INSTALLATION

LEG OPTION ON H2100

HEARTH HEATER

The addition of legs to the Hearth Heater does not alter its certification, it does not become a freestanding woodstove. The H2100 can only be installed as a Hearth Heater i.e. vented into a masonry or factory built fireplace.

The instructions below apply to the steel leg, painted cast leg and the gold plated cast leg. It will be easier to attach the legs to the stove if it is tipped on its back (preferably on a soft surface to prevent scratching).

1)Thread the bolt and washer through the leg, and then into the nutsert in the base of the stove and tighten.

2)Level the stove by adjusting the levelling bolts in the bottom of each leg.

NOTE: Adding the legs changes the height of the unit, make sure you have sufficient clearance (min. 28") for your flue connection.

FLUE CONNECTOR

BRACKET

Package contains: 3 brackets and 6 screws.

These brackets are to be used to hold the flue liner (not supplied) to the Insert and keep the connection. The brackets are screwed into the top of the Insert in the pre-punched holes and then screwed into the flue liner.

INSTALLATION INTO A MASONRY FIREPLACE

When referencing installation or connec- tion to masonry fireplaces or chimneys, the masonry construction must or shall be code complying.

The insert must be installed as per the require- ments of your local inspection authority. Three methods of flue connection are acceptable in most areas, these include:

1)Positive flue connection, where a large blocking plate and a short connector pipe is used.

2)Direct flue connection, where a smaller blocking plate and a connector pipe to the first flue liner tile is used.

3)Full flue liner, where a stainless steel rigid or flexible liner pipe is routed from the insert outlet collar to the top of the chimney.

Regency highly recommends the use of a full liner as the safest installation and provides the most optimum performance. Your retailer should be able to help you decide which system would be the best for your application.

In Canada this fireplace insert must be in- stalled with a continuous chimney liner of 6" diameter extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the Class 3 requirements of CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Sys- tems for New Masonry Chimneys.

Note: A clean-out door is sometimes required, by your inspector, to be installed when either the Positive flue connection or Direct flue connection method is used.

The use of one of the connection methods listed on this page not only increases the safety of your insert by directing the hot gases up the flue, but will also help increase the unit's efficiency and decrease creosote deposits in the chimney.

When a connected flue or liner is in use, the insert is able to “breathe” better by allowing a greater draft to be created. The greater draft can decrease problems such as, difficult start-ups, smoking out the door, and dirty glass.

INSTALLATION INTO A

FACTORY BUILT

FIREPLACE

1)When installed in a factory built fireplace, a full stainless steel rigid or flexible flue liner is mandatory, for both safety and perform- ance purposes. When a flue or liner is in use, the insert is able to breathe better by allowing a greater draft to be created. The greater draft can decrease problems such as, difficult start-ups, smoking out the door, and dirty glass.

2)In order to position the flue liner, the exist- ing rain cap must be removed from your chimney system. In most cases the flue damper should also be removed to allow passage of the liner.

3)In most cases opening the existing spark screens fully should give enough room for the insert installation. If it does not, remove and store.
