Specific Requirements for the Common Wealth of Massachusetts The information in this section applies to all installations performed in the Common Wealth of Massachusetts only. a) For all side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment installed in every dwelling, building or structure used in whole or in part for residential purposes and where the side wall exhaust vent termination is less than seven (7) feet above grade, the following requirements shall be satisfied: 1.
SAFETY AND WARNING INFORMATION READ and UNDERSTAND all instructions carefully before starting the appliance. FAILURE TO FOLLOW these instructions may result in a possible fire hazard and will void the warranty. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced before operating this appliance. DO NOT USE this appliance if any part has been under water.
CONGRATULATIONS You are the owner of a world-class heat producing gas direct vent sealed combustion fireplace. This elegant, highly efficient Fireplace will be a constant source of comfort and fascination. It will be the focal point of beauty and interest in your home. The Mendota Gas Fireplace is a true heating appliance incorporating the traditional aesthetics of fireplace fire viewing with the controllability and fuel efficiency of a home gas furnace.
GENERAL INFORMATION Your Mendota Gas Fireplace has a state-of-the-art co-axial direct vent, sealed combustion system. This advanced, highly efficient system brings in outside air for combustion and efficiently heats and re-circulates room air. The Mendota system maintains high air quality, maximizes efficiency and assures proper operation in today's "tight" homes. SAFETY AND STRUCTURAL CONCERNS This Fireplace must be installed and serviced by a Mendota approved service person.
VENT OPTIONS DISCUSSION This Mendota Fireplace can be vented using AMERIVENT, DURAVENT, SELKIRK METALBESTOS, SECURITY CHIMNEY and ICC brands of coaxial pipe off the top. Use only Mendota specified vents and vent caps when installing your fireplace. Closely follow venting locations, directions and requirements provided in this Manual. Observe the restrictions related to vent position on exterior of home. Make certain that all vent pipe sections are fully twist-locked and leak-proof.
GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Correct gas pressure and proper gas supply line sizing is imperative to the successful performance of your Mendota gas fireplace. Be sure the gas supplier or plumber carefully checks for correct gas pressure and gas line sizing when installing the fireplace. It is critical to carefully check for gas leaks when hooking up the fireplace -- check with soap & water solution. Be sure to install "approved" flex gas line with brass-to-brass fittings to prevent gas leaks at connections.
GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS A MAJOR CAUSE OF OPERATING PROBLEMS WITH GAS APPLIANCES CAN BE IMPROPER GAS PRESSURE! Problems such as changes in flame color or flame height, pilot or burner outages, intermittent operation, changes in heat output, excessive burner noise, etc. are nearly always the result of changes in gas pressure or improper gas pressure at the time of the installation.
EXTERIOR VENT LOCATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS Figure 2: Exterior Vent Locations ALL MEASUREMENTS GIVEN ARE FROM THE CENTER LINE OF VENT CAP ∨ - Vent Terminal A= ∧ - Air Supply Inlet ≡ - Area where terminal is not permitted Clearance above grade, veranda, porch, deck, or balcony (*12 inches (30 cm) minimum). Vinyl surfaces require 24” min. Clearance to window or door that may be opened (*12 inches (30 cm) minimum.
GENERAL FLUE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS The Mendota Fireplace must be vented using Amerivent, Duravent, Selkirk Metalbestos, Security Chimney or ICC Brand venting systems.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: Each installation must conform to all local, state and national codes. Refer to the national fuel gas code and local zoning and code authorities for details on installation requirements. The Mendota Fireplace must be vented to the outside in accordance with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code. In the absence of local codes, the installation must conform to the most current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1, also known as NFPA 54.

NOTE: This requires 22” minimum height to center of vent cap.
MINIMUM RISE THROUGH-THE-WALL VENTING: The minimum vertical rise for vent installation through the wall is 16 1/4" from the top of the fireplace to the centerline of the 90ºelbow in installations where only a 6” (or 7”) horizontal vent section is used (refer to chart on PG.16 when using horizontal sections). NOTE: We recommend always using the most vertical rise the installation will allow. This maximizes efficiency and flame appearance.

ELEVATED VERTICAL RISE THROUGH-THE-WALL VENTING The required MINIMUM vertical rise is 48 in. when used with a maximum horizontal run of 12 ft. For other venting configurations within these maximum limits, see Figure 6, PG. 18. NOTE: All horizontal runs of vent pipe must be level or have a ¼" rise for every 1' of run toward the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward. This will cause high temperatures and the possibility of a fire.
VERTICAL THROUGH-THE-ROOF VENTING The maximum vertical run of vent pipe is 55 ft. from the top of the fireplace. The fireplace will support a run of a maximum of 55 ft. The vent system must be supported every 3 feet using Support Straps. Maintain 1" air space clearances on all sides of vent components that are positioned vertically and 3” above horizontal pipe sections and components. THIS FIREPLACE MUST BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED MENDOTA APPROVED SERVICEPERSON. 1. 2. 3. 4.

With good quality batteries, you can expect proper operation for periods in excess of 2 weeks. These batteries are only utilized during power outages.
BLOWER OPERATION AND WIRING WARNING: The Electrical Junction box within this appliance must be connected to a grounded LIVE power circuit. No switches, Light Dimmers or Fan Speed Control Devices are allowed within the same electric circuit as this appliance. Connect only to a LIVE electrical power supply that is not controlled by any other switching device. Dual blowers are provided as standard equipment with this DXV35 DT3 Fireplace. The dual blowers have an air output rating of 210 CFM (in free air).
TROUBLE SHOOTING MENDOTA GAS DXV FIREPLACE SYMPTOM 1. Thin black coating (soot) forms on viewing glass. PROBABLE CAUSES A. Incorrect gas pressure B. Not enough combustion air CORRECTIVE ACTION Have gas supplier check for correct gas pressure (7" W.C. Nat. Gas; 12" W.C. LP Gas). If sooting continues open air shutter on burner (see "Gas Flame Adjustment" below). If sooting still continues, shut off unit and call Mendota service person.
CUSTOMER INFORMATION AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE SURFACE TEMPERATURE Mendota Fireplaces comply with UL Standards for maximum surface temperatures on exposed combustible surfaces adjacent to the unit. The Maximum allowable surface temperature is 117° F. over ambient (room) temperature. Thus, if a room is 70° – 80° the exposed combustible surfaces immediately surrounding the Fireplace can have a surface temperature as high as 187° F. – 197° F. (Too hot to touch).
MAINTENANCE 1. ANNUAL MAINTENANCE OF MENDOTA UNITS IS REQUIRED. The following procedures must be performed each year by a Mendota approved service person. NOTE: Any adjustments to burner, pilot or logs must be done by a qualified Mendota service person. A. Replace backup batteries at least 2 times annually. Replace them when the Day Light Savings Time changes. B. Clean all lint and dust build-up around the control. Inspect the condition of any wiring under the burner for melting or damage. C.
WIRING SCHEMATICS Note: The DXV35-DT3-LX ignition system utilizes Transformed DC power for normal ignition functions. In the event of a power outage, the Battery Pack power is utilized.
