INSTALLATION

RESIDENTIAL

INSTALLATION

1. Please read this entire manual before you install

and use your new woodstove. Failure to follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury or even death. Be aware that local Codes and Regulations may override some items in this manual. Check with your local inspector.

2. Select a position for your Regency Stove. Consult

the minimum clearance chart for your model and set the stove in place. For installation use

listed double wall connector systems only.

3. To insure vertical alignment, suspend a plumb

bob from the ceiling over the exact center of your stove ﬂ ue and mark a spot on the ceiling to indicate the center of the chimney.

4. Check that the area above the ceiling is clear

for cutting. Re-conﬁ rm the clearance from the stove to combustibles to insure that they are within the prescribed limits.

5. This woodstove must be connected to a UL

103 HT (ULC S629) listed chimney or a code approved masonry chimney with a ﬂ ue liner.

Space heater is to be connected to a factory

built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-5629 standard for 650C factory built chimneys. The chimney requirement is 8", refer to appropriate sections in this manual for speciﬁ cs.

6. Install chimney according to chimney manu-

facturers instructions. The performance of your woodstove is governed to a very large part by the chimney system. Too short a chimney can cause difﬁ cult start-up, dirty glass, back smoking when door is open, and even reduced heat output.

Too tall a chimney may prompt excessive

draft which can result in very short burn times and excessive heat output. The use of an inexpensive ﬂ ue pipe damper may be helpful in reducing excessive draft.

CAUTION: The chimney should be the same

size as the 8" ﬂ ue outlet on the stove. The chimney must be listed as suitable for use with solid fuels. For other types of chimneys check with your local building code ofﬁ cials. Do not confuse a chimney with a type “B” Venting System used for gas appliances as suitable for a wood burning appliance. For Mobile Home installations refer to that section within this manual.

7. Mark the location of the pedestal base or legs

on the ﬂ oor, then move the stove aside and mark the position of the ﬂ oor protector.

8. The ﬂ oor protector must be of non-combustible

material and must extend 16" (406mm) in front of the door opening and 8" (203mm) to the sides and rear of the unit. Some areas may require a larger size ﬂ oor protector. See your local inspector. For outside air installation refer to Mobile Home installation instructions within this manual.

NOTE: In Canada, ﬂ oor protection must

extend 18" (450mm) to the front and 8" (203mm) to each side and back of the stove.

9. When the ﬂ oor protection is complete, position

the stove with the ﬂ ue collar centered under the installed chimney.

ROOM AIR - IMPORTANT

For installation using room air for combustion, remove knockout from the pedestal. Mobile home installations require the use of outside air. Fresh air is important - if heater is starved for air caused by exhaust fans or icing, the unit will not operate properly.

On pedestal units there are two locations where outside air may be adapted to the unit. If using the bottom of the pedestal, do not remove knockout from the rear of the pedestal. Only remove rear knockout if outside air will be brought in from the rear.

Note: Once the knockout is removed there are

two tabs remaining. Bend both tabs out for ease of installation of outside air kit.

10. In areas with frequent seismic activity, Regency

recommends that your unit is secured to the ﬂ oor by using the bolt down holes inside the pedestal (the same ones used in Mobile Home installations).

11. For residential installations 8" double wall

chimney only, the chimney connector must be at least 24 gauge steel. Do not use galvanized pipe. For Mobile Home installation refer to the Mobile Home installation instructions within this manual.

12. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

13. A chimney connector cannot pass through an

attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a ﬂ oor, ceiling, wall or partition of combustible construction. In Canada, if passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment.

14. Your Regency Woodstove is not to be connected to any 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.

CAUTION:

Do not alter or makeshift chimney or install. Install as per Manual.

WARNING: ONLY USE SPECIFIED COMPONENTS.

MODULAR INSTALLATION OPTIONS

The following items are required when assembling your Regency Stove. F5100 unit - the Rear Heat Deﬂ ector is supplied with the stove, but if you choose not to use it you must use the Airmate instead.

