INSTALLATION
Option 1:
WALL SWITCH
1)Run supplied 15' of wire through the right or left side gas inlet opening. Be careful not to damage wire.
Note: We recommend a maximum of 15' of wire but if you wish to go with a longer run, use the Thermostat Wire Table.
2)Connect wire to supplied wall switch and install into the receptacle box.
CAUTION
Do not connect millivolt wall switch wires for gas appliance to a 240V power supply.
Option 2:
REMOTE CONTROL
Use the Regency® Remote Control Kit approved for this unit. Use of other systems may void your warranty.
The remote control kit comes with a hand held transmitter, a receiver and a wall mounting plate.
1)Choose a convenient location on the wall to install the receiver and the receptacle box (protection from extreme heat is very important). Run wires from the fireplace to that location. Use Thermostat Wire Table.
2)Connect the two wires to the gas valve. See diagram below.
CAUTION
Do not connect millivolt remote control wires for gas appliance to a 240V power supply.
3)Install a 9V alkaline battery in both the receiver and the transmitter. Install the receiver and its cover in the wall. Switch the hand held remote transmitter to "remote" mode. The remote control is now ready for operation.
Option 3:
WALL THERMOSTAT
A wall thermostat may be installed if desired, connect the wires as per the wiring diagram. Use chart below to determine the maximum wire length.
Note: Preferable if the thermostat is installed on an interior wall.
