Frequently Asked Questions - GI 550 DV JOTUL

How do I light the pilot?

Access the valve controls in the left compartment. Turn the burner switch to 'OFF'. Push in the gas control knob and turn to 'PILOT'. Push and hold the knob while pressing the red piezo ignitor button repeatedly until the pilot lights. Continue holding for about one minute, then release. If it doesn't stay lit, repeat steps or call a technician.

Can this insert be converted from natural gas to propane?

Yes, a conversion kit is included. It must be installed by a qualified technician following the instructions in the manual. The kit includes a new regulator tower, burner orifice, pilot orifice, and labels.

What are the minimum clearances to combustibles?

Hearth protection must extend at least 16" forward (18" for cast iron without plinth) and 18" wide from center. Side trim clearance varies by surround; typically 1" from cast iron surround, 0" from steel. Mantel and wall clearances depend on surround type and height; refer to the manual's tables.

How do I clean the glass?

Use a soft cloth dampened with water, then dry with a soft towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Clean only when the glass is cool.

What type of venting is required?

The insert requires a co-linear vent system using two 3" flexible gas liners (one for exhaust, one for combustion air). Maximum vent height is 35 feet, minimum 10 feet. Horizontal runs are not permitted. Only use approved vent manufacturers listed in the manual.

Why does the blower not turn on immediately?

The blower is controlled by a heat-activated switch (snapstat). In 'Auto' mode, it will start when the sensor reaches 120°F (about 10 minutes) and will continue until it cools to 110°F after the burner is off.

What should I do if I smell gas?

Do not light any appliance, touch electrical switches, or use phones. Leave the building immediately and call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. If you cannot reach them, call the fire department.

How often should the vent system be inspected?

The entire vent system should be inspected and cleaned at least annually by a qualified service technician.

Clearance to Combustible Materials

A combustible material is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet rock, wallpaper, wood, fabrics etc.). These surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also include materials that may be behind non-combust bles.

If you are unsure of the combustible nature of a material, consult your local fire officials. "Fire Resis Lant" materials are considered combustible: they are difficult to ignite, but will burn. "Fire-rated" sheet rock is also considered combustible.

The following clearances and hoarts specifications are the minimum requirements for installation into a masonry or factory built fireplace. Mantel and wall clearances will vary, depending upon the fireplace facing and riser height, if needed. Use the tables and illustrations in figs. 4 and 5 to determine the minimum clearances for your installation.

Hearth Requirements

Hearth protection in front of the GI 550 DV must be composed of any noncombustible material extending a minimum 36" wide. Hearth protection must extend at least 16" forward of the firebox glass panel with the following exception:

Masonry Fireplaces

A solid-fuel fireplace chimney must be clean and in good working order. It must be constructed of no-combustible materials. Chimney clean-outs must fit properly.

When installing the Universal GI 550 DV gas insert into a masonry fireplace, the insert will be vented through dual 3" flexible gas aluminum liners.

This co-linear installation includes a pair of 3" flex ducts that run from the insert completely through the existing chimney to the termination cap.

One liner is attached to the Exhaust Outlet on the back of the unit and will carry the exhaust gases to the outside of the house. This exhaust liner must be directly connected to the unit and run the full length of the chimney. See fig. 6.

The other 3" liner will be attached to the Air Intake Collar on the back of the unit to provide fresh air for combustion. The Intake Collar is labeled for easy identification. The liner must extend a minimum of 6' off the back of the unit and extend through the camper area of the fireplace into the tile liner of the chimney. This liner can also extend the full length of the chimney and connect to the termination cap.

IMPORTANT

If the intake flex does not extend the full length of the chimney, forming a direct connection between the unit and the termination cap. A METAL BLOCK OFF PLATE MUST BE INSTALLED to seal the air intake from room air. Normally this sealing plate will be installed within the existing fireplace damper area. See fig. 6. The sealing plate is not necessary if a direct connection is made between the cap and the fireplace. WARNING! Avoid cross venting the insert. Before installation, label both ends of the exhaust flex pipe to ensure connection to the appropriate collars on the fireplace unit and vent termination cap.

Cutting of any sheet metal parts on a solid-fuel f replace is prohibited.

Smoke selves, shields, and baffles may be removed if attached with mechanical fasteners.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

THE USE OF AN EXISTING CHIMNEY AS AN AIR INTAKE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE ANSI Z21.88-1999-CSA 2.33-M99 TEST METHODS AND RESULTING ITS/WHI PRODUCT CERTIFICATION. THE CODE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION MUST BE CONSULTED PRIOR TO PROCEEDING WITH THIS INSTALLATION METHOD.

