Maintenance  
Instructions

 

1)

  Always shut the valve off 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 brush 
as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.

2)

  Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appliance, 

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

 

The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint 
and should only be refinished with heat resist-
ant paint (not with wall paint). Regency

®

 uses 

StoveBright Paint - Metallic Black #6309.

3)

  Make a  periodic check of burner for proper posi-

tion and condition. Visually check the flame of 
the burner periodically, making sure the flames 
are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is a 
problem, call a qualified service person. 

4)

  The  appliance  and  venting  system  must  be 

inspected before use, and at least annually, by 
a qualified field service person, to ensure that 
the flow 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 - do not block 
the pilot or burner ports.

5)

  Keep  the  area  near  the  appliance  clear  and 

free from combustible materials, gasoline and 
other flammable vapours and liquids.

6)

  Verify proper operation after servicing.

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.

Panel Door

1) 

Remove the door from the unit and place on a 
soft surface to prevent scratching.

2)

  Pull out the door gasket.

3) 

Remove the nuts holding the glass retainers in 
place.

4)

  Remove  the  glass  retainers  (sides,  top  and 

bottom) and the door catch plate.

5)

  Replace the glass. 

The glass must have gas-

keting around it.

6)

  Reverse the previous steps, replace the retainers 

and fasten with the nuts but do not overtighten, 
as this can break the glass. Note: the  door catch 
plate fits on top of the left side retainer.

7)

  Put gasket glue on the retainers, but do not put 

glue on the screws. Replace the door gasket, 
the two ends butt tight together on the bottom 
edge of the door.

8)

  Replace door on the stove and check the seal.

IMPORTANT

Disconnect power supply 

before servicing

WARNING: Electrical Grounding 
Instructions This appliance is 
equipped with a three pronged 
(grounding) plug for your protection 
against shock hazard and should 
be plugged directly into a properly 
grounded three-prong receptacle. 
Do not cut or remove the grounding 
prong from this plug.

Wraparound Assembly Door 

Fan Maintenance

If your fan requires maintenance or replacement, 
access to the fan is through the access panel on 
the rear wall of the firebox. 

 

Note:  The unit MUST NOT be operated 

without the fan access panel se-
curely in place and correctly sealed.

IMPORTANT: These fans collect a lot 
of dust from within your home. Ensure 
you maintain these fan motors on a 
regular basis by vacuuming out the 
fan squirrel cages, around the motor, 
and around the grills on the back of 
the stove.

Door and Glass  
Gasket

 
If the door gasket requires replacement use 
7/8" diameter oval door gasket (Part # 732-570). 
The glass requires 7/8" flat glass gasket. See your 
Regency

®

 dealer.

Glass Replacement

Your  Regency

®

  stove  is  supplied  with  high  tem-

perature,  5  mm  Neoceram  ceramic  glass  that 
will withstand the highest heat that your unit will 
produce.  In  the  event  that  you  break  your  glass, 
purchase  your  replacement  from  an  authorized 
Regency

®

 dealer only, and follow the step-by-step 

instructions for replacement. 

Never operate your 

unit with broken glass.

WARNING: Do not operate appliance with the 
glass front removed, cracked or broken. Replace-
ment of the glass should be done by a licensed 
or qualified service person.
