INSTALLATION
Before installing, check and clean your chimney
system thoroughly. If in doubt about its condi-
tion, seek professional advice. Your Regency
Insert is designed for installation into a masonry
replace that is constructed in accordance with
the requirements of "The Standard for Chimneys,
Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning Ap-
pliance", N.F.P.A. 211, the National Building
Code of Canada, or the applicable local code
requirements.
The appliance, when installed, must be electri-
cally grounded in accordance with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian
Electrical code, CSA C22.1.
Regency Inserts are designed to use either a
5.5" (140mm) or 6" (152mm) ue.
The insert must be tested and meet the
requirements of UL 1482 (U.S.) and or ULC
S628 (Canada) when tested in a masonry
replace built per ULC S628.
The factory-built replace must be listed per
UL 127 or ULC S610.
Clearances obtained from the masonry re-
place tests are also relevant for installation
in factory-built replaces.
Installation must include a full height listed
chimney liner type HT requirements (2100
degree F.) per UL 1777 (U.S.) or ULC
S635 (Canada). The liner must be securely
attached to the insert ue collar and the
chimney top.
Means must be provided to prevent room
air passage to the chimney cavity of the
replace. This may be accomplished by
sealing the damper area around the chimney
liner, or sealing the replace front.
Alteration of the replace in any manner is not
permitted with the following exceptions;
external trim pieces which do not affect
the operation of the replace may be
removed providing they can be stored
on or within the replace for re-assembly
if the insert is removed.
the chimney damper may be removed
to install the chimney liner.
Regency Inserts are constructed with the high-
est quality materials and assembled under strict
quality control procedures that insure years of
trouble free and reliable performance.
It is important that you read this manual thor-
oughly and fully understand the safe instal-
lation and operating procedures. The more
you understand the way your Regency Insert
operates, the more enjoyment you will experi-
ence from knowing that your unit is operating
at peak performance.
Please read this entire manual before you
install and use your new wood insert. Failure
to follow instructions may result in property
damage, bodily injury or even death. Install
and use only in accordance with manufactur-
er’s installation and operating instructions.
Check your local building codes - Building
Inspection Department. You may require
a permit before installing your insert. Be
aware that local codes and regulations may
override some items in the manual.
Notify your home insurance company that
you plan to install a replace insert or hearth
heater.
Your replace insert is heavy and requires
two or more people to move it safely. The
insert can be badly damaged by mishan-
dling.
If your existing replace damper control
will become inaccessible once you have
installed your Regency Insert, you should
either remove or secure it in the open posi-
tion.
Inspect your replace and chimney prior
to installing your insert to determine that it
is free from cracks, loose mortar or other
signs of damage. If repairs are required,
they should be completed before installing
your insert. Do not remove bricks or mortar
from your masonry replace.
Circulating air chambers (i.e. in a steel
replace liner or metal heat circulator) shall
not be blocked.
Means must be provided for removal of the
insert to clean the chimney ue.
Inserts that project in front of the replace
must be supplied with appropriate supporting
means.
Installer must mechanically attach the sup-
plied label to the inside of the rebox of the
replace into which the insert is installed.
In order for a solid-fuel insert to be certied
for use in factory-built replaces, the above
information must be clearly stated in the instal-
lation manual and appropriate markings. Final
approval is contingent on the authority having
jurisdiction.
Your replace opening requires the following
minimum sizes:
21.5"
25"
17"
Two faceplates are available to seal the replace
opening:
40" W x 30" H 48" W x 33" H
Emissions from burning wood or gas could
contain chemicals known to the State of Cali-
fornia to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
": This replace has been converted
for use with a wood insert only and cannot be
used for burning wood or solid fuels unless
all original parts have been replaced, and the
replace re-approved by the authority having
jurisdiction."

INSTALLATION
View from Rear of Insert
The Straight Flue Adaptor (Part #846-504)
shown here, may be used to produce a secure
connection between your ue connector and the
insert collar. Detailed installation instructions are
included with the kit.
Your insert is very heavy and will require two
or three people to move it into position. The
insert can be made a little lighter by removing
the cast iron door by opening it and lifting it
off its hinges. Be sure to protect your hearth
extension with a heavy blanket or carpet scrap
during the installation.
The convection grills are installed the
unit is positioned inside the replace.
Position the grill on the inside bodyface side and
fasten using the bolts, washers and nuts provided
(2 per side) as shown in the diagrams.