Masonry Fireplace Vent Installation

1. Measure height of the chimney to fireplace operating. Determine if both the intake and exhaust will be extended to the top of the chimney.
2. Use tin ships to cut the appropriate lengths of flex for both the intake and exhaust.
3. Attach the appropriate ends of the flex to the chimney termination kit.
4. Drop the liners down the chimney from the top and rest the termination kit atop the chimney.
5. Seal the chimney termination kit to the top of the chimney flue with high temperature sealant.
6. Secure the appropriate DIRECT VENT CAP to the termination k't
7. Inside the fireplace, fully extend the flex liner pipe and cut off the excess so that the liners hang approximately 15" from the floor of the fireplace.
8. If the Air Intake pipe will not be attached to the chimney termination kit: (See IMPORTANT NOTICE on this below.)
   a. It will be necessary to install: a minimum length of 6 fl. flex pipe up into the flue.
   b. A metal damper block off plate must be constructed and installed in the fire place damper area to completely seal off the flue from the room. Cut holes in the plate for both the intake and exhaust flex pipes.
   c. A direct vent cap is required to bring fresh air into the chimney flue and Air Intake flex pipe.
   a. Attach the Fireplace Conversion Notice to the back of the fireplace if appropriate.

CANADA REQUIREMENT: Both the intake and the Exhaust liners must extend the full length of the chimney and be securely connected to both the unit and the termination kit.

If the fireplace has been modified to accommodate it stallation, use anchors or masonry nails to attach the metal Fireplace Conversion Notice Plate supplied with this unit to the back wall of the masonry fireplace firebox where it will be readily seen should the insert be removed.

WARNING:

FAILURE TO POSITION THE PARTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS DIAGRAM OR FAILURE TO USE ONLY PARTS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED WITH THIS APPLIANCE MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.

Prefabricated Fireplaces

A prefabricated fireplace chimney must be clean and in good working order. It must be constructed of noncombustible materials. Chimney clean-outs must fit properly.

A factory-built prefabricated fireplace will require a few modifications before installation of the fireplace insert.

Modification Steps:

1. Remove any fuel grate or other components attached to the firebox. On most models the fire grate is attached to the unit with brackets which should be cut or pried off.
2. Remove the damper assembly. This includes the damper blade, handle and any linkage. Two 3" liners must be able to pass through the damper area.
3. Remove any fire screen or door assembly. This is usually done by removing a support rod on the inside of the fireplace frame. Smoke shelves, shields, and baffles can be removed if attached with mechanical fasteners.
4. If there is a metal ash lip, it too should be removed to allow the unit to sit flat in the fireplace. Be sure to reinstall any screws removed.

IMPORTANT:

BEFORE STARTING THIS INSTALLATION, MAKE SURE THAT A GAS LINE CAN BE INSTALLED OR IS INSTALLED TO THE FIREBOX. THIS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED OR LICENSED PLUMBER OR GAS FITTER.

The GI 550 DV gas insert is specifically designed to be vented using a co-linear system.

Installation includes a pair of 3" flex ducts that run from the insert completely through the existing chimney to the termination cap. See Figure 7, page 12.

One liner is attached to the exhaust port on the back of the unit and will carry the exhaust gases to the outside of the house. This exhaust liner must be directly connected to the unit and run the full length of the ch mney.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

THE USE OF AN EXISTING CHIMNEY AS AN AIR INTAKE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE ANSI Z21.88-1999-CSA 2.33-Mgg TEST METHODS AND RESULTING ITS/WHI PRODUCT CERTIFICATION. THE CODE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION MUST BE CONSULTED PRIOR TO PROCEEDING WITH THIS INSTALLATION METHOD.

The other 3" liner will be attached to the intake port on the back of the unit and will provide fresh air for combustion to the unit. This liner must extend a minimum of 6 ft. off the back of the unit and extend through the damper area of the fireplace and into the first section of pipe. This liner can also extend the full length of the chimney and connect to the termination cap. See figure 7.

IMPORTANT:

If the intake flex does not extend the full length of the chimney and connect to the unit and the termination cap - THEN A METAL BLOCK OFF PLATE MUST BE CONSTRUCTED AND INSTALLED ABOVE THE UNIT PRIOR TO THE END OF THE INTAKE FLEX (normally at the damper area).

