CPI [Continuous Pilot Ignition] / IPI [Intermittent Pilot
Ignition] Jumper Cable Installation
"Why use CPI mode"?
There are several reasons why you may choose to use CPI mode. When
a flue is cold it can be difficult to light the appliance. It can take a bit of
time (particularly on tall vents) to initialize vent action. This can result
in "lifting" or "ghosting" of the flames during the first two to three
minutes of operation. It is also possible to encounter times when the
fireplace fails to light successfully. The fireplace will then attempt to
re-light a second or third time depending on prevailing temperatures
or altitude. When in CPI mode, the pilot also keeps the system warm.
During a "cold" start, condensation will normally form on the inner glass
surface of the door. This condensation will quickly dry, however, the
condensation tends to run down the glass and cause some streaking.
CPI mode helps to resolve this issue. If CPI mode is used during the
winter months, the energy it takes to run the pilot is partially recovered
as heat into the building, so it does not use as much energy as running
a pilot in the off season.
A connector is supplied with this unit that can be plugged into the
wire harness connected to the controller. This jumper cable gives the
Remote Control the ability to operate the CPI / IPI switch and set the
unit to operate in either condition. CPI means "Continuous Pilot Ignition"
or "Standing Pilot" as it is commonly known. IPI means "Intermittent
Pilot Ignition", which only initializes the pilot when you are going to be
using the appliance.
The difference between IPI and CPI:
IPI (Intermittent Pilot Ignition) Mode: is a fuel saving mode in
which the pilot is only used when the main burner is on.
CPI (Continuous Pilot Ignition) Mode: The pilot runs continuously
even when the main burner is off. (Typically only used for winter
months)
