VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The B36XT uses the "balanced fl ue" technology Co-Axial system.
The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the
outer liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber
thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion
and losing warm room air up the chimney.
Note: These fl ue pipes must not be connected to any other
appliance.
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the
outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving
a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas
appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent
systems are prohibited.

dimensions (inside measurements) for the

Install the vent system according to the
manufacturer's instructions included with the
components.
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to
determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in
the way when the venting system is attached.
If this is the case, you may want to adjust
the location of the unit. Rough in the gas
preferably on the right side of the unit and
the electrical (junction block is on the left
side) on the left.
2) Direct Vent pipe and fi ttings are designed with
special twist-lock connections to connect the
venting system to the appliance fl ue outlet.
A twist-lock appliance adaptor is required.
3) In conjunction with the Approved Vent
system, install the adaptor after the unit is
set in its desired location. Put a bead of high
temperature silicone inside the outer section
of the adapter and a bead of Mill Pack on the
inner collar. Slip the adapter over the existing
inner and outer fl ue collar. Fasten to the outer
collar only with the 3 supplied screws (drilling
pilot holes will make this easier).
4) Level the fi replace and fasten it to the framing
using nails or screws through the top and
side nailing strips.
Size
5) Assemble the desired combination of pipe
and elbows to the appliance adaptor and
twist-lock for a solid connection.
Note: For best results and optimum
performance with each approved
venting system, it is highly
recommended to apply “Mill-Pac”
sealant (supplied) to every inner pipe
connection. Failure to do so may result
in drafting or performance issues not
covered under warranty. Silicone (red
RTV) is optional.
Horizontal runs of vent must be supported
every 3 feet (0.9meter). Wall straps are
available for this purpose.
6) Mark the wall for a square hole.-see chart to
left for size. The center of the square hole
should line up with the center-line of the
horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the square
hole in the exterior wall where the vent will
be terminated. See diagram 2 for center line
requirements.
If the wall being penetrated is constructed of
non-combustible material, i.e. masonry block
or concrete, an 8" (203mm) diameter hole
is acceptable.
Note:
a) The horizontal run of vent must be level,
or have a 1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot
of run towards the termination. Never
allow the vent to run downward. This
could cause high temperatures and may
present the possibility of a fi re.
b) The location of the horizontal vent
termination on an exterior wall must meet
all local and national building codes, and
must not be blocked or obstructed. See
"Exterior Vent Termination Locations"
section for more details.

7) Ensure that the pipe clearances to

(Diagram 5). Install the termination cap.
Note: If installing termination on a vinyl
siding covered wall, a vinyl siding
standoff or furring strips must be used
to ensure that the termination is not
recessed into the siding.
Diagram 5
The four wood screws provided should be re-
placed with appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
8) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent
pipe to the vent termination, slide the Wall
Thimble over the vent pipe. The wall thimble
is required for all horizontal terminations.
9) Slide the appliance and vent assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the vent
pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is important
that the vent pipe extends into the vent cap
suffi cient distance so as to result in a minimum
pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches (32mm). Secure
the connection between the vent pipe and
the vent cap.
10) Install wall thimble in the center of the framed
hole and attach with wood screws (Diagram
7).

half to the inside wall. The thimble halves
slip inside each other and can be adjusted
for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 walls.
5) Slip the assembled liner and termination
assembly through the thimble making sure
the termination cap faces up (there are
markings on the cap that show which wayis
up). This will position the termination cap
with proper down slope for draining water.
Fasten the cap to the outer wall with the 4
supplied screws.
6) Pull the centre inner and outer fl ex liner out
enough to slip over the fl ue collars of the fi replace. (You may wish to cut the liner
shorter to make it more workable.) Do not
bend liner more than 90
slip over the collars a minimum of 1-3/8".
7) Apply Mill Pac over the fi replace inner fl ue
collar and slip the inner fl ex liner down over
it and attach with 3 supplied screws.

1) Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the
gas (preferably on the right side of the unit).
Locate the centerline of the termination and
mark wall accordingly. Cut an square hole in
the wall - see chart (inside dimension).
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff
or vinyl furring strips must be used
to ensure that the termination is not
recessed into the siding.
2) Level the fi replace and fasten it to the fram-
ing using nails or screws through the nailing
strips.
3) Assemble the vent assembly by applying
Mill Pac to the inner fl ue collar of the termi-
nation and slipping the inner fl ex liner over
it at least 1-3/8" (35mm). Fasten with the
3 screws (drilling pilot holes will make this
easier). Apply Mill Pac or high temperature
silicone to the outer fl ex pipe and slip it over
the outer fl ue collar of the vent terminal at
least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with the 3
screws.
8) Do the same with the outer fl ue collar and
outer fl ex liner.
9) Apply a bead of silicone between the thimble
and termination and around the outer edge
of the terminal at the wall in order to keep
the water out.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate termination
hood where excessive snow or ice
buildup may occur. Be sure to check vent
termination area after snow falls, and clear
to prevent accidental blockage of venting
system. When using snow blowers, make
sure snow is not directed towards vent
termination area.

(Rigid Vent Systems)
(MUST USE REDUCER
#946-606 AND RIGID PIPE ADAPTOR
#770-994)
1) Maintain the 1-1/2" clearances
(air spaces) to combustibles
when passing through ceilings,
walls, roofs, enclosures,
attic rafter, or other nearby
combustible surfaces. Do not
pack air spaces with insulation.
Check "Venting" Sections for
the maximum vertical rise of
the venting system and the
maximum horizontal offset
limitations.
2) Set the gas appliance in
its desired location. Drop
a plumb bob down from
the ceiling to the position
of the appliance fl ue exit, and mark the
location where the vent will penetrate the
ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next,
drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole
previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark
the spot where the vent will penetrate the
roof.
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the
fl oor or ceiling of every level. To install the
Firestop spacer in a fl at ceiling or wall,
cut a 10 inch square hole. Frame the hole
as shown in Diagram 2 and install the
fi restop.
Note: All vertical terminations are
vented using 4" x 6-5/8" venting and
reducer #946-606 and rigid pipe
adaptor #770-994.
Diagram 2
Diagram 1
4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and
elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist-locked position
and sealed.
NOTE: For best results and optimum performance with each approved venting system, it
is highly recommended to apply “Mill-Pac”
sealant (supplied) to every inner pipe connection. Failure to do so may result in drafting
or performance issues not covered under
warranty. Silicone (red RTV) is optional.
5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small
drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The
hole should be of suffi cient size to meet
the minimum requirements for clearance
to combustibles of 1-1/2". Slip the fl ashing
under the shingles (shingles should overlap
half the fl ashing) as per Diagram 3.
Diagram 3: The upper half of the fl ashing is
installed under the roofi ng material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed. This
allows for small adjustments.
6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic to
avoid obstructions, it is important to
support the vent pipe every 3 feet, to
avoid excessive stress on the elbows,
and possible separation. Wall straps
are available for this purpose.
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofl ine
due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue
to add pipe sections through the fl ashing until
the height of the vent cap meets the minimum
height requirements specifi ed in Dia. 4 or local
codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the
vertical height must be increased. A poor
draft, or down drafting can result from high
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining
roof lines, in these cases, increasing the
vent height may solve the problem.

7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base
of the fl ashing to the roof with roofi ng rails,
slide storm collar over the pipe section and
seal with a mastic.
8) Install the vertical termination cap by twistlocking it.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces, which
the vent passes through must be
enclosed.
GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
The gas line is brought through the right side of
the appliance. The gas valve is situated on the
right hand side of the unit and the gas inlet is
on the right hand side of the valve.
The gas line connection may be made of rigid
pipe, copper pipe or an approved fl ex connector .
(If you are using rigid pipe, ensure that the valve
can be removed for servicing.) Since some
municipalities have additional local codes it is
always best to consult with your local authorities
and the CAN/CGA B149 installation code.
For USA installations follow local codes and/
or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or fl ex connectors use only
approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so
that gas lines can be easily disconnected for
servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and fl ex
connectors are usually considered to meet this
requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a
soap and water solution or gas leak detector.
Do not use open fl ame for leak testing.