Cutting of any sheet metal parts on a solid-fuel fireplace is prohibited.

If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole 1.5" diameter or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in a proper workmanship-like manner. This access hole must be plugged with noncombustible insulation after the gas supply line has been installed.

CANADA REQUIREMENT: Both the Intake and the Exhaust liners must extend the full length of the chimney and be securely connected to both the unit and the termination kit.

If the fireplace has been modified to accommodate installation, use anchors or masonry nails to attach the metal Fireplace Conversion Notice Plate supplied with this unit to the back wall of the masonry fireplace firebox where it will be readily seen should the insert be removed.

The minimum vent height above the roof or adjacent walls is specified by major building codes. A general guide to follow is the Gas Vent Rule below.

GAS VENT RULE

ROOT SLOPE Flat to 6/12	Minimum Height From Roof
	10"	0.3M
Over 7/12 to 9/12	2'0"	0.6M
Over 10/12 to 12/12	4'0"	5.2M
Over 12/12 to 16/12	6'0"	1.8M
Over 7/12 to 21/12	8'0"	2.4M

Figure 7. Factory-built fireplace vent configuration with direct connection to chimney termination cap as required in Canada.

Prefabricated Fireplace Vent Installation

1. Measure height of the chimney to fireplace opening. Determine if both the intake and exhaust will be extended to the top of the chimney
2. Cut the appropriate lengths of flex for both the intake and exhaust.
3. If the Intake flex will be attached to the chimney lernination kit: Attach the appropriate ends of the flex to the chimney lernination kit, Label the end of the exhaust pipe
4. Drop the liners down the chimney from the top and rest the termination kit atop the chimney.
5. Seal the chimney termination kit to the top of the chimney pipe with high temperature sealant.
6. Secure the appropriate DIRECT VENT CAP to the termination kit.
7. Inside the fireplace, fully extend the flex and cut off the excess flex so that the liners hang approximately 15" from the floor of the fireplace.
8. If the intake flex is NOT attached to the chimney termination kit: See NOTICE on page 12.

A. It is necessary to install a minimum 6 foot length of flex pipe into the flue for the intake air.

B. A METAL damper block off plate must be constructed and installed in the damper area to completely seal off the flue from the room. Cut holes for both the intake and exhaust liners in the block off plate.

C. A direct vent cap is still required to allow fresh air into the chimney flue and ultimately into the intake flex and insert.

D. Attach the Fireplace Conversion Notice to the back of the fireplace if appropriate.

1. Surround panels must not block or seal any ventilation openings on the prefabricated fireplace.

Figure 8. Remove the Flue Collar tool. Also, remove the Upper Deflector if a Cost Iron surround is to be installed.

Vent Connection

The Vent Collar Plate, located on top of the cabinet, is removable to ease connection of the vent liners in those cases where access within, the fireplace is restricted. Whether you are venting through a Maschay chimney or a prefabricated chimney, the flex liner is connected to the insert in the same way. Use the following procedure.

Wear Safety Gloves!

1. Disengage the Vent Collar tool from the top of the fireplace cained by loosening the two retainer screws, then sliding the tool over and up as in fig. 8.
2. Remove the retainer screw that attaches the Collar Plate to the cabinet top and slide the plate back off of the cabinet. Secure the flex lines to the appropriate collars on the Vent Collar Plate using sheet metal screws or hose clamps, as shown in fig. 9. Confirm that the liners are not cross-vented.
3. Position the insert, without surround panels, halfway inside the fireplace and engage the Vent Collar Plate within the rails on the cabinet top enough to get it started. Engage one end of the tool over the tabs on the blue collar plate as in fig. 9. Use a striking motion to hammer the collar plate fully forward and secure it to the cabinet flange using the sheet metal screw previously removed.
4. Store the Vent Adaptor tool beside the insert cabinet inside the fireplace for future use when servicing the unit.

Figure 9. Use the tool to pull the collar plate into place.

Final Positioning

1. Blower Power Cord:

Extend the blower power cord out forward of the fireplace, routing it to the nearest power source.

2. Level and Plumb the Cabinet:

With the fireplace cabinet in its final position, confirm that it is level and plumb.

Adjust the leg levelers at each corner as appropriate to fine-tune the level up to 2/2". If a greater height increase is required, the brackets can be lowered in 1/2" increments to raise the cabinet up to a maximum 21/2".

