DRAFT
Draft is the force which moves air from the
appliance up through the chimney. The amount
of draft in your chimney depends on the length of
the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions
and other factors. Too much draft may cause
excessive temperatures in the appliance and may
cause damage. An uncontrollable burn or excessive
temperature indicates excessive draft. Inadequate
draft may cause back puffing into the room and
plugging of the chimney. Inadequate draft will
cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room
through appliance and chimney connector joints.
Ensure the heater is installed in areas that are
not too close to neighbors or in valleys that would
cause unhealthy air quality or nuisance conditions.
IMPORTANT:
Smoke and CO Detectors:
Make sure your home has a working smoke and
CO detector, especially near any bedrooms. We
recommend having a smoke and CO detector
in the same room as the wood appliance for
additional safety. Location of both detectors
should be chosen wisely to avoid false alarms
when reloading the appliance.
Fire Extinguisher:
A fire extinguisher should be installed in the
home. The location of the fire extinguisher
should be known by all family members.

Regency I2500-1 Wood Fireplace Insert
INSTALLING YOUR INSERT
Your insert is very heavy and will require two or
three people to move it into position. The insert
can be made a little lighter by removing the cast
iron door by opening it and lifting it off its hinges.
Be sure to protect your hearth extension with a
heavy blanket or carpet scrap during the installation.
Convection Grills
The black convection grills are pre-installed on
this appliance.
If the optional nickel grills are being used, remove
the black grills and position the nickel grill on the
inside body face side and fasten using the bolts,
washers and nuts provided (2 per side) as shown
in the diagrams.
Note: The grill has a front and rear, the holes
on the front side have rounded edges
and the rear holes have flat edges.