PILOT ADJUSTMENT
Periodically check the pilot fl ames. Correct fl ame pattern has three strong blue fl ames:
1 fl owing around the thermopile, 1 around
the thermocouple and 1 fl owing across the
burner (it does not have to be touching the
burner).
Note: If you have an incorrect fl ame
pattern, contact your FPI dealer for further
instructions.
Incorrect fl ame pattern will have small,
probably yellow fl ames, not coming into
proper contact with the rear burner or
thermopile or thermocouple.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct and
enclosed to prevent possible shock.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4) Make sure the glass in the glass door frame
is properly positioned. Never operate the
appliance with the glass removed.
5) Verify that the venting and cap are
unobstructed.
6) The unit should never be turned off, and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second
wait.
FIRST FIRE
The FIRST FIRE in your heater is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure the paint is properly
cured, it is recommended you burn your fi replace
for at least four (4) hours the fi rst time.
When fi rst operated, the unit will release an
odour caused by the curing of the paint and the
burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Smoke detectors in the house may go off
at this time. Open a few windows to ventilate
the room for a couple of hours. The glass may
require cleaning.
NOTE: When the glass is cold and the appliance
is lit, it may cause condensation and fog
the glass. This condensation is normal
and will disappear in a few minutes as
the glass heats up.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS STILL HOT!
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, you
must fi rst remove the glass door.
NOTE: The Gas ON/OFF knob cannot be
turned from "ON", "PILOT" or "OFF" unless
it is partially depressed.
1) Ensure the wall mounted switch or remote
is in the "OFF" position.
2) Turn the gas control knob so the indicator
points to the "OFF" position and wait 5 minutes for any gas in the combustion chamber
to escape.
3) Turn the gas control knob counterclockwise
so the indicator points to the "PILOT" position.
Depress the gas control knob fully until the
pilot lights. After approximately one minute,
release the gas control knob. The pilot fl ame
should continue to burn.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the gas control knob, re-install
the glass door to the unit. The unit must not
be operated without the glass door in place.
If the pilot does not remain lit, repeat opera-
tion allowing a longer period before releasing
gas control knob.
4) When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas control
knob to the "ON" position.
5) Use the wall switch or remote control to turn
the unit ON.
NOTE: When using the remote control refer to
the remote manual.
NOTE: If there is no spark present at the pilot
when depressed, the AA battery may
be weak. Refer to "DC Spark Battery
Replacement" section.
NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds from
your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to
the fact that there are various gauges and types
of steel used within your appliance. Listed below
are some examples. All are normal operating sounds and should not be considered as defects
in your appliance.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner and is made of a different gauge material
from the rest of the fi rebox and body. Therefore,
the varying thicknesses of steel will expand and
contract at slightly different rates which can cause
"ticking" and "cracking" sounds. Y ou should also
be aware that as there are temperature changes
within the unit these sounds will likely re-occur.
Again, this is normal for steel fi reboxes.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot fl ame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.
Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the
switch contacts closing and is normal.
DO NOT BURN THE UNIT WITHOUT THE
GLASS DOOR IN PLACE.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm
may develop on the glass front as part of
the curing process. The glass should be
cleaned after the unit has cooled down
or the fi lm will bake on and become very
diffi cult to remove. Use a non-abrasive
cleaner and DO NOT A TTEMPT TO CLEAN
THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Regency Bellavista™ B36XT Gas Fireplace
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1) Turn the wall mounted switch or remote to
the "OFF" position.
2) Press "OFF" on the remote control.
3) Turn the gas control knob to the "OFF" posi-
tion to turn off the pilot.
