MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn the gas valve to the off position
before cleaning. For relighting, refer to
lighting instructions. Keep the burner and
control compartment clean by brushing and
vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft
paint brush as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.
2) Clean (never when unit is hot) appliance,
door and louvers with a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner. The finishes on
louvers and doors may be scratched if
abrasives are used to clean them. The
heater is finished in a heat resistant paint and
should only be refinished with heat resistant
paint (not with wall paint). Regency uses
StoveBrite Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of the burner for
proper position and condition. Visually
check the flame of the burner periodically,
making sure the flames are steady: not
lifting or floating. If there is a problem, call
a qualified service person.
4) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualified field service person, to ensure
that the flow of combustion and ventilation
air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed and cleaned from the
burner tray.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapours and liquids.

6) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass.
condensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass heats
up.

glass properly secured in place or with
the door open.
7) Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace nay part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under
water.
8) Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct
flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 1
flowing around the thermopile and 1 around
the thermocouple, and 1 flowing across the
front of the burner.

contact your Regency dealer for
further instructions.

GENERAL VENT
MAINTENANCE
T H E
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks, and
in extreme cases, holes. These components
This
should be replaced immediately.
maintenance
2) Remove the Termination Cap, and shine a
flashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird
nests, or other foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive
condensation, such as water droplets forming
in the inner liner, and subsequently dripping
out the joints. Continuous condensation can
cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and fittings.
It may be caused by having excessive
lateral runs, too many elbows, and exterior
portions of the system being exposed to
cold weather.
4) Inspect joints to verify that no pipe
sections or fittings have been disturbed,
and consequently loosened. Also check
mechanical supports such as Wall Straps,
or plumbers' tape for rigidity.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door to carefully remove the
logs. The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone. If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
must be as shown in the diagram under Log
Installation.
NOTE:
Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will alter the unit's
performance which is not covered under
warranty.
GLASS GASKET
If the glass gasket requires replacement use
a tadpole gasket for the Flush Front (Part #
936-155).
DOOR GLASS
Your Regency insert is supplied with high
temperature, 5 mm Neoceram ceramic glass that
will withstand the highest heat that your unit will
produce. Do not abuse the glass by striking the
surface or by slamming the door shut.
If your glass requires cleaning, we recommend
using an approved glass cleaner available at
all authorized dealers. Do not use abrasive
materials. Do not clean the glass when hot.
In the event that you break your glass by impact,
purchase your replacement from an authorized
Regency dealer only, do not use substitute
materials. Follow our step-by-step instructions
for replacement. Warning: Wear gloves when
removing damaged or broken glass.
Caution: Do not operate appliance with
glass panels removed, cracked or broken.
Replacement of the glass should be done by
a licensed or qualified service person.
