installation FRAMING FOR SIDEWALLS AND MANTEL: The mantel’s maximum overhang is 10” (254mm) at the minimum height of 52¼” (1327mm) measured from the base of the fireplace. The mantel can extend 1” (25.4mm) further for every 1” (25.4mm) of height it is installed over the minimum height, as shown in Figure 12. Non-combustible mantels and mantel legs are not limited to these dimensions. Mantel temperatures are monitored during testing and can reach 117°F (47°C) above room temperatures. Make sure the finish on your mantel is suitable for temperatures of this range.
Page 12: Typical Framing - Raised Hearth
installation TYPICAL FRAMING - RAISED HEARTH: Warning: Failure to follow these guidelines may result in elevated operating temperatures, an inability to remove or install the door. A non-combustible Hearth Insulation Board is required to be installed between any non-combustible hearth covering and any combustible floor- ing beneath. The design of the unit is such that the fireplace must be raised by the same distance as any additional hearth covering or riser that are added in front of the fireplace. Figure 14 shows a raised hearth made of a wooden construction hearth riser (B), covered with the insu- lation board provided and then covered with non- combustible slate (A). The thickness of the riser (B) is 4” (102mm). The thickness of the slate (A) is 2” (52mm). A+B=C which is 6” (152mm). In summary, the fireplace must be raised by the same thickness of any material added in front of the fireplace.

Page 14: Receiver Installation
installation RECEIVER INSTALLATION Electrical Box (Supplied) Wall Stud Receiver Cover Receiver Figure 22. Receiver Installation. The Receiver is the heart of the remote control system. You need to access this receiver after installation to change the batteries (for operation during a power failure), to program a new remote / receiver combination and to operate a manual override should you lose your remote control or the batteries in the remote control lose their power. The Receiver is connected to the fireplace with a wire harness that has a maximum length of 8 ft (2.4m). The connection point on the fireplace is on the right side of the unit, where the gas valve and electronic ignition module is located. Because of the 8 ft (2.4m) limitation in the wiring harness, the receiver needs to be mounted to the right side of the fireplace. An electrical box is provided for the receiver. Mount this electrical box as you would any electrical outlet or switch box. Thread the cable and connector through the back of the electrical box and connect it to the rear of the receiver. Secure the receiver into the electrical box. Once the facing of the fireplace installation is complete, install the receiver cover, supplied with the unit as shown. The receiver cover also functions as a switch plate and allows for access to the program button, critical for remote control operation. Review the section in this manual regarding the remote control operations for more information on the functions of the receiver. 14 | HZ965/L965 Gas Fireplace...
Page 15: Allowable Vent Configurations
installation ALLOWABLE VENT CONFIGURATIONS: The vent chart, in Figure 23, illustrates the vent configurations that have been tested and approved for use with this appliance. 45˚ elbows are acceptable for this installation and may be used instead of 90˚ elbows. You may use two (2) 45˚ elbows for every 90˚ elbow shown in this chart. This appliance is also approved for use with 5” x 8” flex venting. Only use flexible venting that is approved for this appliance. Flex vent runs must comply with the same limitations as the rigid vent chart shown here. Flexible vent runs greater than 10’ total are not permitted. When using the flexible vent system, part # 946-601 5” x 8” flex pipe adaptor must be used to adapt from rigid venting to flex venting. This must be attached to the appliance prior to attaching flex venting. The restrictor settings shown in Figure 23, are recommended. Installation factors such as altitude, prevailing weather conditions such as temperature or wind, or the number of elbows used may affect your final restrictor settings. Insufficient restriction may cause pilot outages or reduced efficiencies. Too much restriction may lead to elevated operating temperatures, poor flame appearances, sooting or carbon deposits building up on burner effects or window glass. Only use the restrictors supplied with this appliance. Table 1: Vent Restrictor Sizes.

Page 19: Tv Installation Above Unit
TV INSTALLATION ABOVE UNIT: During the development of the L965E/HZ965E, we took into consideration that in some installations TV’s or flat panel monitors may be located above the mantel. Although we can not anticipate every possible installation variable, we took time to evaluate the suitability of the installation of a TV or Plasma display above the mantel. We carried out testing to evaluate what possible operating temperatures that may be experienced when the appliance was installed in an internal chase. A mantel was installed with the maximum overhang at the minimum allowable installation height, with a full 13” (330mm) shelf installed over the unit (see section n omBustIBle aterIal The area above the mantel, within 4 inches (102mm) of the wall was measured under maximum operating conditions and found to not exceed 120°F (49°C). Variations of mantel overhangs, shelf depths or ceiling heights will affect this temperature. Please refer the TV owner’s manual for information on acceptable operating conditions. Care must be taken to evaluate your specific installation and operating conditions when deciding to install electronic equipment above or near this appliance when it is in operation. Always consult your TVs owner’s manual to ensure that this application is an approved installation. SEE NOTE BELOW Figure 27: Installation of TV Above the Unit. IMPORTANT: T emperature acceptance levels in TV’s vary greatly. Before installing any electronic appliance above this fireplace, first verify temperature requirements from the TV manufacturer. See temperatures above for guidance. Regency will not be responsible for heat damage to electronic appliances. HZ965/L965 Gas Fireplace |...
Page 20: Planning Your Installation
installation QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION: Prior to starting your venting installation, refer to the section on Allowable Vent Configurations to make sure your plans fall into the allowable limits of horizontal and vertical installations. When planning your installation, it will be necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular requirements. For horizontal installations, refer to the section on Clearances to Combustibles to determine the minimum clearance from the rear of the appliance to the wall. It is also important to note the wall thickness. Select the amount of vertical rise desired for “vertical-to- horizontal” type installations. To determine the length of vent pipe required for vertical installations, measure the distance from the appliance flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height above the roofline. For two-story applications, firestops are required at each floor level. If an offset is needed in the attic, additional pipe and elbows will be required. ASSEMBLY OF THE UNIT: Left and Right Facing Support 1. Using eight (8) T-20 screws provided, install the facing supports right and left as well as the heat shield in the middle, as shown in Figure 28. 2. U sing eight (8) T20 screws provided, attach both back stand-offs, as shown in Figure 29. Figure 29: Installation of Back Stand-Offs. Figure 28: Installation of Supports & Heat shield.

Page 59: Air Shutter Adjustment
operating instructions AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT: The L965E/ HZ965E is setup to work with two (2) gas orifices. The orifice on the left (looking from the front) feeds the front burner while the right feeds the rear burner, which can also be switched off using the remote control. Each orifice has its own Air Shutter. The Air Shutter is connected to an Adjustment Lever that is accessible from the front and bottom of the firebox. These Air Shutters can be adjusted during the operation of the fireplace. This Figure 68 shows the fireplace with the door and the burners removed. This is to better show the Air Shutters and the Adjustment Levers. The Door/Air Shutter Tool (see Figure 116) has a small slots on one end. These slots can be used to engage the vertical section of the adjustment lever to move the klever forward or rearward. Moving the Lever towards you opens the Air Shutter, while moving it rearward, closes the Air Shutter. Air shutters should be adjusted so that the gas flame burns with a blue base and a bright yellow upper section. Air shutters set to closed will lead to a dirty flame which may lead to soot gathering on the logs and/or glass panel. Properly set Air Shutters will result in a very blue flame for the first fifteen (15) minutes of operations with the flame becoming more yellow as the unit comes up to operating temperature.
