1. There are 8 (eight) side nailing strips and one top nailing strip available on the unit. One set of four (4) are for a clean fi nish installation, the other set are
for a tile fi nish installation as they are set back 1/2" (13mm). The top nailing strip is adjustable to 1/2" (13mm).
2. Bend the required four (4) nailing strips to 90º.
3. Attach top nailing strip with one (1) screw (located at the back of the nailing strip). Adjust to required position, flush or back 1/2" and tighten screw.

1. Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2. For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house; apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes.
(Do not insulate the fi replace itself.)
WARNING: Failure to insulate and add vapor barriers to the inside of the exterior wall will result in operational and performance problems
including, but not limited to: excessive condensation on glass doors, poor fl ame package, carbon, blue fl ames etc. These are not product
related issues.
3. The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. You must maintain clearances from the vent to combustible materials: See "Clearances"
section. Combustible materials can be laid against the side and back standoffs and the stove base.
4. Tile Finish Option 1: Drywall may be installed onto the unit as shown below to create a surface to apply fi nishing materials such as tile, slate, etc.
Drywall cannot extend beyond the metal surface of the unit.
5. Tile Finish Option 2: If applying a non-combustible fi nishing material (tile,slate,etc) the material can be installed directly onto the metal surface (clean
front) of the unit in the area shown below.

7. Non-combustible material (ie. tile, slate, etc.) may be brought up to the edge of the glass door of the unit. Minimum clearances must be adhered to, this
will assure ease of glass door removal and access to the lower panel.

Regency HZ33CE Gas Fireplace
INSTALLATION
VENTING INTRODUCTION
The HZ33CE uses the "balanced fl ue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer
liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing
warm room air up the chimney.
There are 5 vent systems approved for use with the HZ33CE: the Regency® Direct Vent Flex System for Horizontal Terminations only and the
Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct-Temp, Amerivent Direct Vent and Security Secure Vent Systems for Horizontal and Vertical Terminations (see
following "Venting" Sections for more details).
Note: These fl ue pipes must not be connected to any other appliance.
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate
solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.
(See "Rigid Pipe Venting System" for more details and exceptions).
NOTE: Ensure compliance with the outside vent terminal location before cutting hole as both dimensions must be met.

REGENCY® DIRECT VENT FLEX SYSTEM
Horizontal Terminations Only
This venting system, in combination with the HZ33CE-4 Direct Vent Gas Fireplace, have been tested and listed as a direct vent heater system by Warnock Hersey.
The location of the termination cap must conform to the requirements in the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" Section .
Regency® Direct Vent Flex Termination Kit (Part # 946-513. includes all the parts needed to install the HZ33CE with a maximum run of 2 feet. If
installing the HZ33CE-4 with a continuous vent length of more than 2 ft (.6m) to a maximum of 10 ft. (3.0m) use Kit # 946-515 (4 ft) or 946-516 (10 ft) or
see "Rigid Pipe Venting Systems" Section for alternate venting arrangements.

RIGID PIPE VENTING SYSTEMS
Horizontal or Vertical Terminations
The minimum components required for a basic
horizontal termination are:
1 AstroCap Horizontal Termination Cap
1 45o Elbow
1 Rigid Pipe Adaptor
1 Wall Thimble
1 Length of pipe to suit wall thickness
(see chart)
For siding other than vinyl, furring strips may
be used, instead of the vinyl siding standoff, to
create a level surface to mount the vent terminal.
The Terminal must not be recessed into siding.
If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must
be used with vinyl siding), measure to outside
surface of wall without siding and add 2 inches.

Exception: However, use of the the AstroCap
and FPI Riser is acceptable with all systems.
This product has been evaluated by Intertek
for using a Rigid Pipe Adaptor in conjunction
with Duravent Direct-Vent , Selkirk Direct-Temp,
Ameri Vent Direct venting and Security Secure
Vent systems. Use of these systems with the
Rigid Pipe adaptor is deemed acceptable
and does not affect the Intertek WHI listing of
components.
When using Rigid Vent other than
Simpson Dura-Vent, 3 screws must be
used to secure rigid pipe to adaptor.
