This mixture is suitable for application onto Isokern components by using a masonry grout bag supplied with the unit. Attention should be paid that the Adhesive mixture is not too thin or runny, as this will not allow the Adhesive to reach its maximum bonding strength. Mark out the position of the base plate on the supporting floor system. Apply a thin layer of Earthcore Earthcore Adhesive to the area and set base plate in the Adhesive. Adhesive (Figure 6) Earthcore Adhesive is then squeezed from a grout bag onto the contact surfaces of the Isokern components as FIGURE 6 they are fitted together. NOTE: It is important that a 1/2" bead of Adhesive is piped onto all the components' contact surfaces, about 1/2" in from all edges. (Figure 7) Earthcore Adhesive Earthcore When setting the next component onto the Adhered contact surface of the base plate, some Adhesive should Adhesive squeeze out along the face of the entire joint as a sign of complete and proper sealing of the joint. On broader contact surfaces it is advisable to apply several additional 1/2" beads of the Earthcore Adhesive to the area to assure proper sealing of the joint. Properly Adhered firebox and smoke dome assembly requires approximately 100 pounds (dry measure) of Earthcore Adhesive. Leveling and Aligning Components: FIGURE 7 Be sure to assemble all Isokern components level and flush with adjoining components. Earthcore Adhesive is not intended to create a Adhesive joint of any thickness for leveling purposes. Therefore, leveling and alignment adjustments are made by the use of small plastic shims supplied with the unit. (Figure 8) 41100 The shims can be inserted under a component to level and align it with adjacent Isokern components. Be sure to re-grout any and all gaps resulting from shim insertion to maintain components to full bearing. Broken Components: Components can be repaired by using Earthcore Adhesive along the break line as the component is set into place. Components broken into multiple small pieces should be discarded and replaced. IMPORTANT: 1.Do not mix Earthcore Adhesive with anti-freeze agents. 2.The maximum recommended Adhesive joint thickness FIGURE,8 at Isokern components is 1/4'.' 10/29/2020 13 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Earthcore Industries BVETTO B-Vent Gas Fireplace 11/2018 Assembly Instructions - BVETTO B-Vent Series The following assembly instructions identify the parts by name, part number and the placement of each part in the assembly process.

This makes the fireplace finished fire brick floor approximately one and one-half \/ inches (1-1/2") above the top of the concrete support slab. The noncombustible hearth material will butt tight against the fire brick floor. (Figure 10)Raised Hearth: If the design preference is for a raised hearth (floor -� of the fireplace elevated above the room's floor), then the base plate can be set on a noncombustible platform FIGURE 10 iup 1 that is built up to the desired raised hearth height on the concrete support slab.

(Figure 12-13) \ Adhesive NOTE: It may be convenient to dry set the first course of I� side walls and back walls into place on the Isokern base Part#20 plate and then trace their position on the base plate with a pencil. • After outlining the dry set pieces, remove them and \ apply Earthcore Adhesive to the areas traced on the base plate where the side walls and back wall are to sit. By doing this, the first layer of wall components can be set directly into Adhesive already applied to the proper areas on the base plate. 3. It is required that the two supplied high temperature wires be routed from the inside of the BVETTO as follows: Once the lowest, left hand side wall firebox FIGURE 12 component is set in place (left,when facing the fireplace) drill a 1/4" - 3/8" dia. hole in the inner face of this side wall located four to six inches (4" -6") out from the back Earthcore wall of the BVETTO and at three to four inches (3" -4") Adhesive above the BVETTO base plate.

Bring the two lengths of wire up and out through the top of the side wall component (Figure 14). NOTE: For Seismic Installation - With the Seismic installation the opening in the sidewalls are used to anchor the Isokern Fireplace to the floor with rebarb and Part#20 backfilled with concrete. The high tempertaure wires will need to be run outside of the Isokern unit and not through the openings in the sidewall. The wires will be run through the bottom course of the sidewall and out to the side of the Isokern Fireplace. FIGURE 13 Another 1/4" hole should be drilled in the first course of side sloping to attach to the high temperature wires to the high temp lintel for the High Temperature switch. 3. Continue assembly of the consecutive courses of the firebox side wall and back wall.Apply Adhesive to the top '1 \ \ of each layer of wall components, set the next course above into place. Be sure to Adhesive all vertical joints of the side wall to back wall connection when setting each component to its mate. (Figure 15) �.

Exterior metal parts, with exception of the top portion of the chimney cap, can be painted with a high temperature rust proof paint. Wash the metal surface with a vinegar and water solution to remove any residue before painting. Painting the chimney will help to increase chimney life. Interior chimneys shall be enclosed where they extend through closets, storage areas, occupied spaces, or anywhere the surface of the chimney could be contacted by persons or combustible materials. The air space between the outer wall of the chimney and the enclosure shall not be less than 1 inches. Except for installation in one or two family dwellings, a factory built chimney that extends through any zone above that on which the connected appliance is located is to be provided with an enclosure having a fire resistance rating equal to or greater than that of the floor or roof assemblies through which it passes. In cold climates, chimneys mounted on an outside wall should be enclosed in a chase. Exterior chases reduce condensation and enhance draft.

The EcoDamper System quietly manages a perfect draft and prevents conditioned air from escaping through the chimney when the fireplace is not in use. It eliminates the need for glass doors, opening up many new design EXH0021 RS 9 Chimney Fan options while allowing for a larger view area of the fire and a more natural look. The system consists of the RS 9 Chimney Fan, the Mechanical Fireplace Damper (MFD), the ADC100 Control and the PDS-1 Proven Draft Switch. RS 9 Chimney Fan Made of high quality, recycled cast aluminum, RS 4111140611111° Chimney Fans keep the perfect draft for a long time.The EXH2810 24 MFD Mechanical Fireplace Damper fan features a quiet, enclosed pre-lubricated motor and is recommended to be used with gas or oil fireplaces, stoves, ovens, furnaces, water heaters, BBQs and pizza ovens. MFD Mechanical Fireplace Damper The low profile Mechanical Fireplace Damper (MFD) ADC100• is an accessory to be used in conjunction with an ADC100 control and a chimney fan as part of the EcoDamper and EXH0060 ADC100 Draft Control Intellidraft System.This damper prevents conditioned air (includes PDS-1) from escaping through the chimney when the fireplace is not in use and eliminates the need for glass doors. ADC100 Draft Control The ADC100 Control, for gas appliances, has pre- , • and postpurge features, an integrated damper relay and includes a draft switch that shuts the appliance off when EXH1130 PDS-1 Proven Draft Switch (included with ADC100) there isn't enough draft, protecting your family from • dangerous flue-gasses. PDS-1 PROVEN DRAFT SWITCH Use the PDS-1 Proven Draft Switch to provide protection from insufficient draft.When there is an unsafe draft, the switch shuts down the gas-fired appliance or fireplace. Installations must conform to requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Where required by the authority having jurisdiction, the installation must also conform to the Standard for Draft Equipment and The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. All electrical wiring must be in accordance with the requirements of authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, with the National Electrical Code, NFPA70.
