INSTALLATION
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" or the paint may discol­our.

FRAMING & FINISHING
1) Determine the total thickness of facing material (eg. drywall plus
ceramic tiles) to allow the finished surface to be flush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material. The framed opening for the assembled kit is 47-1/2" high x 48-1/2" wide x 26-1/4" deep (1207mm H x 1232mm W x 667mm D). See Diagram 1.
INSTALLATION
Diagram 1
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 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 clearances from the vent to combus­tible materials: See page 7. 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.
IMPORTANT
When installing the unit with any vertical venting off the top of the unit as shown, the minimum framing depth changes accordingly.

INSTALLATION
UNIT ASSEMBLY
PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION
The Top 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 flat position and must be folded into shape and attached.
1) Remove the standoffs from the fireplace 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 fireplace top line up.
3) Attach the standoff securely to the top with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite cor­ners).
Top Facing Support and
Side Nailing Strips
Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the finished surface to be flush 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 & Side Nailing Strips can be mounted in 3 different positions depend­ing on the thickness of the facing material.
Screw Facing Material Position Depth
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.
"C" Screw Position:
For a facing material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm), the top facing support must be reversed.
2) Use the same screw hole position for the Side Nailing Strips as was used for the Top Facing Support. Attach each side nailing strip using 3 screws.
VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The P48-1 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.

INSTALLATION
HORIZONTAL
INSTALLATIONS
Install the vent system according to the manu­facturer's instructions included with the com­ponents.
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the location of the unit. Rough in the gas preferably on the right side of the unit and the electrical (junction block is on the left side) on the left.
2) Direct Vent pipe and fittings are designed with special twist-lock connections to con­nect the venting system to the appliance flue outlet. A twist-lock appliance adaptor is an available option that must be used in conjunction with the Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent GS system. Install the adaptor after the unit is set in its desired location otherwise the unit will not fit through the
36-5/8" (930mm) high frame opening.
3) Put a bead of silicone inside the outer section of the adapter and a bead of Stove Mate on the inner collar. Slip the adapter over the existing inner and outer flue collar and fasten to the outer collar only with the 3 supplied screws (drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Level the fireplace and fasten it to the framing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
4) Assemble the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the appliance adaptor and twist-lock for a solid connection.
Note:
a) Twist-lock procedure: Four indenta-
tions, located on the female ends of pipes and fittings, are designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings, by orienting the four pipe indentations so they match and slide in to the four entry slots on the male ends. (Diagram 1) Push the pipe sections completely together, then twist-lock one section clockwise ap­proximately one-quarter turn, until the two sections are fully locked. The fe­male locking lugs will not be visible from the outside, on the Black Pipe or fittings.
Diagram 1
They may be located by examining the inside of the female ends.
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner
pipe and high temp silicone seal­ant to outer pipe on every twist­lock joint.
b) Horizontal runs of vent must be sup-
ported every 3 feet (0.9meter). Wall straps are available for this purpose.
5) Mark the wall for a 11" x 11" (279mm x 279mm) square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the center­line of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 11 inch (279mm) square hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated.
If the wall being penetrated is constructed of non-combustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 8" (203mm) diameter hole is acceptable.
Diagram 2
Note:
a) The horizontal run of vent must be level,
or have a 1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot of run towards the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a fire.
b) The location of the horizontal vent ter-
mination on an exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes, and must not be blocked or obstructed. For External Vent Terminal Locations, see diagram on page 11.
6) The arrow on the vent cap should be
pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/4"(32mm)
clearances to combustible materials are maintained (Diagram 5). Install the termina­tion cap.
Diagram 5
The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
7) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent pipe to the vent termination, slide the Wall Thimble (Part # 1247) over the vent pipe.
8) Slide the appliance and vent assembly to­wards the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is impor­tant that the vent pipe extends into the vent cap sufficient distance so as to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches (32mm). Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from the vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws provided to connect the strips to the pipe section. See Diagram 6.
Diagram 6
9) Install wall thimble in the center of the 11" (279mm) square and attach with wood screws (Diagram 7).
20
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding stand­off or furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.

