The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Stripsand the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctlypositioned and attached to the top before unitis slipped into position.

Top Standoff Assembly

The top standoffs are shipped in a flat positionand must be folded into shape and attached.

1) Remove the standoffs from the fireplacetop.

2) Take each standoff and bend into the cor-rect shape. Bend up at the bend lines untilthe screw holes in the standoff and the pre-punched screw holes on the fireplace topline up.

3) Attach the standoff securely to the top with2 screws per standoff (on opposite cor-ners).

Top Facing Support andSide Nailing Strips

Determine the total thickness of facing material(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow thefinished surface to be flush with the front of theunit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.

The Top Facing Support & Side Nailing Stripscan be mounted in 3 different positions depend-ing on the thickness of the facing material.

* For "C" screw position the top facing supportis reversed.

1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3supplied screws into the three pre-punchedscrew holes on the top front of the unit. Usehole positions A, B, or C depending on yourfacing depth.

2) Use the same screw hole position for theSide Nailing Strips as was used for the TopFacing Support. Attach each side nailingstrip using 3 screws.

FLUEINGINTRODUCTION

The P36 uses the "balanced flue" technologyCo Axial system. The inner liner flues productsof combustion to the outside while the outer linerdraws outside combustion air into the combus-tion chamber thereby eliminating the need to useheated room air for combustion and losing warmroom air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be con-nected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and flue system must beflued directly to the outside of the building, andnever be attached to a chimney serving aseparate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.Each Co Axial Flue gas appliance must use it'sown separate flue system. Common flue sys-tems are prohibited.

Flues must be installed in accordance withthese instructions and with the specific instruc-tions with each flue kit. Where required alwaysrefer to either AG 601 or NZS 5261:2003.

HORIZONTALINSTALLATIONS

Install the flue system according to themanufacturer's instructions includedwith the components.

1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check todetermine if wall studs or roof rafters are inthe way when the flueing system is at-tached. If this is the case, you may want toadjust the location of the unit. Rough in thegas preferably on the right side of the unitand the electrical (junction block is on the leftside) on the left.

2) Put a bead of silicone inside the outer sectionof the adapter and a bead of Mill-Pac on theinner collar. Slip the adapter over the exist-ing inner and outer flue collar and fasten tothe outer collar only with the 3 suppliedscrews (drilling pilot holes will make thiseasier). Level the fireplace and fasten it tothe framing using nails or screws throughthe nailing strips.

3) Assemble the desired combination of pipeand elbows to the appliance adaptor andtwist-lock for a solid connection.

Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to innerpipe and high temperature siliconesealant to outer pipe.

a) Horizontal runs of flue must be support-ed every three feet. Wall straps areavailable for this purpose.

4) Mark the wall for a 10" x 10" square hole.The center of the square hole should line upwith the centerline of the horizontal pipe. Cutand frame the 10 inch square hole in theexterior wall where the flue will be terminat-ed. If the wall being penetrated is construct-ed of non-combustible material, i.e. mason-ry block or concrete, a 7"(178mm) diameter(7-1/2"(191mm) diameter for flex) hole isacceptable.

Note:

a) The horizontal run of flue must belevel, or have a 1/4 inch rise forevery 1 foot of run towards thetermination. Never allow the flueto run downward. This couldcause high temperatures andmay present the possibility of afire.

b) The location of the horizontal flue termi-nation on an exterior wall must meet alllocal and national building codes, andmust not be blocked or obstructed. ForExternal Flue Terminal Locations, seediagram on page 10.

5) The arrow on the flue cap should bepointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2" clear-ances to combustible materials are main-tained. Install the termination cap, see dia-gram 3.

The four wood screws provided should bereplaced with appropriate fasteners forstucco, brick, concrete, or other types ofsidings.

Note: If installing termination on a sidingcovered wall, a vinyl siding stand-off or furring strips must be usedto ensure that the termination isnot recessed into the siding.

6) Before connecting the horizontal run of fluepipe to the flue termination, slide the WallThimble over the flue pipe.

Diagram 1

INSTALLATION

7) Slide the appliance and flue assembly to-wards the wall carefully inserting the fluepipe into the flue cap assembly. It is impor-tant that the flue pipe extends into the fluecap sufficient distance so as to result in aminimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Se-cure the connection between the flue pipeand the flue cap by attaching the two sheetmetal strips extending from the flue capassembly into the outer wall of the flue pipe.Use the two sheet metal screws providedto connect the strips to the pipe section. SeeDiagram 2.

8) Install wall thimble in the center of the 10"square and attach with wood screws. SeeDiagram 3.

7) Ensure flue is vertical and secure the baseof the flashing to the roof with roofing rails,slide storm collar over the pipe section andseal with a mastic.

8) Install the vertical termination cap.

Note: Any closets or storage spaces,which the flue passes throughmust be enclosed.

Diagram 3Diagram 1

Diagram 2

Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to innerpipe and high temperature sili-cone sealant to outer pipe.

VERTICALTERMINATION

1) Maintain the 1-1/2" clearances(air spaces) to combustibleswhen passing through ceilings,walls, roofs, enclosures, atticrafter, or other nearby com-bustible surfaces. Do not packair spaces with insulation.Check pages 14-15 for the max-imum vertical rise of the flueingsystem and the maximum hor-izontal offset limitations.

2) Set the gas appliance inits desired location. Dropa plumb bob down fromthe ceiling to the positionof the appliance flue exit,and mark the locationwhere the flue will penetrate the ceiling.Drill a small hole at his point. Next, drop aplumb bob from the roof to the hole previ-ously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spotwhere the flue will penetrate the roof.Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters orother framing will obstruct the flueing sys-tem. You may wish to relocate the appli-ance or to offset, as shown in Diagram 2 toavoid cutting load bearing members.

