INSTALLATION IMPORTANT MESSAGE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS The L390E / HZI390E Gas Inserts must be installed in accordance with these instructions. Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first. Consult the "authority having jurisdiction" to determine the need for a permit prior to starting the installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure this fireplace is installed in compliance with manufacturers instructions and all applicable codes.
INSTALLATION IMPORTANT MESSAGE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS The Regency Gas Insert must be installed in accordance with these instructions. Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first. Consult the building authority having jurisdiction to determine the need for a permit prior to starting the installation. NOTE: Failure to follow the instructions could cause a malfunction of the heater which could result in death, serious bodily injury, and/or property damage.
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION CHECKLIST Before installing vent system ensure that the damper plate is open and secure to prevent the damper plate from falling down and crushing the liner. The Regency Gas Insert is installed as listed. 1) Check all clearances to combustibles, (Refer to sections "Minimum Fireplace Dimensions and Clearances to Combustibles) 2) Make the gas connection. (Refer to section "Gas Connection") 3) Install the two 3" flue liners (intake and exhaust) to the sliding connector plate.
INSTALLATION MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES The clearances listed below are Minimum distances unless otherwise stated: A major cause of fires is failure to maintain required clearances (air space) to combustible materials. It is of the greatest importance that this decorative gas appliance be installed only in accordance with these instructions.
INSTALLATION GAS CONNECTION GAS CONNECTION WARNING: Only persons licensed to work with gas piping may make the necessary gas connections to this appliance. The Air Intake pipe must be attached to the inlet air collar of the termination cap. Part # 948-305 946-529 Description 3" Flex - 35 ft. Co-linear DV Vertical Termination Cap 1) If the appliance is to be installed into an existing chimney system, thoroughly clean the masonry or factory built fireplace.
installation Connecting the Vent Liners flue / vent installation Note: Flue Liner Plate Connector Gasket Intake must not be damaged or removed. Exhaust Liner Care must be taken to ensure that this Gear Clamps gasket remains intact to prevent flue leakage. Vent Connectors 4) Use the Flue Connector Slide Tool to slowly pull the Flue Connector Plate forward as you move the Insert rearward into the Fireplace Chase.
INSTALLATION LEVELLING LEG ADJUSTMENT The L390E / HZI390E inserts are equipped with 4 levelling legs that are accessible while the appliance is in its final installation position. The unit can be adjusted up to 2" (51mm). The faceplate must not be installed to do this adjustment, if installed, remove faceplate. Remove left and right side filler pieces.The rear levelling bolts are located in the back corners of the firebox and can be adjusted using a 7/16" wrench.
INSTALLATION AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT Air Shutters are required to increase or decrease the amount of air that is mixed with the fuel before combustion. This will have an affect on how well the fuel combusts and how the flame physically appears. Low primary air will leave a taller, yellower flame while higher primary air will leave a lower, bluer flame. This setting is largely for appearance, however, not enough primary air may lead to carboning, sooting or a flame that reaches the top of the firebox.
INSTALLATION CONVERSION FROM NG TO LP L390E-2/HZI390E-2 using SIT 885 NOVA Gas Valve THIS CONVERSION MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED GAS FITTER IF IN DOUBT DO NOT DO THIS CONVERSION! WARNING This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service agency in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.
INSTALLATION 6) Ensure the rubber gasket, which is prefitted as part of the Assembly, is properly positioned. Install the new Pressure Regulator using the 2x M4 x .7 screws supplied.
