INSTALLATION

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT

Air Shutters are required to increase or decrease the amount of air that is
mixed with the fuel before combustion. This will have an affect on how well
the fuel combusts and how the fl ame physically appears.
Low primary air will leave a taller, yellower fl ame while higher primary air will
leave a lower, bluer fl ame.

This setting is largely for appearance, however, not enough primary air may
lead to carboning, sooting or a fl ame that reaches the top of the fi rebox.
Situations that may require more primary air are; units that are burning
propane, units installed at higher elevations or units that are run on high
most of the time.

The L540E / HZI540E is equipped with an air shutter that is accessible from
outside the fi rebox and can be adjusted during operation.

Aeration adjustments should only be made after the unit has been on for 30
minutes to 1 hour.

Slide the Air Shutter Lever towards you to increase the primary air setting.

Slide the Air Shutter away from you to decrease the primary air setting.
Below you will see a chart showing the minimum primary air settings.

These are set from the factory, but due to fuel conversions or installation
conditions, the air setting may need to be adjusted.

Unit Fuel Type Min. Air Setting

STANDING PILOT AND HEAT EXCHANGE RETURN

The L540E / HZI540E use a heat exchanger and effi cient combustion
technology to provide extreme heating effi ciencies. The more effi cient an ap­pliance becomes, the lower the fl ue gas temperatures becomes.
On start-up, fl ue temperatures are required to initiate venting action.

Here are some considerations when setting up the L540E / HZI540E:

1) When operating the unit in temperatures below 50° F, run the pilot in

"Standing Pilot" mode, by setting the Surefi re™ switch to ON.

The switch is located to the bottom left of the Firebox Door.

Move the switch to the right to run in Standing Pilot mode, to the left to

run in Intermittent Pilot (electronic ignition) mode. This will aid in keeping
the fl ue slightly warmer than the outside air, making start up a smoother
process.

INSTALLING THE HEAT EXCHANGER RETURN

1) Remove the left and right side panels. Remove one screw in the upper
left and upper right of the fi rebox as shown below. Once the screws
have been removed, lower the front edge of the exhaust baffl e and pull
towards you. There are 3 screws at the rear of the exhaust baffl e that
help to position the baffl e and keep it straight during operation.

2) If the unit has been previously operated, spray the fasteners with WD-40
and let them sit for a few minutes. Remove the screw that holds the heat
exchange return in place. Insert the Heat Exchanger Return up inside
the head exchanger. Some clearance holes are provided to fi t around
existing fasteners. re-install the screw(s) that will hold the Heat Exchang­er Return in place. Re-install the Exhaust Baffl e and Panels.

2) The "Heat Exchanger Return"may be installed in circumstances where
the maximum effi ciency is desired. This will require that the unit is run in
standing pilot mode only, as the Heat Exchanger return presents

additional restriction to the fl ue system.

The bottom of the brick panel rests on a small sheet metal lip, just above
the air intake at the bottom rear of the Firebox. You will need to hold this
panel in place while you install the right brick panel. Do not let go of the
panel or it may fall forward and be damaged.

4) While holding the rear brick panel in place, slide the right along the side

of the fi rebox toward the rear of the fi rebox. Each side Firebox Liner will
sit upon a Firebox Liner Retainer and the top will be held between the
Exhaust Baffl e and the side of the fi rebox.

INSTALLATION

Before you Start:

Black Enamel Panels

• Black Enamel panels must be inspected for scratches and dimples prior
to installation. All claims to be recorded at this time.
Claims for damage after installation will not receive consideration.

• Black Enamel panels will discolor a little during normal operation. This is
normal and should not be considered a defect.

All hand and fi nger marks MUST be cleaned off with a soft cloth. Use

*

an ammonia based cleaner (ie. glass cleaner) to remove any fi ngerprints
before applying heat to the unit.

Failure to do this will result in burn stains on panels which you will
be unable to remove. Not protected by product warranty.

Sheet metal components may have sharp edges. Please handle with
care. The enamel panels require an insulation panel installed behind
them. Failure to do so may result in an elevated operating temperature
and premature failure of the appliance. The Insulation panels may contain
fi bre glass or ceramic elements. These may become airborne or stick to
carpets and/or clothing. Handle with caution.
The use of work gloves and dust masks is recommended when handling
panels and insulation.

1) Remove fi ller sections from right and left sides of the burner and disc

- see below.

Filler section

2) Using a screw driver, loosen the screws that hold down the Firebox Lin
Retainers (x4). Move the Firebox Liner Retainers toward the center of t
Firebox - see diagram below.

3) Place the insulation panels on the inside of their respective fi rebox line

Have both the rear liner and the right liner within reach of the Firebox.
The rear liner has one long edge with perpendicular lip and one long
edge with a lip angled downward. The angled lip is the top of the panel
The liner sits on a sheet metal ledge at the rear of the fi rebox, just abo
the air inlet near the bottom.

