Caution: The non-combustible board supplied with this unit can
be damaged if dropped or struck. Handle with care.
1) Using drywall screws - secure non combustible material
around unit, framing and top nailing strip every 6 inches.
Important Note: To avoid cracking the board - pre-drill holes prior to
securing to unit/ framing.
2) Wipe any debris/dust from the non combustible
material and drywall.
3) Prior to taping and mudding it is highly recommended
to prime the facing using a quality primer. This will
ensure proper adhesion of both the tape and mud.
The supplied board is very porous.
4) Tape the seams using a mesh type tape.
5) Mud seams as normal. We recommend using a
product called Durabond high strength compound - for the first coat.
This product can be found at any hardware store.
Mud must be cured as per manufacturer’s recommendations.
6) Prime wall for a second time for proper adhesion of paint
7) Paint walls using a high quality paint which will withstand
the high temperatures being emitted from this appliance.
Note: Due to the high temperatures being emitted from
this appliance, mudded joints may crack.
Note: In addition to the supplied piece of non-combustible board - other
non-combustible boards will be required to complete
this installation. These materials can be found at most building
supply stores.

Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there
is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the
rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local instal-
lation codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)
WARNING:Failuretoinsulateandaddvaporbarrierstotheinside
of the exterior wall will result in operational and performance
problems including, but not limited to: excessive condensation
on glass doors, poor flame package, carbon, blue flames etc.
These are not product related issues.
3) The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. You
mustmaintainclearances fromtheventtocombustible materials:See
"Clearances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the
side and back standoffs and the stove base.

FRAMING & FINISHING
1) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
IMPORTANT: The framed opening must be of non-combustible
material.
5) If material such as brick, stone, etc extends past the faceplate depth
(1-1/2"), when finishing around the faceplate, the minimum opening
dimensions noted below must be adhered to ensuring for the removal
of the faceplate and for the safe operation of this appliance.
Note:
Depending on the material used for finishing, the nailing strips must be
set accordingly so that the finished material is always at the 1-1/2" edge
of the flange.

Vent restriction is required for certain venting installations, see the diagrams in the "Venting
Arrangements" section to determine if they are required for your installation.
The Vent Restrictor plate is located on the inside top of the firebox.
To set the vent restriction as indicated in the venting arrangements diagrams, refer to the following instructions;
1) Remove the glass door - see instructions in this manual.
2) Remove the screws that hold the vent restrictor plate in place.
3) Adjust the vent restrictor plate to the required vent restrictor position as per the diagrams shown.
4) Once the vent restrictor plate is in the required position, secure with screws.

VENTING INTRODUCTION
The HZ42 uses the "balanced flue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer liner
draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room
air up the chimney.
Note: These flue pipes must not be connected to any other appliance.
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid
fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.
VENTING ARRANGEMENT FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS
The diagram shows all allowable combinations of vertical runs with horizontal terminations, using one 90o(two 45o elbows equal one 90oelbow). (Not
including the starting 45o elbow at the flue collar when using rigid venting.)
Note: Must use optional rigid pipe adapter (Part# 510-994) when using Rigid Pipe Venting Systems.
• Maintain clearances to combustibles as listed in "Clearances" section
• Horizontal vent must be supported every 3 feet.
• Firestops are required at each floor level and whenever passing through a wall.
• A vent guard should be used whenever the termination is lower than the specified minimum or as per local codes.
• Flex system can only be used up to 10 feet - otherwise rigid venting must be used.
VENT RESTRICTOR SETTING:
Vent restrictor factory set at Set 0.
Refer to the "Vent Restrictor Position" section for details on how to change the vent restrictor from the factory setting of Set 0 to Set 1 if required.
Note: For horizontal terminations the Regency Direct Vent Flex System may be used for installations with a maximum continuous vent
length of up to 10 feet. If longer runs are required, rigid pipe must be used.
