Pro-Com Fireplace Insert - Thermocouple Replacement?

Nov 25, 2021 0 Replies

A friend has a ProCom Model FBD32RT fireplace insert. The pilot light won't stay lit. He has the operation manual, but no service manual. I searched for videos and a service manual, but no luck.



I want to test and maybe replace the thermocouple but I'm not sure how to get to the back of the main gas valve where the tail-end screws in.



I can see where the tail end screws into the valve, but there is no way to get a wrench on it by coming in from the front or down through the ? "floor" of the insert. It looks to me like you need to completely remove the main gas valve, which means basically dismantling most of the insert, removing the gas lines from the valve, etc.



If it was my insert, I'd start ripping into it, but I don't want to tear into somebody else's unit. Figure'd I'd take a shot and see if anyone is familiar with this unit.



Any suggestions would be appreciated.
