1) Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing Support, and Top Standoffs before unit is slipped into position. See "Unit Assembly Prior to Installation" section for assembly details.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep
(946mm high x 921mm wide x 441mm deep).
NOTE: See next page for important Barcelona™ Series framing note.

A B C D 36-1/4" 37-1/4" 17-3/8" 46-1/2"* 921mm 946mm 441mm 1181mm* * 'D' is Minimum height to combustible materials
including the Minimum 2-1/2" (64mm) Top clearance to the Horizontal Vent.
3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes. (Do not insulate
the fi replace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.
Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both fl ex termination or Simpson Dura-Vent venting.
Note: The unit does not have to be completely
enclosed in a chase. The clearance on top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so combustible building materials can be laid directly on top of the standoffs. You must maintain clearance from the vent to combustible materials for ex, see Vent Clearances.
5) Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to
combustible material cannot be maintained, e.g. front top header.

PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION
The T op Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position.
Top Standoff Assembly
The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position and must be folded into shape and attached.
1) Remove the standoffs from the fi replace top.
2) Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the screw holes in the standoff and the pre­punched screw holes on the fi replace top line up.
3) Attach the standoff securely to the top with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite corners).
Top Facing Support &
Side Nailing Strips
Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
The Top Facing Support can be mounted in 3 different positions depending on the thickness of the facing material.
Screw
Position A 1/2" / 13mm B 7/8" / 22mm
C* 1-1/4" / 32mm
* For "C" screw position the top facing support is reversed.
1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use hole positions A, B, or C depending on your facing depth.

"C" Screw Position:
For a facing material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm), the top facing support must be reversed.
2) Fold out the two nailing strips on each side.
Regency® P36D-1 Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The P36D-1 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 flue 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.

Horizontal or Vertical Terminations
The minimum components required for a basic horizontal termination are:
1 Horizontal Termination Cap 1 90o Elbow 1 Rigid Pipe Adaptor 1 Wall Thimble 1 Length of pipe to suit wall thickness (see chart)
Wall thickness is measured from the back standoffs to the inside mounting surface of termination cap. For siding other than vinyl furring strips may be used, instead of the vinyl siding standoff, to create a level surface to mount the vent terminal. The Terminal must not be recessed into siding. Measure the wall thickness including furring strips.
If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must be used with vinyl siding), measure to outside surface of wall without siding and add 2 inches.

INSTALLATION
UNIT INSTALLATION WITH
HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
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 an available option that must be used in conjunction with the Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent system.
3) Put a bead of silicone inside the outer section of the adapter and a bead of Mill Pac on the inner collar. Slip the adapter over the existing inner and outer fl ue collar and fasten to the outer collar only with the 3 supplied screws (drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Level the fi replace and fasten it to the framing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
4) Assemble the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the appliance adaptor and twist-lock for a solid connection.
Notes:
a) Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations,
located on the female ends of pipes and ttings, are designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fi ttings, by orienting the four pipe indentations so they match and slide in to the four entry slots on the male ends, Diagram 1. Push the pipe sections completely together, then twist-lock one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn, until the two sections are fully locked. The female locking lugs will not be visible from the outside, on the Black Pipe or fi ttings. They may be located by examining the inside of the female ends.
Diagram 1
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.
b) Horizontal runs of vent must be
supported every three feet. Wall straps are available for this purpose.
5) Mark the wall for a 10" x 10" square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 10 inch square hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of non­combustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7"(178mm) dia. (7-1/2"(191mm) dia. for fl ex) hole is acceptable.
Note: With Dura-Vent, the minimum height is achieved by installing
o
elbow
a 90 directly to the rigid pipe adaptor.
Diagram 2
Notes:
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. For External Vent Terminal Locations, see Exterior Vent Termination Location.
c) Snorkel Terminations: For installations requiring a vertical
rise on the exterior of the building, 14­inch and 36-inch tall Snorkel T erminations are available, as well as the standard Riser Vent. Follow the same instal­lation proce­dures as used for standard Horizon­tal Ter­mination. NEVER install the snorkel upside down.
Diagram 3
Note: Riser Vent is only for use in above grade terminations.
Diagram 3a
*Diagrams 3 & 4: As specifi ed in CGA B149 Installation Code. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Below Grade Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed below grade, i.e. basement application, proper drainage must be provided to prevent water from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer to Diagram 4. Do not attempt to enclose the Snorkel within the wall, or any other type of enclosure.
Diagram 4
NOTE: For Snorkel terminations in ABOVE
grade installations, follow national or local code requirements.
6) The arrow on the vent cap should be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2"
clearances to combustible materials are maintained (Diagram 4). Install the termination cap.

