Regency®PG36-5 Gas Log Fireplace 7
INSTALLATION
Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel clearances from the top of unit are shown
in the diagrams below.
COMBUSTIBLE MANTELS
These drawings are to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6 inches)
Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area or higher using the
above scale.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing
is "heat resistant" or the paint may discolour.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower
height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with
a non-combustible board.

MANTEL LEG
CLEARANCES
Combustible mantel leg clearances as per
diagram below:
FRAMING AND

1) Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the finished surface to be flush with
the front of the unit. Total facing thickness
canvaryfrom1/2"(13mm)to1-1/4"(32mm)

from the flue to combustible materials
for flex (1-1/4" (32mm) for Simpson

local installation codes. (Do not insulate
the fireplace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than

Do not use combustible material as lining (eg.
timber) around the fireplace as shown in the
shaded area in the diagram below.

Regency®PG36-5 Gas Log Fireplace 9
INSTALLATION
FLUEING
INTRODUCTION
The PG36 uses the "balanced flue" technology
CoAxial system. The inner liner flues products
of combustion to the outside while the outer
liner draws outside combustion air into the
combustion chamber thereby eliminating the
needtouseheatedroomairforcombustionand
losing warm room air up the chimney.
Note: These flue pipes must not be
connected to any other appliance.
The gas appliance and flue system must be
flued directly to the outside of the building,
and never be attached to a chimney serving a
separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.
Each Co Axial Flue gas appliance must use
it's own separate flue system. Common flue
systems are prohibited.
Beforetheunitisslidintoposition,installthe
provided spacers to the side of the fireplace
as follows;
1) Align the screw locations on spacer with
screw locations on the side of the firebox
and secure in place using 3 screws.
2) Repeat for other side.
NOTE: The side nailing strips are to be in-
stalled to the spacer after the spacer
is attached to the unit.

Top Standoff Assembly
The top standoffs are shipped in a flat position

screw holes in the standoff and the pre-
punched screw holes on the fireplace top
line up.
3) Attach the standoff securely to the top with
2screwsperstandoff(onoppositecorners).
Top Facing Support
Side Nailing Strips
Determine the total thickness of facing material
(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the
finished surface to be flush with the front of the
unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"
(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
The Top Facing Support can be mounted in 3
different positions depending on the thickness
of the facing material.
2) Fold out the two nailing strips on each side.

8) Slide the appliance and flue assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the
flue pipe into the flue cap assembly. It is
important that the flue pipe extends into
the flue cap sufficient distance so as to
result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4
inches.Secure theconnectionbetweenthe
flue pipe and the flue cap by attaching the
two sheet metal strips extending from the
flue cap assembly into the outer wall of the
flue pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws
provided to connect the strips to the pipe
section. See Diagram 4.
9) Install wall thimble in the center of the
10" square and attach with wood screws
(Diagram 5).
HORIZONTAL
TERMINATIONS
Install the flue system according to the
manufacturer's instructions included with
the components.
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to
determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in
thewaywhentheflueingsystemisattached.
If this is the case, you may want to adjust
the location of the unit. Rough in the gas
preferably on the right side of the unit and
the electrical (junction block is on the left
side) on the left.

3) Putabeadofsiliconeinsidetheoutersection
of the adapter and a bead of Stove Mate on

existinginnerandouterfluecollarandfasten
to the outer collar only with the 3 supplied
screws (drilling pilot holes will make this
easier). Level the fireplace and fasten it to
the framing using nails or screws through
the nailing strips.
4) Assemble the desired combination of pipe
and elbows to the appliance adaptor and
twist-lock for a solid connection.
Note:
a) Twist-lockprocedure:Fourindentations,
locatedon thefemaleendsofpipesand

b) Horizontal runs of flue must be

are available for this purpose.
5) Mark the wall for a 10" x 10" (254mm x
254mm) square hole. The center of the
squareholeshouldlineupwiththecenterline
of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 10
inch (254mm) square hole in the exterior
wall where the flue will be terminated. If the

External Flue Terminal Locations, see
diagraminthe"ExteriorFlueTermination
Locations" section.
6) The arrow on the flue cap should
be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2"
clearances to combustible materials are
maintained. Install the termination cap,
diagram 5.
The four wood screws provided should
be replaced with appropriate fasteners for
stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of
sidings.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff
or furring strips must be used to
ensure that the termination is not
recessed into the siding.
7) Before connecting the horizontal run of
flue pipe to the flue termination, slide the
Wall Thimble (Part # 620-926) over the flue
pipe.
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner
pipe and high temperature silicone
sealant to outer pipe on every twist-
lock joint.
Note: With Dura-Vent,
the minimum
height is
achieved by
installinga90o

VERTICAL
TERMINATIONS
1) Maintain the 1-1/4" (32mm)
clearances (air spaces) to
combustibles when passing
through ceilings, walls, roofs,
enclosures, attic rafter, or other
nearby combustible surfaces.
Do not pack air spaces with
insulation. Check seciotn
"Simpson Dura-vent Flueing"
for the maximum vertical rise of
the flueing system and the
maximumhorizontaloffset
limitations.

You may wish
to relocate the
appliance or to

in Diagram 2
to avoid cutting
load bearing
members.
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the
floor or ceiling of every level. To install the
Firestop spacer in a flat ceiling or wall,
cut a 10 inch square hole. Frame the hole
as shown in Diagram 3 and install the
firestop.
4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and
elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow
connections are in the fully twist-locked
position and sealed.
5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small
drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The
hole should be of sufficient size to meet
the minimum requirements for clearance
to combustibles of 1-1/2" (38mm). Slip the
flashingundertheshingles(shinglesshould
overlap half the flashing) as per Diagram

Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing is
installed under the roofing material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed. This
allows for small adjustments.
6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic
toavoid obstructions,it isimportant
to support the flue pipe every 3 feet,
to avoid excessive stress on the
elbows, and possible separation.
Wall straps are available for this
purpose (Diagram 2).

The gas connection at the valve is 1/2 male.
For minimum and maximum supply pressure
see the System Data Table.
GAS PIPE PRESSURE
TESTING
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.45
kPa). Disconnectpipingfromvalveatpressures
over 3.45 kPa (14" w.c.).
Themanifoldpressureiscontrolledbyaregulator
builtintothegascontrol,andshouldbechecked
at the pressure test point.
Note: To properly check gas pressure,
both inlet and manifold pressures
should be checked using the valve
pressure ports on the valve.
1) Make sure the valve is in the "OFF"
position.
2) Loosen the "IN" (# 3) and/or "OUT" (# 4)
pressure tap(s), turning counterclockwise
with a 1/8" wide flat screwdriver.
3) Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT"
pressure tap(s) using a 5/16" (8mm) ID
hose.
4) Seal and or check the pilot outlet (# 8)
5) The pressure check should be carried out
with the unit burning and the setting should
be within the limits specified on the safety
label.
6) When finished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tightenthe screw(clockwise) witha1/8"flat