3. Insert Height Adjustment

- Plinth: If a Cast Iron or Wide Surround is being installed with the a plinth option, adjust the leg leveler brackets to raise the unit 2". - Scan 70i Fronts: Adjust the leg brackets 1" or 2", depending upon which size riser trim is being used.

NOTE: THE APPROPRIATE MANTEL CLEARANCES MUST BE MAINTAINED AS SPECIFIED ON PAGE 9. IF RAISING THE INSERT MORE THAN 1/2", INSTALL NONCOMBUSTIBLE SUPPORT MATERIALS, SUCH AS TILE OR PAVERS, UNDER THE CENTER OF THE CABINET.

4. Extend the Surround Bracket Tabs:

Use pliers to bend back the Surround Bracket Tabs, located on the forward edge of each cabinet side, as shown in fig. 10.

- Tabs 1 and 2 bend inboard - for use with all cast iron surrounds, steel door facings, and the Scan 701 facing. - Tabs 3 and 4 bend outboard - for use with optional Wide 50-round Panels only.

Figure 10. Surround bracket tab orientation.

Connecting the Gas Supply

Gas Supply Requirements

ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL CODE OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUST COMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR CAN-B149.

THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A LICENSED MASTER OR JOURNEYMAN PLUMBER OR GAS-FITTER WHEN INSTALLED IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS.

Shut-off Valve

All codes require a gas Shut-off valve (gas cock) and union to be installed in the supply line and in the same room as the appliance. This allows for the disconnection of the fireplace for servicing and maintenance. See Fig. 11.

A T-HANDLE GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE IS REQUIRED IN MASSACHUSETTS IN COMPLIANCE WITH CODE 248CMR.

The fireplace and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures lowe. than 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply by closing the manual shut-off valve.

Control Valve Connection

As mounted, the gas supply line connection is made to the upper end of the valve. The gas supply line should be a minimum 3/8" diameter, or the appropriate size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve regardless of the input setting.

The use of flexible gas appliance connectors is acceptable in many areas in the U.S. In Canada, methods vary depending on local code. If local codes permit, use flexible gas line for ease of installation and service. For those locales where flexible gas lines are not permitted, use the 3/8" Iron fitting to make the connection at the top side of the Control Valve. See fig. 11.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds (for propane units, be sure to use compounds that are propane resistant). Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a 50/50 soapy water solution or a gas detector. Never use an open flame to check for leaks.

Soap Solution Leak Test

• Mix a 50-50 solution of water and dish soap.
- Light appliance- see lighting instructions on page 23 of this manual or on the fireplace's rating plate.
- Brush or spray all joints and connections with the soapy water solution.
- If bubbles appear at any connection or seam or a gas odor is detected, immediately turn gas control knob to the OFF position.

Tighten or 'econnect the leaking joint and retest for any gas leaks.

Figure n. Gas supply line fittings.

Gas Pressure

Proper gas pressure provides a consistent flow of gas to the appliance and is instrumental in checking for gas leaks. The gas control valve on the fireplace is equipped with pressure test points for gauge connections. The gauge connections are located on the front of the valve next to the On/Off/Pilot knob. Gauge connections are identified by:

E

A

• IN / E for inlet or supply pressure (the amount of gas coming to the valve.)

- OUT / A for manifold pressure (the amount of gas that is coming out of the valve to the burer.)

Figure 12. Pressure test points located on the front of the valve.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply line by closing its individual manual gas shut-off valve (gas cock) during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system that is equal to or exceeds pressures of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

ALWAYS TEST PRESSURE WITH VALVE CONTROL KNOB SET ON HIGH. Symptoms of incorrect gas pressure include:

Insufficient gas pressure:

• Small pilot flame which can result in insufficient millivolts.
• Little variation in flame picture between Hi and 10 settings.
• Insufficient gas to support more than one appliance causing nuisance outages or gas surges.

Excessive gas pressure:

- Permanent damage to valve causing complete appliance shut down.

- Too large a pilot flame resulting in overheating of the power generator and consequent snut down.

- Sooting due to impingement and/or incorrect fuel to air mix.

High Altitude Adjustment

Installations located at altitudes from 2000 - 4250 ft. (610 M - 1370 M) require adjustment for differences in pressure. Use letul High Altitude Adjustment Kit 156453 for propane or 156452 for natural gas adjustment.

