Be careful not to damage thermal insula-
tion when sliding on vent connector plate.
This could cause blockage.
VENTING
THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE
CONNECTED TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING A
SEPARATE SOLID FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCE.
This appliance is designed to be attached to
two 3" (76mm) co-linear aluminium fl ex running
the full length of the chimney. The fl ue length
must be a minimum length of 8 ' (2.44m) and
a maximum of 35' (10.7m). See chart below for
minimum distances from roof. Periodically check
that the vent is unrestricted.
GAS PIPE
PRESSURE TESTING
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.45
kPa). Disconnect piping from valve at pressures
over 1/2 psig.
The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator
built into the gas control, and should be checked
at the pressure test point.
Note: To properly check gas pressure, both
inlet and manifold pressures should
be checked using the valve pressure
ports on the valve.
U32E-5 FPI Direct Vent Gas Insert
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 fl at 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 out
with the unit burning and the setting should
be within the limits specifi ed on the safety
label.
6) When fi nished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" fl at
screwdriver. Note: Screw should be snug,
but do not over tighten.
GAS INSERT
AERATION SYSTEM
The air shutter can be adjusted by moving the
adjusting wire up or down. The wire is accessed
through the bottom louver opening. Open the air
shutter for a blue fl ame or close for a yellower
fl ame. The burner aeration is factory set but
may need adjusting due to either the local gas
supply or altitude.
Minimum Air Shutter Opening:
3/16"
Natural Gas
1/4"
Propane
Aeration Adjustment Wire
PULL= Open
PUSH = Close
CAUTION: Carbon will be produced if air shutter
is closed too much.
Note: any damage due to carboning resulting
from improperly setting the aeration controls
is NOT covered under warranty.
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only
be performed by an authorized FPI
Installer at the time of installation or
service.
INSTALLATION
OPTIONAL
BRICK PANEL
1) Unwrap the brick pattern panels from the
protective wrapping.
2) Remove the glass front if it is already
installed, see "Standard Flush Door"
section.
3) Put the rear brick panel fl at against the back
of the unit.
4) Before installing the side brick panels, loosen
the screws for the brick tabs enough so that
you can slide the brick tabs on to the screws
easily but that the tabs are secure. For the
location of the side brick tab screws see
diagram 1.
Diagram 1
5) Remove the brick tabs and slide the side
brick panels into position. See diagram 1.
Install the brick tabs. See diagram 2.
