MANTELS  
Because of the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel clearances from louver are shown  
in the diagram below.  
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with a non-combustible  
board.  
This drawing is to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6  
inches)

INSTALLATION  
FRAMING & FINISHING  
1) Determine the total thickness of facing material (eg. drywall plus  
ceramic tiles) to allow the finished surface to be flush with the front  
of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to  
1-1/4" (32mm) thick.  
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material. The framed  
opening for the assembled kit is 47-1/2" high x 48-1/2" wide x 26-1/4"  
deep (1207mm H x 1232mm W x 667mm D). See Diagram 1. See  
important note below when installing with any veritical venting off of  
the top.  
Diagram 1  
Note: 43" (1092mm) is the minimum height for flex termination and  
Simpson Dura-Vent terminations.  
3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as  
the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local  
installation codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)  
4) The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. The  
clearanceontopoftheunitfromthetopstandoffsis0"socombustible  
building materials can be laid directly on top of the standoffs. You  
mustmaintainclearancesfromtheventtocombustiblematerials:See  
"Clearances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the  
side and back standoffs and the stove base.  
The HeatWave Duct Kit has different  
clearance and framing requirements,  
check the HeatWave manual for details.  
IMPORTANT  
When installing the unit with any vertical venting off the top of the  
unit as shown, the minimum framing depth changes accordingly.

VENTING  
INTRODUCTION  
The P48-2 uses the "balanced flue" technology  
CoAxial 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  
needtouseheatedroomairforcombustionand  
losing warm room air up the chimney.  
Note: These flue pipes must not be  
connected 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.  
Eachdirectventgasappliancemustuseit'sown  
separate vent system. Common vent systems  
are prohibited.

INSTALLATION  
SIMPSON DURA-VENT VENTING  
Horizontal or Vertical Terminations  
The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent System offers a complete line of component parts for installation of both horizontal and vertical installations. Many  
items are offered in decorative black, as well as galvanized finish. We recommend using the galvanized finish for installation with the P48-2.  
The minimum components required for a basic  
horizontal termination are:

1
Horizontal Termination Cap  
45o Elbow  
Flue Adaptor  
Wall Thimble  
Length of pipe to suit wall thickness  
(see chart)  
Wall thickness is measured from the back  
standoffs to the inside mounting surface of  
termination cap. For siding other than vinyl  
furring strips may be used, instead of the vinyl  
siding standoff, to create a level surface to  
mount the vent terminal. The Terminal must  
not be recessed into siding. Measure the wall  
thickness including furring strips.  
If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must  
be used with vinyl siding), measure to outside  
surface of wall without siding and add 2  
inches.

INSTALLATION  
Note: For best results and optimum  
performance with each approved  
venting system, it is highly  
recommended to apply “Mill-Pac”  
sealant (supplied) to every inner  
pipe connection. Failure to do so  
mayresultindraftingorperformance

Silicone (red RTV) is optional.  
UNIT INSTALLATION  
WITH HORIZONTAL  
TERMINATION  
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 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.  
b) Horizontal runs of vent must be  
supported every 3 feet (0.9meter). Wall  
straps are available for this purpose.  
5) Mark the wall for a 11" x 11" (279mm x  
279mm) square hole. The center of the  
square hole should line up with the center-  
lineofthehorizontalpipe.Cutandframethe  
11inch (279mm)squareholeintheexterior  
wall where the vent will be terminated.

twist-lock appliance adaptor is an available  
option that must be used in conjunction with  
the Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent GS  
system. Install the adaptor after the unit is  
set in its desired location otherwise the unit  
will not fit through the  
If the wall being penetrated is constructed  
of non-combustible material, i.e. masonry  
block or concrete, a 8" (203mm) diameter  
hole is acceptable.  
7) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent  
pipe to the vent termination, slide the Wall  
Thimble (Part # 1247) over the vent pipe.  
8) Slide the appliance and vent assembly  
towards the wall carefully inserting the  
vent pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is  
important that the vent pipe extends into the  
vent cap sufficient distance so as to result  
in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches  
(32mm).Securetheconnectionbetweenthe  
vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the  
two sheet metal strips extending from the  
vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the  
vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws  
provided to connect the strips to the pipe  
section. See Diagram 6.  
36-5/8" (930mm) high frame opening.  
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 flue collar  
and fasten to the outer collar only with the  
3 supplied screws (drilling pilot holes will  
make this easier). Level the fireplace 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.

9) Install wall thimble in the center of the 11"  
(279mm) square and attach with wood  
screws (Diagram 7).  
6) The arrow on the vent cap should be  
pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/4"(32mm)  
clearances to combustible materials  
are maintained (Diagram 5). Install the  
termination cap.  
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.

NORMAL OPERATING  
SOUNDS OF  
GAS APPLIANCES  
It is possible that you will hear some sounds  
fromyourgasappliance.Thisisperfectlynormal  
due to the fact that there are various gauges  
and types of steel used within your appliance.

Blower:  
Regency® gasappliancesusehightechblowers  
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 and logs and is made of a different  
gauge material from the rest of the firebox and  
body.Therefore,thevaryingthicknessesofsteel  
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.  
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.

Conduct an inspection of the venting system  
semiannually. Recommended areas to inspect  
as follows:  
1) OpentheBottomLouversorGrills. Remove  
1) Alwaysturnoffthegasvalvebeforecleaning.  
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.  
the Top Louver or Grill.  
2) Open and remove door.  
3) Remove log set and embers.  
4) Remove grate and burner.  
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) 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 fireplace glass cleaner.  
The glass should be cleaned when it  
starts looking cloudy.  
5) Disconnect thermocouple by loosening  
nut from the valve with a 9mm wrench.  
Disconnect thermopile by loosening 2  
screws marked TP on the valve.  
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight  
down the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or  
other foreign material.  
6) Remove 2 screws from the pilot assembly  
and pull up far enough to be able to loosen  
the thermocouple or thermopile with a 7/16"  
wrench. NOTE: the pilot line is very fragile,  
use caution when pulling it up.  
7) Drop the thermocouple or thermopile down  
through the extrusion and pull it out of the  
unit.  
3) Check for evidences of excessive  
condensation,suchaswaterdropletsforming  
in the inner liner, and subsequently dripping  
outthejoints,Continuouscondensationcan  
cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and fittings.  
It may be caused by having excessive  
lateral runs, too many elbows, and exterior  
portions of the system being exposed to  
cold weather.  
3) The heater is finished in a heat resistant  
paintandshouldonlyberefinishedwithheat  
resistant paint. Regency® uses StoveBright  
Paint - Metallic Black #6309.  
4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper  
position and condition. Visually check the  
flameoftheburnerperiodically,makingsure  
the flames are steady; not lifting or floating.  
If there is a problem, call a qualified service  
person.  
8) Reinstall the new ones in reverse order.  
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe  
sections or fittings have been disturbed,  
and consequently loosened. Also check  
mechanical supports such as Wall Straps,  
or plumbers' tape for rigidity.  
5) The appliance and venting system must be  
inspected before use, and at least annually,  
byaqualifiedeldserviceperson, toensure  
that the flow of combustion and ventilation  
air is not obstructed.  
GLASS GASKET  
If the glass gasket requires replacement use a  
tadpole glass gasket (Part # 936-155).  
LOG REPLACEMENT  
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.  
GOLD-PLATED  
LOUVERS & TRIM  
The 24 carat gold-plated finish on the louvers  
and trim requires little maintenance, and need  
only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
