HORIZONTAL VENT DEFLECTOR INSTALLATION
NAILING STRIPS
The side, top and bottom nailing strips come attached to the unit. There
are 3 plates on each side and 2 on the bottom - 8 in total. They can be
foldedoutasrequired. Thebottomnailingstripissecuredtotheunfinished
floor - if installing the unit directly on the floor.
Note: This installation is only required for horizontal terminations. If any
rise is used when venting this unit - the deflector and extender are
not required.
1) The deflector and extender are shipped on top of the firebox. Slide
the deflector out from under the nailing strip and lift the extender up
off the nailing strip.
2) Removethe3screwsneartheventoutletonthefirebox-asshownbelow.
3) Installthedeflectorneartheventoutlet-securewiththesame3screws.
Ensure flange on deflector is facing downward.
4) Install the extender on top of the deflector with 2 screws - slide the
extender until it touches the outside wall - tighten screws to secure.
Extender can be adjusted to max. 15-1/2".

TheStandoffsandNailingStripsmustbecorrectlypositionedandattached
to the firebox before unit is slid into position.
STANDOFF ASSEMBLY
The side, top and rear standoffs are shipped in a flat position and must
be folded into shape and attached.
1) Remove the standoffs from the fireplace.
2) Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the
bend lines until the screw holes in the standoff and the pre-punched
screw holes on the fireplace side line up.
3) Attach the standoff securely to the side with 2 screws per standoff (on
opposite corners).
Nailing Strips shown folded out.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Framing depth measurement is noted with the
side & top nailing strips set as far forward on
the firebox as possible. The nailing strips can
be adjusted back up to 1” to allow for varying
thicknesses in non-combustible material & wall
finishes.

INSTALLATION
Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there is
access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2) The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. You must
maintain clearances from the vent to combustible materials: See "Clear-
ances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the side and
back standoffs and the stove base.
3) Non-combustible material (ie. tile, slate, etc) may be brought up to and
overlap the unit (top and bottom) ensuring that the maximum thickness
does not go beyond the 1-1/2" as shown in the diagram below. The
faceplate will not be able to be mounted if the finished material is beyond
1-1/2".
FRAMING & FINISHING
1) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
IMPORTANT: Vertical studs and the header must be metal.
Note:
Dependingon the material used forfinishing,thenailingstripsmust be set ac-
cordinglysothatthefinishedmaterialisalwaysatthe1-1/2"edgeoftheflange.
4) If material such as brick, stone, etc. extends past the faceplate depth,
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.

INSTALLATION
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.
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.

Regency Horizon™ HZ42STE Gas Fireplace 19
INSTALLATION
VENTING INTRODUCTION
The HZ42STE 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 ARRANGEMENTS
ALLOWABLE HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS FOR HZ42 ST
The diagram shows all allowable combinations of vertical runs with horizontal terminations, using one 45ºand one 90º(two 45o elbows equal to one
90o) for direct horizontal runs with horizontal termination use only one 45ºelbow.
Note: Must use optional rigid pipe adapter (Part# 510-994) when using Rigid Pipe Venting Systems.
VENT RESTRICTOR SETTING:
Vent restrictor factory set, no adjustment required unless otherwise indicated.
Refertothe"VentRestrictorPosition"sectionfordetails onhowtochangethe ventrestrictorfromthefactorysetting ofSet0toSet1 orSet2ifrequired.
Note: Regency®Direct Vent System (Flex) is only approved for horizontal terminations.
• 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 wall thimble is mandatory for all horizontal terminations due to high temperatures.
• Flex system can only be used up to 10 feet - otherwise rigid venting must be used.
Please note the minimum centerline for
basic install shown above.

Notes:
1) Liner sections should be continuous without any
joints or seams.
2) Only Flex pipe purchased from Regency®may be
used for Flex installations
3) Horizontal vent must be supported every 3 feet.
4) Regency®DirectVentSystem(Flex)isonlyapproved
