FLUEING
THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE CONNECTED
TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING A SEP ARA TE
SOLID FUEL BURNING APPLIANCE.
This appliance is designed to attach to a 100
mm diameter twin skin or listed gas fuel type
fl ue liner running the full length of the chimney. A
minimum fl ue height of 1.5 m. is recommended.

its own internal draft diverter, so no additional
external draft diverter is required.
Periodically check that the fl ue is unrestricted
and an adequate draft is present when the unit
is in operation.
Before installing fl ue system ensure that the
damper plate is open and secure to prevent the
damper plate from falling down and crushing
the liner.
Install to AS5601-2004,(Australia) NZS 5261

Combustion and Ventilation Air
WARNING: This appliance needs
fresh air for safe operation and must
be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation
air available to the room in which it
is to be operating.
Air for combustion is drawn in through the front
of the unit, therefore, the front of the unit must
be kept clear of any obstructions.
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 3.45 kPa (14" w.c.).
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 fl 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 specifi ed on the safety
label.
6) When fi nished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8"
fl at screwdriver. Note: Screw should be
snug, but do not over tighten.

LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: Gas on/off knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.
SHUTDOWN
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Turn OFF the fl ame switch.
2) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to
"OFF" position.
FIRST FIRE
The FIRST FIRE is part of the paint curing proc-
ess. To ensure that the paint is properly cured,
it is recommended that you burn your fi replace
for at least four (4) hours the fi rst time you use it
with the fan on. When fi rst operated, the unit will
release an odour caused by the curing of the paint
and the burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing. Smoke detectors in the house
may go off at this time. Open a few windows
to ventilate the room for a couple of hours. The
glass may require cleaning.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS STILL HOT!
Note: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance is lit, it may cause condensation
and fog the glass. This condensation
is normal and will disappear in a few
minutes as the glass heats up.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.
AUTOMATIC
CONVECTION FAN
OPERATION
Set the fan speed on control panel at the top
left side of the unit to adjust to the desired
speed. The fan will turn on as the stove comes
up to operating temperature. After the unit has
been turned off and the unit cooled to below a
useful heat output range the fan will shut off
automatically.
ADJUSTING FLAME
HEIGHT
Your heater has an adjustable fl ame to tailor
the look and heat output to your specifi c needs.
It is adjusted by turning the fl ame adjustment
dial on the gas control valve.
Turn clockwise to adjust the fl ame higher ,
counterclockwise for a lower fl ame.
1) Turn burner OFF using "ON/OFF" switch.
2) Turn gas control knob so indicator points
to "OFF" position and allow 5 minutes for
any gas in the combustion chamber to
escape.
3) Turn gas control knob counterclockwise
so indicator points to the "PILOT" position.
Depress the gas control knob fully. Depress
the igniter button several times until the
pilot lights. After approximately one minute,
release the gas control knob. The pilot fl ame
should continue to burn. If the pilot does not
remain lit, repeat operation allowing a longer
period before releasing gas control knob.
4) When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas knob
further counterclockwise to the "ON" position.
5) Use the ON/OFF switch, wall switch, thermostat or remote control to turn on the unit.
6) Rotate the fl ame height regulator (Hi/Lo) to
adjust the fl ame height higher or lower.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm
may develop on the glass front as part
of the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the fi lm will bake on and
become very diffi cult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.

NORMAL
OPERATING SOUNDS
OF GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are normal operating sounds and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.
Blower:
Regency gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a different gauge material from the rest of the fi rebox
and body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of
steel will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. Y ou should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fi reboxes.
Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the
switch contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot fl ame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.

MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions.
Keep the burner and control compartment
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a
soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile
and easily damaged.
2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appliance, louvres, and door with a damp cloth.
Never use an abrasive cleaner. The gold
louvres (and optional gold door) may be
scratched if abrasives are used to clean
them.
The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refi nished with
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).
This stove uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic
Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating. If
there is a problem, call an authorized service
person.
4) Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection
when servicing controls. Wiring errors can
cause improper and dangerous operation.
5) The appliance and fl uing system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually, by an authorized fi eld service person,
to ensure that the fl ow of combustion and
ventilation air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.
6) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other fl ammable vapours and liquids.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND
ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED
TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH
SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND
SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID
BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE
CAREFULL Y SUPERVISED WHEN
THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM
AS THE APPLIANCE.
DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE
IF ANY P ART HAS BEEN UNDER
WA TER. IMMEDIA TEL Y CALL AN
AUTHORIZED SERVICE TECHNICIAN TO INSPECT THE APPLIANCE AND TO REPLACE ANY
PART OF CONTROL SYSTEM
AND ANY GAS CONTROL WHICH
HAS BEEN UNDER WATER.
CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN
OR GUARD REMOVED FOR
SERVICING AN APPLIANCE
MUST BE REPLACED PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT
BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THE
APPLIANCE.
7) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This
condensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass
heats up.
Never operate the appliance without the
glass properly secured in place or with
the door open.
8) Periodically check the pilot fl ames. Correct
fl ame pattern has three strong blue fl ames: 1
fl owing around the thermopile and 1 around
the thermocouple, and 1 fl owing across the
rear of the burner (it does not have to be
touching the burner).
Note: If you have an incorrect fl ame pat-
tern, contact your Masport dealer for
further instructions.
Top View of pilot fl ame
Incorrect fl ame pattern will have small, probably
yellow fl ames, not coming into proper contact
with the rear of the burner or thermopile.

GENERAL FLUE
MAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the fl uing system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Fluing System for corrosion in areas that are exposed to the elements. These
will appear as rust spots or streaks, and in
extreme cases, holes. These components
should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a fl ashlight down
the Flue. Remove any bird nests, or other
foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive condensation, such as water droplets forming in the
inner liner, and subsequently dripping out the
joints, Continuous condensation can cause
corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may
be caused by having excessive lateral runs,
too many elbows, and exterior portions of the
system being exposed to cold weather.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections
or fi ttings have been disturbed, and conse-
quently loosened. Also check mechanical
supports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers'
tape for rigidity.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door to carefully remove the logs.
The pilot light generates enough heat to burn
someone. If for any reason a log should need
replacement, you must use the proper replacement log. The position of these logs must be as
shown in the diagram under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will alter
the unit’s performance which is not
covered under warranty.
