INSTALLATION
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" (3.175 mm) wide flat screwdriver.
3)
Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT"
pressure tap(s) using a 5/16" (7.9 mm) 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" (3.175 mm) flat
screwdriver.
Note: Screw should be snug,
but do not over tighten.
HIGH ELEVATION
This unit is approved for altitude 0 to 1372m.
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.

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