INSTALLATION

RESIDENTIAL

INSTALLATION

1)Read all instructions before installing your Regency Stove. Install and use only in ac- cordance with these installation and operating instructions. 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 (refer to Combustible Wall Chimney Connector Pass - Throughs).

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)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, backsmok- ing when door is open, and even reduced heat output. Too tall a chimney may prompt exces- sive draft which can result in very short burn times and excessive heat output. The use of an inexpensive fl ue pipe damper may be helpful in reducing excessive draft.

CAUTION: The chimney should be the same size as the flue 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 con- fuse a chimney with a type “B” Venting System used for gas appliances as suitable for a wood burning appliance (refer to the Mobile Home installations section).

6)Mark the location of the pedestal base or legs on the fl oor, then move the stove aside and mark the position of the fl oor protector.

7)The fl oor protector must be of non-combustible 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 section.

NOTE: In Canada, floor protection must ex- tend 18" to the front and 8" to each side of the stove.

8)When the fl oor protection is complete, position the stove with the fl ue collar centered under the installed chimney.

9)In seismically active areas, Regency recom- mends 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 instal- lations).

10)For residential installations using "C" Vent (single wall) the chimney connector must be at least 24 gauge steel. Do not use galvanized pipe. For Mobile Home installation refer to the Mobile Home installation section.

11)Do not connect this unit to a chimney serving another appliance unless approved by your local building authority.

12)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 pas- sage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equip- ment.

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

ROOM AIR

IMPORTANT

For installation using room air for combustion, remove knockout from the pedestal, and/or from the bottom if using a heat shield.

Mobile home installations require the use of out- side air.

On pedestal units there are two locations where outside air may be adapted to the unit. If using the bottom of the pedestal, do not remove knockout from the rear of the pedestal. Only remove rear knockout if outside air will be brought in from the rear.

On leg units outside air can only be brought in from the bottom of the heat shield.

Note: Once the knockout is removed there are two tabs remaining. Bend both tabs out for ease of installation when attaching outside air.

MODULAR INSTALLATION OPTIONS

The following items are required when assembling your Regency Stove. F1100 and F3100 units - 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:
	Clearances are different. See the chart on pages 8 and 9. Generally you can get closer clearances with the airmate
F1100 & F3100 only:	than with the rear heat defl ector.
Airmate OR	Convection heat with Airmate vs. Radiant Heat with Rear Heat Defl ector. The airmate pushes heat forward and into
Rear Heat Deflector
	the room, the rear heat defl ector defl ects the heat upward. See installation instructions on page 10.
(all units)	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. See installation instructions on page 11.
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. Installation instructions on page 18.
Ash Drawer Kit	Adding the Ash Drawer Kit makes cleaning ashes out of the stove easier and cleaner. Installation instructions on
	page 17.
Screen Door	A simple add-on option that will allow you to enjoy the sound, warmth and view of an open fi re.
