Because of the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Combustible mantel clearances from top of unit are shown in Diagrams 1 & 2.
REGENCY®COMBUSTIBLE MANTEL CLEARANCES
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.

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)
thick.
3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to
the same degree as the rest of the house,
apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per
local installation codes. (Do not insulate
the fireplace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep
(946mmhighx921mmwidex441mmdeep).
FRAMING AND FINISHING
Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both flex termination or

5) Use steel studs for framing where the

e.g. front top header.
NOTE: See next page for important
Barcelona™ Series framing note.
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing
Support, and Top Standoffs before unit is
slipped into position. See "Unit Assembly
Prior to Installation" section for assembly
details.

INSTALLATION
When installing the optional Tripoli Arch Door, a non-combustible material 12" (305mm) above the unit and 6" (153mm) on each side must be used. See
diagram 2. For complete framing dimensions - see page 57 in this manual.
The Tripoli Arch Door also requires steel stud framing above and on each side of the unit, see diagram 2.

UNIT ASSEMBLY
PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION
TheTopFacingSupport,theSideNailingStrips
and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly
positioned and attached to the top before unit
is slipped into position.
Top Standoff Assembly
The top standoffs are shipped in a flat position
and must be folded into shape and attached.
1) Removethestandoffsfromthefireplacetop.
2) Takeeachstandoffandbendintothecorrect
shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the
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).

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.
Eachdirectventgasappliancemustuseit'sown

are prohibited.
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.
1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3
