UNIT ASSEMBLY
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before the unit is put into position.
Top Standoff Assembly
Top Facing Support &
Side Nailing Strips
Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"
(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position and must be pulled up and bent into the correct shape.
1) Remove the standoffs from on top of the fi rebox by undoing the screws.
The Top Facing Support & Side Nailing Strips can be mounted in various positions depending on the thickness of the facing material.
2) Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the screw holes in the standoff and the pre-punched screw holes on the fi rebox top line-up.
1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched screw holes on the top front of the unit. Adjust support to desired facing material depth.
3) Attach the standoffs securely to the top with
4 screws per standoff.
Note: Secure the standoffs to the holes closest to the edge of the fi rebox top.
2) Mount Side Nailing Strip using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched screw holes at the front sides of the unit.
Adjust support to desired facing material thickness.
For a facing material depth of
1-1/4"(32mm), the top facing support must be reversed.
VENTING INTRODUCTION
The P33-3 uses the "balanced fl ue" technology Co Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room air up the chimney.
There are 2 vent systems approved for use with the P33-3: the Regency Direct Vent System (Flex) for Horizontal Terminations only (see pages
11-12), and the Simpson Dura-Vent Systems for Horizontal and Vertical Terminations (see pages 13-24).
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.
NOTE: Ensure compliance with the outside vent terminal location before cutting hole as both dimensions must be met.

INSTALLATION
1) Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the gas (preferably on the right side of the unit) and the electrical (Junction block is on the left side) on the left. Locate the centerline of the termination and mark wall accordingly.
Cut a 10"(254mm) hole in the wall (inside dimension).
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES for Regency Direct Vent System (Flex)
*If this is an outside corner, the minimum distance between the vent and the outside corner is 6" (15cm) with AstroCap termination cap or 12" (30cm) with Dura-Vent termination cap. See "F" on the diagram on page 10.
Note: To make the installation more aesthetically pleasing, we recommend framing out a square to mount the terminal to.
Note: A 2-1/2" (64mm) horizontal top and
1-1/2" (38mm) horizontal sides & bottom clearance around the liner must be maintained except that only a 1" (25mm) clearance is needed at the termination end. We recommend framing a 10"(254mm) x 10"(254mm)
(inside dimensions) hole to give structural rigidity for mounting the termination.
Minimum and Maximum Vent Clearances
5) Slip the assembled liner and termination assembly through the thimble making sure the termination cap faces up (there are markings on the cap that show which way is up). This will position the termination cap with proper down slope for draining water.
Fasten the cap to the outer wall with the 4 supplied screws.
9) Apply a bead of silicone between the thimble and termination and around the outer edge of the terminal at the wall in order to keep the water out.
Note: If installing termination on a siding covered wall, furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.
2) Level the fi replace and fasten it to the framing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
6) Pull the centre 4"(100mm) liner and outer
6-7/8"(175mm) liner out enough to slip over the fl ue collars of the fi replace.
7) Apply Mill Pac over the fi replace inner collar and slip the 4"(100mm) liner down over it and attach with 3 supplied screws.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice buildup may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent termination area.
8) Do the same with the 6-7/8"(175mm) liner.
3) Assemble the vent assembly by applying
Mill Pac to the 4"(100mm) inner collar of the termination and slipping the 4"(100mm) liner over it at least 1-3/8" (35mm). Fasten with the 3 screws (drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Apply Mill Pac or high temperature silicone to the 6-7/8"(175mm) fl ex pipe and slip it over the 6-7/8" outer collar of the vent terminal at least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with the 3 screws.
4) Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble and securely fasten the one with the tabs to the outside wall making sure that the tabs are on top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble half to the inside wall. The thimble halves slip inside each other and can be adjusted for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 walls. The liners must slip over the collars a minimum of 1-3/8".

