INSTALLATION

READ BEFORE YOU INSTALL

THE REGENCY HIGH

EFFICIENCY EPA CERTIFIED

FIREPLACE

This installation manual will enable you to make a safe, efﬁ cient and dependable installation of your ﬁ replace and chimney system. Please read and understand these instructions before beginning your installation.

Do not alter or modify the ﬁ replace or its components under any circumstances. Any modiﬁ cation or alteration of the ﬁ replace system, including but not limited to the ﬁ replace, chimney components and accessories, may void the warranty, listing and approvals of this system and could result in an unsafe and potentially dangerous installation.

INSTALLATION

PLEASE RETAIN THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

IMPORTANT: Please read and follow these rules for safety.

1) Before starting your ﬁ replace installation,

read these installation instructions carefully to be sure you understand them in their entirety. Failure to follow them could cause a ﬁ replace malfunction resulting in serious injury and/or property damage.

2) Always check with your local building

department, fire department and local authorities prior to installation to determine the need to obtain a permit.

3) This model ﬁ replace must be installed with

one of the chimney systems listed in the Chimney Section in this manual. These systems are intended for use as a residential type appliance. The chimney must always vent to the outside of the building.

4) WARNING: THIS FIREPLACE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED WITH AN UNVENTED GAS LOG SET. TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY, DO NOT INSTALL AN UNVENTED GAS LOG SET INTO THE FIREPLACE.

5) To ensure a safe ﬁ replace system and to

prevent the build-up of soot and creosote, inspect and clean the ﬁ replace and chimney prior to use and periodically during the heating season.

6) Use solid fuel only. DO NOT use artiﬁ cial logs

containing petroleum products, chemical chimney cleaners, gas logs, gas lighters, salt contaminated wood or ﬂ ame colorants in your ﬁ replace. When using compressed sawdust logs use only at 1/3 capacity since these get very hot and expand.

7) DO NOT use charcoal or coal under any

circumstances.

8) NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern

fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter ﬂ uid, or any liquid to start or “freshen up” a ﬁ re in this ﬁ replace. Keep any ﬂ ammable liquid a safe distance from the ﬁ replace.

9) 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.

10) WARNING: Only operate ﬁ replace with doors fully open when optional ﬁ re screen is used.

11) NEVER leave children unattended when

there is a ﬁ re burning in the ﬁ replace.

12) Allow the ﬁ replace to cool before servicing. Always shut-off any electricity to the ﬁ replace while working on it. This will prevent any possible electrical shock.

13) Regency is not responsible for any smoking or related problems that may result from the lack of adequate combustion air. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that adequate combustion air has been provided for the ﬁ replace.

Emissions from burning wood or gas could contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

14) FPI Fireplace Products International Ltd.

does not warranty “smoke-free” operation nor are we responsible for inadequate system draft caused by mechanical systems, general construction conditions, inadequate chimney heights, adverse wind conditions and/or unusual environmental factors or conditions beyond our control.

15) IMPORTANT: Check with your local building

department as to the requirements of sealing any penetrations to the exterior. This will ensure that the integrity of the building is intact.

16) DO NOT use a ﬁ replace insert or any other

product not speciﬁ ed by Regency for use with this ﬁ replace.

17) NEVER, under any circumstances, install

a ﬁ replace, chimney component or any accessories, supplied by Regency, that have visible or suspected physical damage as a result of handling or transportation. These items should be inspected by a Regency dealer or qualiﬁ ed factory representative to ensure safe condition. When in doubt, consult your Regency dealer.

18) It is recommended that power is supplied

to the terminal block of the unit to allow for the installation of blower components now or at a future date.

INSTALLATION

CLEARANCES AND HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS

The FP90 may be placed on or near construction materials. The combustion air kit, ﬁ re stop spacer and roof ﬂ ashings (not chase ﬂ ashings) may be placed directly on or against normal construction materials. The chimney requires a minimum 2" (51mm) clearance. A combustible mantle (to a depth of 10", 254mm) may be installed no closer than 18" (457mm) above the warm air vent or 55-1/2" (1410mm) from bottom of unit.

