INSTALLATION INTO A
MASONRY FIREPLACE
The insert must be installed as per the require-
ments of your local inspection authority.
Regency highly recommends the use of a full
liner as the safest installation and provides the
most optimum performance. Your retailer should
be able to help you decide which system would
be the best for your application.
Full Flue Liner
The use of this connection method not only
increases the safety of your insert by directing
the hot gases up the flue, but will also help
increase the unit's efficiency and decrease
creosote deposits in the flue.
When a connected flue or liner is in use, the
insert is able to “breathe” better by allowing a
greater draft to be created. The greater draft can
decrease problems such as, difficult start-ups,
smoking out the door, and dirty glass.
INSTALLATION INTO A
FACTORY BUILT
FIREPLACE
1)
When installed in a factory built fireplace, a
full stainless steel rigid is mandatory, for both
safety and performance purposes. When
a flue or liner is in use, the insert is able to
breathe better by allowing a greater draft to
be created. The greater draft can decrease
problems such as, difficult start-ups, smoking
out the door, and dirty glass.
2)
In order to position the flue liner, the exist
-
ing rain cap must be removed from your
flue system. In most cases the flue damper
should also be removed to allow passage
of the liner.
3)
In most cases opening the existing spark
screens fully should give enough room for
the insert installation. If it does not, remove
and store.
4)
If the floor of your fireplace is below the
level of the fireplace opening, adjust the
insert to accommodate the difference. When
shimming is required, use non-combustible
masonry or steel shims.
5)
Measure approximately the alignment of the
flue liner with the position of the flue outlet
hole on the insert to check for possible offset.
If an offset is required, use a proper stainless
steel unit available with the flue liner.
6)
Once the above items have been checked,
slide your insert into position after first po
-
sitioning the flue liner and offset if required.
(Re-install raincap at completion of installa-
tion).