Clearance diagram for Installations
Side and Top facing is a maximum of 1.5" thick.
Floor protection must be non-combustible, insula-
tive material with an R value of 1.1 or greater.
Thermal oor protection is not required if the unit is
raised 3.5" minimum (measured from the bottom of
the stove). However, standard ember oor protec-
tion is required. It will need to be a non-combustible
material that covers 16" (406 mm) in the US and
18" (450 mm) in Canada to the front of the unit and
8" (200 mm) to the sides.
If the unit is not raised, thermal oor protection
required is 18" (450 mm) in the US and Canada.
All oor protection must be non-combustible (i.e.,
metals, brick, stone, mineral ber boards, etc.) Any
organic materials(i.e. plastics, wood paper prod-
ucts, etc.)are combustible and must not be used.
The oor protection specied includes some form
of thermal designation such as R-value (thermal
resistance) or k-factor (thermal conductivity).
The minimum required clearances to combustible materials when installed into a masonry or factory built replace are listed below.
11"/280mm 20"/508mm 12"/305mm 8"/200mm 18"/455mm 0.5"/13mm 8"/200mm
The specied oor protector should be 3/8"
(18mm) thick material with a K - factor of
0.84.
The proposed alternative is 4" (100mm) brick
with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8" (3mm) mineral
board with a K-factor of 0.29.
Use formula above to convert specication
to R-value.
R = 1/k x T = 1/0.84 x .75 = 0.893.
Calculate R of proposed system.
4" brick of C = 1.25, therefore
Rbrick = 1/C = 1/1.25 = 0.80
1/8" mineral board of k = 0.29, therefore
Rmin.bd. = 1/0.29 x 0.125 = 0.431
Total R = Rbrick + Rmineral board =
0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231.
Compare proposed system R of 1.231 to
specied R of 0.893. Since proposed system
R is greater than required, the system is
acceptable.
C = Btu = W
(hr)(ft2 )(oF) (m2))(K)
k = (Btu)(inch) = W = Btu
(hr)(ft3)(oF) (m)(K) (hr)(ft)(oF)
R = (ft2)(hr)(oF) = (m2)(K)

INSTALLATION
Positive Flue
Connection
with Cleanout
Package contains: 3 brackets and 6 screws.
These brackets are to be used to hold the ue
liner (not supplied) to the Insert and keep the
connection. The brackets are screwed into the
top of the Insert in the pre-punched holes and
then screwed into the ue liner.
The insert must be installed as per the require-
ments of your local inspection authority. Three
methods of ue connection are acceptable in
most areas in the US, however
Positive ue connection, where a large
blocking plate and a short connector pipe
is used.
Direct ue connection, where a smaller
blocking plate and a connector pipe to the
rst ue liner tile is used.
Full ue liner, where a stainless steel rigid
or exible liner pipe is routed from the insert
outlet collar to the top of the chimney.
Regency highly recommends the use of a full
liner as the safest installation and provides the
most optimum performance. Your retailer should
be able to help you decide which system would
be the best for your application.
Flush Inserts
Direct Flue
Connection
with Cleanout
Full Flue Liner
(No Cleanout Required)
The use of one of the connection methods listed
on this page not only increases the safety of your
insert by directing the hot gases up the ue, but
will also help increase the unit's efciency and
decrease creosote deposits in the chimney.
When a connected ue or liner is in use, the
insert is able to “breathe” better by allowing a
greater draft to be created. The greater draft can
decrease problems such as, difcult start-ups,
smoking out the door, and dirty glass.
When installed in a factory built replace, a
full stainless steel rigid or exible ue liner
is mandatory, for both safety and perform-
ance purposes. When a ue or liner is in
use, the insert is able to breathe better by
allowing a greater draft to be created. The
greater draft can decrease problems such
as, difcult start-ups, smoking out the door,
and dirty glass.
In order to position the ue liner, the exist-
ing rain cap must be removed from your
chimney system. In most cases the ue
damper should also be removed to allow
passage of the liner.
In most cases opening the existing spark
screens fully should give enough room for
the insert installation. If it does not, remove
and store.
If the oor of your replace is below the
level of the replace opening, adjust the
insert's levelling bolts to accommodate the
difference. When additional shimming is
required, use non-combustible masonry or
steel shims.
Measure approximately the alignment of
the ue liner with the position of the smoke
outlet hole on the insert to check for pos-
sible offset. If an offset is required, use a
proper stainless steel unit available with the
chimney liner.
Once the above items have been checked,
slide your insert into position after rst po-
sitioning the ue liner and offset if required.
(Re-install raincap at completion of installa-
tion).