The chimney must be enclosed when installed in or passing through a living area where combustible material or people may come in contact with it. This is important to prevent possible personal injury or ﬁ re hazard.

For any further information, please call your

INSTALLATION

dealer. Special restrictions apply to the front and facing of the ﬁ replace and nearby walls.

WARNING: If insulation is used, do not place the unit against it. Insulation or vapor barriers, if used, must be secured to assure insulation and vapor barriers remain in place and do not affect the required air spaces.

No Combustibles on Face of Unit.

Combustibles May Not Extend to Unit Face.

ENCLOSURE FRAMING

As per the diagram, the framing of the main enclosure should not infringe on the area above the ﬁ replace to the ceiling level. The rear and side walls as well as the face above the ﬁ replace must not extend into the area above the unit. The only structure allowed above the unit is on the stand-offs at the front of the unit supporting the header.

The enclosure walls can be framed using any suitable material (2x4 - 2x6 studs, plywood, gyproc, etc.), Normally, framing will be set

back to allow Non-Combustible Material to be ﬂ ush with the front of the ﬁ replace.

50-3/4"

44"

(1118mm)

Framing Speciﬁ cations

(1289mm)

There is framing only on the front of the unit. When framing in the header (directly above the ﬁ replace) DO NOT bring any combustible material lower than the top of the stand-offs. Framing header may be positioned on end directly on top of the front ﬁ replace stand-offs. Be sure to seal the space between the ﬁ replace and the enclosure above and on either side of the unit with Wonderboard, Durock or other similar non-combustible sheeting to prevent hot air from entering the enclosure.

CAUTION: ONLY NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL LIKE EXPANDED METAL OR CONCRETE BOARDS SUCH AS WONDERBOARD AND DUROCK, ETC. MAY BE USED IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE UNIT AND THE FRAMING IN FRONT OF THE UNIT ONLY.

Note: If the ﬁ replace is being cantilevered

through an outside wall, the entire enclosure (floor, wall and false ceiling) up to the ﬁ rst ceiling level must be completely insulated and vapor sealed and sheathed, to avoid transfer of cold air through the ﬁ replace when not in use.

INSTALLATION

Left Nailing Strip

NOTE:

Nailing Strips are adjustable to allow for correct offset from the front of the ﬁ replace for your current application.

There are two adjustments to allow for maximum offset (1" , 25mm recessed from front of ﬁ replace or 1.25", 32mm extending past front of ﬁ replace). The Nailing Strip Spacers can be adjusted by loosening the two screws securing them to the Nailing Strips. The Nailing Strips can also be moved forward and back by adjusting the screws that mount them to the ﬁ replace.

HEARTH EXTENSION

NOTE: Hearth must have 1/2" (13mm) Millboard

under ﬁ nish material with minimum "k" factor of 20.07. When unit is raised 4" (102mm), the thermal ﬂ oor protection is not required. If you plan to raise the ﬁ replace and hearth extension, build the platform assembly then position ﬁ replace and hearth extension on top. If you are not raising the unit, check that you will have sufﬁ cient clearance under the bottom louver for your ﬁ nishing material on top of the hearth extension, i.e. tiles, concrete board, etc.

1) Insert the metal safety strip, packaged

with the ﬁ replace beneath the ﬁ replace as illustrated in Diagram 1 below. The safety strip should be tacked down to prevent possible shifting and should overlap for continual coverage of the ﬂ oor.

Note: A safety strip is not required when the

ﬁ replace rests on a non-combustible surface.

Note: Install the hearth extension only as

illustrated.

The safety strip should extend 2 in. (51 mm)

in front and on the sides of the ﬁ replace. In the event a wooden support is used to elevate the ﬁ replace above the ﬂ oor, a “Z” type safety strip should be fabricated from 20 gauge galvanized sheet steel and used to protect the front surface of the wood support as well as the ﬂ oor beneath the hearth extension.