COMBUSTIBLE WALL CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PASS-THROUGHS

INSTALLATION

Method A: 12" (304.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall Member:

Using a minimum thickness 3.5" (89 mm) brick and a 5/8" (15.9 mm) minimum wall thickness clay liner, construct a wall pass-through. The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Speciﬁ cation for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent. Keep a minimum of 12" (304.8 mm) of brick masonry between the clay liner and wall combustibles. The clay liner shall run from the brick masonry outer surface to the inner surface of the chimney ﬂ ue liner but not past the inner surface.

Firmly grout or cement the clay liner in place to the chimney ﬂ ue liner.

Method B: 9" (228.6 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall Member:

Using a 8" (203.2 mm) inside diameter, listed, factory-built Solid-Pak chimney section with insulation of 1" (25.4 mm) or more, build a wall pass-through with a minimum 9" (228.6 mm) air space between the outer wall of the chimney length and wall combustibles. Use sheet metal supports fastened securely to wall surfaces on all sides, to maintain the 9" (228.6 mm) air space. When fastening supports to chimney length, do not penetrate the chimney liner (the inside wall of the Solid-Pak chimney).

STEP-BY-STEP

CHIMNEY AND

CONNECTOR

INSTALLATION

Note: These are a generic set of chimney

installation instructions. Always follow the manufacturers own instructions explicitly. Verify the Minimum Recommended Heights for Woodstove Flue (Table 1 in the Installation section).

1. With your location already established, cut

and frame the roof hole. It is recommended that no ceiling support member be cut for chimney and support box installation. If it is necessary to cut them, the members must be made structurally sound.

2. Install radiant shield and support from above.

3. Stack the insulated pipe onto your ﬁ nish sup-

port to a minimum height of 3 feet above the roof penetration, or 2 feet above any point within 10 feet measured horizontally. There must be at least 3 feet of chimney above the roof level.

8. To complete your chimney installation, install

the double wall connector pipe from the stove’s ﬂ ue collar to the chimney support device.

9. If you are using a horizontal connector, the

chimney connector should be as high as possible while still maintaining the 18" (457mm) minimum distance from the horizontal connector to the ceiling.

10. NOTE: Residential Close Clearance and Alcove installations require a listed double wall connector from the stove collar to the ceiling level.

The diagrams below illustrate one way to install your unit into a standard ceiling or with a horizontal connector. Check with your dealer or installer for information on other options available to you.

NOTE: Ensure each section of chimney is posi-

tively attached and secured.

Note: Increasing the chimney height above

this minimum level will sometimes help your unit to “breathe” better by allowing a greater draft to be created. This greater draft can decrease problems such as, difﬁ cult start-ups, back-smoking when door is open, and dirty glass. It might be sufﬁ cient to initially try with the minimum required height, and then if problems do arise add additional height at a later date.

4. Slide the roof ﬂ ashing over your chimney

and seal the ﬂ ashing to the roof with rooﬁ ng compound. Secure the ﬂ ashing to your roof with nails or screws.

5. Place the storm collar over the ﬂ ashing, seal-

ing the joints with a silicone caulking.

Standard Ceiling Installation

6. Fasten the raincap with spark screens (if

required) to the top of your chimney.

7. For optimum efﬁ ciency when installing into

a masonry chimney, size accordingly, i.e. the 8" (203.2mm) ﬂ ue dia. is 50.3 sq.in. (1272.62mm).

RECOMMENDED HEIGHTS FOR WOODSTOVE FLUE

Simple rules on draft (refer to Table 1).

1) At sea level minimum height is 12' straight.

2) Add the following vertical height to compen-

sate for: 45 deg. elbow = 1 ft. 90 deg. elbow = 2 ft. "T" = 3 ft. Each foot of horizontal run = 2 ft.

MINIMUM RECOMMENDED FLUE HEIGHTS IN FEET

9000-10000 16.5 17.5 20.5 22.0

NOTE: No more than one offsets (two elbows) allowed. Two 45o elbows

equal one 90o elbow.

