INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT

Read all instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to follow these instruc- tions may create a fi re or other safety hazard, and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the venting and clearance to combustible require- ments in "Clearances to Combustibles" to "Rigid Pipe Venting - Vertical Termination" sections. Consult your local building codes before begin- ning installation.

The location of the termination cap must con- form to the requirements in the" Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" section.

INSTALLATION

PRECAUTIONS

The Regency® Direct Vent System and the Vertical Termination with the Co-linear Flex System are engineered products that have been designed and tested for use with the U37-NG1, and U37-LP1. The Regency® war- ranty will be voided and serious fi re, health or

other safety hazards may result from any of the following actions:

1)Installation of any damaged Direct Vent component

2)Unauthorized modification of the Direct Vent System

3)Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved by Regency® Industries Ltd.

4)Installation other than as instructed by Regency® Industries Ltd.

Warning: Always maintain required clearances (air spaces) to nearby com- bustibles to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.

The minimum clearance requirements between the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby com- bustible surfaces is 1-1/4 inch. Be sure to check the vent termination clearance requirements from decks, windows, soffits, gas regulators, air supply inlets and public walkways as specifi ed in the "Exterior VentTerminal Locations" section and in your local building codes.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance.

Each direct vent gas appliance must use its own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.

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 nec- essary 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.

*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

For straight rear installation, Restrictor

be set at 1-1/4" open.

must be set at 1-1/8" open.

NOTE: Ensure compliance with the outside vent terminal location before cutting hole as both dimensions must be met.