Note: The “Z” type safety strip is not

supplied by Regency and must be fabricated locally.

How To Determine

If Alternate Floor

Protection Materials Are

Acceptable

The speciﬁ ed ﬂ oor protector should be 1/2” (13mm) thick material with a k-factor of 20.07.

The proposed alternative is 4” (102mm) brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8” (3mm) mineral board with a k-factor of 0.29.

Step (a): Use formula above to convert speciﬁ cation to R-value. R = 1/k x T = 1/0.84 x .75 = 0.893.

Step (b): Calculate R of proposed system. 4” brick of C = 1.25, therefore Rbrick = 1/C = 1/1.25 = 0.80 1/8” mineral board of k = 0.29, therefore Rmin.bd. = 1/0.29 x

0.125 = 0.431 Total R = Rbrick + Rmineral board = 0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231.

Step (c): Compare proposed system R of

1.231 to speciﬁ ed R of 0.893. Since proposed system R is greater than required, the system is acceptable.

INSTALLATION

CHIMNEY SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS

Regency’s FP90 Fireplace is to be installed with one of the following Chimney Systems only. Chimney systems only 7" (178mm) or 8" (203mm) diameter are to be used.

In Canada

Any of the following ULCS 629 listed chimney systems may be used:

1) CF Sentinal

2) SuperPro 2100+

3) SuperVent 2100+

4) Security S-2100+

5) Oliver Macleod HT6000+

6) Dura Plus HTC

7) ICC Excel 2100

Note: 8" (203mm) - 7" (178mm) adapter is mandatory for installation using 7" (178mm) chimney. Anchor plate must be purchased with selected chimney system from Chimney Supplier.

The use of only one of these systems is permitted when installing the ﬁ replace. Do not alter or mix parts from other systems as this may cause a potential hazard and void Regency’s limited warranty.

Chimney Height

The total height of your chimney system from the top of the ﬁ replace to the chimney cap must not exceed 40'(12m), and must also meet minimum system height requirements. Please refer to the ﬂ ue manufacturer's instructions for speciﬁ c details. Refer to Minimum Recommended Flue Height section.

Chase Enclosure

Note: Insulation does not come in contact

with Chimney. Maintain a 2" (51mm)

A chase is a vertical box-like structure

clearance.

constructed to surround the ﬁ replace and chimney. A ventilated chase cap is highly recommended. Refer to ﬂ ue manufacturer's instructions for reduced ﬂ ue heights above chase terminations. As with all chimney installations, avoid overhead obstructions such as trees, power lines, etc.

A chase should be constructed just like any outside wall, insulated and vapor barriered. Please check with local building authorities. In a cold climate, we recommend the base of the chase be insulated between the solid continuous ﬂ oor beneath the ﬁ replace and the chase bottom. If used, the value and amount of chase insulation in a cold climate installation is optional and not required for safety. Insulation is recommended to avoid heat loss.

BEFORE YOU START

Check your inventory list to be sure you have all the necessary parts supplied in good usable condition. Check for any concealed damage. Check the operation of the combustion air damper. When the damper is in the fully closed position, the damper handle should be to the left. When damper is in the fully open position, the damper handle must be in the right position.

x 250 mm), single or double joists, type and thickness of ﬂ oor boards and consult your local building code to determine if you need additional support.

4) Remove door, ﬁ rebox bricks, louvers etc.

Note: Set aside Gold louvers away from

harsh chemicals and away from abrasive materials to avoid damage, e.g. muriatic acid for masonry wash will strip the gold plate. Firebricks are fragile and should be handled with caution.

The ﬁ replace may be installed directly on a combustible ﬂ oor or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. Do not place ﬁ replace on carpeting, vinyl or other soft ﬂ oor coverings. It may, however, be placed on ﬂ at wood, plywood, particle board or other hard surfaces. Be sure the ﬁ replace rests on a solid continuous ﬂ oor or platform for support and to prevent cold air from entering the room from under the ﬁ replace, if against an outside wall.

