(See Figure 51 for FBK-100, FBK-200 and
Figure 52 for FBK-250 wiring) -
An electrical receptacle is provided for the
installation of the FBK-100, FBK-200 and FBK-
250 forced air blower kits. Electrical power
must be connected to this receptacle in order
to operate these blowers. Install the blower
kits according to the installation instructions
provided with the kits.

Step 6. CONNECTING GAS LINE

Make gas line connections. All codes require a
shut-off valve mounted in the supply line. Figure
53 illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. The flex-line method is acceptable in
the U.S., however, Canadian requirements vary
depending on locality. Installation must be in
compliance with local codes.

These appliances are equipped with a gas flex
line for use (where permitted) in connecting
the unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is
provided to aid in attaching the direct vent
appliance to the gas supply. The gas flex line
can only be used where local codes permit.
See Figure 53 for flex line description. The flex
line is rated for both natural and propane gas.
A manual shut off valve is also provided with

modesty panel, slide the panel forward until it
contacts the cabinet bottom panel, then lift
straight up and tilt forward. Remove the mod-
esty panel carefully, so that none of the wires
become loose or disconnected.
The millivolt control valve has a 3/8"
(10 mm) NPT thread inlet port. The electronic
control valve has a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT thread inlet
port and is fitted with a 1/2" x 3/4" (13 mm x
10 mm) NPT fitting.

Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks,
using a gas leak test solution (also referred to
as bubble leak solution).

Note: Using a soapy water solution (50% dish
soap, 50% water) is an effective leak test
solution but it is not recommended, because
the soap residue that is left on the pipes/
fittings can result in corrosion over time. Never
use an open flame to check for leaks.
A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting
instructions label in the control compartment
or in the Homeowner's Care and Operation
Instructions).
B. Brush all joints and connections with the
gas leak test solution to check for leaks. If
bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected,
turn the gas control knob to the "OFF" posi-
tion. Either tighten or refasten the leaking
connection and retest as described above.
C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
be sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.
D. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
observe the individual tongues of flame on the
burner. Make sure all ports are open and
producing flame evenly across the burner. If
any ports are blocked, or partially blocked,
clean out the ports.
Step 7. INSTALLING CERAMIC EMBER
PANEL, LOGS AND GLOWING EMBERS
The logs are packaged in a carton located
within the firebox. One plastic bag of glow-
ing embers is located in the bottom com-
partment. Refer to the Log Set Placement
Supplement for detailed placement instruc-
tions for the ceramic ember panel, logs and
glowing embers.
Step 8. CHECKING APPLIANCE OPERATION
With gas line installed, run initial system
checkout before closing up the front of the
unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions
provided in the Homeowner's Care and Op-
eration Instructions. For piezo ignitor loca-
tion see Figure 54 (millivolt appliances only).
Note: Lighting instructions may also be found
on the pull out lighting instruction labels at-
tached to the gas control valve. To access the
label, see the procedure on the previous page
described for accessing the gas control valve.
When first lighting the appliance, it will take
a few minutes for the line to purge itself of
air. Once purging is complete, the pilot and
burner will light and operate as indicated in
the instruction manual. Subsequent lightings
of the appliance will not require such purg-
ing. Inspect the pilot flame (remove logs, if
necessary, handling carefully).
Millivolt Appliance Checkout
The top 3/8" (10 mm) at the pilot generator
(thermopile) and the top 1/8" min (tip) of the
quick drop out thermocouple should be en-
gulfed in the pilot flame. The flame should
project 1" (25 mm) beyond the hood at all three
ports (Figure 55 on page 25) .