3) Add 4% overall for each 1000' above sea level.

Example: a)

1-1/2 ft. of horizontal run = 3 ft. one "T" = 3 ft. Total Addition (at sea level) = 6 ft.

Example: b) One 90 deg. elbow = 2 ft. 2 ft. of horizontal run = 4 ft. one "T" = 3 ft. Total Addition (at sea level) = 9 ft.

Once you have properly marked the position of your unit and the ﬂ oor protection as outlined in the Residential Installation items #1 through #8, a supply of fresh air has to be supplied to your unit.

See Optional Outside Air Kit instructions in this manual.

Place your unit in position and secure it to the ﬂ oor using two lag bolts 3/8" (10mm) x 3-1/2" (89mm) through the two holes inside the pedestal base. It is important to maintain the structural integrity of the Mobile Home ﬂ oor, walls and roof when installing your unit.

For Mobile Home units installed in the U.S. the unit must be grounded using a #8 ground wire with approved termination and star washer.

CAUTION: At no time use unlabelled parts, or substitute parts made for another chimney system.

Install as per chimney manufacturer's installation instructions.

WARNING: Operate only with door fully closed - open feed door to feed ﬁ re only.

INSTALLATION

In addition to standard installation instructions the following requirements are mandatory for installation in a mobile home.

1. The stove must be permanently bolted to

the ﬂ oor of the Mobile Home using the ﬂ oor screws provided.

2. The stove must have a permanent outside

air source for combustion.

3. The stove must be electrically grounded to

the steel chassis of the Mobile Home.

4. A listed double-wall connector chimney

system, roof thimble, spark arrestor and roof ﬂ ashing kit suitable for use in Mobile Homes must be used.

5. If the chimney exits the Mobile Home at a

location other than through the roof, and exits at a point 7ft. (2130mm) or less above the ground level on which the Mobile Home is positioned , a guard or method of enclosing the chimney shall be ﬁ tted at the point of exit for a height up to 7ft. (2130mm).

6. The chimney shall be attached directly to the

room heater and shall extend at least 3 ft. (914mm) above the part of the roof through which it passes. The top of the chimney should project at least 2ft. (610mm) above the highest elevation of any part of the Mobile Home within 10 ft. (3048mm) of the chimney.

7. The chimney system shall comply with Local

Requirements.

1. Identify the position of the outside air damper by the orientation of the metal handle that rests outside

the galvanized pipe. The metal handle and the damper disc are in line with each other. This means that if the metal handle is in a horizontal position, the damper is ﬂ at and fully open.

2. Open the damper fully whenever you start a ﬁ re. This will allow the outside air to be drawn in the

pedestal base eliminating any potential smoke escaping the stove and entering the room. (Negative air pressure)

8. Any openings in a chimney guard where

required must not permit the entrance of 3/4" (19mm) diameter rod.

9. CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME ROOF, FLOOR, WALLS AND CEILING MUST BE MAINTAINED.

10. Check any other local building code as other

local codes may apply.

11. WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING

ROOM OF A MOBILE HOME.

12. Use silicone to create an effective vapour

barrier at the location where the chimney or other component penetrates to the exterior of the structure.

OPTIONAL OUTSIDE AIR KIT

The Outside Air Kit is an option for Freestanding Stoves. Outside air for combustion can be brought in either through the bottom of the pedestal or bottom heat shield or through the rear plate of the pedestal.

For both bottom and rear outside air the Pedestal Cover Plate must be installed. Loosen the 4 screws on the rear of the pedestal and slide the cover plate over them. Slide the plate to the left to center it and tighten down the 4 screws.

Damper Installation

NOTE: The damper cannot be installed if attaching outside air to the

bottom of the appliance.

Supplied damper allows the combustion air to be closed off when unit is not in operation.

Install the damper within the round pipe in an easily accessible location.