The ﬁ replace may be positioned and then the framing built around it, or the framing may be constructed and the ﬁ replace positioned into the opening.

The minimum ceiling height is 7ft (2m) from the base of the unit. A suitable non-combustible hearth pad is mandatory in all installations. See Framing Details.

INSTALLING THE

CHIMNEY SYSTEM

Following are a set of general guidelines for installation of the chimney system. The more detailed installation manual supplied with the speciﬁ c chimney system must be followed.

1) Using standard construction framing

techniques, construct the opening for the chimney route up through the ceiling(s) and roof or through an outside chase. Framing must maintain adequate minimum air space clearance at all times.

CAUTION: Allow a minimum 2" (51mm)

chimney air space or as specified by the owner's manual for the chimney, to combustible framing members throughout vertical or offset chimney installation.

2) Attach ﬁ replace adaptor/anchor plate to

the top of the ﬁ replace. It is important that a tight seal be made with this part and the unit’s collar. This must be purchased with the ﬁ replace.

3) Install ﬁ restop, radiation shield, or attic

insulation shield as required at each ﬂ oor penetration. See Table 1 (page 15). Check chimney manufacturer's framing opening sizes to allow for correct clearances. All parts must be listed.

4) The roof ﬂ ashing should be installed making

sure that alignment is correct with openings below.

5) Chimney lengths may now be added until

the required height is reached. A minimum ﬂ ue height of 12ft. (4m) from the top of the unit is mandatory. Please refer to Table 2 for Flue Heights (page 15).

INSTALLATION

FPI FP90 Wood Fireplace 13

INSTALLATION

The performance of your unit is governed to a

very large extent by the chimney system. Too short a chimney can produce poor drafting which in turn can cause difﬁ cult start-up, dirty glass, smoking out door 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 chimney must extend at least 3ft. (0.9m) above its point of penetration of the roof. It must also be at least 2ft. (0.6m) higher than any point of a roof, wall, or building within 10ft. (3m) of it.

6) The raincap and storm collar should now

be fastened to the top of the chimney. Install additional support(s) as indicated by chimney manufacturer's instructions.

INSTALLATION

SPECIAL NOTES:

1) Negative Pressure In The House. When

there is no ﬁ re in your unit there still should be sufﬁ cient draft to draw smoke from a burning piece of paper held under the bafﬂ e. If your installation is correct, smoke will go up the ﬂ ue. If however, there is a problem with your installation, cold air may be coming down the ﬂ ue into the room.

This may be the case if your unit smokes on start-up with the door open, until the unit heats up. To overcome this problem, try closing an upstairs window and open a nearby window to pressurize the house.

Note: the door can be open brieﬂ y to start your ﬁ re but must be closed during regular operation because the unit uses outside air for combustion, not room air.

2) Multiple Terminations. When you install

more than one chimney in the same chase or within the same general area, we suggest that their terminations be separated by at least 16" (410mm) horizontally and 18" (460mm) vertically. This separation is to prevent smoke migrating from one chimney to another.

Offset Chimney Installation

Chimney elbows may be used in the installation of the system. A maximum of four 30 degree elbows are allowed. Offset angles of 30 and 15 degrees are allowed with a maximum of 2 offsets.

1) Install the fireplace and chimney as

described above. When you require an elbow, proceed as follows:

2) Install the elbow. Turn the elbow to the

required direction and fasten it with screws or locking bands depending on ﬂ ue design as speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer.

3) Turn the chimney lengths clockwise to

lock them together, then secure them with screws at each joint or locking bands; see the manufacturers requirements.

4) Use another elbow to return the chimney to

vertical.

5) Install an offset support in the joist at the ceil-

ing. Re-support above each offset; elbows are not designed to carry the weight of the ﬂ ue system.

3) Chimney Maintenance. It is important that

you inspect your chimney regularly and keep it clean. If you note more than 1/8" (3mm) creosote build up in your chimney have it cleaned as per instructions of the chimney manufacturer.