INSTALLATION
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS
Install the vent system according to the manufacturer's instructions included with the components.
b) Horizontal runs of vent must be supported every three feet. Wall straps are available for this purpose.
Diagram 2a
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in the way when the venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the location of the unit. Rough in the gas preferably on the right side of the unit and the electrical (junction block is on the left side) on the left.
2) Direct Vent pipe and fi ttings are designed with special twist-lock connections to connect the venting system to the appliance fl ue outlet. A twist-lock appliance adaptor is an available option that must be used in conjunction with the Simpson Dura-Vent
Direct Vent GS system.
3) Put a bead of silicone inside the outer section of the adapter and a bead of Stove
Mate on the inner collar. Slip the adapter over the existing inner and outer fl ue collar and fasten to the outer collar only with the
3 supplied screws (drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Level the fi replace and fasten it to the framing using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
4) Assemble the desired combination of pipe and elbows to the appliance adaptor and twist-lock for a solid connection.
Note:
a) Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations, located on the female ends of pipes and fi ttings, are designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fi ttings, by orienting the four pipe indentations so they match and slide in to the four entry slots on the male ends, Dia. 1. Push the pipe sections completely together, then twist-lock one section clockwise approximately one-quarter turn, until the two sections are fully locked. The female locking lugs will not be visible from the outside, on the Black Pipe or fi ttings. They may be located by examining the inside of the female ends.
5) Mark the wall for a 10" x 10" square hole.
The center of the square hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe.
Cut and frame the 10 inch square hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of non-combustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7"(178mm) diameter (7-1/2"(191mm) dia. for fl ex) hole is acceptable.
Note:
a) The horizontal run of vent must be level, or have a 1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot of run towards the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a fi re.
Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed below grade, i.e. basement application, proper drainage must be provided to prevent water from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer to
Dura-Vent Installation instructions for details. Do not attempt to enclose the
Snorkel within the wall, or any other type of enclosure.
b) The location of the horizontal vent termination on an exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes, and must not be blocked or obstructed. For
External Vent Terminal Locations, see diagram on page 9.
6) The arrow on the vent cap should
be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2" clearances to combustible materials are maintained (Dia. 3). Install the termination cap. AstroCap TM or Dura-Vent Horizontal
Termination Cap may be used.
c) Snorkel Terminations:
For installations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of the building, 14-inch and 36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations and the Riser Vent as shown in Dia. 2 &
2a are available. Follow the same installation procedures as used for standard
Horizontal Termination. NEVER install the snorkel upside down.
Diagram 3
The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
Diagram 1
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high temperature silicone sealant to outer pipe on every twist-lock joint.
*As specifi ed in CGA B149 Installation Code.
Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Regency P33-3 Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
Diagram 2
Note: If installing termination on a siding covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding.
7) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent pipe to the vent termination, slide the Wall
Thimble (Part # 620-926) over the vent pipe.
8) Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards the wall carefully inserting the vent
INSTALLATION pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extends into the vent cap suffi cient distance so as to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap 3 sheet metal screws.
4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist-locked position and sealed.
Diagram 4
9) Install wall thimble in the center of the
10" square and attach with wood screws
(Diagram 4).
Diagram 4
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high temperature silicone sealant to outer pipe on every twist-lock joint.
5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of suffi cient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles of 1-1/2". Slip the fl ashing under the shingles (shingles should overlap half the fl ashing) as per Diagram 3.

VERTICAL
TERMINATION
8) Install the vertical termination cap by twistlocking it.
1) Maintain the 1-1/2" clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check pages 13-17 for the maximum vertical rise of the venting system and the maximum horizontal offset limitations.
2) Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance fl ue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof.
Diagram 1
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the fl oor or ceiling of every level. To install the
Firestop spacer in a fl at ceiling or wall, cut a 10 inch square hole. Frame the hole as shown in Diagram 2 and install the fi restop.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces, which the vent passes through must be enclosed.
GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
Diagram 3: The upper half of the fl ashing is installed under the roofi ng material and not nailed down until the chimney is installed. This allows for small adjustments.
6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
The gas line is brought through the right side of the appliance. The gas valve is situated on the right hand side of the unit and the gas inlet is on the right hand side of the valve.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions, it is important to support the vent pipe every 3 feet, to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose.
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofl ine due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue to add pipe sections through the fl ashing until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum height requirements specifi ed in Dia. 4 or local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height must be increased. A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height may solve the problem.
The gas line connection may be made of rigid pipe, copper pipe or an approved fl ex 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 fl ex connectors use only approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so that gas lines can be easily disconnected for servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and fl ex connectors are usually considered to meet this requirement.
7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of the fl ashing to the roof with roofi ng rails, slide storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution or gas leak detector.
Do not use open fl ame for leak testing.

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 fl at 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 specifi ed on the safety label.