INSTALLATION
VERTICAL
TERMINATION
1) Maintain the 1-1/4"(32mm)
clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when pass­ing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic raft­er, or other nearby combusti­ble surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check pages 16-17 for the maximum vertical rise of the venting system and the maxi­mum horizontal offset limita­tions.
2) Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appli­ance flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at his point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system. You may wish to relo­cate the appliance or to offset, as shown in Diagram 2 to avoid cutting load bearing mem­bers.
Diagram 2
Diagram 1
4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist-locked position and sealed.
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high temp silicone sealant to outer pipe on every twist-lock joint.
5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small
drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles of 1-1/4"(32mm). Slip the flashing under the shingles (shingles should overlap half the flashing) as per Diagram 4.
Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing is installed under the roofing material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed.
This allows for small adjustments.
Diagram 5
Roof Pitch Minimum Vent Height Feet Meters flat to 7/12 2 0.61 over 7/12 to 8/12 2 0.61 over 8/12 to 9/12 2 0.61 over 9/12 to 10/12 2.5 0.76 over 10/12 to 11/12 3.25 0.99 over 11/12 to 12/12 4 1.22 over 12/12 to 14/12 5 1.52 over 14/12 to 16/12 6 1.83 over 16/12 to 18/12 7 2.13 over 18/12 to 20/12 7.5 2.29 over 20/12 to 21/12 8 2.44
A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoin­ing roof lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height may solve the problem.
7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of the flashing to the roof with roofing rails, slide storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic.
8) Install the vertical termination cap by twist­locking it.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces,
which the vent passes through must be enclosed.
Offset Chart
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the
floor or ceiling of every level. To install the Firestop spacer in a flat ceiling or wall, cut a 11 inch (279mm) square hole. Frame the hole as shown in Diagram 3 and install the firestop.
Diagram 3
Regency P48-1 Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace 21
6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic
to avoid obstructions, it is impor­tant to support the vent pipe every 3 feet (0.9 meter), to avoid exces­sive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose (Diagram 2).
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roof­line due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue to add pipe sections through the flashing until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum height requirements specified in Diagram 5 or local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height must be in­creased.

PROCEDURES
for Regency Direct Vent
System (Flex)
1) Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the
gas (preferably on the right side of the unit) and the electrical (Junction block is on the left side) on the left. Locate the centerline of the termination and mark wall according­ly. Cut a 11"(279mm) hole in the wall (inside dimension).
Note: A top clearance of 2-1/2"(64mm)
and side & bottom clearance of 1-1/2"(38mm) must be maintained except that only a 1" (25mm) clear­ance is needed at the termination end. We recommend framing a 11"(279mm) x 11"(279mm) (inside dimensions) hole to give struc­tural rigidity for mounting the ter­mination.
Note: To make the installation more aesthetically pleas­ing, we recom­mend framing out a square to mount the terminal to.
4) Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble
and securely fasten the one with the tabs to the outside wall making sure that the tabs are on top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble half to the inside wall. The thimble halves slip inside each other and can be adjusted for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 walls. The liners
must slip over the collars a minimum of 1-3/8".
5) Slip the assembled liner and termination assembly through the thimble making sure the termination cap faces up (there are markings on the cap that show which way is up). This will position the termination cap with proper down slope for draining water. Fasten the cap to the outer wall with the 4 supplied screws.
6) Pull the centre 5"(127mm) liner and outer 8"(203mm) liner out enough to slip over the flue collars of the fireplace. (You may wish to cut the liner shorter to make it more workable.) Do not bend liner more than 90
7) Apply Mill Pac over the fireplace inner collar and slip the 5"(127mm) liner down over it and attach with 3 supplied screws.
8) Do the same with the 8"(203mm) liner.
9) Apply a bead of silicone between the thim-
ble and termination and around the outer edge of the terminal at the wall in order to keep the water out.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice build­up may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent termination area.

.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, furring strips must be used to ensure that the termi­nation is not recessed into the siding.
2) Level the fireplace and fasten it to the
framing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
3) Assemble the vent assembly by applying Mill Pac to the 5"(127mm) inner collar of the termination and slipping the 5"(127mm) liner over it at least 1-3/8" (35mm). Fasten with the 3 screws (drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Apply Mill Pac or high temper­ature silicone to the 8"(203mm) flex pipe and slip it over the 8" outer collar of the vent terminal at least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with the 3 screws.
NOTE: Horizontal sections must be sup-
ported at intervals not exceeding 3 feet (0.9 meter). (Flame picture and performance will be affected by sags in the liner).