1. Drill a 5/16" hole in the desired location.

2. Insert damper with threaded section out.

3. Install damper handle and secure with wing nut.

Outside Air Through Pedestal Rear

Remove the blanking plate from the rear of the pedestal and bend the two tabs out 90 degrees. Pipe fresh air into the pedestal area by using a minimum 4" metallic duct pipe with a mesh grill at the outside termination.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

With your unit now correctly installed and safety inspected by your local authority, you are now ready to start a ﬁ re. Before establishing your ﬁ rst ﬁ re, it is important that you fully understand the operation of your Catalytic combustor and draft control.

WARNING Fireplace Stoves equipped with doors should be operated only with doors fully closed. If doors are left partly open, gas and ﬂ ame may be drawn out of the ﬁ replace stove opening, creating risks from both ﬁ re and smoke.

DRAFT CONTROL

Both the primary and air wash drafts are controlled by the control slide located on the front left side of the unit (when facing the unit). To increase your draft

- slide to the left to open, and to decrease - slide to the right closed. The F5100 unit has a secondary draft system that continually allows combustion air to the induction ports at the top of the ﬁ rebox, just in front of the catalytic combustor.

Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may damage the catalytic combustor. Inadequate draft may cause back pufﬁ ng into the room and plugging of the chimney or catalyst.

Catalyst Bypass Control

WARNING: To build a ﬁ re in ignorance or to disregard the information contained in this section can cause serious permanent damage to the unit and void your warranty!!

F5100 Regency Freestanding Woodstove

FIRST FIRE

When your installation is completed and inspected you are ready for your ﬁ rst ﬁ re.

THIS UNIT IS DESIGNED TO BURN SEASONED CORDWOOD ONLY. COAL AND BRIQUETTES ARE NOT APPROVED.

1. Open the catalytic by-pass control fully.

(Handle facing forward)

2. Open ﬁ rebox door and build a small ﬁ re using

paper and dry kindling on the ﬁ rebrick hearth, DO NOT USE A GRATE Secure door on the ﬁ rebox and wait a few minutes for a good updraft in the ﬂ ue to establish the ﬁ re. (Leaving the door slightly open will help your ﬁ re start more rapidly.)

CAUTION: Never leave unit unattended

if door is left open. This procedure is for ﬁ re start-up only, as unit may overheat if door is left open for too long.

3. With the catalytic by-pass damper still in the

fully open position, add two or three seasoned logs to your ﬁ re. Form a trench in the ash bed to allow air to reach the rear of the ﬁ rebox prior to closing the door.

4. The temperature in the stove and the gases

entering the combustor must reach between 500F - 700F for catalytic activity to start. From the start up of a cold stove, a medium to high ﬁ ring rate must be maintained for 30min. This ensures that the stove, catalyst and fuel are all stabilized at proper operating temperatures. Even though it is possible to have temperatures at 600F within minutes after a ﬁ re has been started, if the ﬁ re is allowed to die down immediately it may go out or the combustor may stop working. Once the combustor starts working, heat generated in it by burning the smoke will keep it working. During re-fueling and rekindling of the cool ﬁ re, or a ﬁ re that has burned down to the charcoal phase, operate the stove at a medium to high ﬁ ring rate for about 10 minutes to ensure that the catalyst reaches operating temperatures

WARNING: Never build a roaring ﬁ re

in a cold stove. Always warm your stove up slowly!

5. When re-fueling, always open by-pass, load

fuel, then wait for at least 10-15 minutes before closing the by-pass. Reason for the 10-15 min. is the fresh fuel and the opening of the door will cause the catalyst to drop in temperature as well as the moisture within the wood which is the ﬁ rst thing to be released.

6. During the ﬁ rst few ﬁ res, keep the combustion

rate at a moderate level and avoid a large ﬁ re. Only after 5 or 6 such ﬁ res can you operate the stove at its maximum setting, and only after the metal has been warmed.

7. For the ﬁ rst few days, the stove will give off an

odour from the paint. This is to be expected as the high temperature paint becomes seasoned. Windows and/or doors should be left open to provide adequate ventilation while this temporary condition exists. Burning the stove at a very high temperature the ﬁ rst few times may damage the paint. Burn ﬁ res at a moderate level the ﬁ rst few days.