Fuel Conversion

The Jotul Ct 550 Fireplace is designed to for use with either Natural gas or Propane. It is shipped from the factory configured to use Natural gas. A conversion kit is included for conversion to Propane use if desired. Check the identification label on the Control Valve to confirm that the correct fuel is used.

WARNING:

THE CONVERSION KIT IS TO BE INSTALLED BY AN AUTHORIZED J∅TUL SERVICE TECHNICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTION AND ALL CODES AND REQUIREMENTS OF THE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. THE QUALIFIED AGENCY PERFORMING THIS WORK ASSUMES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS CONVERSION.

Fuel Conversion Procedure

1. Remove the Burner assembly:
2. If you have not already done so, remove the fettle and log set from the firebox. CAUTION: THE LOGS ARE FRAGILE. Handle them with care and set aside out of the way. See fig. 13.
3. Remove the Burner Skirt attached to the rear of the firebox by two sheet metal screws.

4. Loosen the wingnut on the Air Shutter Stem, located under the center of the firebox floor, and push the stem as far as it will go toward the back of the insert. Disengage the burner assembly from the Air Shutter by lifting it up and back, out of the firebox. Swing the Air Shutter out of the way to access the burner orifice. Fig. 14.

5. Change the Burner Orifice:

- Using a 13 mm deep well socket, remove the burner orifice and replace with the appropriate orifice, supplied in the kit. Tighten securely.

1. Change the Air Shutter position: Lift the Air Shutter tube up in its slots to turn the tube over, so that the appropriate fuel type indicator (LP or NG) is oriented facing you. See fig.15.

2. Change the Pilot Orifice:

- Disengage the Pilot Hood by releasing the retainer clip as shown in Fig. 16. Using a 4 mm hex key, unscrew the pilot orifice (counterclockwise). Replace with the orifice from the kit. Tighten new orifice securely into the base of the pilot assembly.

- Replace Pilot Hood by pushing it into the base.

1. Replace the Burner Assembly: Slide the venturi tube into the Air Shutter and engage the tube fully over the orifice. The burner should engage with the support brackets on the floor of the firebox. Properly located, the burner will be level and locked into correct alignment with the pilot assembly as in fig. 13.

2. Adjust the Air Shutter:

- Slide the shutter forward (toward yourself) to open the inlet. Slide it back to live rear to close. The shutter is set at the half way position at the factory. This is an optimum setting for most installations using natural gas. Propane use, however, may require a different setting.. See the section, Flame Appearance / Air Shutter Adjustment on page 22 for further details.

1. Change the Regulator: See Fig. 7

- Using a Torx T-20 screwdriver or small spade screwdriver, remove the three specialty screws from the front of the valve regulator.

- Remove the regulator tower and gasket. BE SURE TO REMOVE THE BLACK RUBBER GASKET FROM THE VALVE.

• Install the new variable regulator lower with the new rubber gasket. I thoroughly tighten new regulator to valve body.

1. Apply the Conversion Labels:

- Apply LABE: A to the cabinet floor so that it may be seen by anyone servicing the fireplace. - Apply LABE: 3 to the Rating Plate in the space provided.

1. Reassemble the fireplace, apply gas to the system and check for gas leaks 'including all gas lines before and after the valve, NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Use an electronic gas detector or 50/50 soapy water solution to check for leaks at all connection joints. The soap solution will actively bubble if a leak is present. Tighten connections until no leaks are detected.

IMPORTANT: Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe operation. It is important that the correct gas pressure be established at the time of the installation. For more details, see the Gas Pressure section of this manual on page 15 and the Rating Plate.

Log Set Assembly

Much time and effort has been devoted to attaining a lively, realistic flame picture while simultaneously achieving efficient fuel combustion and effective heat output under a variety of installation conditions. The flame picture you experience, however, will be affected by a number of variables peculiar to your installation such as venting configuration, environmental and weather conditions, and fuel type. Log placement is critical to the final flame picture. Pay particular attention to placing the log pieces as illustrated here. Carefully unpack and arrange the logs as outlined below. CAUTION: The logs are fragile. Please handle each piece with care.

Use safety gloves to handle the log parts as the ceramic fibers can initiate skin.

