SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FOR THE INSTALLER
1) Wear gloves and safety glasses for protec-
tion.
2) Exercise extreme caution when using lad-
ders or on roof tops.
3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in
walls and ceilings.
PLANNING YOUR VENTING INSTALLATION
See the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations"
section for the 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 the "Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations" section) 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 in the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" section.
For corner installation, Restrictor must
be set at 1-1/4" open.

INSTALLATION
RESIDENTIAL AND MANUFACTURED HOMES /
MOBILE HOMES INSTALLATIONS
You will require the following components with your new Regency® Rear Vent Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove. Please review your product to
make sure you have everything you need. In the event that you are missing any part, contact your dealer. Decorative brass or chrome trim kits are
available from Simpson Dura-Vent for their wall thimbles, as well as a square wall thimble cover.
Note: These are the minimum pieces required.
Other parts may be required for your particular installation.
Minimum components for a Horizontal Installation:
640-944 Horizontal Termination Kit which includes:
1 6-5/8" Dia. x 18" Black Pipe
1 4" Dia. x 18" Aluminum Vent
1 640-530/P Riser Vent Terminal
1 946-202 Wall Penetration Heat Shield (Wall Thimble) (2 pcs)
1 640-545/P Decorative Wall Trim (Black)
1 948-128 Tube Mill-Pac
Screws
determine if wall studs 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.
2) Assemble the desired combination of pipe
and elbow to the appliance adapter with
pipe seams oriented down. Offset the pipe
seams as double seams in one place will
cause the outer pipe to take an oval shape.
Kit comes complete with 18" of straight vent
- 6-5/8" dia. black outer pipe and 4" dia. inner
vent.
3) With the pipe attached to the stove, slide the
stove into its correct location, and mark the
wall for a 9-1/2" (inside dimensions) round
hole. The center of the round hole should line
up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe,
as shown in diagram 1. Cut and frame the
9-1/2 round 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 7" diameter hole is acceptable.
Note: a) The horizontal run of vent should 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 fi re.
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 in "Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations" section.
Diagram 1
c)Snorkel Terminations:For installations requiring a vertical rise
on the exterior of the building, 14-inch
and 36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations
as shown in Dia. 2 are available, as
well as the standard Riser Vent. Follow
the same installation procedures as
used for standard Horizontal Termination. NEVER install the snorkel upside
down.

INSTALLATION
Diagram 2b
NOTE: For Snorkel terminations in ABOVE
grade installations, follow national or
local code requirements.
Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be
installed below grade, i.e. basement
application, proper drainage must be
provided to prevent water from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer to
Dura-Vent Installation instructions for
details.. Do not attempt to enclose the
Snorkel within the wall, or any other type
of enclosure.
4) Install wall penetration heat shield in the
center of the 9-1/2" round hole and attach
with wood screws. The four wood screws
provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or
other types of sidings. Dia. 3.
Diagram 4
8) Connect all pipe sections to unit and install
into wall:
a) Measure pipe length required and cut
to length. Hint: use the cut end of the
6-5/8" dia. outer pipe at the vent terminal
end.
b) Push the pipe sections completely
together, the minimum pipe overlap is
1-1/4". Secure all outer pipe joints by
using at least two screws. Locate the
screws at the bottom of the pipe so that
the screw heads are hidden on the fi nal
installation.
NOTE:For best results and optimum
performance with each approved
venting system, it is highly recommended to apply “Mill-Pac” sealant
(supplied) to every inner pipe connection. Failure to do so may result
in drafting or performance issues not
covered under warranty. Silicone (red
RTV) is optional.
d) Slide the appliance and vent assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the
vent pipe into the riser vent terminal
assembly. It is important that the vent
pipe extends into the Riser Vent Backing
Plate a suffi cient distance so as to result
in a minimum pipe overlap of
1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection
between the vent pipe and the vent cap
by attaching the two sheet metal strips
extending from the Riser Vent Backing
Plate into the outer wall of the vent pipe.
Use two aluminum screws provided to
connect the strips to the pipe section.
Bend any remaining portion of the sheet
metal strip back towards the vent cap and
cut off any excess, it will be concealed
by the decorative wall thimble cover. See
diagram 5.
Diagram 5
8) Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the
wall surface being careful not to scratch the
paint. See diagram 5.
9) Back outside: Apply sealant to the 4" inner
fl ue and slide the Riser Vent Front into the
Backing Plate and fasten with 8 screws.
IMPORTANT:
When connecting the pipe to the Riser
Vent, apply Mill-Pac to the inner pipe on
the Riser Vent Terminal, around the bead.
Ensure that the vent pipe is pushed past
the bead for a secure fi t.