8. Do not place anything on the stove top during

the curing process. This may result in damage to your paint ﬁ nish.

9. During the ﬁ rst few days it may be more difﬁ cult

to start the ﬁ re. As you dry out your ﬁ rebrick and your masonry ﬂ ue, your draft will increase.

10. For those units installed at higher elevations or

into sub-standard masonry ﬁ replaces, drafting problems may occur. Consult an experienced dealer or mason on methods of increasing your draft.

11. Some cracking and popping noises may be

experienced during the heating up process. These noises will be minimal when your unit reaches temperature.

12. Before opening your door to reload, open the

by-pass damper fully for approximately 10 to 15 seconds until the ﬁ re has been re-established. This will minimize any smoking (spilling) back into the room. After loading wood and front door closed, close the by-pass damper

13. All fuel burning appliances consume oxygen

during operation. It is important that you supply a source of fresh air to your unit while burning. A slightly opened window is sufﬁ cient for the purpose. If you also have a ﬁ replace in your home, a downdraft may be created by your Regency Stove causing a draft down your chimney. If this occurs, slightly open a window near your unit.

CAUTION: If the body of your unit, e or any part of the chimney connector starts to glow, you are over ﬁ ring. Stop loading fuel immediately and close the draft control until the glow has completely subsided.

14. Green or wet wood is not recommended for

your unit. If you must add wet or green fuel, open the draft control fully until all moisture has been dispersed by the intense ﬁ re. Once all moisture has been removed, the draft control may be adjusted to maintain the ﬁ re.

15. If you have been burning your stove on a low

draft, use caution when opening the door. After opening the damper, open the door a crack, and allow the ﬁ re to adjust before fully opening the door.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

16. The controls of your unit or the air supply pas-

sages should not be altered to increase ﬁ ring for any reason.

17. If you burn the unit too slowly or at too low a set-

ting your unit will not be operating as efﬁ ciently as it can. An easy rule of thumb says that if your glass is clean, catalytic thermostat is active, then your ﬂ ue is clean and your exhaust is clean. Burn the stove hot enough to keep your glass clean and catalytic combustor ,you won't need to clean your ﬂ ue as often.

FAN OPERATION

Automatic

To operate the fan automatically, push the bottom switch on the side of the fan housing to "AUTO" and the top switch to either "HIGH" or "LOW" for fan speed.

This will allow the fan to turn on as the stove has come up to operating temperature. It will also shut the fan system off after the ﬁ re has gone out and the unit cooled to below a useful heat output range.

Route power cord to either left or right behind unit.

Manual

To manually operate the fan system push the bottom switch to "MAN" and the top switch to either "HIGH" or "LOW". This will bypass the sensing device and allow full control of the fan.

Switching from "AUTO" to "MAN" or "HIGH" to "LOW" may be done anytime.

ASH DISPOSAL

During constant use, ashes should be removed every few days. The Ash Drawer option features a convenient ash dump for easy removal of ash, refer to Modular Installation Options section.

Safety Precautions

1. Do not allow ashes to build up to the loading

doors! Only remove ashes when the ﬁ re has died down. Even then, expect to ﬁ nd a few hot embers.

2. Please take care to prevent the build-up of ash

around the start-up air housing located inside the stove box, under the loading door lip.

3. Never start a ﬁ re if the ash plug and ash drawer

are not in place. This will cause over ﬁ r ing which can cause excessive warping of the stove. Evidence of over ﬁ ring can void the warranty on your stove.

4. The ﬁ rebricks are brittle and can be damaged

if the plug is replaced carelessly or pieces that are too large are forced through the hole.

Ash Drawer Operating Guideline

1. Only clean ashes out of the stove when the unit

has cooled down. Remove the plug by lifting on the handle using the tool provided. The plug may still be warm, use caution. Push the ashes down the hole into the ash drawer, the large pieces can be left in the ﬁ rebox and

burned during the next ﬁ re or removed through

the door opening.

