GAS CONNECTION
Only persons licensed to work with gas piping
may make the necessary gas connections to
this appliance.
The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT accessible on
the left side of the unit. The gas line connection
may be made of rigid pipe, copper pipe or an
approved ex connector. (If you are using rigid
pipe, ensure that the valve can be removed
for servicing.) Since some municipalities have
additional local codes it is always best to consult
with your local authorities and the CAN/CGA
B149 installation code.
For USA installations follow local codes and/
or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or ex connectors use only
approved ttings. Always provide a union so that
gas lines can be easily disconnected for burner
or fan servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and
ex connectors are usually considered to meet
this requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks
with a soap and water solution or gas
leak detector. Do not use open ame
for leak testing.
For minimum and maximum supply pressure
see the System Data table.
1) If the appliance is to be installed into an
existing chimney system, thoroughly clean
the masonry replace that has been chosen
for the Regency® Gas Fireplace.

the left hand side of the control compartment
for the gas line.
Note: During any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system that exceeds test pressures
of 1/2 psig, this appliance and its individual
shut-off valve must be disconnected from the
piping system. If test pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 psig are used then this appliance must
be isolated from the piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-off valve during the

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). Disconnect piping from valve at pressures
over 1/2 psig.
The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator
built into the gas control, and should be checked
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" and/or "OUT" pressure
tap(s), turning counterclockwise with a 1/8"
wide at screwdriver.
3) Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT"
pressure tap(s) using a 5/16" ID hose.
4) Light the pilot and turn the valve to "ON"
position. Read manometer.
5) The pressure check should be carried out
with the unit burning and the setting should
be within the limits specied on the safety
label.
6) When nished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" at
screwdriver. Note: Screw should be snug,
but do not over tighten
VENTING
THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE
CONNECTED TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVING A SEPARATE SOLID FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCE.
This appliance is designed to attach to a 4"
diameter type B-Vent or double thickness approved
aluminium ex liner.
The ue collar of the appliance will t inside a
standard vent and may be fastened directly to
the vent by sheet metal screw or a B-Vent, single
wall vent connector.B-Vent chimneys require a 1"
clearance to combustibles.
A 3" diameter type B-Vent or approved aluminium
ex liner may also be used with a 4" to 3" reduc-
ing adapter. Consult venting charts and local code
requirements.
The Regency® Insert incorporates its own internal
draft hood, so no additional external draft hood is
required. Check periodically that the vent is unre-
stricted and an adequate draft is present when the
unit is in operation.
Before installing the vent system ensure that the
damper plate is locked into the open position and
secure to prevent the damper plate from falling
down and crushing the liner.
The appliance is equipped with a vent safety shutoff
system and a safety control system designed to
protect against improper venting of combustion
products. The appliance will not function without
being connected to a proper system.
WARNING: Operation of this heater
when not connected to a properly
installed and maintained venting
system or tampering with the vent
shut-off system can result in carbon
monoxide (CO) poisoning and
possible death.
This appliance must not be connected to a
chimney ue serving a separate solid fuel burn-
ing appliance.
For best venting performance, we recommend
the following venting rules:
1) Use only certied Type B gas vent or
approved ex liner.
2) Follow the vent manufacturer's instructions
and clearance requirements.
3) Observe any local code restrictions, if any,
regarding the installation of gas inserts.
4) Use as few elbows as possible.
5) Keep horizontal lengths as short as possible
and maintain at least an upward slope of
1/4 in. (6.4mm) for every 12 in. (305mm) of
horizontal run.
6) Terminate the vent with a suitable certied
vent cap.

performed by an authorized Regency®
Installer at the time of installation or
service.
a scrap piece of sheet metal (or other
noncombustible material) in the space
between the glass door and faceplate, this
will prevent the natural convection of the
unit from interfering with the test.
Note: The smoke should be drawn into the
spill tube. If the smoke is still not
drawn in, turn the unit off and check
for the cause of the lack of draft. If
necessary, seek expert advice.