4) Chimney Fires. If you do have a chimney

ﬁ re, refer to the following:

a. Close the fireplace doors and air

damper.

b. Clear family members out of the area.

c. Call the ﬁ re department.

d. Use a dry chemical ﬁ re extinguisher,

baking soda or sand to control the ﬁ re.

Do not use water, it will create a steam explosion.

e. Check for hot embers around the unit

and outside your home; extinguish.

f. Do not use your ﬁ replace again until it has

been inspected by a qualiﬁ ed person.

INSTALLING THE

OUTSIDE AIR KIT

Combustion air is fed to the ﬁ rebox through a connection on the rear lower left side of the unit. A free ﬂ owing supply of air must be available to this opening at all times. Combustion air may be taken from inside the building if the local building code allows, but performance may suffer. Also, it must go through the 6" (152mm) duct to the connection on the left hand side.

Air drawn from the interior of the building will affect the performance of gas or oil furnaces, and exhaust fans and fan driven appliances. This may cause a negative pressure in the house allowing smoke to back into the home.

The preferred source of combustion air is from outside the building. If possible, install the kit on the wind loading side of the building not the leeward or (negative pressure) side.

Note: Do not obtain combustion air from

attic, garage or other enclosed space.

1) Put the supplied insulated air duct to a nearby

exterior wall. Maximum length of duct is 20ft (6.1m). Duct length should be kept to a minimum and as straight as possible. Note: 4 ft. only is supplied with unit. Termination should be in an area with good air ﬂ ow.

2) Ensure that your air source is not close to

automobile exhaust, gas meters or other vents.

3) Cut a 7" (178mm) hole through the wall and

mount the outside air kit.

4) Attach the two ends of the duct (making

sure not to damage the insulating cover) after installing the ﬂ ange on the ﬁ replace side. Duct must be secured by screws or clamp.

1) Remove the screw from the vent hole cover

(vent cover 'A') on top of the unit.

2) Take the connector collar and press and

rotate it into the hole to cut through the insulation layer. Remove the collar and remove insulation from the collar. The screws for the inner cover should be exposed.

3) Remove the screws from the inner cover

(vent cover 'B') and slide it back under the insulation.

4) Extend ﬂ ex vent and pull the insulation

sleeves over the 8” (203mm) diameter ﬂ ex vents. Leave a short section of ﬂ ex vent exposed at each end. On one end insert the collar into the ﬂ ex vent and use a clamp to hold the ﬂ ex vent in place.

5) Use tin snips to cut slits into the rim of the

connector collar. A minimum of four tabs will be required so cut the slits 1” (25mm) (i.e. 1” (25mm) wide tabs) apart around the perimeter of the collar.

6) Install the connecting collar into the top of

the unit until the bead of the collar rests against the top of the inner top of the unit. Reach inside the upper louver opening and use pliers to bend the tabs (minimum

4) out on the connector collar. A hammer may be required to lightly tap the tabs and bend them so that they ﬁ t tightly against the bottom of the inner top. Pull the insulation sleeve down to the top of the unit. Repeat steps 1-6 for the second ﬂ ex vent and collar assembly.

Push the collar through the 8” (203mm) hole in the mounting frame. Use pliers to bend out tabs (minimum 4) to secure the collar to the mounting frame.

9) Pull the insulation sleeve up the ﬂ ex vent

to the back of the mounting frame. The ﬂ ex vent should now be connected to both the unit and the mounting frames securely. Repeat steps 1-8 for the second ﬂ ex vent assembly.

10) Install the block-off plate to the unit. The

block-off plate will cover the upper louver opening of the unit and force the fan air to circulate through the two 8” (203mm) diameter ﬂ ex vents. Put high temperature sealant onto the block-off plate. Mount the block-off plate onto the front of the unit and cover the upper louver opening. Make sure that all exposed holes in the block-off plate are sealed with high temperature sealant.

NOTE:

Make sure the block-off plate is ﬂ ush and fastened tightly to the Regency FP90 Fireplace.

11) The rough opening size for the Chase Vent

Grille is 3” H x 10”W (76mm H x 254mm W).