2. Always leave 1/2 to 1 inch of ash in the bottom

of the ﬁ rebox. This helps in easier starting and a more uniform burn of your ﬁ re. Replace ash plug when ashes have been removed.

3. Pedestal Units: To remove the drawer, lift slightly and slide it

out. When the drawer is completely out, slide the cover plate over the ash drawer and carry away.

HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNI-

TURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE

SKIN BURNS.

4. When emptying the ash drawer, make sure

the ashes are cold. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight ﬁ tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible ﬂ oor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending ﬁ nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed in the ash container.

5. Before putting the ash drawer back into place,

make sure the ash plug is back in place.

Pedestal Units: make sure the cover lid is off.

SAFETY GUIDELINES

AND WARNINGS

DO NOT USE CHEMICALS FOR FLUIDS

TO START FIRE.

1. Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuels,

kerosene, charcoal lighter fuel, or similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a ﬁ re in your heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.

2. Keep the door closed during operation and

maintain all seals in good condition.

3. Do not burn any quantities of paper, garbage, and

never burn ﬂ ammable ﬂ uids such as gasoline, naptha or engine oil in your stove.

4. If you have smoke detectors, prevent smoke

spillage as this may set off a false alarm.

5. Do not overﬁ re heater. If the chimney connector,

ﬂ ue bafﬂ e or the stove top begin to glow, you are over ﬁ ring. Stop adding fuel and close the draft control. Over ﬁ ring can cause extensive damage to your stove including warping and premature steel corrosion. Over ﬁ ring will void your warranty.

6. Do not permit creosote or soot build-up in the

chimney system. Check and clean chimney at regular intervals. Failure to do so can result in a serious chimney ﬁ re.

7. Your Regency stove can be very hot. You may be

seriously burned if you touch the stove while it is operating, keep children, clothing and furniture away. Warn children of the burn hazard.

8. The stove consumes air while operating, provide

adequate ventilation with an air duct or open a window while the stove is in use.

9. Do not connect this unit to a chimney ﬂ ue serving

another appliance.

10. Do not use grates or andirons or other methods

for supporting fuel. Burn directly on the bricks.

11. Open the draft control fully for 10 to 15 seconds

prior to slowly opening the door when refuelling the ﬁ re.

12. Do not connect your unit to any air distribution

duct.

13. This heater is designed to burn natural wood

only. Higher efﬁ ciencies and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.

MAINTENANCE

It is very important to carefully maintain your ﬁ replace stove, including burning seasoned wood and maintaining a clean stove and chimney system. Have the chimney cleaned before the burning season and as necessary during the season, as creosote deposits may build up rapidly. Moving parts of your stove require no lubrication.

THERMOMETER

The catalyst thermometer is only a indication of the ﬂ ue gas temperature as they pass through the catalyst. The thermostat probe that is inserted into the opening, must be cleaned at least once a year. Use 220 sand paper to clean probe.

CREOSOTE

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours combine with moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney ﬂ ue of a slow burning ﬁ re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ﬂ ue lining. When ignited, this creosote can result in an extremely hot ﬁ re.

The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if creosote build up has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney ﬁ re.

WARNING: Things to remember in case of a chimney ﬁ re:

1. Close all draft and damper controls.

2. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

Ways to Prevent and Keep Unit Free

of Creosote

1. Burn stove with the draft control wide open

for about 10-15 minutes every morning during burning season.

2. Burn stove with draft control wide open for about

10 - 15 minutes every time you apply fresh wood. This allows the wood to achieve the charcoal stage faster and burns up any unburned gas vapours which might otherwise be deposited within the system.

4. A small hot ﬁ re is preferable to a large smoul-

dering one that can deposit creosote within the system.

5. The chimney and chimney connector should be

inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine is a creosote buildup has occurred.

6. Have chimney system and unit cleaned by competent chimney sweeps twice a year during the ﬁ rst year of use and at least once a year thereafter or when a signiﬁ cant layer of creosote has accumulated (3 mm/1/8" or more) it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney ﬁ re.

