Need help?
Do you have a question about the U31-NG2 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
My chimney does not turn on, and the pilot is one and there is electricity in the outlet
The FPI U31-NG2 may not be turning on despite the pilot being lit and electricity being present due to several possible reasons:
1. Gas Control Knob Position – Ensure the gas control knob is turned to the correct position for operation and not left in the "PILOT" position.
2. Thermocouple or Thermopile Issue – If the pilot is lit but the main burner does not ignite, the thermocouple or thermopile may not be generating enough voltage to open the gas valve.
3. Wiring Issues – Check that all wiring is correctly connected and enclosed to prevent electrical issues.
4. Remote Control or Wall Switch – If using an optional remote control, verify that it is functioning correctly and set to the proper mode.
5. Gas Supply – Ensure that the main gas supply is turned on and there are no blockages in the gas line.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, further troubleshooting or professional inspection may be required.
