INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

for Regency Direct Vent System (Flex)

1)Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the gas (preferably on the right side of the unit) and the electrical (Junction block is on the left side) on the left. Locate the centerline of the termination and mark wall accordingly. Cut a 10"(254mm) hole in the wall (inside dimension).

Note: To make the installation more aes- thetically pleasing, we recommend framing out a square to mount the terminal to.

Note: A 2-1/2" (64mm) horizontal top and 1-1/2" (38mm) horizontal sides & bottom clearance around the liner must be maintained except that only a 1" (25mm) clearance is needed at the termination end. We recommend framing a 10"(254mm) x 10"(254mm) (inside dimensions) hole to give structural rigidity for mounting the termination.

Note: If installing termination on a siding covered wall, furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.

2)Level the fi replace and fasten it to the fram- ing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.

3)Assemble the vent assembly by applying Mill Pac to the 4"(100mm) inner collar of the terminationand slippingthe4"(100mm)liner over it at least 1-3/8" (35mm). Fasten with the 3screws (drillingpilotholes willmake this easier). Apply Mill Pac or high temperature silicone to the 6-7/8"(175mm) fl ex pipe and slip it over the 6-7/8" outer collar of the vent terminal at least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with the 3 screws.

4)Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble and securely fasten the one with the tabs to the outside wall making sure that the tabs are on top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble half to the inside wall. The thimble halves slip inside each other and can be adjusted for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 walls. The liners must slip over the collars a minimum of 1-3/8".

*If this is an outside corner, the minimum distance between the vent and the outside corner is 6" (15cm) with AstroCap termination cap or 12" (30cm) with Dura-Vent termination cap. See "F" on the diagram on page 10.
