VENTING INTRODUCTION  
The HZ54 uses the "balanced 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.  
Note: These ue pipes must not be connected to any other  
appliance.  
Thegasapplianceandventsystemmustbeventeddirectlytotheoutside  
ofthebuilding,andneverbeattachedtoachimneyservingaseparatesolid  
fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use  
it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.

Note: If installing termination on a vinyl  
siding covered wall, a vinyl siding

to ensure that the termination is not  
recessed into the siding.  
(Rigid Vent Systems)  
Diagram 1  
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  
restop 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.  
Horizontal runs of vent must be supported  
every 3 feet (0.9meter). Wall straps are  
available for this purpose.  
6) 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-  
line 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 center line requirements.  
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  
thewaywhentheventingsystemisattached.  
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.  
If the wall being penetrated is constructed of  
non-combustiblematerial,i.e.masonryblock  
or concrete, an 8" (203mm) diameter hole  
is acceptable.

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 re.

mark wall accordingly. Cut an 11"(279mm)  
hole in the wall (inside dimension).  
6) Pull the centre 5"(127mm) liner and outer  
8"(203mm) liner out enough to slip over  
the ue collars of the replace. (You may  
wish to cut the liner shorter to make it more  
workable.) Do not bend liner more than 90o.  
The liners must slip over the collars a  
minimum of 1-3/8".  
7) Apply Mill Pac over the replace inner collar

contact your Regency® dealer for  
further instructions.  
Since some municipalities have additional  
local codes it is always best to consult with  
your local authorities and the CAN/CGA B149  
installation code.  
Incorrect ame pattern will have small,  
probably yellow ames, 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.  
GAS PIPE PRESSURE  
TESTING  
When using copper or ex connectors use only  
approved ttings. Always provide a union so  
that gas lines can be easily disconnected for  
servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and ex  
connectors are usually considered to meet this  
requirement.  
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 ame for leak  
testing.  
Note: To properly check gas pressure, both  
inlet and manifold pressures should  
be checked using the valve pressure  
ports on the valve.

INSTALLATION  
OPTIONAL STAINLESS STEEL  
REFLECTIVE PANEL INSTALLATION  
Before you start:  
Stainless panels must be inspected for scratches and dimples prior to installation. All claims to be recorded at this time. Claims for  
damage after installation will not receive consideration.  
To protect the finish during installation and handling - cotton gloves MUST be worn at all times while handling the panels (even  
when removing protective coating).  
Stainless panels will discolor a little during normal operation. This is normal and should not be considered a defect.  
All hand and finger marks MUST be cleaned off with a soft cloth and a stainless steel cleaner. Most stainless steel cleaners leave a  
film/residue on the surface of the panels. Use an ammonia based cleaner (ie. glass cleaner) to remove this film before applying heat to  
the unit. Failure to do this will result in burn stain on panels which you will be unable to remove. This is not a warranty item.  
1) Position the left side panel in place and fit the bottom tab into the slot  
at the bottom of the firebox as shown below. Repeat for right side  
panel.  
Right side panel in position  
2) Fit the back panel into position by clearing the pilot shield and fit the  
tabs on the bottom left and right side of the back panel into the slots  
at the base of the firebox.

Unit Body/Firebox:  
When rst operated, the unit will release an  
odour caused by the curing of the paint and the  
burning off of any oils remaining from manufac-  
turing. Smoke detectors in the house may go off  
at this time. Open a few windows to ventilate  
the room for a couple of hours. The glass may  
require cleaning.
