2 Getting Started
A. Design and Installation Considerations
Heat & Glo direct vent gas appliances are designed to
operate with all combustion air siphoned from outside
of the building and all exhaust gases expelled to the
outside. 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.
Electrical wiring requirements.
Framing and finishing details.
Whether optional accessories—devices such as a
wall switch or remote control—are desired.

performed by qualified personnel. Hearth & Home