CONVERTING CLASS-A
METAL CHIMNEY OR
MASONRY CHIMNEY TO
DIRECT VENT SYSTEM
General
There are two different types of direct vent
conversion systems listed below. Follow the
appropriate directions for your installation.
A) Through an existing factory built metal
chimney going through the ceiling: A typical
conversion of this type is shown in diagram
1. The concept of direct vent conversion is
to connect an adaptor to an Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) listed 4 inch diameter
aluminum fl ex pipe which is then passed
down through the center of the existing metal
chimney system. Three sizes of Top Adaptors are available from Simpson Dura-Vent.
The Retro Connector (909B) is attached to
the bottom of the fl ex pipe. The Top Adaptor
and the Retro Connector are attached to the
existing chimney with sheet metal screws.
The appliance is then connected to the
chimney with appropriate black direct vent
pipe and an adjustable length section.
B) Through the wall of an existing masonry
chimney: A typical conversion of an existing
masonry chimney is shown in Diagram 6. A
Top Adaptor (985K) and Flashing are used at
the top of the masonry chimney. The 4 inch
aluminum liner is connected to the adaptor
and is passed down the chimney and out
through the masonry wall and attached
to the Retro Connector (909B). The Retro
Connector is attached to the masonry wall
and then connected to the direct vent pipe
leading to the appliance.
Prior to installation and connection of the
vent system to a factory-built or masonry
chimney, the chimney must be inspected and
thoroughly cleaned by a qualifi ed service
person, such as a certifi ed chimney sweep
or home inspection service.
Approved for US Installations Only
The use of an existing chimney as an air
intake is not covered under the ANSI Z21.88b2003/CSA 2.33b-2003 test methods and the
resulting ITS/WHI product certifi cation. The
code Authority Having Jurisdiction must
be consulted prior to proceeding with this
installation method.
Converting a Factory
Built Metal Chimney
1) Remove the existing chimney cap.
2) Measure the distance from the top end of the
chimney to the bottom of the ceiling support
box, add 3" (76mm) to this measurement,
and cut a section of the 4" fl ex pipe to that
length (the fl ex should already be extended
to its nominal length).
3) Connect the end of the fl ex pipe section to
the underside of the Top Adaptor using 3
sheet metal screws.
Diagram 2.
4) Pass the fl ex pipe down through the center of
the chimney system, and center the adaptor
on the top of the chimney pipe. Drill four 1/8"
diameter holes through the adaptor and into
the chimney top. Insure that you are in fact,
drilling into the metal on the chimney. Twistlock the Termination Cap (Part# 980 or 991)
onto the Adaptor. (Diagram 3 and 4).
Diagram 3
Diagram 4
5) Pull the fl ex pipe down through the ceiling
support box, until it protrudes approximately
3" (76mm). Connect the fl ex pipe to the Retro
Connector by slipping it into the
4-3/4" diameter sleeve on the top side of
the Connector. Use 3 sheet metal screws
to assemble these two parts.
6) Push the fl ex pipe back up into the ceiling
support box, center the Retro Connector, and
attach it to the support box, or decorative
sleeve for double wall solid packed pipe,
with the sheet metal screws (supplied).
The holes in the Retro Connector are prepunched. Diagram 5.
The direct vent system must not be connected to a damaged factory-built or masonry
chimney.
For factory built, zero clearance, and masonry chimneys cleanout doors and caps
or plugs for cleanout tee fi ttings and ash
dumps shall be secured in place and sealed
before installing a Direct Vent system within
the chimney.
If the appliance shuts off during operation,
contact a qualifi ed service person to determine if a negative pressure and/or leaky
chimney condition exists. Do not operate the
appliance until the problem is corrected.

MASONRY CHIMNEY
Important: The existing masonry fl ue opening needs to have an area of at least a 36 sq.
in. to insure proper intake/exhaust fl ow.
1) Before cutting any holes, assemble the
desired sections of black direct vent pipe
to determine the center of the masonry
penetration.