3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in thefloor or ceiling of every level. To install theFirestop spacer in a flat ceiling or wall, cuta 10 inch square hole. Frame the hole asshown in Diagram 3 and install the firestop.

4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe andelbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbowconnections are in the fully twist-lockedposition and sealed.

5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the smalldrilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. Thehole should be of sufficient size to meet theminimum requirements for clearance to com-bustibles of 1-1/2". Slip the flashing underthe shingles (shingles should overlap halfthe flashing) as per Diagram 4.

Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing isinstalled under the roofing material and notnailed down until the chimney is installed.

This allows for small adjustments.

6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.

Note: If an offset is necessary in the atticto avoid obstructions, it is impor-tant to support the flue pipe every3 feet, to avoid excessive stresson the elbows, and possible sep-aration. Wall straps are availablefor this purpose (Diagram 2).

Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roof-line due to its higher corrosion resistance.Continue to add pipe sections through theflashing until the height of the flue cap meetsthe minimum height requirements specified inDiagram 5 or local codes. Note that for steeproof pitches, the vertical height must beincreased. A poor draft, or down draftingcan result from high wind conditions near bigtrees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases,increasing the flue height may solve theproblem.

PRESSURE TESTING

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regu-lator built into the gas control, and should bechecked at the pressure test point.

Note: To properly check gas pressure,both inlet and manifold pressuresshould be checked using the valvepressure ports on the valve.

1) Make sure the valve is in the "OFF" position.

2) Loosen the "IN" and/or "OUT" pressuretap(s), turning counterclockwise with a1/8" 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 "ON"position.

5) The pressure check should be carried outwith the unit burning and the setting shouldbe within the limits specified on the safetylabel.

GAS LINEINSTALLATION

The gas line can be brought through either theright or the left side of the appliance. The gasvalve is situated on the right hand side of theunit and the gas inlet is on the right hand sideof the valve.

Note: If the gas line is being installedfrom the left side, be sure to leaveroom to accommodate servicingof the fan.

The gas line connection may be made of rigidpipe, copper pipe or an approved flex connec-tor. (If you are using rigid pipe, ensure that thevalve can be removed for servicing.) Sincesome municipalities have additional local codesit is always best to consult with your localauthorities and the AG 601 or NZS 5261 instal-lation code.

When using copper or flex connectors useonly approved fittings. Always provide a unionso that gas lines can be easily disconnected forservicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and flexconnectors are usually considered to meet thisrequirement.

Important: Always check for gas leakswith a soap and water solution or gasleak detector. Do not use open flame forleak testing.

WIRING

CAUTION: Label all wires prior todisconnection when servicing con-trols. Wiring errors can cause im-proper and dangerous operation.

This heater does not require a 240V A.C. supplyfor the gas control to operate. A 240V A.C.power supply is needed for the fan/bloweroperation.

Caution: Ensure that the wires donot touch any hot surfaces and areaway from sharp edges.

WARNING: Electrical Grounding InstructionsThis appliance is equipped with a three pronged (grounding) plug for yourprotection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properlygrounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prongfrom this plug.

NOTE: Switch must bein "OFF" position tooperate remote.

Masport P36-3 Gas Inbuilt 27

SHUTDOWNPROCEDURE

1) Turn OFF the flame switch.

2) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to "OFF"position.

FIRST FIRE

The first fire in your stove is part of the paintcuring process. To ensure that the paint isproperly cured, it is recommended that you burnyour fireplace for at least four (4) hours the firsttime you use it with the fan on.

When first operated, the unit will release anodour caused by the curing of the paint, theburning off of any oils remaining from manufac-turing. Smoke detectors in the house may go offat this time. Open a few windows to ventilate theroom for a couple of hours.

The glass panel may require cleaning after theunit has cooled down. DO NOT ATTEMPTTO CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT ISHOT.

Note: When the glass is cold and theappliance is lit, it may cause con-densation and fog the glass. Thiscondensation is normal and willdisappear in a few minutes as theglass heats up.

DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCEWITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT INPLACE.

During the first few fires, a white filmmay develop on the glass front as partof the curing process. The glass shouldbe cleaned or the film will bake on andbecome very difficult to remove. Usea non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER cleanthe glass while it is hot.

NORMAL OPERATINGSOUNDS OF GAS

APPLIANCES

It is possible that you will hear some soundsfrom your gas appliance. This is perfectly nor-mal due to the fact that there are various gaugesand types of steel used within your appliance.Listed below are some examples. All are nor-mal operating sounds and should not beconsidered as defects in your appliance.

Blower:Masport gas appliances use high tech blowersto push heated air farther into the room. It is notunusual for the fan to make a "whirring" soundwhen ON. This sound will increase or decreasein volume depending on the speed setting ofyour fan speed control.

Burner Tray:The burner tray is positioned directly under theburner tube(s) and logs and is made of adifferent gauge material from the rest of thefirebox and body. Therefore, the varying thick-nesses of steel will expand and contract atslightly different rates which can cause "tick-ing" and "cracking" sounds. You should also beaware that as there are temperature changeswithin the unit these sounds will likely re-occur.Again, this is normal for steel fireboxes.

Blower Thermodisc:When this thermally activated switch turns ONit will create a small "clicking" sound. This is theswitch contacts closing and is normal.

Pilot Flame:While the pilot flame is on it can make a very slight"whisper" sound.

Gas Control Valve:As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, adull clicking sound may be audible, this is normaloperation of a gas regulator or valve.

Unit Body/Firebox:Different types and thicknesses of steel willexpand and contract at different rates resultingin some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will beheard throughout the cycling process.
