REGENCY® COMBUSTIBLE MANTEL CLEARANCES
Because of the extreme heat this fi replace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Combustible mantel clearances from top of unit are shown in Diagram 1.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with a non-combustible board.
These drawings are to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6 inches)
Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area or higher using the above scale.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is "heat resistant" or the paint may discolour.

FRAMING AND FINISHING
INSTALLATION
1) Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with
the front of the unit. Total facing thickness
can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm)
thick.
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing
Support, and Top Standoffs before unit is
slipped into position. See "Unit Assembly
Prior to Installation" section for assembly
details.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep
(946mm high x 921mm wide x 441mm deep).
NOTE: See next page for important
Barcelona™ Series framing note.

* 'D' is Minimum height to combustible materials
including the Minimum 2-1/2" (64mm) Top
clearance to the Horizontal Vent.
3) 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.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.
Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both fl ex termination or
Simpson Dura-Vent venting.
Note: The unit does not have to be completely
enclosed in a chase. The clearance on
top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so
combustible building materials can
be laid directly on top of the standoffs.
You must maintain clearance from
the vent to combustible materials for
fl ex, see Vent Clearances.
5) Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to
combustible material cannot be maintained,
e.g. front top header.

TRIPOLI ARCH DOOR FRAMING NOTE
When installing the optional Tripoli Arch Door, a non-combustible material 12" (305mm) above the unit and 6" (153mm) on each side must be used. See
diagram 2. For complete framing dimensions - see instructions in this manual.
The Tripoli Arch Door also requires steel stud framing above and on each side of the unit, see diagram 2.

Nailing Strips
UNIT ASSEMBLY
PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION
The T op Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips
and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly
positioned and attached to the top before unit
is slipped into position.
Top Standoff Assembly
The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position
and must be folded into shape and attached.
1) Remove the standoffs from the fi replace top.
2) Take each standoff and bend into the correct
shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the
screw holes in the standoff and the prepunched screw holes on the fi replace top
line up.
3) Attach the standoff securely to the top with
2 screws per standoff (on opposite corners).
Top Facing Support &
Side Nailing Strips
Determine the total thickness of facing material
(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the
fi nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the
unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"
(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
The Top Facing Support can be mounted in 3
different positions depending on the thickness
of the facing material.
Screw
Position
A 1/2" / 13mm
B 7/8" / 22mm
C* 1-1/4" / 32mm
* For "C" screw position the top facing
support is reversed.
1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3
supplied screws into the three pre-punched
screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use
hole positions A, B, or C depending on your
facing depth.
Facing Material
Depth
"C" Screw Position:
For a facing material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm),
the top facing support must be reversed.
2) Fold out the two nailing strips on each side.

VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The P36D-1 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.
Note: These flue 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.