4) To determine the length of fl ex required,
measure from 3" (76mm) above the top of
the Flashing down to the level of the opening. Add to this measurement the distance
from the center of the chimney to out through
the wall. Cut a piece of 4" fl ex to this length
(the fl ex should already be extended to its
nominal length).
5) Connect the 4" fl ex liner to the Top Adaptor
(Part # 985K) using 3 sheet metal screws.
Diagram 2.
6) Feed the 4" fl ex liner through the Flashing
into the chimney. Continue to feed the liner
out through the opening in the masonry
wall.
INSTALLATION
Diagram 9
9) Slide the Wall Thimble Cover (Part # 940)
over the Retro Connector and secure with
masonry bolts. Diagram 10. If you have a
framed wall in front of the masonry, use wood
screws to mount the Wall Thimble Cover to
the framed wall, over the Retro Connector
and the 10" (254mm) square framed opening. Diagram 11. If needed, add a section
of direct vent pipe to the Retro Connector in
order to extend through the opening in the
Wall Thimble Cover.
Diagram 6
2) Once the center point of the penetration has
been determined, cut a 6" (152mm) dia. hole
in the masonry. Be careful, if the hole is too
large, the Retro Connector might not mount
properly, and if the hole is too small, then
the appliance might starve for intake air. If
there is a frame wall in front of the masonry
wall, cut and frame a 10" (254mm) clear
square opening in the wall (centered around
the 6" (152mm) masonry opening). IF there
is sheet rock only (no studs) in front of the
masonry, the 10" (254mm) clear opening is
still needed, but does not need to be framed.
This allows the Retro Connector to mount
directly on the masonry and provide clearance to the combustibles. Diagram 11.
3) Secure the Flashing (Part # 705C) to the
top of the masonry chimney using a bead
of non-hardening sealant-adhesive. If the
Flashing is larger than the top of the chimney,
then cut and fold fl ashing as needed to fi t
chimney. Diagram 7.
7) Secure the Top Adaptor to the Flashing. Use
3 sheet metal screws through the side of
the adaptor into the fl ange on the Flashing
(diagram 8). Twist lock the Termination Cap
(Part # 980 or 991) on to the Top Adaptor.
Diagram 8
8) Attach the fl ex to the Retro Connector. Use
3 sheet metal screws to attach the fl ex liner
to the Connector. Diagram 9. Mount the
Retro Connector to the masonry wall using
masonry bolts. Re-drill larger holes on connector as needed. Be careful to insure that
the connector is centered in the opening and
the mounting holes line up with the masonry
wall.
Diagram 10
Diagram 11
10) The connection between the appliance and
the Retro Connector may be completed with

INSTALLATION
GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90o elbow.
The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make installation easier, use a listed fl exible connector
and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes.
Since some municipalities have additional local
codes it is always best to consult with your local
authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation
codes. For USA installations follow local codes
and/or the current National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1.
When using copper or fl ex connectors use only
approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so
that gas lines can be easily disconnected for
burner and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for
copper lines and fl ex 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 fl ame for leak testing.
Note: Prior to any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system
that exceeds test pressures of
1/2 psig, this appliance must be
disconnected from the piping
system. If test pressures equal to
or less than 1/2 psig are used then
this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during the testing.
AERATION
ADJUSTMENT
The burner aeration is factory set but may need
adjusting due to either the local gas supply, air
supply or altitude.
Natural Gas: 1/4" open
Propane: 3/8" open
The aeration adjustment gears are located on
the right side of the burner box and can be accessed from the side or from the front when the
louvers are removed.
To adjust the aeration: use the allen key to turn
the turning gear which will adjust the air shutter.
Open the air shutter for a blue fl ame or close it
for a yellower fl ame. The factory setting should
be suffi cient for most installations.

GAS PIPE PRESSURE TESTING
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.45
kPa). Disconnect piping from valve at pressures
over 1/2 psig.
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" posi-
tion.
2) Loosen the "IN" and/or "OUT" pressure
tap(s), turning counterclockwise with a 1/8"
wide fl at 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. Read manometer.
6) When fi nished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8"

