure.

B. If equipped with a ﬂex connector the appliance is designed to accept a 1/2” gas supply. Without the

connector it is designed to accept a 3/8” gas supply. The appliance is equipped with a manual shut off

valve to turn off the gas supply to the appliance.

C. Connect the gas supply in accordance to local codes. In the absence of local codes, install to the

current CAN/CSA-B149.1 Installation Code in Canada or to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1 / NFPA 54 in the United States.

D. When ﬂexing any gas line, support the gas valve so that the lines are not bent or kinked.

E. The gas line ﬂex-connector should be installed to provide sufﬁcient movement for shifting the burner

assembly on it’s side to aid with servicing components.

F. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution. Do not use open ﬂame.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE, EXPLOSION OR ASPHYXIATION. ENSURE THERE ARE NO IGNITION SOURCES SUCH AS

SPARKS OR OPEN FLAMES.

SUPPORT GAS CONTROL WHEN ATTACHING GAS SUPPLY PIPE TO PREVENT DAMAGING GAS LINE.

ALWAYS LIGHT THE PILOT WHETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME OR IF THE GAS SUPPLY HAS RUN OUT

WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPENED OR REMOVED. PURGING OF THE GAS SUPPLY LINE SHOULD BE

PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN. ASSURE THAT A CONTINUOUS GAS FLOW IS AT

THE BURNER BEFORE CLOSING THE DOOR. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. FOR GAS AND

ELECTRICAL LOCATIONS, SEE “DIMENSION” SECTION.

ALL GAS CONNECTIONS MUST BE CONTAINED WITHIN THE APPLIANCE WHEN COMPLETE.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL DAMAGE VALVE. DISCONNECT GAS SUPPLY PIPING BEFORE TESTING GAS
