Maintenance Instructions

1. Always turn off the gas valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep
the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean paint
brush as the logs are fragile and easily dam-
aged.
2. Clean appliance and door with a damp cloth
(never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive
cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a
gas fireplace glass cleaner. The glass should
be cleaned when it starts looking cloudy.
3. The heater is finished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refinished with heat
resistant paint. Regency® uses StoveBright
Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
4. Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
flame of the burner periodically, making sure
the flames are steady; not lifting or floating.
If there is a problem, call a qualified service
person.
5. The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualified field service person, to ensure
that the flow of combustion and ventilation air
is not obstructed.
Note: Never operate the appliance
without the glass properly
secured in place.
6. Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified ser-
vice technician to inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control system and any
gas control which has been under water.
7. In the event this appliance has been serviced
check that the vent-air system has been properly
resealed & reinstalled in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
8. Verify operation after servicing.

General Vent Maintenance

Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi-
annually. Recommended areas to inspect as follows:
1. Check the Venting System for corrosion in areas
that are exposed to the elements. These will
appear as rust spots or streaks, and in extreme
cases, holes. These components should be
replaced immediately.

2. Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight down
the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other
foreign material.
3. Check for evidences of excessive condensation,
such as water droplets forming in the inner
liner, and subsequently dripping out the joints,
Continuous condensation can cause corrosion
of caps, pipe, and fittings. It may be caused
by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, and exterior portions of the system
being exposed to cold weather.
4. Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections or
fittings have been disturbed, and consequently
loosened. Also check mechanical supports such
as Wall Straps, or plumbers' tape for rigidity.

Log Replacement

The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door and carefully remove the logs.
(The pilot light generates enough heat to burn
someone.) If for any reason a log should need
replacement, you must use the proper replacement
log. The position of these logs must be as shown
in the Diagrams under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs
may create carbon build-up and
will severely alter the unit's
performance which is not covered
under warranty.

Glass Gasket

If the glass gasket requires replacement
use a tadpole glass gasket (Part # 846-695).

Door Glass

Your Regency
fireplace is supplied with high
®
temperature 5mm-Ceramic glass. If your glass
requires cleaning, we recommend using an
approved glass cleaner available at all authorized
dealers. Do not use abrasive materials.
CAUTION & WARNINGS:
* Do not clean when the glass is hot.
* The use of substitute glass will void all
product warranties.
* Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the
glass.
* Do not strike or abuse the glass.
* Do not operate this fireplace without the glass
front or with a cracked or broken glass front.
* Wear gloves when removing damaged or
broken glass.
* Replacement of the glass panels should be
done by a licensed or qualified service person.

Glass Replacement

In the event that you break your glass by impact,
purchase your replacement from an authorized
Regency dealer only. Replacement glass (Part
#940-506/P) is shipped already installed into the
door frame. Reinstall as per Glass Door Installation
in the "Glass Door Removal" section.