WARNING:

A chase vent of 30 sq. inches (194 cm MUST be installed in all applications, otherwise serious overheating of the chase may result. Use the chase vent supplied with the FP90 unit only or any equivalent one with the same or less restriction of air ﬂ ow (for U.S. installations only).

12) Recheck all ﬂ ex vent-work connections to

make sure that they are secure. Install wall sheathing and cut-out openings for the chase ventilation, and hot air discharge outlets.

13) Install the Chase Vent Grille and install

the Discharge Vent Grilles for the hot air outlets.

NOTE:

There must be a minimum of 5" (127mm) between the gravity air vents.

FINISHING THE

REGENCY FP90

Completing The Facing

Facing materials must be thin veneer (non-self supporting facades) or self supporting facades. If you are installing a thin veneer facade the Regency Masonry Retainer Kit is recommended. All facades must be Non-Combustible such as brick, rock or ceramic tile. See Clearance to Combustible diagram at the beginning of this manual to determine the extent to which you must use non-combustible materials. Gypsum wallboard is not non-combustible.

Non-self Supporting, Thin Veneer

Facades Installation

1) Install heavy expanded metal only on the

top half of the ﬁ replace using a drill to predrill holes and install using tap screws at locations as indicated on kit.

2) Install metal edging of kit on each side of

the doors making sure the edges ﬁ t nicely with the arch edge above.

3) Cover the rest of the area with wire mesh

or metal lath, overlapping around the heavy expanded metal. Make sure nails or staples used for fastening mesh penetrate studs at least 1" (25mm).

4) Mortar must be "thin set" or "thin bed" type

inherently polymer modiﬁ ed. If not modiﬁ ed, you should add a synthetic latex additive.

)

Mix to a ﬁ rm, moist consistency. Using a plasterer's or mason's trowel apply mortar 1/2" (13mm) to 3/4" (19mm) thick to prepared surface area. Do not spread more than a workable area so that the mortar will not set up before stone or brick is applied.

Note: Remove the fireplace doors and

louvers and store them in a safe place until all the masonry work is ﬁ nished. Acid from the cleaning operation will permanently damage gold plating.

5) If additional mortar is required, use a grout

bag to ﬁ ll in joints. Care must be taken to avoid smearing on the surface of stone or brick. Accidental smears should be removed only after mortar has become crumbly, using a whisk broom or dry bristle brush. Do not use a wet brush or a wire brush.

6) When mortar joints have become ﬁ rm

(thumb-print dry) they should be pointed up with a wood stick or metal jointing tool.

Depending on the installation, heavier reinforcing wire screen may be required to bridge the stand-off spacer area around the perimeter of the unit. Hold in position with 2 screws while the door arch is centered.

4) Place side metal ﬁ ller strips in between stove

and framing to cover the stand-off space. Fit the strips behind "A" so that they cover the stand-offs, and will prevent mortar from falling through the mesh.

5) Center door arch edge, mark and drill holes.

Note the top of the side pieces meet up with the edges of the center arch. Attach arch edge and bottom of grill edge to unit. The door arch ﬂ oats at each end so that it can be adjusted to match the curve of the door.

INSTALLATION

Remove the wire retainer from the doors, and place the glass in the doors, making sure that the glass gasketing will properly seal your unit. The retainer should be resting on the gasketing not on the glass. Tighten securely, but do not wrench down on the glass as this may cause breakage. Do not substitute materials. If your glass door breaks, do not use your unit until it has been replaced.

SECONDARY AIR TUBE

INSTALLATION

1) Slide air tube into the hole on the left hand

side of the ﬁ rebox as far as it will go. The notch in the air tube should be facing the right hand side of the ﬁ rebox.

2) Slide the air tube back towards the right side

until it locks into place. To lock into position, use a pair of vise grips and tap them with a mallet until the tube locks into place. The air holes should be pointing down toward the primary air opening just inside the bottom of the door opening. The air tube will be difﬁ cult to snap into place because it has to be a snug ﬁ t in order to prevent it from falling out when a ﬁ re is burning.