INSTALLATION
Diagram 5
The four wood screws provided should
be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.
7) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent
pipe to the vent termination, slide the Wall Thimble over the vent pipe.
8) 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. Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from the vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws provided to connect the strips to the pipe section. See Diagram 6.
Diagram 6
9) Install wall thimble in the center of the 10" square and attach with wood screws (Diagram 7).
Diagram 7
UNIT INSTALLATION WITH
VERTICAL TERMINATION
1) Maintain the 1-1/4" 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 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 his 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. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system. Y ou may wish to relocate the appliance or to offset, as shown in Diagram 2 to avoid cutting load bearing members.
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.
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the
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 3 and install the restop.
Diagram 3
Diagram 1
Diagram 2
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.
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 4.
Diagram 4: 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 (Diagram 2).
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 Diagram 5 or local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches,
Diagram 5

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.

INSTALLATION
PROCEDURES
Note: To make the installation more aesthetically pleasing, we recommend framing out a square to mount the terminal to.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.
2) Level the replace and fasten it to the framing
using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
3) Assemble the vent assembly by applying Mill Pac to the 4"(100mm) inner collar of the termination and slipping the 4"(100mm) 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 6-7/8"(175mm) fl ex pipe and slip it over the 6-7/8" outer collar of the vent terminal at least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with the 3 screws.
NOTE: Horizontal sections must be
supported at intervals not exceeding 3 feet (0.9 meter). (Flame picture and performance will be affected by sags in the liner).
4) Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble and
securely fasten the one with the tabs to the outside wall making sure that the tabs are on top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble 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. The liners must slip
over the collars a minimum of 1-3/8".
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 way is 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 4"(100mm) liner and outer
6-7/8"(175mm) 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
o
.
90
7) Apply Mill Pac over the fi replace inner collar and slip the 4"(100mm) liner down over it and attach with 3 supplied screws.
8) Do the same with the 6-7/8"(175mm) 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.
1) Locate the unit in the framing, 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. Locate the centerline of the termination and mark wall accordingly. Cut a 10"(254mm) hole in the wall (inside dimension).
Note: A 1-1/2"(38mm) clearance around
the liner must be maintained except that only a 1" (25mm) clearance is needed at the termination end. We recommend framing a 10"(254mm) x 10"(254mm) (inside dimensions) hole to give structural rigidity for mounting the termination.

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 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.
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.
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.

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.
4949
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
COPY OF THE LIGHTING PLATE INSTRUCTIONS
Blower:
FPI gas appliances use high tech blowers to push heated air farther into the room. It is not unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound when ON. This sound will increase or decrease in volume depending on the speed setting of your fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the burner tube(s) and logs 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.
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.
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.
OFF
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.
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the gas valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep the burner and control compartment clean by brushing and vacuuming at least once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.
2) Clean appliance and door with a damp cloth (never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a gas fi replace glass cleaner.
The glass should be cleaned when it starts looking cloudy.
3) The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant paint and should only be refi nished with heat resistant paint. FPI uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper position and condition. Visually check the ame of the burner periodically, making sure the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating.

MAINTENANCE
5) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually, by a qualifi ed fi eld service person, to ensure that the fl ow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed.
Note: Never operate the appliance without
the glass properly secured in place.
6) Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace nay part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
7) Verify operation after servicing.
GENERAL VENT
MAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect as follows:
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in areas that are exposed to the elements. These will appear as rust spots or streaks, and in extreme cases, holes. These components should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a fl ashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive condensation, such as water droplets forming in the inner liner, and subsequently dripping out the joints, Continuous condensation can cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many elbows, and exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs. Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool before opening door and carefully remove the logs. (The pilot light generates enough heat to burn someone.) If for any reason a log should need replacement, you must use the proper replacement log. The position of these logs must be as shown in the diagrams under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will severely alter the unit's performance which is not covered under warranty.
THERMOPILE/
THERMOCOUPLE
1) Open the bottom louvers.
2) Loosen the thermocouple or thermopile with
a 7/16" wrench.
3) Disconnect thermocouple by loosening nut from the valve with a 9mm wrench. Disconnect thermopile by loosening 2 screws marked TP on the valve.
4) Drop the thermocouple or thermopile down from the bracket and pull it out of the unit.
5) Reinstall the new ones in reverse order.
GLASS GASKET
If the glass gasket requires replacement use 5/8" fl at glass gasket for the Bay Front (Part # 936-243) and a tadpole glass gasket for the Flush Front (Part # 936-155).
DOOR GLASS
Your FPI fireplace is supplied with high temperature, 5 mm Neoceram ceramic glass that will withstand the highest heat that your unit will produce. If your glass requires cleaning, we recommend using an approved glass cleaner available at all authorized dealers. Do not use abrasive materials. Do not clean the glass when hot.
In the event that you break your glass by impact, purchase your replacement from an authorized FPI dealer only, and follow our step-by-step instructions for replacement.
WARNING: Do not operate the appliance with the glass panels removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the glass panels should be done by a licensed or
qualifi ed service person.
Caution: Wear gloves when removing damaged or broken glass.
FLUSH GLASS REPLACEMENT
Remove the fl ush door front. Remove the 4 glass clips from each corner. Slide in the new replacement glass. Push the 4 glass clips back onto the frame. The glass must have
gasketing around it.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe
sections or fi ttings have been disturbed, and consequently loosened. Also check mechanical supports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers' tape for rigidity.
