B. DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM
The GBi25 Series is a B-vent gas-fired room heater.
Combustion air is supplied from inside the house.
This HEATILATOR system must consist of the following:
1. Appliance
2. B-Vent Venting System
3. Termination
4. Surround
HIGH TEMPERATURE SEALANT MATERIAL
Sealants that will withstand high temperatures: General
Electric RTV103 (Black), or equivalent. Rutland, Inc.
Fireplace Mortar #63 or equivalent; Dow Corning 732 or
equivalent.
We strongly recommend that you DO NOT install B-Vent
Gas Appliances in strong negative air locations, such
as a basement or a public facility. Living rooms with
cathedral ceilings could be susceptible to a negative
air situation, but such installations can be overcome
through raising the termination, depending on specific
installations. This fireplace uses room air for normal
operation and could have problems establishing a
positive draft in negative air locations. In lieu, we
recommend a direct vent appliance.

The illustrations and diagrams used throughout these