ASH DRAWER KIT

OPTION

During constant use, ashes should be removed every few days. The Ash Drawer Kit option provides a convenient and easy way to keep your wood stove clean. This ash drawer kit can only be used with the ﬁ replace unit.

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) 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.

4) Never start a ﬁ re if the ash plug and ash

drawer are not in place. This will cause over ﬁ ring which can cause excessive warping of the stove. Over ﬁ ring will void the warranty on your stove, and damage your ﬁ replace.

5) 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 Kit Installation

1) Remove the bricks from the ﬂ oor of the

ﬁ r e b o x .

2) Open the louver in front of the ﬁ replace.

3) Remove the ash dump cover plates (one

inside the ﬁ rebox and one on the underside of the ﬁ rebox) by removing the two nuts and bolts holding the 2 plates together from underneath the stove.

4) Push the ash plug into the hole inside the

ﬁ rebox and replace all the bricks.

Ash Drawer Operating Guideline

1) Only clean ashes out of the ﬁ replace 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 r e .

3) 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.

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.

INSTALLATION

5) Slide the ash drawer shelf into clips on the

bottom of the ﬁ rebox and add thumbscrews to secure in place.

6) Slide the ash drawer into the ash drawer

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

Draft Control

Both the primary and air wash drafts are controlled by the control rod located behind the bottom louver. To increase your draft, pull to the right for open, to decrease push to the left for closed.

WARNING: Do not build the ﬁ re too close to the glass.

FIRST FIRE

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

1) Open draft control fully to the right to open.

2) Open ﬁ rebox doors and build a small ﬁ re

using paper and dry kindling. Secure doors on the ﬁ rebox and wait a few minutes for a good updraft in the ﬂ ue to establish the ﬁ re. Leaving the doors slightly open will help your ﬁ re start more rapidly and keep glass clean. Add more kindling to establish a hot coal bed before adding larger cordwood.

OPERATION

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

3) With the draft 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 doors.

4) During the ﬁ rst few days it may be more difﬁ cult to start the ﬁ re. As you dry out your ﬁ rebrick, your draft will increase.

Due to the large quantity of ﬁ rebrick, which has a high water content, it may take many ﬁ res (20 or more) to thoroughly cure the ﬁ rebrick. The ﬁ rebrick will become lighter in colour as it dries out.

5) After about 15 to 20 minutes, when your wood has begun to burn strongly, adjust your draft control down to keep the ﬁ re at a moderate level.

WARNING: Never build a roaring ﬁ re in

a cold stove. Always warm your stove up slowly!

6) Once a bed of coals has been established, you

may adjust the draft control to a low setting to operate the unit at its most efﬁ cient mode.

7) For the ﬁ rst few days, the stove will give

off an odour from the paint and oil burn off. 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) For those units installed at higher elevations

drafting problems may occur. Consult an experienced dealer on methods of increasing your draft. Follow the Flue Height Chart (Table 2, page 15).

9) Some cracking and popping noises may be

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

10) Before opening your door to reload, open

draft fully for approximately 10 to 15 seconds until ﬁ re has been re-established. This will minimize any smoking.

11) All fuel burning appliances consume oxygen

during operation. It is important that you supply a source of fresh air to your unit while burning. Air drawn from the interior of the building will affect the performance of gas or oil furnaces, and exhaust fans and fan driven appliances. This may cause a negative pressure in the house allowing smoke to back into the home. The preferred source of combustion air is from outside the building. If possible, install the kit on the wind loading side of the building not the leeward or (negative pressure) side.

12) Green or wet wood is not recommended

for your unit since most of the energy will be used to drive off the moisture instead of heating your home. As well, green or wet wood can result in dirty glass.

13) Always maintain clean glass. Clean glass

means a clean ﬂ ue; if you are experiencing dirty glass you may be operating a ﬁ re that is set too low. Ask your dealer for details.

14) Keep your spark arrester on the ﬂ ue clean. It

should be checked and maintained regularly, at least monthly.