INSTALLATION
Faceplate Assembly
Prior to sliding your insert into its nal position
and attaching the connector or liner pipe, the
faceplate side panel plates must be installed
as follows:
Slide the spring nuts (supplied) over the
slots in the insert’s side convection panels
(the spring nuts may need to be squeezed
with a pair of pliers rst, to help them stay
in position).
Screw the side faceplate panels, (item A in
the diagram) one to each side.
Using the top panel (item B in the diagram)
as a gauge, check that the side panels are
within approximately 1/4" of the overall width.
If the difference is greater than this, use
the supplied washers to attain the required
width.
The unit may now be slid into nal position
and attached to the connection system.
Once connection is made, the insulation strips
should be installed between the insert face-
plates and the replace face. The faceplate
top may now be installed (with insulation
strip behind) by aligning its brackets with the
top ange on the side shields and the angle
iron bar on the insert top. The faceplate trim
may be installed to the edge
of the faceplate at this time.
Now that your insert is installed, check once
more that all the clearances from the unit to
any combustible materials are correct as listed
earlier.

Before establishing your rst re, it is important
that your fully understand the operation of you
draft control. The draft rod is on the left side of
the Inserts and it controls the intensity of the re
by increasing or decreasing the amount of air
allowed into the rebox. To increase your draft
- pull open, and to decrease - push closed.
As well as a primary and glass wash air system,
the unit has a full secondary draft system that
allows air to the induction ports at the top of the
rebox, just below the ue bafe.
The unit arrives with the 2 bafe plates on the
oor of the rebox.
If all 4 air tubes are installed continue on
to Step 2), if not, follow the instructions
below. Install the air tube into the holes in
the side channels. The notch goes on the
right hand side with the air holes facing
toward the door. Slide the tube into the left
hand side, as far as possible and then bring
it back into the hole on the right hand side.

Check
the position of the bafes on a regular basis as
they can be dislodged if too much fuel is forced
into the rebox.
Please check to ensure that your oor protection
and hearth will meet the standards for clearance
to combustibles. Your hearth extension must be
made from a non-combustible material.
Firebrick is included to extend the life of your
insert and radiate heat more evenly. Check to

