GAS MAINTENANCE – RECOMMENDED ANNUAL ROUTINE
In order for your Regency appliance to continue to provide comfort to your home, periodic
maintenance must be performed to ensure it is operating at peak efficiency. The items in the list

unit may require more frequent maintenance checks if you notice any changes in how it operates.
Operational changes to look for can include, but are not limited to, extended start up time,
residue/carbon build up, etc. Should any of these or other conditions arise, discontinue use and
