INTRODUCTION
In order to maintain a clean face; the L676S
allows for a 1/8” in overlap of finishing material,
such as rock or tile, on both the left and right
hand sides of the unit (top and bottom sides do
not allow for an overlap), this overlap must not
be exceeded or the glass door will no longer
open properly.
The L676S uses the "balanced flue" technology
Co Axial system. The inner liner vents products
of combustion to the outside while the outer liner
drawsoutsidecombustionairintothecombustion
chamber thereby eliminating the need to use
heated room air for combustion and losing warm
room air up the chimney.
Non-combustiblewallboardisinstalleduptothe
flanges on all sides of the unit. When installing
any additional facing material use the Finishing
Template (included with the unit) to ensure
that the finishing material does not exceed the
allowable overlap.
Note: Thesefluepipesmustnotbeconnected
to any other appliance.
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.

6) Mark the wall for a 11" x 11" (279mm x
279mm) square hole. The center of the
squareholeshouldlineupwiththecenterline
of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 11
inch (279mm) square hole in the exterior
wall where the vent will be terminated. See
diagram 2 for centerline requirements.
(Rigid Vent Systems)
Atopclearanceof3"(76mm)andside&bottom
clearance of 2"(51mm) must be maintained;
except when passing through a wall, ceil-
ing, or at the termination where the use of a
firestop or wall thimble reduces the required
clearance to 1-1/2" (38mm). We recommend
framing a 11"(279mm) x 11"(279mm) (inside
dimensions) hole to give structural rigidity
for mounting the termination.
If the wall being penetrated is constructed of
non-combustiblematerial,i.e.masonryblock
or concrete, an 8" (203mm) diameter hole
is acceptable.
Install the vent system according to the
manufacturer's instructions included with the
components.
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to
determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in

1 flowing around the thermopile, 1 around
the thermocouple and 1 flowing across the
burner (it does not have to be touching the
burner).
GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
Since some municipalities have additional
local codes it is always best to consult with
your local authorities and the CAN/CGA B149
installation code.
Note: Ifyouhaveanincorrectflamepattern,
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.
For USA installations follow local codes and/
or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
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.
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.
IMPORTANT: Always check for gas leaks
with a soap and water solution or gas leak
detector. Do not use open flame for leak
testing.

COPY OF LIGHTING PLATE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING
This appliance must be installed in accordance with local codes, if any; if none, follow the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes,
CSA B149.1. (Australia: AS5601-2004, New Zealand: NZS 5261)
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion
may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life. Improper
installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury
or property damage. Refer to the owner’s information manual provided with
this appliance. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified
installer, service agency or gas supplier.
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds from
yourgasappliance.Thisisperfectlynormaldueto
the fact that there are various gauges and types
of steel used within your appliance.Listed below
are some examples. All are normal operating
soundsandshouldnotbeconsideredasdefects
in your appliance.
A) This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these
Burner Tray:
instructions exactly.
The burner tray is positioned directly under the
burner tube and is made of a different gauge
material from the rest of the firebox 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 fireboxes.
B) BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor
because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
- Do not try to light any appliance.
- Do not touch any electric switch, do not use any phone in your building.
- Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbours phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.
- If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
C) Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not
push in or turn by hand, don’t try to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Forced or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas
control which has been under water.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very
slight "whisper" sound.
E) This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for
adequate combustion and ventilation air.
Gas Control Valve:
CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Do not touch. Severe Burns may result. Due
to high surface temperatures keep children, clothing and furniture, gasoline and
otherliquidshavingflammablevaporsaway.Keepburnerandcontrolcompartment
clean. See installation and operating instructions accompanying appliance.
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.
Unit Body/Firebox:
