INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to follow these instruc­tions may create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the venting and clearance to combustible require­ments on pages 6 to 10. Consult your local building codes before beginning installation.
The location of the termination cap must con­form to the requirements in the Exterior Vent Terminal Locations diagram on page 7.
VENTING INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
The Regency Direct Vent System and the Ver­tical Termination with the Co-linear Flex System are engineered products that have been de­signed and tested for use with the U37-NG, and U37-LP . The Regency warranty will be voided and serious fire, health or other safety hazards may result from any of the following actions:
1) Installation of any damaged Direct Vent component
2) Unauthorized modification of the Direct Vent System
3) Installation of any component part not man­ufactured or approved by Regency Indus­tries Ltd.
4) Installation other than as instructed by Re­gency Industries Ltd.
Warning: Always maintain required clearances (air spaces) to nearby combustibles to prevent a fire haz­ard. Do not fill air spaces with insu­lation.
The minimum clearance requirements between the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby combustible surfaces is 1-1/4 inch. Be sure to check the vent termination clearance require­ments from decks, windows, soffits, gas reg­ulators, air supply inlets and public walkways as specified on page 7 and in your local building codes.
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 its own separate vent system. Common vent sys­tems are prohibited.
SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR
THE INSTALLER
1) Wear gloves and safety glasses for pro-
tection.
2) Exercise extreme caution when using lad­ders or on roof tops.
3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings.
PLANNING YOUR VENTING INSTALLATION
See page 7 for Exterior Vent Termination requirements. .
When planning your installation, it will be nec­essary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular requirements. Determine the minimum clearance to combustibles from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also important to note the wall thickness. Before cutting the vent hole through the wall ensure that ALL vent and termination clearances (see page 7) will be met.
NOTE: Ensure compliance with the outside vent terminal location before cutting hole as both dimensions must be met.
*If this is an outside corner, the minimum distance between the vent and the outside corner is 12" (30cm). See "F" on the diagram on page 7.
For corner installation, Restrictor must be set at 1-1/4" open.
For straight rear installation, Restric­tor must be set at 1-1/8" open.