DOOR CATCH

ADJUSTMENT

The door Catch may require adjustment as the door gasket compresses after a few ﬁ res. The door latch compression may require adjustment to renew seal. Removal of the spacer washer, (see page 28), will allow the latch to be moved closer to the door frame, causing a tighter seal. Remove and replace the nuts, washer and spacer as shown on in this manual.

DOOR GASKET

If the door gasket requires replacement 5/8" diameter material must be used. Regency uses a gasket rope 5/8" Medium Density (Part #936-060). A proper high temperature gasket adhesive is required. See your Regency Dealer.

GLASS MAINTENANCE

Your Regency stove is supplied with 5mm Neoceram ceramic glass (Part #943-384/P) that will withstand the highest heat that your unit will produce. In the event that you break your glass by impact, purchase your replacement from an authorized Regency dealer only, and follow our step-by-step instructions for replacement (refer to Glass Replacement section).

Allow the stove to cool down before cleaning the glass, do not clean the glass when it is hot. Cleaning the glass will prevent build up of carbon and allow full view of the ﬁ re. Do not use abrasive cleaners, a damp cloth and glass cleaner is effective.

WOOD STORAGE

Store wood under cover, such as in a shed, or covered with a tarp, plastic, tar paper, sheets of scrap plywood, etc., as uncovered wood can absorb water from rain or snow, delaying the seasoning process.

GLASS REPLACEMENT

Allow the stove to cool before removing or replacing glass. Remove the door from the stove and remove the glass retainer. To avoid injury use caution when removing broken glass. Wear safety gloves. When placing the replacement glass in the door, make sure that the glass gasketing will properly seal your unit. Replace the retainer, it should rest on the gasket not the glass, and tighten securely with a glass clips and screws. Do not wrench down on the glass as this may cause breakage.

Do not use substitute materials. If your glass does break, do not use your unit until it has been replaced.

Do not abuse the door by striking or slamming shut.

3. Only burn seasoned wood! Avoid burning

wet or green wood. Seasoned wood has been dried at least one year.

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR

MAINTENANCE

ACHIEVING AND MAINTAINING CATALYST LIGHT-OFF:

The temperature in the stove and the gases entering the combustor must be raised to between 500F to 700F for catalytic activity to be initiated. During the start up of a cold stove a medium to high ﬁ ring rate must be maintained for about 30 minutes. This ensures that the stove, catalyst and fuel are all stabilized at proper operating temperatures. Even though it is possible to have temperatures at 600F within minutes after a ﬁ re has been started, if the ﬁ re is allowed to die down immediately it may go out or the combustor may stop working. Once the combustor starts working, heat generated in it by burning the smoke will keep it working. During re-fueling and rekindling of the cool ﬁ re, or a ﬁ re that has burned down to the charcoal phase, operate the stove at a medium to high ﬁ ring rate for about 10 minutes to ensure that he catalyst reaches operating temperatures.

There are some obvious signs of trouble that your inspection may reveal. The temperature in the stove and the gases entering the combustor must be raised to between 500F to 700F for catalytic activity to be initiated. During the start up of a cold stove a medium to high ﬁ ring rate must be maintained for about 30 minutes. This ensures that the stove, catalyst and fuel are all stabilized at proper operating temperatures. Even though hit is possible to have temperatures at 600F within minutes after a ﬁ re has been started, if the ﬁ re is allowed to die down immediately it may go out or the combustor may stop working. Once the combustor starts working, heat generated in it by burning the smoke will keep it working. During re-fueling and rekindling of the cool ﬁ re, or a ﬁ re that has burned down to the charcoal phase, operate the stove at a medium to high ﬁ ring rate for about 10 minutes to ensure that he catalyst reaches operating temperatures.

CATALYST MONITORING: It is important to periodically monitor the operation of the catalytic combustor to ensure that it is functioning properly and to determine when it needs to be replaced. A non-functioning combustor will result in a loss of heating efﬁ ciency, and an increase in creosote and emissions. Following is a list of items that should be checked on a periodic basis.

