IMPORTANT
Regency Fireplace Products are designed, produced, tested and certified to the highest
industry standards.
The finishing of the walls surrounding your Regency Horizon Fireplace is as critical as
the installation itself.
The temperatures around linear gas fireplaces are typically higher than would be
acceptable for combustible materials. Your Regency Horizon Fireplace is no exception
to this rule. Therefore, the units are specified with non-combustible required materials
to specific dimensions above and around the units. This is due to these areas reaching
higher temperature levels than required/acceptable for a combustible material. To obtain
the best, most durable finish around your fireplace, this calls for a high level of care
and attention to the preparation and finish around this appliance, using only the highest
quality materials, able to withstand the temperatures produced.
By following the installation instructions in the manual exactly, you will increase your
chances of a damage free finish.
While every precaution is taken in providing the recommendations on preparation and
finish, given the variations in paint quality, with temperature limits and workmanship in
application, Regency is unable to guarantee the life of the joint compounds, paint or any
other finish materials or workmanship applied to or used in any application surrounding
the fireplace. This includes framing as well as finishing.
Over time natural convection from any fireplace can cause discoloration in the area
directly above the appliance. Lower quality paints, under-prepared finishes, poor
applications, and any framing discrepancies or in the installation can cause this
discoloration process to be expedited.
Discoloration is not the responsibility of Regency Fireplace Products. This is out of the
control of Regency Fireplace Products Ltd., therefore not covered under any part of the
warranty policy.
While discoloration is not the responsibility of Regency Fireplace Products, we believe
careful attention to the recommendations provided here will result in an aesthetically
pleasing result free of issues outlined above.
