MAINTENANCE 

INSTRUCTIONS

1)

  Always turn off the valve before cleaning. 

For relighting, refer to lighting instructions. 
Keep the burner and control compartment 
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least 
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use a 
soft clean paint brush as the logs are fragile 
and easily damaged.

2)

  Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appli-

ance, louvers, and door with a damp cloth.  
Never use an abrasive cleaner. The gold 
louvers (and optional gold door) may be 
scratched if abrasives are used to clean 
them.

 

The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant 
paint and should only be refi nished  with 
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).

 uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic 

Black #6309.

3)

  Make a  periodic check of burner for proper 

position and condition. Visually check the 
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure 
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating. 
If there is a problem, call a qualifi ed service 
person. 

4)

  The appliance and venting system must be 

inspected before use, and at least annually, 
by a qualifi ed fi eld service person, to ensure 
that the fl ow of combustion and ventilation 
air is not obstructed. 

 

During the annual service call, the burners 
should be removed from the burner tray 
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do 
not block the pilot.

5)

  Keep the area near the appliance clear and 

free from combustible materials, gasoline, 
and other fl ammable vapours and liquids.

GENERAL 

VENT MAINTENANCE

Conduct an inspection of the venting system 
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect 
as follows:

1)

  Check the Venting System for corrosion in 

areas that are exposed to the elements. 
These will appear as rust spots or streaks, 
and in extreme cases, holes. These com-
ponents should be replaced immediately.

2)

  Check for evidences of excessive condensa-

tion, such as water droplets forming in the 
inner liner, and subsequently dripping out the 
joints, Continuous condensation can cause 
corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi ttings. It may 
be caused by having exterior portions of the 
system being exposed to cold weather.

3)

  Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sec-

tions or fi ttings have been disturbed, and 
consequently loosened. 

LOG REPLACEMENT

The unit should never be used with broken logs. 
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool 
before opening door to carefully remove the 
logs. The pilot light generates enough heat to 
burn someone. If for any reason a log should 
need replacement, you must use the proper 
replacement log. The position of these logs 
must be as shown in the diagram under Log 
Installation.  

Note:  Improper positioning of logs may 

create carbon build-up and will alter 
the unit’s performance which is not 
covered under warranty.

GOLD-PLATED DOORS

The 24 carat gold plated fi nish on the door 
requires little maintenance, and need only be 
cleaned with a damp cloth.  DO NOT use abrasive 
materials or chemical cleaners, as they may 
harm the fi nish and void the warranty. Clean any 
fi ngerprints off  before turning the unit on. 

If the 

door starts to discolour, check the gasket 
seal and replace if necessary.

DOOR GASKET 

 

If the door gasket requires replacement use 
7/8" diameter oval door gasket (Part # 650-
920). 

Top View of pilot fl ame

Incorrect fl ame pattern will have small, probably 
yellow fl ames, not coming into proper contact 
with the rear of the burner or thermopile. 

6) 

Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause 
condensation and fog the glass.  This 
condensation and fog is normal and will 
disappear in a few minutes as the glass 
heats up.

 

Never operate the appliance without the 
glass properly secured in place or with 
the door open.

7) 

Periodically check the pilot fl ames. Correct 
fl ame pattern has three strong blue fl ames: 
1  fl owing around the thermopile and 1 
around the thermocouple, and 1 fl owing 
across the rear of the burner (it does not 
have to be touching the burner).

Note:  If you have an incorrect fl ame pat-

tern, contact your Regency