HIGH ELEVATION
This unit is approved in Canada for altitude 0 to 4500 ft. (CAN1 2.17-M91).
For USA installations follow local codes and/or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
When using copper or flex connectors use only approved fittings. Always provide a union so that gas lines can be easily disconnected for servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and flex connectors are usually considered to meet this requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution or gas leak detector. Do not use open flame for leak testing.
PILOT ADJUSTMENT
Periodically check the pilot flames. Cor­rect flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 1 flowing around the thermopile, 1 around the thermocouple and 1 flowing across the burner (it does not have to be touching the burner).
Note: If you have an incorrect flame pat-
tern, contact your Regency dealer for further instructions.
Incorrect flame pattern will have small, probably yellow flames, not coming into proper contact with the rear burner or thermopile or thermocouple.
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 flat 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.
5) The pressure check should be carried out with the unit burning and the setting should be within the limits specified on the safety label.
6) When finished reading manometer, turn off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" flat screwdriver. Note: Screw should be
snug, but do not over tighten.

GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
The gas line can be brought through either the right, the left side or the bottom of the appliance. The gas valve is situated on the bottom of the unit.
The gas line connection may be made of rigid pipe, copper pipe or an approved flex connec­tor. (If you are using rigid pipe, ensure that the valve can be removed for servicing.) Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to consult with your local authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation code.

OPERA TING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct and enclosed to prevent possible shock.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
4) Make sure the glass in the door frame is
properly positioned. Never operate the ap­pliance with the glass removed.
5) Verify that the venting and cap are unob­structed.
6) Ensure that the brick panels are installed.
7) Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be
seen when lighting the unit, the logs have been incorrectly positioned.
8) The unit should never be turned off, and on again without a minimum of a 60 second wait.
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 flame 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 wall switch, thermostat or remote control to turn on the unit.
6) Rotate the flame height regulator to adjust the flame height higher or lower.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1) Use the wall switch, thermostat or remote
control to turn off the main burner.
2) Turn the main gas control clockwise to the "OFF" position to turn off the pilot.
3) Turn off all electric power to appliance if service is to be performed.
FIRST FIRE
During the first few fires, a white film may develop on the glass front as part of the curing process. The glass should be cleaned after the unit has cooled down or the film will bake on and become very difficult to remove. Use a non-abrasive cleaner and DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
AERATION
ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter can be adjusted by moving the adjusting wire up or down. The wire is ac­cessed through the bottom louver opening. Open the air shutter for a blue flame or close for a more yellow flame. The burner aeration is factory set but may need adjusting due to either the local gas supply or altitude.
Minimum Air Shutter Opening: 3/16" Natural Gas Fully Open Propane
CAUTION: Carbon will be produced if air shutter is closed too much.
Note: Any damage due to carboning re-
sulting from improperly setting the aeration controls is NOT covered under warranty.
LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot,
you must first release the
tension springs below the door.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure being applied to the control knob, reapply the tension springs to the door. The unit must not be operated with the tension springs unattached.
IMPORTANT Gas cock knob cannot be turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is partially depressed.
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.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN PLACE.
The first fire 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 fireplace for at least four (4) hours the first time before you use it with the fan on.
When first 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.
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.
Adjustment Wire - Pull down to open or
push up to close aeration cap.
Closed - Tall yellow
Open - Short Blue
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only
be performed by an authorized Regency Installer at the time of installation or service.

OPERA TING 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 and logs and is made of a different gauge material from the rest of the firebox 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 fireboxes.
Copy of the Lighting Plate Instructions
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 flame 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
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the gas 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 appliance and door with a damp cloth (never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a gas fireplace glass cleaner.
The glass should be cleaned when it starts looking cloudy.
3) The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint and should only be refinished with heat resistant paint. Regency uses Stove­Bright Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper position and condition. Visually check the flame of the burner periodically, making sure the flames are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is a problem, call a qualified service person.
5) The appliance and venting system must be inspected before use, and at least annual­ly, by a qualified field service person, to ensure that the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed.
Note: Never operate the appliance with-
out the glass properly secured in place.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight
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 fittings. 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 fittings 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 and 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 diagrams under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will severely alter the unit's perform­ance which is not covered under warranty.
7) Drop the thermocouple or thermopile down
through the extrusion and pull it out of the unit.
8) Reinstall the new ones in reverse order.
GLASS GASKET
If the glass gasket requires replacement use a tadpole glass gasket (Part # 936-155).
GOLD-PLATED
LOUVERS
The 24 carat gold-plated finish on the louvers and trim requires little maintenance, and need only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
DO NOT use abrasive materials or chemical cleaners, as they may harm the finish and void the warranty.
Clean any fingerprints off before turning the unit on.
6) Do not use this appliance if any part has
been under water. Immediately call a qual­ified service technician to inspect the ap­pliance and to replace nay part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
7) In the event this appliance has been serv­iced check that the vent-air system has been properly resealed & reinstalled in accordance with the manufacturer's in­structions.
8) Verify operation after servicing.
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.
