DOOR GASKET
If the door gasket requires replacement, 5/8"
diameter material must be used. A proper high
temperature gasket adhesive is required. A gasket
repair kit, Part # 846-530 is available from your local
Regency dealer.
Cleaning & Maintaining Your Wood Stove
Completely clean out entire unit
Inspect air tubes, baffles and bricks
Adjust door catch / latch
Inspect condition and seal of:
Glass Gasket
Door Gasket
Bypass Door Gasket
Paper Test
Check and lubricate door hinge + latch
Check glass for cracks
Clean blower motor
Inspect and clean chimney
Thermostat Probe
NOTE: Chimney Cleaning
When cleaning the chimney system the bottom stainless steel shield underneath the bypass door should be removed for ease of cleaning.
The catalytic combustor should also be removed so this can also be cleaned at the same time following the guide lines found in this manual.
The bypass should be moved all the way outward so any creosote will fall onto the firebox floor when being cleaned.
We highly recommend that the chimney cleaning be done by a professional as they will have the necessary tools such as a proper sized
brush and special vacuum cleaner designed to deal with fine particles.
GLASS CLEANING
Only clean your glass window when it is cool. Your lo-
cal retailer can supply you with special glass cleaner
if plain water and a soft cloth does not remove all
deposits. Regular cleaning will prevent the build up
of carbon and allow full view of fire.
CAUTION: Do not build fire too close to glass window.
WARNING: Do not use abrasive cleaners.
WARNING: Do not clean glass when hot.
WARNING: Do not operate unit with broken glass
GLASS REPLACEMENT
Your Regency Insert is supplied with 5mm Neoceram
ceramic glass (Part #940-420/P) that will withstand the
highest heat that your unit will produce. In the event
that you break your glass by impact - purchase your
replacement from an authorized Regency dealer only,
and follow our step-by-step instructions.
WARNING: Do not use substitute materials.
Annual Maintenance
Annually
Replace any damaged parts.
If unable to obtain a tight seal on the door - replace door gasket seal.
Readjust latch after new gasket installed.
Perform paper test - replace gasket if required
Test the seal on the loading door and bypass door with a paper bill.
Place a paper bill in the gasketed area of the door on a cold stove–close the
door.
Try to remove the paper by pulling.
The paper should not pull out easily; if it does, try adjusting the door latch (load-
ing door only). If that doesn't solve the problem, replace the door gasket, bypass
gasket, or both.
Use only high temperature anti seize lube. (ie. never seize)
Replace if required.
Disconnect power supply.
Remove and clean blower.
*DO NOT LUBRICATE*
Annual professional chimney cleaning recommended.
The thermostat probe that is inserted into the opening above the insert must be
cleaned at least once a year. Use 220 sand paper to clean probe. Access to the
probe can be done in 2 ways.
- by removing the catalyst as this will be exposed once the catalyst is removed.
- by removing the faceplate. However, there must be clearance above the insert
to be able to remove the probe from the top of the insert.
See specific details in this manual.

GLASS REMOVAL
Allow the stove to cool before removing or replacing
glass. Remove the door from the insert and remove
the glass retainer. Use caution when removing
broken glass to prevent injury.
When placing the replacement glass in the door,
make sure the glass gasket will properly seal your
unit. Replace the retainer and tighten securely, but
do not wrench down on the glass as this may cause
breakage. Do not substitute materials. If your glass
door does break, do not continue to use your unit
until it has been replaced.
WARNING: Avoid impact on glass doors
such as striking or slamming shut.
