GAS PIPE PRESSURE 

TESTING

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply 

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 valve 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)

  Light the pilot and turn the valve to "ON" 

position.

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 gas valve, disconnect the hose and 

tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" flat 

screwdriver. 

Note: Screw should be snug, 

but do not over tighten.

PILOT ADJUSTMENT

Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct 

flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 

1 flowing around the thermopile, 1 around 

the thermocouple and 1 flowing across the 

burner (it does not have to be touching the 

burner).

Note:  If you have an incorrect flame pattern, 

contact your Regency

®

 dealer for 

further instructions.

HIGH ELEVATION

This unit is approved in Canada for altitude 0 to 

4500 ft. (CAN1 2.17-M91).

GAS LINE INSTALLATION

The gas line can be brought through either the 

right, the left side  or the bottom of the appliance. 

The gas valve is situated on the bottom of the unit.

The gas line connection may be made of rigid pipe, 

copper pipe or an approved flex connector. (If you 

are using rigid pipe, ensure that the valve can be 

removed for servicing.) Since some municipalities 

have additional local codes it is always best to 

consult with your local authorities and the CAN/

CGA B149 installation code.

For USA installations follow local codes and/or the 

current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

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.

Important: Always check for gas leaks with a 

soap and water solution or gas leak detector. 

Do not use open flame for leak testing.

Incorrect  flame  pattern  will  have  small, 

probably  yellow  flames,  not  coming  into 

proper contact with the rear burner or 

thermopile or thermocouple.
