OPTIONAL
DUCT SYSTEM
KIT #946-556
The HeatWave Air Duct Kit increases the
effectiveness of your fireplace by dispersing
warm air from the fireplace to remote locations
in the same room or other rooms in your home.
Up to two kits may be installed on the fireplace.
Please Note: Only 1 HeatWave kit may be
operated at one time. This includes the internal
blower option as well.
OPTIONAL
HEAT RELEASE
KIT #946-570
The Heat Release Kit expels warm air from the
fireplace to the outside of the building, allowing
the fireplace to be operated with less heat
entering the room. The kit may be used on either
the left or right side.
HEARTH
5) This appliance is Listed for bedroom instal-
lations when used with a Listed Millivolt
Thermostat. Some areas may have further
requirements, check local codes before
installation.
6) The P42 Direct Vent Gas Fireplace is approved for alcove installations, which meet
the clearances listed on this page.
7) We recommend that you plan your installation on paper using exact measurements
for clearances and floor protection before

Regency P42-3 Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
INSTALLATION
CLEARANCES
The clearances listed below are Minimum distances unless otherwise stated:
A major cause of chimney related fires is
failure to maintain required clearances
(air space) to combustible materials. It is
of the greatest importance that this fireplace and vent system be installed only in
accordance with these instructions.
Clearance to Combustibles from:
Back 0" (0mm)
Side 0" (0mm)
Floor 0" (0mm)
Minimum Clearance from Louver to:
Mantel min. 7" (177mm)
Ceiling 36" (914mm) from top
of louvers
Side Wall 6" (152mm)
Vent 1-1/2" (38mm) Flex
1-1/4" (32mm) Rigid Pipe
Alcove Clearances:
Max. Depth 36" (914mm)
Min. Width 52" (1321mm)
Min. Height 90" (2286mm)
MANTELS
Because of the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Combustible mantel clearances from louver are shown in the diagram below.
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.
This drawing is to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6 inches)
Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area using the above scale for units with the Flush
Front and with the optional Bay Front.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is "heat resistant"
WARNING
or the paint may discolour.
Fire hazard is an extreme risk
if these clearances are

not adhered to.
Combustible mantel leg clearances as per diagram below:

quirements, check the
HeatWave and Heat
Release manual for details.
Maximum
1-1/2" projection at 2"
minimum clearance.
INSTALLATION
FRAMING AND
FINISHING
1) The facing allows for 1/2" (13mm) of dry-
wall material. The unit may be installed
directly on/or against standard combustible building materials.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening for
the assembled kit is 36-5/8" high x 40-1/4"
wide x 19" deep (930mm H x 1022mm W
x 483mm D). See Diagram 1.
Diagram 1
5) The unit does not have to be completely
enclosed in a chase. The clearance on top
of the unit from the top standoffs is 0" so
combustible building materials can be laid
directly on top of the standoffs. You must
maintain these clearances from the vent to
combustible materials: Flex Termination
clearance 1-1/2" (38mm), Simpson DuraVent clearance or (1-1/4" (32mm). Combustible materials can be laid against the side
and back standoffs and the stove base.
The HeatWave Duct Kit has different
clearance and framing requirements,
check the HeatWave manual for details.
TOP ASSEMBLY &
NAILING STRIPS
The Top Facing Support and Side Nailing Strips
must be correctly positioned and attached before the unit is slipped into position.
1) The top standoffs are shipped installed.
2) The Top Facing Support and the 2 Side
Nailing Strips can be installed at different
depths depending on the width of your
facing. Match the depths of the top facing
support and the side nailing strips.
a) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3
supplied screws into the 3 pre-punched
screw holes on the top front of the unit.
See Diagrams 2 & 3 for the proper
position of the Top Facing Support for
the various material depths.
Diagram 3
Diagram 4
b) Mount the Side Nailing Strip using the 3
supplied screws into the 3 screw holes
or slots (diagram 4) on the side of the unit
and repeat for the other side. Use the hole
for a 1/2" (13mm) thick facing material and
the slot for a range of thickness from 1"
to 1-1/2" (25mm to 38mm).
VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The P42 uses the "balanced flue" 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 con-
nected 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.
Note: 43" (1092mm) is the minimum
height for flex termination and
Simpson Dura-Vent terminations.
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 fireplace itself.)
4) The top louvers must not be closer than 36"
(914mm) to the ceiling.

Diagram 2
VENT RESTRICTOR
A vent restrictor may be required. Check the
diagrams on pages 13 to 18 to determine if the
#6 restrictor is needed for your vent configuration. If required, attach the 2 piece #6 restrictor using 4 screws per piece to the inside top
of the firebox.

INSTALLATION
RIGID PIPE VENTING
Horizontal or Vertical Terminations
The Rigid Pipe Venting System offers a complete line of component parts for installation of both horizontal and vertical installations. Many items are
offered in decorative black, as well as galvanized finish. We recommend using the galvanized finish for installation with the P42.
The minimum components required for a basic
horizontal termination are:
1 Horizontal Termination Cap
190o Elbow
1 Flue Adaptor
1 Wall Thimble
1 Length of pipe to suit wall thickness
(see chart)
Wall thickness is measured from the back
standoffs to the inside mounting surface of
termination cap. 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. Measure the wall
thickness including furring strips.
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.

WARNING:
Do not combine venting components from
different venting systems.
However use of the the AstroCapTM and FPI
Riser is acceptable with all systems.
This product has been evaluated by Intertek for
using a Dura-Vent Flue Adaptor in conjunction
with Selkirk Direct-Temp and Ameri Vent Direct
venting systems. Use of these systems with
the Direct Vent GS starting collar is deemed
acceptable and does not affect the Intertek WHI
listing of components.
