Regency Wood Insert & Hearth Heater 5
INSTALLATION
Regency Inserts are constructed with the highest quality materials and assembled under strict
quality control procedures that insure years of
trouble free and reliable performance.
It is important that you read this manual thoroughly and fully understand the safe installation and operating procedures. The more
you understand the way your Regency Insert
operates, the more enjoyment you will experience from knowing that your unit is operating
at peak performance.
BEFORE INSTALLING
YOUR INSERT
1) Read all instructions before installing and
using your fi replace insert. Install and use
only in accordance with manufacturer’s
installation and operating instructions.
2) Check your local building codes - Building
Inspection Department. You may require
a permit before installing your insert. Be
aware that local codes and regulations may
override some items in the manual.
WARNING: Careless installation is the
major cause of safety hazard. Check all
local building and safety codes before
installation of unit.
3) Notify your home insurance company that
you plan to install a fi replace insert or hearth
heater.
4) Your fi replace insert is heavy and requires
two or more people to move it safely. The
insert can be badly damaged by mishandling.
5) If your existing fi replace damper control
will become inaccessible once you have
installed your Regency Insert, you should
either remove or secure it in the open position.
6) Inspect your fi replace and chimney prior
to installing your insert to determine that it
is free from cracks, loose mortar or other
signs of damage. If repairs are required,
they should be completed before installing
your insert. Do not remove bricks or mortar
from your masonry fi replace.
7) Do not connect the insert to a chimney
system servicing another appliance or an
air distribution duct.
Emissions from burning wood or gas could
contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
CHIMNEY
SPECIFICATIONS
Before installing, check and clean your chimney
system thoroughly. If in doubt about its condition, seek professional advice. Your Regency
Insert is designed for installation into a masonry
fi replace that is constructed in accordance with
the requirements of "The Standard for Chimneys,
Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning Appliance", N.F.P.A. 211, the National Building
Code of Canada, or the applicable local code
requirements.
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFP A 70, or the Canadian
Electrical code, CSA C22.1.
Regency Inserts are designed with a 6" (152mm)
fl ue.
Requirements for Installing
Solid-fuel Inserts in Factory-built
Fireplaces.
1) The insert must be tested and meet the
requirements of UL 1482 (U.S.) and or ULC
S628 (Canada) when tested in a masonry
fi replace built per ULC S628.
2) The factory-built fi replace must be listed per
UL 127 or ULC S610.
3) Clearances obtained from the masonry fi re-
place tests are also relevant for installation
in factory-built fi replaces.
4) Installation must include a full height listed
chimney liner type HT requirements (2100
degree F.) per UL 1777 (U.S.) or ULC
S635 (Canada). The liner must be securely
attached to the insert fl ue collar and the
chimney top.
5) Means must be provided to prevent room
air passage to the chimney cavity of the
fi replace. This may be accomplished by
sealing the damper area around the chimney
liner, or sealing the fi replace front.
6) Alteration of the fi replace in any manner is not
permitted with the following exceptions;
a. external trim pieces which do not affect
the operation of the fi replace may be
removed providing they can be stored
on or within the fi replace for re-assembly
if the insert is removed.
b. the chimney damper may be removed
to install the chimney liner.
7) Circulating air chambers (i.e. in a steel
fi replace liner or metal heat circulator) shall
not be blocked.
8) Means must be provided for removal of the
insert to clean the chimney fl ue.
9) Inserts that project in front of the fi replace
must be supplied with appropriate supporting
means.
10) Installer must mechanically attach the supplied label to the inside of the fi rebox of the
fi replace into which the insert is installed.
"WARNING: This fi replace has been converted
for use with a wood insert only and cannot be
used for burning wood or solid fuels unless
all original parts have been replaced, and the
fi replace re-approved by the authority having
jurisdiction."
In order for a solid-fuel insert to be certifi ed
for use in factory-built fi replaces, the above
information must be clearly stated in the installation manual and appropriate markings. Final
approval is contingent on the authority having
jurisdiction.
