Alpine Supply Company 42 Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Gas piping must conform to the current National Fuel

Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

Always consult with the local code official for additional

local codes applicable in your area.

IMPORTANT: Always check for gas leaks with a soap

and water solution or gas leak detector. Never use open

flame for leak testing.

NOTE: To properly check gas pressure, both inlet

and manifold pressures should be checked using the

valve pressure ports on the control valve.

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator built

into the gas control, and should be checked at the

pressure test point.

1) Make sure the valve is in the “ OFF” position.

2) Loosen the “IN” and/or “OUT” pressure tap(s),

turning counterclockwise with a 1/8” wide flat

screwdriver.

3) Attach manometer to “IN” and/or “OUT” pressure

tap(s) using a 5/16” ID hose.

4) Light the pilot and turn the valve to the “ON”

position.

5) The pressure check should be carried out with the unit

Burning and the setting should be within the limits

specified on the safety label.

6) When finished reading the manometer, turn off the gas

Valve. Disconnect the hose and tighten the screw

(clockwise) with a 1/8” flat screwdriver.

Note: screw

should be snug. But do not over tighten

HEARTH MATERIALS

A Hearth is not mandatory with the ASC-42 series

fireplace, but is recommended for aesthetics and for

added safety .

Non-combustible materials such as Tile, Brick, Rock, and

Slate are recommended. The appliance should not be

installed over existing carpeting.

In constructing a hearth, hearth material thickness must

be taken into consideration. Avoid using any material that

will block the front of the valve access door at the bottom

of the fireplace.

NOTE: If the appliance is to be installed on carpeting,

vinyl tiling, or any other combustible material other

than wood flooring, the appliance must be installed on

a metal or wood panel extending the full width and

depth of the appliance.