While holding the rear liner in place, slide the fi rebox liner right (and th

corresponding insulation panel) into the right side of the Firebox. The s
liners will sit on the fi rebox liner retainers and fi t at the top in-between t
fi rebox side and the exhaust baffl e. The rear fl ange on the Firebox Lin
Side, sits between the rear liner and the fi rebox side. When the side lin
is properly installed, the front edge should sit just inside the front edge
the fi rebox.

LIGHTING

PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, you
must fi rst remove the glass door.

1) Press and release on ON/OFF button once
on the remote control.

2) After approximately 4 seconds the spark
ignition system will spark for 60 seconds to
light the main burner.

3) The unit will turn on.

Note: The fi rst try for ignition will last approxi-

mately 60 seconds. If there is no fl ame ignition
(rectifi cation) the board will stop sparking for
approximately 35 seconds. After wait time ,
the board will start second try for ignition by
sparking for approximately 60 seconds . If
there is still no positive ignition the board will
go into lock out.

The system will need to be reset as follows:

a) Turn the system off using ON/OFF switch or

press ON/OFF button - if using optional remote.

b) After approximately 2 seconds turn on ON/

OFF switch or press ON/OFF button if using
optional remote.

c) Repeat step 2.

FIRST FIRE

The fi rst fi re in your stove is part of the paint curing
process. 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, 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 panel may require cleaning after the unit
has cooled down.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.

Note: When the glass is cold and the appliance

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.

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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

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. You
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.

Note: The fi rst attempt to ignition will last approximately 60 seconds. If there is no fl ame ignition (rectifi ca­tion) the board will stop sparking for approximately 35 seconds. After this wait time, the board will start a
second try for ignition by sparking for approximately 60 seconds. If there is still no positive ignition after the
second attempt the board will go into lock out.
The system will need to be reset as follows (after going into lock out mode):
a) Wait 5 minutes - turn the system off using ON/OFF switch.
b) After approximately 2 seconds turn on ON/OFF switch or press ON/OFF button if using optional

c) Unit will repeat step 2.

2) Attendre 4 secondes. Le système d’allumage produira des étincelles pendant 60 secondes afi n d’amorcer

3) Les fl ammes s’allumeront.
Remarque : Au premier allumage, le système tente d’allumer les fl ammes pendant 60 secondes. Si l’essai est
infructueux, le système fait une pause de 35 secondes. C’est ce qu'on appelle l'étape de rectifi cation. Ce délai
écoulé, le système tente à nouveau d'allumer les fl ammes en produisant des étincelles pendant 60 secondes.
Si les fl ammes ne s’allument toujours pas, le système se met en mode verrouillage.
Il faut alors le réinitialiser en suivant les étapes ci-dessous (pour le déverrouiller) :
a) Attendre 5 minutes et éteindre l’appareil en réglant l’interrupteur à la position « OFF »;
b) Attendre 2 secondes et rallumer le système à l’aide de l’interrupteur ou de la télécommande.
c) L'unité répétera l'étape 2.

INSTRUCTIONS

1) Always turn the gas valve to off 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 clean soft
paint brush as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.

2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance, door
and louvers with a damp cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaner. The gold louvers (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). Regency
uses StoveBrite 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 a qualifi ed service person.

4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualifi ed 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.

5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other fl ammable vapours and liquids

6) 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.

DOOR GLASS

Your Regency insert is supplied with high
temperature, Neoceram ceramic glass that will
withstand the highest heat that your unit will produce.
If your glass requires cleaning, we recommend
using an approved glass cleaner available at all
authorized dealers. Do not use abrasive materials.
Do not clean the glass when hot.

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.

Warning: Do not operate
appliance with glass panels
removed, cracked or broken.
Replacement of the glass
should be done by a licensed or
qualifi ed service person.

CAUTION & WARNINGS:

* Do not clean when the glass is hot.
* The use of substitute glass will void all product
warranties.
* Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the
glass.
* Do not strike or abuse the glass.
* Do not operate this fi replace without the glass
front or with a cracked or broken glass front.
* Wear gloves when removing damaged or

broken glass.
* Replacement of the glass panel(s) should be
done by a licensed or qualifi ed service person.

In the event that you break your glass by impact,
purchase your replacement from an authorized
Regency® dealer only.
Replacement Neoceram glass (#940-372/P) is
shipped with a gasket.

7) Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed serv­ice technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace nay part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.

GENERAL VENT

MAINTENANCE

Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi­annually. Recommended areas to inspect as follows:

1) Check the Venting 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 Termination Cap, and shine a
fl ashlight down the Vent. 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 consequently
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.

GLASS GASKET

If the glass gasket requires replacement use glass
gasket for the Flush Front (Part # 936-159).
