INSTALLATION

1)Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new woodstove. Failure to follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury or even death. Be aware that local Codes and Regulations may override some items in this manual. Check with your local inspector.

2)Select a position for your Regency Stove. Consult the minimum clearance chart for your model and set the stove in place. For close clearance installation use listed double wall connector systems.

3)To insure vertical alignment, suspend a plumb bob from the ceiling over the exact center of your stove fl ue and mark a spot on the ceiling to indicate the center of the chimney.

4)Check that the area above the ceiling is clear for cutting. Re-confi rm the clearance from the stove to combustibles to insure that they are within the prescribed limits.

5)This woodstove must be connected to a UL 103 HT (ULC S629) listed chimney or a code approved masonry chimney with a fl ue liner.

6)Install chimney according to chimney manu- facturers instructions. The performance of your woodstove is governed to a very large part by the chimney system. Too short a chimney can cause diffi cult start-up, dirty glass, backsmoking when door is open, and

even reduced heat output.Too tall a chimney may prompt excessive draft which can result in very short burn times and excessive heat output. The use of an inexpensive fl ue pipe dampermaybehelpfulinreducingexcessive draft.

CAUTION:The chimney should be the same size as the 6" fl ue outlet on the stove. The chimney must be listed as suitable for use with solid fuels. For other types of chimneys check with your local building code offi cials. Do not confuse a chimney with a type “B” Venting System used for gas appliances as suitable for a wood burning appliance. For Mobile Home installations refer to that section on page 14.

7)Mark thelocation of thepedestal base or legs on the fl oor, then move the stove aside and mark the position of the fl oor protector.

8)The fl oor protector must be of non-combus- tible material and must extend 16" in front of the door opening and 6" to the sides and rear of the unit. Some areas may require a larger size fl oor protector. See your local inspector. For outside air installation refer to Mobile Home installation instructions on page 14.

NOTE: In Canada, floor protection must extend 18" (450mm) to the front and 8" (200mm) to each side and back of the stove.

9)When the fl oor protection is complete, posi- tion the stove with the fl ue collar centered under the installed chimney.

10)In seismically active areas, Regency rec- ommends that your unit is secured to the fl oor by using the bolt down holes inside the pedestal (the same ones used in Mobile Home installations).

11)Forresidentialinstallationsusing6"(152mm) "C" Vent (single wall) the chimney connector must be at least 24 gauge steel. Do not use galvanized pipe. For Mobile Home installa- tion refer to the Mobile Home installation instructions on page 14.

12)Do not connect this unit to a chimney serving another appliance.

13)A chimney connector cannot pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a fl oor, ceiling, wall or partition of combustible construction. In Canada, if passage through a wall, or parti- tion of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA- B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burn- ing Appliances and Equipment.

14)Your Regency Woodstove is not to be con- nected to any air distribution duct.

Emissions from burning wood or gas could contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

MODULAR INSTALLATION OPTIONS

The following items are required when assembling your Regency Stove. F2402M unit - the Rear Heat Defl ector is supplied with the stove, but if you choose not to use it you must use the Airmate instead.

Modular Part	Things to consider when choosing options:
Airmate OR	Clearances are different. Generally you can get closer clearances with the airmate than with the rear heat defl ector.
Rear Heat Deflector	Convection heat with Airmate vs. Radiant Heat with Rear Heat Defl ector. The airmate pushes heat forward and into
	the room, the rear heat defl ector defl ects the heat upward.
	There are no performance differences with either the pedestal or legs. It is primarily a personal preference. Legs can
Pedestal OR	be either painted steel, painted cast, or gold plated cast.
Legs	Leg installation requires the bottom shield.
OPTIONS: These can be installed at time of installation or added later:
Modular Option	Things to consider when choosing options
Blower/Fan	Adding the blower will increase the area heated by the stove, it can move warm air beyond the room where the stove
	is installed.