1. Place the Rear Log on the burner skirt against the back of the firebox as shown in fig. 24.
2. Set the Lower Left and Right logs in place on the burner plate pegs as shown in fig. 25.
3. Set the three upper logs on the appropriate pegs as shown in fig. 26.
4. Lightly scatter the Ember Stones, included in the Log Set package, over the burner plate. Place them directly on top of the burner base and around the log parts. DO NOT ALLOW EMBER STONES TO BLOCK THE PILOT ASSEMBLY AREA. The burner ports directly in front of the pilot must remain clear for proper burner ignition.
5. Rep ace the Glass Panel Frame using the Latch Release tool to engage the latches with the frame. See fig. 1, page 3.

System Check

1. PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting the appliance for the first time it will take a few moments to clear the gas line of air. Once this purge is complete, the appliance will operate as described in the lighting instructions located on the fireplace's rating plate and back cover of this manual.

2. PILOT FLAME: The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or floating. The flame should be blue in color around the pilot hood, with traces of yellow toward the outer edges. It is imperative that the pilot flame engulf the top 3/8" of the thermopile (power generator) and the top 1/8" of the quick drop-out thermocouple. The pilot flame should project out of the pilot hood 1" at all three ports, extending to reach the burner plate ports. See fig. 28.

Pilot Shutter Adjustment

The Pilot Stutter, located directly behind the pilot assembly, is set fully-open at the factory. Those installations which include a long, external vent run may be susceptible to draft conditions that can affect pilot stability and cause the valve to shut off automatically. In such cases, adjusting the shutter to a closed, or partially-closed position, will help improve pilot stability.

1. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: Your gas fireplace is equipped with a variable gas control valve. This valve provides easy adjustment of the flame height appearance and heat output. To adjust the flame between the HI and LO setting, rotate the HI/LO knob, located in the center of the valve face. Flame height will adjust approximately 50% between the HI and LO settings

NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS APPAR-ENT. IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.

CAUTION:

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME APPEARANCE BY PLACING THE GAS CONTROL IN ANY POSITION OTHER THAN THE FULL "ON" POSITION.

Flame Appearance / Air Shutter Adjustment

THIS FIREPLACE IS SHIPPED FROM THE FACTORY EQUIPPED TO USE NATURAL GAS. IF THE BURNER HAS BEEN CONVERTED FOR USE WITH PROPANE, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO ADJUST THE AIR SHUTTER TO ACHIEVE AN IDEAL AIR-TO-GAS RATIO. See page 22.

WARNING:

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PER- FORMED BY A QUALIFIED, PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.

The air shutter adjustment can also help achieve the desired flame appearance. Generally, flame appearance is a matter of indiv dua: preference, however a warm yellowish flame is most common.

Closing the air shutter - in extreme cases may generate very long yellow flames resulting in soot. Sooting produces black deposits on the logs, on the inside walls of the appliance, and potentially on the exterior termination cap. Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter opening.

Opening the air shutter - will generate a flame that is blue and transparent, or "anemic". This flame is generally more efficient, but not as attractive.

Figure 28. Correct Pilot flame pattern and Pilot Shutter location.

Figure 29. Correct flame pattern at maximum output. Adjust the air shutter if necessary to achieve desired flame pattern.

Air Shutter Adjustment

The Air Shutter is set half-open at the factory. This setting provides good combustion characteristics with either natural gas or propane in a variety of operating conditions. You may find, however, that your particular installation requires adjustment to allow for a greater or reduced air/fuel ratio. Follow this procedure to adjust the air shutter setting.

1. Locate the Air Shutter adjustment stem extending down from the center of the firebox floor. You will not be able to see it, however, you will be able to feel it about 3 inches from the front of the glass frame. See fig. 29.
2. Loosen the wing nut and pull the stem forward to open the air inlet to allow more air into the burner. Push it to the rear to reduce the air. Make adjustments in 1/8" (3 mm) increments.

Between adjustments, allow the fire to burn 15-20 minutes on the HIGH selling, observing the flame continuously.

1. If the flames are azy, or sooty, move the shutter forward to increase oxygen. If the flame appears weak, jet-like, or blue, move the shutter back to decrease air. Repeat the process until the flame is as desired. Retighten the wing nut.

Surround Assembly

Each of the surround assemblies and front facings is completely assembled at the factory. No further assembly is required. All assemblies utilize hooved brackets (fig. 30) that simply hang onto the inboard tabs on the fireplace cabinet as shown in fig. 70 on page 14.

