Maintenance Instructions
1. Always turn off the gas valve 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 soft clean paint
brush as the logs are fragile and easily dam-
aged.
2. Clean appliance and door with a damp cloth
(never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive
cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a
gas fireplace glass cleaner. The glass should
be cleaned when it starts looking cloudy.
3. The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint
and should only be refinished with heat resis-
tant paint. Regency® uses StoveBright Paint
- Metallic Black #6309.
4. Make a periodic check of burner for proper posi-
tion 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.
5. 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.
Note: Never operate the appliance without
the glass properly secured in place.
6. Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified ser-
vice technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
7. In the event this appliance has been serviced
check that the vent-air system has been properly
resealed & reinstalled in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
8. Verify operation after servicing.
General Vent Maintenance
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 should be
replaced immediately.
2. Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight down
the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other foreign
material.

3. Check for evidences of excessive condensa-
tion, 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 and 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 Diagrams under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs
may create carbon build-up
and will severely alter the unit's
performance which is not covered
under warranty.
Glass Gasket
If the glass gasket requires replacement
use a tadpole glass gasket (Part # 936-157).
