surface like a wood floor. This unit can also be
installed directly on carpeting or vinyl when
the bottom pedestal cover plate (provided with
unit) is installed.
This appliance may be installed only with the
clearances as shown in the situations pictured.
Do not combine clearances from one type of

flueing system.
WARNING:Operationofthisheaterwhennot
connected to a properly installed and main-
tained flueing system can result in carbon
monoxide(CO)poisoningandpossibledeath.

GAS CONNECTION
The gas line should be rigid pipe. Copper may
also be used if approved by AS5601-2004.
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) Makesurethevalveisinthe"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" 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
tightenthescrew(clockwise) witha1/8"flat

TEST FOR FLUE
SPILLAGE
A "spillage" test must be made before the
installed unit is left with the customer. Follow
the procedure below:
1) Start all exhaust fans in the home and any
other gas appliances. Then close all doors
and windows.
2) Lightthe unitand setcontrols tomaximum.
3) After five minutes, test that there is a "pull"
on the flue by placing a smoke match,
cigarette or similar device which gives off
smoke, on the edge of the draft diverter.
See diagrams.
The smoke should be drawn into the draft
diverter. If the smoke is not drawn into the draft
diverter,turntheunitoffandcheckforthecause

FIRST FIRE
The FIRST FIRE in your heater is part of the
paint curing process. To ensure that the paint
is properly cured, it is recommended that you
burn your fireplace for at least four (4) hours
the first time you use it with the fan on.
When first operated, the unit will release an
odour caused by the curing of the paint and
the burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing. Smoke detectors in the house
may go off at this time. Open a few windows
toventilatetheroomfor acouple ofhours.The
glass may require cleaning.
NOTE: The main burner will always start on
"HIGH"andresumeit'slastsettingafter
20 seconds of operation.
NOTE: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS STILL HOT!

NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
fromyourgasappliance.Thisisperfectlynormal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listedbelowaresomeexamples.Allarenormal
operatingsoundsandshouldnotbeconsidered
as defects in your appliance.
Blower:
Regency gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a differ-
ent gauge material from the rest of the firebox
andbody. Therefore,the varyingthicknesses of
steelwillexpandandcontractatslightlydifferent
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur.Again, this is normal
for steel fireboxes.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dullclickingsoundmaybeaudible,thisisnormal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.
