If the flue diameter is larger than the chimney fan inlet, the ti/44 bracket can be installed underneath the base. Note that the bolts must be installed from the � bottom side. \��� Adjust the final position of the brackets ensuring I that there is clearance between the brackets and the flue wall. If the brackets touch the wall, it may j generate some vibration noise. Note: It is not necessary to bolt the fan to the steel chimney adapter when the flanges are used. irl.-11 ------- 24 INSTALLATION GUIDE 2.4.2 Fan Calibration During initial startup of a Acucraft Fireplace with a TPS Controller, the fan(s) speeds will need to be calibrated. This is required to allow for the correct functionality of the fireplace, desired glass temperatures (if applicable), and the ideal flame characteristics. FAN #1 At initial startup have the first fan potentiometer (dial located inside TPS case) set to its lowest setting (counterclockwise). After turning the fireplace on, slowly turn the dial clockwise until the ignitor begins to cycle. This will only occur once the PDS-1 (Proven Draft Switch) has confirmed the flue is functioning correctly. See trouble shooting guide for additional detail regarding fan speed setting. �.•--.=nay f) FAN 2 Some fireplaces will be designed with an additional fan. Sealed Units If the fireplace is a sealed unit, an additional "Intake Pusher Fan" may be included to aide the glass cooling functionality. This could be a result of an extended flue/intake run, or glass temperatures resulting from large viewing area(s) or elevated burner BTU's. In this scenario calibrate Fan #1 (flue fan) first, then increase fan speed for Fan #2 (rotate dial clockwise) as needed to achieve desired glass temperatures. See trouble shooting guide for additional details. Open Units If the fireplace is a open or partially open unit, an additional "Intake Pusher Fan" may be included to aide is flame performance and characteristics. When calibrating this fan, as before start with a fan set to its lowest setting (counterclockwise). And with the fireplace running, slowly increase (clockwise) increase the Fan #2 speed until the ideal flame appearance and fan noise is achieved. See trouble shooting guide for additional details. 25 INSTALLATION GUIDE 2.5 Gas Installation Refer to local requires and codes to your specific area. Components must be within 4 feet of the inlet locations on the fireplace. These components must remain accessible behind an access panel. For purpose in this manual -Water Column will be denoted as W.C.

Turn off switch, wait 10 seconds, and try turning it on again. The system will go into a retry cycle five (5) times. If unit has been sitting idle for an extended period of time, it may take several attempts to ignite the unit. If there is still no ignition, turn off switch and visually inspect wiring harness for loose connections and check to be sure the gas supply is connected and all valves are open. If the appliance still does not ignite, check the spark igniter to be sure it is operating correctly. It should have a visible spark and make a clicking sound as it sparks. If no spark is seen, verify that all connections are tight and secure at the ignition control module. If it still fails to ignite, the PDS may not be activating. Contact a qualified technician to verify that the venting is clear, the exhaust fan is operational, and that the draft proving system is functioning properly. The system will not start the ignition sequence until draft is proven. Spark Igniter is working, It will stop sparking after 11 seconds as a safety, and will then lock out but does not ignite the the gas valve. Turn off the switch and try again. If it is still sparking with flame. no ignition, contact a qualified technician. The appliance ignites, but The flame sensor may not be registering proper flame strength. Turn shuts down shortly after the appliance on and visually inspect the spark ignition sequence. If ignition. the igniter is still sparking after the flame is burning, it may indicate that the flame sensor rod is not making proper contact with the flames. The flame sensor must be located directly in the flame to get the proper signal. A DC current is created by the flame on the rod that must be present to prove there is a flame or the valve will lock out. If the flame is not making direct contact with the flame sensor, contact a qualified technician to make necessary adjustments. If the flame sensor appears to be red hot and within the flames, yet the igniter keeps sparking, the sensor is not sensing the flame properly and the valve will lock out after 11 seconds. Verify that all electrical connections to the ignition module are tight and secure. If it still does not stay lit, contact a qualified technician. The flames appear light Visually compare flame to those shown in the Installing the Media and lazy on the burner. section of this manual. There may be a reduction in gas pressure or a blockage to the venting. Contact a qualified technician to diagnose. 38 OPERATIONS GUIDE 3.3 Maintenance & Care Always use proper precautions and turn off fireplace before performing any maintenance. Do not clean appliance when hot. Clean the tempered glass with a basic household glass cleaner every 3 months to 1 year (depending on frequency of use). NEVER use abrasive cleaners or glass cleaner that contains ammonia, as it may etch the tempered glass. Examination and visual check of the burner & flame should be performed periodically to ensure proper operation. If the flame deviates greatly from the standard or if any portion of the burner has a large gap between flames, the burner orifices may need cleaning. Contact a qualified technician to diagnose, correct, and clean the burner orifices as needed. Replacement of worn, broken, or non-functioning components should be left to a qualified service technician. If glass panels suffer any type of impact, immediately cease use of fireplace until a qualified technician can assess the integrity of the panels and determine if they need replacement before continued use. The area around the appliance must be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Keep combustion and ventilation air flows unobstructed. Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is imperative that control compartments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