• Be certain the blower power cord is routed to the front of the insert.
• Hang the Wide Surround first, if appropriate, on the outboard tabs on the firebox assembly.
• Cast Iron Surround: Remove the upper deflector. See fig. 8, page 13. Lift the surround assembly by the upper panel to engage the hooks with: The Inboard fanger tabs on the firebox assembly.
• Steel Facings: Open the doors and lift the assembly by the upper panel to engage the hanger bracket hooks with the inboard hanger tabs.

Plinth

A plinth panel is incorporated into the Cast Iron Sur- rounds. If you choose not to use it, the panel can be removed simply by bending the panel back and forth to snap it off of the surround backing plate.

Rating Plate Location

The Lighting Instructions / Rating Plate is tethered to the Valve & Burner controls compartment on the left side of the fireplace insert. Simply pull it out to reference when operating the fireplace.

Cast Iron Surround Only: If you are installing a cast iron surround, relocate the rating plate underneath the firebox floor where it will be readily accessible after the surround is hung in place.

Figure 3c. All surround panels incorporate hanger brackets that engage with the hanger tabs on the firebox.

Operation

1. Your fireplace can be operated manually using the On/Off/T-stal rocker switch or it can be automatically controlled using an optional wall-mounted thermostat or remote control device. A separate switch is provided for the built-in forced air blower. Familiarize yourself with the location and function of the controls. Gas Valve and Burner controls are located in the left compartment. Blower controls are in the right hand compartment. See figs. 31 - 34. Piezo Ignitor - Push button pilot light ignition.

Gas Control - Used to control the pilot light and gas flow from the supply line.

Regulator - Allows you to adjust heat output and flame intensity from maximum down to 50%.

ON/OFF/T'STAT Switch - Allows for manual or thermostatic control of the barrier.

Always follow the Lighting Instructions located on the inside Back Cover of this manual and also on the Rating Plate, located in the burner controls compartment.

1. For the first several hours of operation, it is common to detect some odor as the metal and manufacturing materials cure under heat. This condition is temporary and can be alleviated by allowing plenty of fresh air to circulate through the area.

2. Condensation may develop on the glass upon each lighting of the appliance. This "fog" will disappear as the glass heats.

3. Keep the controls and the area under the appliance free of debris; vacuum L this area frequently, especially if you have pets. Always keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.

When a vacuum is used on any service for the fireplace. ALWAYS be sure the fireplace is completely cold.

1. This fireplace utilizes a continuously burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using household products containing combustible vapors.

2. CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE CLASS REMOVED, CRACKED OR BROKEN. REPLACEMENT OF THE CLASS SHOULD BE DONE BY A LICENSED OR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON. USE ONLY REPLACEMENT GLASS PROVIDED BY YOUR AUTHORIZED J∅TUL DEALER. NEVER USE ANY SUBSTITUTIVE MATERIALS.

Blower Function

The blower's controlled by a heat-activated switch (snapstat) that will only function if the blower control switch is in either Live Manual or Automatic setting. In the Automatic setting, the blower will not operate until the sensor reaches 120°F. This will take about 10 minutes in most installations.

Converse y. once the burner is off, the blower will continue to operate until the snapstat cools down to no°F and shuts off power to the blower.

If the blower is not needed, place the blower control switch in the OFF position and the snapstat will not function.

CAUTION: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE BLOWER UNIT FROM THE POWER SUPPLY WHEN PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.

Maintenance

The GI 550 DV gas fireplace and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service technician.

IMPORTANT:

ALWAYS TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE FIREPLACE AND UNPLUG THE FORCED AIR BLOWER BEFORE ANY SERVICE WORK IS PERFORMED ON THE FIREPLACE.

Annual Cleaning

Vent System

The entire vent system, including the chimney, should be inspected and cleaned every year. If the intake and exhaust venting is disassembled for any reason, it should be reassembled and sealed according to the vent manufacturer's instructions provided at the initial installation.

Burner and Log Set

Periodically inspect: the Firebox, Valve Compartment, Blower Assembly and Convection Airways to BE CERTAIN THAT THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR IS UNOBSTRUCTED.

The firebox should be vacuumed at least annually to remove any surface build up. Use a soft brush attachment and handle the logs carefully as they are fragile. Be sure to vacuum or wipe off the pilot assembly, burner orifice and burner tube.

Glass Care

Clean the glass as necessary. Wipe the surface with a clean, dampened, soft cloth. Follow with a dry, soft towel. Take care not to scratch the glass surface.

Scan 70i: Sliding Glass Panel Care