• Combustors should be visually inspected at least three times during the heating season to determine if physical degradation has occurred. Actual removal of the combustor is not recommended unless more detailed inspection is warranted because of decreased performance. If any of these conditions exist, refer to Catalyst trouble shooting section of this owner’s manual.

• A good combustor is designed to withstand approximately 12,000 hours of continuous use. This will translate into ﬁ ve to ten years of use, depending on the length of your heating season and how often you use your stove. Proper maintenance will increase the combustor’s effectiveness and prevent many problems. Inspect your combustor before each heating season, and during the season if your stove’s performance seems to change.

Step 1: Light the stove in accordance with instructions within this

manual.

Step 2: With smoke routed through the catalyst (by-pass closed)

go outside and observe the emissions leaving the chimney.

Step 3: Engage the bypass mechanism and move to by-pass

open position. And again observe the emission leaving the chimney. Signiﬁ cantly more smoke should be seen when the smoke is not routed through the combustor (by-pass open). Be careful not to confuse smoke with steam.

ACHIEVING PROPER DRAFT: Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may damage the catalytic combustor. Inadequate draft may cause back pufﬁ ng into the room and plugging of the chimney or catalyst.

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR CLEANING:

Method #1 A vacuum cleaner may be used, but never use high pressured air to

blow the cells free of any build-up. This can damage the cell walls. Any cell blockage can be removed with the use of a pipe cleaner or a cotton swab as well.

Method #2

Should the combustor’s cells become covered with ﬂ y-ash, use a paintbrush or soft-bristled brush and dust the combustor gently. Never use anything abrasive to clean the combustor.

Method #3

Normally the catalytic combustor requires little or no maintenance, it generates such high temperatures and therefore is basically self-cleaning. However, should the combustor become covered with soot or creosote, it is possible to burn the accumulation off by opening the bypass and building a hot ﬁ re. Once the hot ﬁ re is created, close the bypass halfway and burn for 30 to 60 minutes with the bypass left in this position. Never use cleaning

solvents to clean it.

Check and clean the combustor, if necessary, before each burning season and inspect the ﬂ ue system for any signs of creosote buildup.

A clean ﬂ ue helps prevent chimney ﬂ ue ﬁ res.

• This catalytic heater is equipped with a temperature probe to monitor catalyst operation. Properly functioning combustors typically maintain temperatures in excess of 500F and often reach temperatures in excess of 1000F. If catalyst temperatures are not in within, refer to Catalyst trouble shooting section of this manual.

• You can get an indication of whether the catalyst is working by compar-

ing the amount of smoke leaving the chimney when the smoke is going through the combustor and catalyst light – off has been achieved, to the amount of smoke leaving the chimney when the smoke is not routed (bypass open) through the combustor.

MAINTENANCE

COMBUSTOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL / REPLACEMENT:

The catalytic thermometer on top of the stove should read in the active zone after the stove has been in operation for several hours. If the thermometer's indicator needle does not stay in the active zone, even with a hot ﬁ re, over a period of regular use, the catalyst may need to be cleaned. If this persists it may be necessary to replace it.

If the combustor must be examined or replaced, follow this procedure:

1. Allow the stove to burn out and cool down.

2. Open the door and loosen the two 7/16” bolts -see locations below.

3. Lift ﬂ ame shield slightly upwards in keyhole slot and pull it forward and down.

4. Use a pair of pliers and gently slide out the band at each end. The assembly

will loosen enough that it can be pulled forward, lowered, and pulled out through the door.

NOTE: If also replacing the gasket in the bypass door (see next page), remove the lid of the bypass door while it is accessible and complete steps in Bypass Door Gasket Replacement.

Lid for Bypass Door

TO REPLACE THE COMBUSTOR:

First clean the combustor area and the area around the by-pass,use a vacuum cleaner.

Lift the new combustor into position, with the stainless ﬂ anges on each end facing forward. The combustor should slide easily into position, you may need to pinch down the top center with your ﬁ nger to start, gently push as far to the back of the stove as possible.
