A. Design and Installation Considerations

Hearth & Home Technologies direct vent gas appliances
are designed to operate with all combustion air siphoned
from outside of the building and all exhaust gases ex-
pelled to the outside. No additional outside air source is
required.

The Twilight-II-B has been carefully engineered to pro-
vide a unique fi replace experience. Since it is different
than any other product on the market, care must be taken
when installing this appliance so that our customer does
not experience undesirable performance or conditions.

1. Install the appliance according to this Owner’s Guide

paying particular attention to fl ashing and sealing in-
structions.

2. In the cold northern climates pay attention to expo-

sures and prevailing wind conditions when locating the
appliance, the same as you would for locating exterior
windows and doors.

The Twilight-II-B has the thermal characteristics of a high
quality window system. Temperatures near the appliance will
be cooler than what is realized with a fully insulated wall.

Operation of the appliance will eliminate any cool drafts
and will provide the room with a comfortable ambiance.

Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier,
local building inspector, fi re offi cials or authorities having
jurisdiction over restrictions, installation inspection and
permits.

Before installing, determine the following:

• Where the appliance is to be installed.

• Gas supply piping requirements.

• Electrical wiring requirements.

• Framing and fi nishing details.

• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a fan,

wall switch, or remote control—are desired.

C. 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.

• Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,

particularly the condition of the glass.

Read all of the instructions before starting the instal-

lation. Follow these instructions carefully during the
installation to ensure maximum safety and benefi t.

WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! Damaged parts
could impair safe operation. DO NOT install damaged, in-
complete or substitute components. Keep appliance dry.