LIGHTING
PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, the
door to the fi rebox must be opened.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, should the
door to the fi rebox be closed. The unit must never be operated with the glass or door
open.
1) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn
to "PILOT" position.
2) Push in control knob all the way and hold in
until the pilot lights up. Continue to hold the
control knob in for about 20 seconds after
the pilot is lit. Release knob.
3) Push in gas control knob slightly and turn
to "ON" position.
4) Turn ON the fl ame switch.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1) Use the 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 (push
knob in slightly).
3) Turn off all electric power to appliance if
service is to be performed.
FIRST FIRE
The fi rst fi re 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 fi replace for at least four (4) hours
the fi rst time you use it with the fan on. When
fi rst 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.
The glass panel may require cleaning
after the unit has cooled down.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Note: When the glass is cold and the appli-
ance 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.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT THE GLASS FRONT IN
PLACE.
During the fi rst few fi res, a white fi lm
may develop on the glass front as part
of the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the fi lm will bake on and
become very diffi cult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.
CONVECTION FAN
OPERATION
The fan operates automatically - turn the knob
on the pedestal control panel to adjust to the
desired speed. The fan will turn on as the stove
comes up to operating temperature. After the
unit has been turned off and the unit cooled to
below a useful heat output range the fan will
shut off automatically.
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(s) and logs and is made of a different gauge material from the rest of the fi rebox
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 fi reboxes.
U37-1 Regency® ULTIMATE Rear Vent Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove25
Page 26
OPERATING 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 fl ame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.

INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the 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 glass (never when unit is hot), appli-
ance, louvers, and door with a damp cloth.
Never use an abrasive cleaner. The gold
louvers (and optional gold door) may be
scratched if abrasives are used to clean
them.
The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refi nished with
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).
Regency® uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic
Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating.
If there is a problem, call a qualifi ed service
person.
4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualifi ed fi eld service person, to ensure
that the fl ow of combustion and ventilation
air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other fl ammable vapours and liquids.
PART OF CONTROL SYSTEM AND
ANY GAS CONTROL WHICH HAS

CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN
OR GUARD REMOVED FOR SERVICING AN APPLIANCE MUST BE
REPLACED PRIOR TO OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT
BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THE
APPLIANCE.
6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This
condensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass
heats up.
Never operate the appliance without the
glass properly secured in place or with
the door open.
7) Periodically check the pilot fl ames. Correct
fl ame pattern has three strong blue fl ames:
1 fl owing around the thermopile and 1

GENERAL
VENT MAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. 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.
2) Check for evidences of excessive condensa-
tion, such as water droplets forming in the
inner liner, and subsequently dripping out the
joints, Continuous condensation can cause
corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may
be caused by having exterior portions of the
system being exposed to cold weather.
3) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sec-
tions or fi ttings have been disturbed, and
consequently loosened.
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 to 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 diagram under Log
Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will alter
the unit’s performance which is not
covered under warranty.

MAINTENANCE
FAN MAINTENANCE
If your fan requires maintenance or replacement,
access to the fan is through the plate on the rear
wall of the fi rebox. NOTE: the unit MUST NOT
be operated without the fan access panel
securely in place and correctly sealed.
IMPORTANT: These fans collect a lot of
dust from within your home. Ensure you
maintain these fan motors on a regular
basis by vacuuming out the fan squirrel
cages, around the motor, and around the
grills on the back of the stove.
IMPORTANT
Disconnect power supply
before servicing
4) Lift fan off of the 2 pins, tip back and pull
through the opening. Disconnect the green
ground wire from the right side of the fan as
soon as you can reach it.
Replacing Fan:
Reverse the above steps (1 - 4). Make
sure the fan wires and the ground wire
are reattached.
REMOVING VALVE
If your valve requires maintenance or replacement, use the following instructions:
Note: Always close off the gas supply before
removing the valve.
1) Open front pedestal door. You may want to
put a soft cloth on the base of the unit so that
when the pedestal door is open it doesn't
scratch the paint. See diagram below.
WARNING:
Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with
a three pronged (grounding) plug
for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong from

To Remove Fan:
1) Unplug or disconnect power source to
stove.
2) Remove the rear
access panel
on the back of
the stove. The
fan can only be
accessed from
the back of the
stove.
Hint for pushing fan down onto pins - rub
a bit of dish soap on the grommet so it
will slide more easily onto the pin. Check
to make sure the fan is seated properly
on the pins - try to move the fan back
and forth, there should be no noise, if
there is check that the grommets haven't
come loose.
2) Undo the six screws holding the control panel
in place.
3) Disconnect all wires from the back of the con-
trol panel and then remove panel. You should
lay the panel on a soft cloth so it doesn't get
marked up. See diagram above.
3) Unclip the black
and white wires
from the fan motor.
