Venting
THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO A CHIM-
NEY FLUE SERVING A SEPARATE SOLID FUEL BURNING
APPLIANCE.
This appliance is designed to attach to a 4” diameter type B-Vent or listed
gas fuel type vent liner running the full length of the chimney. A minimum
flue height of 12 feet is recommended. B-Vent must be supported by a
vent support - supplied by vent manufacturer. See chart on this page
for minimum distances from roof.
The FPI Insert incorporates its own internal draft hood, so no additional
external draft hood is required.
Periodically check that the vent is unrestricted and an adequate draft
is present when the unit is in operation. (See page 8 for spillage test.)
Before installing vent system ensure that the damper plate is open and
secure to prevent the damper plate from falling down and crushing the liner.
WARNING: Operation of this appliance when not connected
to a properly installed and maintained venting system or
tampering with the blocked vent shutoff system can result
in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
Combustion and Ventilation Air
WARNING: This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation
and must be installed with provisions for adequate combus-
tion and ventilation air available to the room in which it is
to be operating.
Follow CAN/CGA B149 (in Canada) or ANSI Z223.1 (in the USA)
requirements, and any local codes or regulations of the enforcing authority.
Air for combustion is drawn in through the front of the unit, therefore, the
front of the unit must be kept clear of any obstructions.
