operating instructions
During the first few fires, a white film
may develop on the glass front as part
of the curing process. The glass should
be cleaned or the film will bake on and
become very difficult to remove. Use a
non-abrasive cleaner and NEVER clean
the glass while it is hot.
AERATION
ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter can be adjusted by moving the
adjusting wire up or down. The wire is accessed
through the bottom louver opening. Open the air
shutter for a blue flame or close for a yellower
flame. The burner aeration is factory set but may
need adjusting due to either the local gas supply
or altitude.
Minimum Air Shutter Opening:
3/16"
Natural Gas
1/2" Propane
CAUTION: Carbon will be produced if air shutter
is closed too much.
Note: Any damage due to carboning resulting from
improperly setting the aeration controls is NOT
covered under warranty.
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only be per
-
formed by an authorized Regency Installer
at the time of installation or service.
NORMAL OPERATING
SOUNDS OF GAS
APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are
normal
operating sounds and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.
Blower:
Regency gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" sound
when ON. This sound will increase or decrease
in volume depending on the speed setting of
your fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube(s) and logs and is made of a different
gauge material from the rest of the firebox and
body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of steel
will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"
sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fireboxes.
Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is the
switch contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a
dull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will be
heard throughout the cycling process.
FIRST FIRE
The first fire in your fireplace is part of the paint
curing process. To ensure that the paint is properly
cured, it is recommended that you burn your
fireplace for at least four (4) hours the first time
you use it with the fan on.
When first operated, the unit will release an odour
caused by the curing of the paint, the burning off
of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Smoke
detectors in the house may go off at this time.
Open a few windows to ventilate the room for a
couple of hours.
The glass panel may require cleaning after the unit
has cooled down.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE
GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Note: When the glass is cold and the appliance
is lit, it may cause condensation and fog
the glass. This condensation is normal
and will disappear in a few minutes as
the glass heats up.
DO NOT BURN THE APPLIANCE WITH-
OUT THE GLASS FRONT IN PLACE.
Adjustment wire: Push to close or
pull to open aeration cap.
