MASONRY FIREPLACE INSERT INSTALLATION, MODEL FPI

The Fireplace Insert model includes surround face plates and a pedestal. When installing this unit, ensure that the pedestal is removed from its box and installed on the bottom of the unit. (Surround assembly instructions are in this manual).

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES:

 

 

Side wall

8” (200 mm) from the body of the heater

Facing on masonry fireplace

8” (200 mm) from the body of the heater

Mantle

8” (200 mm) from the body of the heater

FIREPLACE INSERT SIZE:

 

 

Width

22”

(550 mm)

Height

22 ¾”

(570 mm)

Depth

24”

(600 mm)

A noncombustible hearth pad must cover combustible flooring underneath, as well as 6” (150 mm) in front of the heater and 6” (150 mm) to the side of the heater

1.Install the hearth pad

2.Lock fireplace damper in the open position

3.Install positive flue connector at the fireplace dampers.

4.Connect a tee or 90-° degree elbow to the exhaust pipe

5.This fireplace insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner of 3 or 4” diameter extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney. The liner must conform to type 3 requirements of CAN/ULC S635.

6.(Recommended) Install fresh air intake either through the

back of the fireplace or through the positive flue connector..

When installing the insert into a masonry fireplace DO NOT remove any bricks or masonry, with the following exception; Masonry or steel, including the damper plate, may be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent damper frame if necessary to accommodate a chimney liner. Provided that their removal will not weaken the structure of the fireplace and chimney, and will not reduce protection for combustible materials to less than that required by the national building code.

When installing the fireplace insert into a zero clearance fireplace, DO NOT cut or modify any factory firebox parts. If the fireplace insert does not fit into a zero clearance fireplace we recommend you use an ENVIROFIRE model FS and

install as a hearth mounted unit. Install a 3” (76 mm) flex pipe from the stove to the top of the chimney.

BIH, FS, FPI specifications

Enviro FPI, FS, and BIH are innovative technologies that have significantly contributed to the field of environmental protection and sustainability. These systems are designed to address various environmental challenges by utilizing advanced features and methodologies that promote efficiency and effectiveness.

The Enviro FPI (Floating Photovoltaic Installation) is a groundbreaking technology that involves the installation of solar panels on bodies of water. This approach not only generates renewable energy but also minimizes land use, which is critical in densely populated areas. The floating structure reduces water evaporation and helps maintain water quality by limiting algae growth. Additionally, the cooling effect of water can enhance the efficiency of solar panels, resulting in higher energy output.

The Enviro FS (Floating System) expands upon the principles of FPI by integrating multiple environmental functionalities. This system includes features such as water filtration and oxygenation, which are essential for improving aquatic ecosystems. The incorporation of bioremediation technologies allows for the natural degradation of pollutants, making it a multifunctional solution for water bodies facing contamination. The FS system is engineered to blend seamlessly into its environment, ensuring minimal disruption to local wildlife and habitats.

The Enviro BIH (Biodegradable Industrial Hemp) represents a leap forward in sustainable materials. Utilizing industrial hemp, this technology creates biodegradable products that can replace conventional plastics. Hemp is known for its fast growth rate and low environmental impact, making it a viable alternative for various industries. The use of BIH not only helps reduce plastic waste but also supports sustainable agriculture and provides economic opportunities for farmers.

All three technologies embody key characteristics that make them stand out in the field of environmental innovation. They are designed with sustainability at their core, emphasizing the importance of balancing human activity with ecological preservation. The integration of renewable energy generation, pollution remediation, and the use of biodegradable materials showcases a holistic approach to modern environmental challenges.

Furthermore, these technologies are scalable and adaptable, allowing for implementation in various contexts, from urban settings to rural areas. As awareness of environmental issues continues to grow, solutions like Enviro FPI, FS, and BIH play an essential role in promoting a greener and more sustainable future for generations to come. Through their combined efforts, these technologies pave the way toward a more responsible relationship with our planet.