SAFETY GUIDELINES

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 ﬁ replace. Keep all such liquids well away from the unit while in use.

2) Keep the doors closed during operation. Doors can be fully open during operation when optional ﬁ re screen door is used. Maintain all seals in good condition.

3) Do not burn large quantities of paper in your

ﬁ replace.

4) If you have smoke detectors, prevent smoke spillage as this may set off a false alarm.

5) Do not overﬁ re ﬁ replace. If overﬁ ring takes place, stop adding fuel and close the draft control. Overﬁ ring can cause extensive damage to your unit including warpage and premature steel corrosion. Overﬁ 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.

7) The ﬁ replace face can be very hot. You may be seriously burned if you touch the unit while in operation. Warn children of the burn hazard.

8) Do not connect this unit to a chimney ﬂ ue serving another appliance.

9) Do not use grates or andirons or other methods for supporting fuel. Burn directly on the bricks.

10) When re-fuelling the ﬁ re turn off blowers, open draft prior to slowly opening the door. Failure to do so could result in smoke spillage.

11) Your unit should burn dry, standard ﬁ rewood only. The use of “mill ends” is discouraged as this fuel can easily overheat your ﬁ replace. Evidence of excessive overheating will void your warranty. As well, a large portion of sawmill waste is chemically treated lumber, which is illegal to burn in many areas. Salt drift wood, chemically treated ﬁ re logs and pressure treated woods, green or wet wood, must not be burned in your woodstoves.

12) Do not store any fuel closer than 3 feet from your unit.

13) Clearances from front of the ﬁ replace to combustible materials is 36" (i.e. from a sofa, table, etc.).

14) IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the convection louvers at any time. Blocking air into this area will cause excessively high ﬁ rebox temperatures and a potentially dangerous situation.

15) Creosote: Formation and need for removal. When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors 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 makes an extremely hot ﬁ re. The chimney shall be inspected at least twice a year during the heating season to determine when a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it shall be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney ﬁ re.

FPI FP90 Wood Fireplace34

MAINTENANCE

PLATED FINISHES

The optional plated ﬁ nishes on the louvers and surrounds requires little maintenance and needs only to be cleaned with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasive materials or chemical cleaners, as they may harm the ﬁ nish and void the warranty. Keep doors and louvers off during construction to avoid damage.

DOOR GASKET

If the door gasket requires replacement, you must use 5/8" (16mm) diameter oval, medium density material, 34" (864mm) long for each side. A proper high temperature gasket adhesive is required. Contact your dealer for the Regency Gasket Repair Kit.

DOOR HINGES

Grease door hinges with high temperature grease regularly for smooth operation and to avoid squeaks.

GLASS CLEANING

Only clean your glass window when it is cool. Your local retailer can supply you with a recommended glass cleaner if plain water and a soft cloth does not remove all deposits. Do not use oven cleaner on the glass as it will etch the glass.

Do not use any type of abrasive cleaner to clean glass.

GLASS REMOVAL /

REPLACEMENT

Allow the stove to cool before removing or replacing glass. Remove the door from the ﬁ replace and remove the glass retainer. Use caution when removing broken glass to avoid injury. When placing the replacement glass in the door, make sure that the glass gasketing will properly seal your unit. Replace the retainer and tighten securely, but do not wrench down on the glass as this may cause breakage. Do not substitute materials. If your glass door breaks, do not use your unit until it has been replaced.

CHIMNEY CLEANING

Do not permit any creosote or soot build-up in the chimney system. If you detect any build-up contact a qualiﬁ ed chimney sweep or clean it yourself. Perform the following steps:

a. Remove the ﬁ rst secondary air tube and

bafﬂ es.

b. Remove the termination cap by removing

the screws and lifting.

c. Make sure ﬁ replace doors are shut to

prevent soot and dirt from entering the loom.

d. Clean chimney with either nylon or steel

brush.

e. Replace chimney cap.

f. Re-install baffles and secondary

tubes.