INSTALLATION
When your installation is completed and in-
spected, you are ready for your rstre.
Open draft control fully.
Open rebox door and build a small re using
paper and dry kindling on the rebrick hearth,
wait a few minutes for a good updraft in the
ue to establish the re. Leaving the door
slightly open will help your re start more
rapidly.
With the draft still in the fully open position,
add two or three seasoned logs to your re.
Form a trench in the ash bed to allow air to
reach the rear of the rebox prior to closing
the door.
After about 15 to 20 minutes, when your
wood has begun to burn strongly, adjust
your draft control down to keep the re at a
moderate level.
Once a bed of coals has been established,
you may adjust the draft control to a low
setting to operate the unit in its most efcient
mode.
During the rst couple of hours, keep the
combustion rate at a moderate level and
avoid a large re until the paint is cured.
Only then can you operate the insert at its
maximum setting, and only after the metal
has been warmed.
For the rst few hours, the insert will give off
an odor from the paint. This is to be expected
as the high temperature paint becomes sea-
soned. Windows and/or doors should be left
open to provide adequate ventilation while
this temporary condition exists. Burning the
insert at a very high temperature the rst few
times may damage the paint. Burn res at
a moderate level the rst few days.
Do not place anything on the insert top
during the curing process. This may result
in damage to your paint nish.
Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern
fuels, kerosene, charcoal lighter fuel, or
similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a re
in your heater. Keep all such liquids well
away from the heater while it is in use.
Keep the door closed during operation and
maintain all seals in good condition.
Do not burn large quantities of paper in your
insert.
If you have smoke detectors, prevent smoke
spillage as this may set off a false alarm.
Do not overre your insert. If the insert begin
to glow, you are overring. Stop adding
fuel and close the draft control. Overring
can cause extensive damage to your stove
including warpage and premature steel cor-
rosion. Overring will void your warranty.
Do not permit creosote or soot buildup in the
chimney system. Check and clean chimney
at regular intervals.
Your Regency Insert can be very hot. You
may be seriously burned if you touch the
insert while it is operating. Warn children
of the burn hazard.
The insert consumes air while operating,
provide adequate ventilation with an air
duct or open a window while the insert is in
use.
Do not use grates, irons or other methods
for supporting fuel. Burn directly on the
bricks.
Open the draft control fully for 10 to 15
seconds prior to slowly opening the door
when refuelling the re.
Do not connect your unit to any air distribu-
tion duct.
Your insert should burn dry, standard re-
wood only. The use of “mill ends” is discour-
aged as this fuel can easily overheat your
insert. Evidence of excessive overheating
will void your warranty. As well, a large por-
tion of sawmill waste is chemically treated
lumber, which is illegal to burn in many areas.
Chemically treated re logs also must not
be burned in your insert.
Do not store any fuel closer than 2 feet from
your unit.
Do not burn salt drift wood as it will corrode
your unit and void the warranty.
Do not operate the unit if the glass is broken
or missing. Do not operate the unit if the
gasketing is worn out and not sealing the
door or the glass.
It is very important to carefully maintain your
insert, including burning seasoned wood and
maintaining a clean stove and chimney system.
Have the chimney cleaned before the burning
season and as necessary during the season, as
creosote deposits may build up rapidly. Moving
parts of your insert require no lubrication.

During constant use, ashes should be removed
every few days. Please take care to prevent the
build-up of ash around the start-up air housing
located inside the rebox, under the loading
door lip.
Only remove ashes when the re has died down.
Even then, expect to nd a few hot embers.
Always leave 1 to 2 inches of ash in the bottom
of the rebox. This helps in easier starting and
a more uniform burn of your re.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with
a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes
should be placed on a noncombustible oor or
on the ground, well away from all combustible
materials, pending nal disposal. If the ashes
are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled. Other waste should not be placed in the
ash container.
Removal of your insert for cleaning purposes
is usually not required if a proper installation
has been done. In the event that removal is re-
quired, be sure not to damage any parts needed
for re-installation. In most cases removal and
replacement of the bafe system should allow
full access for cleaning.
:
Burn insert with draft control wide open for
about 45 minutes every morning during burn-
ing season. This helps to prevent creosote
deposits within the heating system.
Burn insert with draft control wide open for
about 10 - 15 minutes every time you add
fresh wood. This allows the wood to achieve
the charcoal stage faster and burns up any
wood vapors which might otherwise be
deposited within the system.
Do not burn
wet or green wood. Seasoned wood that
has been dried at least one year must be
used.
A small hot re is preferable to a large
smouldering one that can deposit creosote
within the system.
Check the chimney at least twice a month
during the burning season for creosote
build-up.
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and
other organic vapors, which form creosote when
combined with moisture. The creosote vapors
condense in the relatively cool chimney ue of a
slow-burning re. As a result, creosote residue
accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited, this
creosote can make an extremely hot re.
The fan is to be operated only with the draft
control rod
The fan is not to be oper-
ated when the draft control rod is in the closed
position (pushed in). The fully closed position is
the low burn setting.
The fan unit must not be turned on until a re
has been burning for at least 30 minutes and
the unit is hot enough. As well, after each fuel
loading the fan must be shut off until 30 minutes
has elapsed.
To operate fan automatically, push switch on
side of fan housing to "Auto" and second switch
to either "High" or "Low" for fan speed. The
automatic temperature sensor will engage the
blower when the unit is at temperature and will
shut off the blower once the re has gone out
and the unit has cooled to below a useful heat
output range.
To manually operate the fan system, push the
rst switch to "Man" and second switch to either
"high" or "Low". This will bypass the sensing
device and allow full control of the fan. Switching
from "Auto" to "Manual" or "High" to "Low" may
be done at any time.
During the rst few hours it may be more
difcult to start the re. As you dry out
your re brick and your masonry ue (if
applicable), your draft will increase.
For those units installed at higher elevations
or into sub-standard masonry replaces,
drafting problems may occur. Consult an
experienced dealer or mason on methods
of increasing your draft.
Some cracking and popping noises may be
experienced during the heating up process.
These noises will be minimal when your unit
reaches temperature.
Before opening your door to reload, open
draft fully for approximately 10 to 15 seconds
until re has been re-established. This will
minimize any smoking.
All fuel burning appliances consume oxygen
during operation. It is important that you
supply a source of fresh air to your unit
while burning. A slightly opened window is
sufcient for this purpose.
Green or wet wood is not recommended for
your unit. If you must add wet or green fuel,
open the draft control fully until all moisture
has been dispersed by the intense re.
Once all moisture has been removed, the
draft control may be adjusted to maintain
the re.
If you have been burning your insert on a
low draft, use caution when opening the
door. After opening the damper, open the
door a crack, and allow the re to adjust
before fully opening the door.
The controls of your unit should not be
altered to increase ring for any reason.
Store wood under cover, such as in a shed, or
covered with a tarp, plastic, tar paper, sheets
of scrap plywood etc., as uncovered wood can
absorb water from rain or snow, delaying the
seasoning process.

