Unit Installation With Horizontal Termination Flex System - Regency Greenfire GF1500LLP-2 Owners & Installation Manual

Unit Installation With Horizontal
Termination Flex System
Note: A top clearance of 76mm and side &
bottom clearance of 51mm must be
maintained; except when passing
through a wall, ceiling, or at the
termination where the use of a wall
thimble reduces the required clearance
to 38mm. We recommend framing a
279mm x 279mm (inside dimensions)
hole to give structural rigidity for
mounting the termination.
1. Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the
gas (preferably on the right side of the unit).
Locate the centerline of the termination and
mark wall accordingly. Cut an 279mm hole in
the wall (inside dimension).
2. Level the fireplace and fasten it to the framing
using nails or screws through the nailing
strips.
3. Assemble the flue assembly by applying Mill
Pac to the 127mm inner collar of the termination
and slipping the 127mm liner over it at least
35mm. Fasten with the 3 screws (drilling pilot
holes will make this easier). Apply Mill Pac or
high temperature silicone to the 203mm flex
pipe and slip it over the outer collar of the vent
terminal at least 35mm and fasten with the 3
screws.

NOTE: Horizontal sections must be sup-
ported at intervals not exceeding
0.9 meter. (Flame picture and per-
formance will be affected by sags in
the liner).
4. Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble and
securely fasten the one with the tabs to the
outside wall making sure that the tabs are
on top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble
half to the inside wall. The thimble halves
slip inside each other and can be adjusted
for 51 x 102mm x 51mm x 152mm walls.
5. Slip the assembled liner and termination
assembly through the thimble making sure
the termination cap faces up (there are
markings on the cap that show which way
is up). This will position the termination cap
with proper down slope for draining water.
Fasten the cap to the outer wall with the 4
supplied screws.
6. Pull the centre 127mm liner and outer 203mm
liner out enough to slip over the flue collars
of the fireplace. (You may wish to cut the
liner shorter to make it more workable.) Do
not bend liner more than 90
must slip over the collars a minimum of
35mm.
7. Apply Mill Pac over the fireplace inner collar
and slip the 127mm liner down over it and
attach with 3 supplied screws.

8. Do the same with the 203mm liner.
9. Apply a bead of silicone between the thimble
and termination and around the outer edge of
the terminal at the wall in order to keep the water
out.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate termination hood
where excessive snow or ice buildup may
occur. Be sure to check flue termination
area after snow falls, and clear to prevent
accidental blockage of flueing system. When
using snow blowers, make sure snow is not
directed towards vent termination area.
