Mobile Home Installation - Regency F1500 Manual

For Canadian Installations: see Outside
Air Kit - Part # 846-502.
There are further requirements when installing
this unit into a mobile home in Canada Only.
Once you have properly marked the position of
your unit and the floor protection as outlined in
the Residential Installation items #1 through #8, a
supply of fresh air has to be supplied to your unit.
See Optional Outside Air Kit instructions in this
manual.
Place your unit in position and secure it to the
floor using two lag bolts 3/8" (10mm) x 3-1/2"
(89mm) through the two holes inside the pedestal
base. It is important to maintain the structural
integrity of the Mobile Home floor, walls and roof
when installing your unit.
For Mobile Home units installed in the U.S. the
unit must be grounded using a #8 ground wire
with approved termination and star washer.
CAUTION: At no time use unlabelled
parts, or substitute parts made for
another chimney system.
Install as per chimney manufacturer's
installation instructions.
1. Identify the position of the outside air damper by the orientation of
the metal handle that rests outside the galvanized pipe. The metal
handle and the damper disc are in line with each other. This means
that if the metal handle is in a horizontal position, the damper is flat
and fully open.
2. Open the damper fully whenever you start a fire. This will allow the
outside air to be drawn in the pedestal base eliminating any potential
smoke escaping the stove and entering the room. (Negative air
pressure)