The gold electroplated nish on the doors requires
little maintenance, and need only be cleaned with
a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasive materials or
chemical cleaners, as they may harm the nish
and void the warranty.
If the door gasket requires replacement, 7/8"
diameter material must be used. A proper high
temperature gasket adhesive is required. A gasket
repair kit, Part # 846-570 is available from your
local Regency dealer.
The door latch may require adjustment as the
door gasket material compresses after a few
res. Removal of the spacer washer, shown in the
diagram below, will allow the latch to be moved
closer to the door frame, causing a tighter seal.
Remove and replace the nuts, washer as shown.
Only clean your glass window when it is cool.
Your local retailer can supply you with special
glass cleaner if plain water and a soft cloth does
not remove all deposits.
Your Regency Insert is supplied with 5 mm.
Neoceram ceramic glass (Part #846-304) that
will withstand the highest heat that your unit will
produce. In the event that you break your glass
by impact - purchase your replacement from an
authorized Regency dealer only, and follow our
step-by-step instructions.
Allow the stove to cool before removing or replacing
glass. Remove the door from the insert and remove
the glass retainer. Use caution when removing
broken glass to prevent injury.
When placing the replacement glass in the door,
make sure that the glass gasketing will properly seal
your unit. Replace the retainer and tighten securely,
but do not wrench down on the glass as this may
cause breakage. Do not substitute materials. If your
glass door does break, do not continue to use your
unit until it has been replaced.
Annual Maintenance
Completely clean out entire unit Annually
Inspect air tubes, baffles and bricks Replace any damaged parts.
Adjust door catch / latch If unable to obtain a tight seal on the door - replace door gasket seal.
Readjust latch after new gasket installed.
Inspect condition and seal of:
Glass Gasket
Door Gasket Perform paper test - replace gasket if required
Paper Test Test the seal on the loading door with a paper bill.
Place a paper bill in the gasketed area of the door on a cold stove–close
the door.
Try to remove the paper by pulling.
The paper should not pull out easily, if it does, try adjusting the door latch,
if that doesn't solve the problem replace the door gasket.
Check and lubricate door hinge + latch Use only high temperature anti seize lube. (ie. never seize)
Check glass for cracks Replace if required.
Clean blower motor Disconnect power supply.
Remove and clean blower.
*DO NOT LUBRICATE*
Inspect and clean chimney Annual professional chimney cleaning recommended.