LIGHTING PROCEDURE
Minimum Air Shutter Opening:
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
1) Use the wall switch, thermostat or remote control to turn off the main burner.
CAUTION: Carbon will be produced if air shutter is closed too much.
IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot, you must fi rst release the tension springs below the door.
2) Turn the main gas control clockwise to the
"OFF" position to turn off the pilot.
3) Turn off all electric power to appliance if service is to be performed.
Air shutter
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure being applied to the control knob, reapply the tension springs to the door. The unit must
not be operated with the tension springs unattached.
IMPORTANT: Gas cock knob cannot be turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is partially depressed.
FIRST FIRE
The fi rst fi re in your stove is part of the paint curing process. To ensure that the paint is properly cured, it is recommended that you burn your fi replace for at least four (4) hours the fi rst time you use it with the fan on. wire
1) Turn burner OFF using "ON/OFF" switch.
2) Turn gas control knob so indicator points to
"OFF" position and allow 5 minutes for any gas in the combustion chamber to escape.
When fi rst 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.
3) Turn gas control knob counterclockwise so indicator points to the "PILOT" position.
Depress the gas control knob fully. Depress the igniter button several times until the pilot lights. After approximately one minute, release the gas control knob. The pilot fl ame should continue to burn. If the pilot does not remain lit, repeat operation allowing a longer period before releasing gas control knob.
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.
Adjustment Wire: push to close or pull to open aeration cap
Closed - Tall yellow
Open - Short blue
Note: Any damage due to carboning resulting from improperly setting the aeration controls is NOT covered under warranty.
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only be performed by an authorized Regency
Installer at the time of installation or service.

MAINTENANCE
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 fi rebox 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 fi reboxes.
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 fl ame 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.
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the gas 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 appliance and door with a damp cloth (never when unit is hot). Never use an abrasive cleaner. The glass should be cleaned with a gas fi replace glass cleaner.
The glass should be cleaned when it starts looking cloudy.
3) Check for evidences of excessive condensation, 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 excessive lateral runs, too many elbows, and exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections or fi ttings have been disturbed, and consequently loosened. Also check mechanical supports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers' tape for rigidity.
GOLD-PLATED or
BRASS LOUVERS/TRIM
3) The heater is fi nished in a heat resistant paint and should only be refi nished with heat resistant paint. Regency uses StoveBright
Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
4) 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.
The 24 carat gold-plated or brass fi nish on the louvers and trim 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.
LOG REPLACEMENT
5) 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.
Note: Never operate the appliance without the glass properly secured in place.
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool before opening door and 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 diagrams under Log
Installation.
6) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace nay part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may create carbon build-up and will severely alter the unit's performance which is not covered under warranty.
7) Verify operation after servicing.
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.
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 components should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a fl ashlight down the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other foreign material.
Regency P33-3 Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
MAINTENANCE
THERMOPILE/
THERMOCOUPLE
1) Open the bottom louvers.
2) Loosen the thermocouple or thermopile with a 7/16" wrench.
3) Disconnect thermocouple by loosening nut from the valve with a 9mm wrench. Disconnect thermopile by loosening 2 screws marked TP on the valve.
4) Drop the thermocouple or thermopile down from the bracket and pull it out of the unit.
Flush Glass Replacement
Remove the fl ush door front. Remove the 4 glass clips from each corner. Slide in the new replacement glass. Push the 4 glass clips back onto the frame. The glass must have gasket- ing around it.
Bay Glass Replacement
1) Remove the door from the unit and place on a soft surface to prevent scratching.
2) Remove the nuts holding the glass clips in place and remove.
3) Replace the glass. The glass must have gasketing around it.
5) Reverse the previous steps, replace the glass clips and fasten with the nuts but do not over tighten, as this can break the glass.
6) Replace door on the stove and check the seal.
5) Reinstall the new ones in reverse order.

Flush Front (Part # 936-155).
DOOR GLASS
Your Regency stove is supplied with high temperature, 5 mm Neoceram ceramic glass that will withstand the highest heat that your unit will produce. If your glass requires cleaning, we recommend using an approved glass cleaner available at all authorized dealers. Do not use abrasive materials. Do not clean the glass when hot.
In the event that you break your glass by impact, purchase your replacement from an authorized
Regency dealer only, and follow our step-by-step instructions for replacement.
