FRAMING AND FINISHING
IMPORTANT FINISHING DETAIL NOTE:
When installing tile, carpeting, or any other
fi nishing material in front of the unit, the
top of the surface of the tile, carpeting, etc.
must not be any higher than the base of
the fi replace. Any higher and the optional
accessories will not fi t (i.e. fi nishing trim,
surrounds, etc.)
Floor Finishing Material
NOTE: Floor Finishing Material
must not be any higher than the
base of the fi replace.
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.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
36-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 12-3/4" deep
(921mm high x 921mm wide x 324mm
deep).
Note: Header must be installed vertically. If
Header is installed horizontally, it must be
steel.
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

rigid pipe 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
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the
vent to combustible materials for fl ex

5) Use steel studs for framing where the 1-
1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to
combustible material cannot be maintained,

REGENCY® TRIPOLI SCREEN DOOR SERIES FRAMING NOTE
When installing the optional Tripoli Screen Door Series, a non-combustible material 12" (305mm) above the unit and 6" (153mm) on each side
must be used (see Diagram 2). For complete framing details see page 57.
The Tripoli Screen Door Series also requires steel stud framing above and on each side of the unit (refer to Diagram 1).

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) T ake 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.

hole positions A, B, or C depending on your
facing depth.

VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The P36E 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.
