Regency GFI300L Gas Fireplace Inbuilt

INSTALLATION

AERATION ADJUSTMENT

The burner aeration is factory set but may need 
adjusting  due  to  either  the  local  gas  supply  or 
altitude. Open the air shutter for a blue flame or 
close for a more yellow flame. 

Minimum Air Shutter Opening:

NG      3/16" (5mm)

LPG         1/2" (13mm)

ULPG       Full Open

Note:   Any damage due to carboning resulting 

from improperly setting the aeration 

controls is NOT covered under warranty.

GAS PIPE PRESSURE  

TESTING

The appliance must be isolated from the gas sup-
ply piping system by closing its individual manual 
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the 
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal 
to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.45 kPa).  Disconnect 
piping from valve at pressures over 1/2 psig.

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator 
built into the gas control, and should be checked 
at the pressure test point.

Note: To properly check gas pressure, both 

inlet and manifold pressures should be 

checked using the valve pressure ports 

on the valve.

1)

  Make sure the unit is in the "OFF" position.

2)

  Loosen the "IN" and/or "OUT" pressure tap(s), 

turning counterclockwise with a 

 

1/8" wide flat screwdriver.

3)

  Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT" pressure 

tap(s) using a 5/16" ID hose.

4)

  Turn the unit on with the remote or wall switch

5)

  The pressure check should be carried out with 

the unit burning and the setting should be within 
the limits specified on the safety label.

6)

  When  finished  reading  manometer,  turn  off 

the unit, disconnect the hose and tighten the 
screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" flat screwdriver. 

Note: Screw should be snug, but do not over 
tighten.

Note:  If you have an incorrect flame pattern, 

contact your Regency

®

 dealer for further 

instructions.

Incorrect flame pattern will have small, probably 
yellow flames, not coming into proper contact 
with the rear burner or flame sensor.

PILOT ADJUSTMENT

Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct flame 
pattern has three strong blue flames: 1 flowing 
around the flame sensor and 1 flowing across 
the burner (it does not have to be touching the 
burner), and 1 opposite the flame sensor.

GAS LINE  

INSTALLATION

Since some municipalities have additional local 
codes it is always best to consult with your local 
authorities.

When using copper or flex connectors use only 
approved  fittings.  Always  provide  a  union  so 
that gas lines can be easily disconnected for 
servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and flex 
connectors are usually considered to meet this 
requirement.

NOTE: A shutoff / dante valve should be 
supplied in or near the unit (or as per local 
codes) for ease of servicing this appliance.
