F2450M Regency Freestanding Woodstove

installation

1.  Please read this entire manual before you install 

and use your new woodstove. Failure to follow 
instructions  may  result  in  property  damage, 
bodily injury or even death. Be aware that local 
Codes  and  Regulations  may  override  some 
items  in  this  manual.  Check  with  your  local 
inspector.

2.  Select a position for your Regency Stove. Consult 

the  minimum  clearance  chart  for  your  model 
and set the stove in place. For installation use 
listed double wall connector systems only.

3.  To insure vertical alignment, suspend a plumb 

bob from the ceiling over the exact center of 
your stove flue and mark a spot on the ceiling 
to indicate the center of the chimney.

4.  Check that the area above the ceiling is clear 

for cutting. Re-confirm the clearance from the 
stove to combustibles to ensure that they are 
within the prescribed limits.

5.  This  woodstove  must  be  connected  to  a  UL 

103 HT (ULC S629) listed chimney or a code 
approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.

 
 

Space heater is to be connected to a factory 
built  chimney  conforming  to  CAN/ULC-5629 
standard for 650C factory built chimneys. The 
chimney requirement is 6", refer to appropriate 
sections in this manual for specifics.

6.  Install  chimney  according  to  chimney  manu-

facturers instructions. The performance of your 
woodstove is governed to a very large part by 
the chimney system. Too short a chimney can 
cause difficult start-up, dirty glass, back smok-
ing when door is open, and even reduced heat 
output.

       Too tall a chimney may prompt excessive draft 

which can result in very short burn times and 
excessive heat output. The use of an inexpensive 
flue pipe damper may be helpful in reducing 
excessive draft.

 CAUTION

:  The chimney should be the same 

size as the 6" flue outlet on the stove. The chim-
ney must be listed as suitable for use with solid 
fuels. For other types of chimneys check with 
your local building code officials. Do not confuse 
a chimney with a type “B” Venting System used 
for gas appliances as suitable for a wood burning 
appliance. For Mobile Home installations refer 
to that section within this manual.

7.

 

Mark the location of the pedestal base or legs 
on  the  floor,  then  move  the  stove  aside  and 
mark the position of the floor protector.

8.  The floor protector must be of non-combustible 

material and must extend 16" (406mm) (USA 
)in front of the door opening and 8" (203mm) 
to the sides and rear of the unit.  Some areas 
may require a larger size floor protector.  See 
your local inspector.  For outside air installation 
refer to Mobile Home installation instructions 
within this manual.

11. For residential installations 6" (single wall OK)

double wall chimney, the chimney connector 
must be at least 24 gauge steel. Do not use 
galvanized pipe. For Mobile Home installation 
refer to the Mobile Home installation instructions 
within this manual.

12. 

DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIM-
NEY SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

13. A chimney connector cannot pass through an 

attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed 
space,  or  a  floor,  ceiling,  wall  or  partition  of 
combustible  construction.  In  Canada,  if  pas-
sage through a wall, or partition of combustible 
construction  is  desired,  the  installation  shall 
conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code 
for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equip-
ment.

14.

 

Your Regency Woodstove is not to be con-
nected to any air distribution duct.

CAUTION: 

Do not alter or makeshift chimney or install.
Install as per Manual.

NOTE:  In Canada, floor protection 

must extend 18" (450mm) 
to the front and 8" (203mm) 
to each side and back of the 
stove.

WHEN THIS ROOM HEATER IS NOT PROP-
ERLY INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY 
RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, 
FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUC-
TIONS. CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OR 
FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS 
AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIRE-
MENTS IN YOUR AREA.

Modular Installation Options

WARNING: ONLY USE SPECIFIED COMPONENTS.
The following items are required when assembling your Regency Stove. F2450M unit - the Rear Heat Deflector is supplied with the stove, but if you choose 
not to use it you must use the Airmate instead 

 

Modular Part

See the Minimum Clearance to Combustible Materials chart in the Installation section of this manual

F2450M Airmate OR

Rear Heat Deflector

Convection heat with Airmate vs. Radiant Heat with Rear Heat Deflector. The Airmate pushes heat forward out into the 

room, the Rear Heat Deflector deflects the heat upward. Refer to the Installation sections within this manual.

OPTIONS : 
Blower/ Fan

Adding the blower will increase the area heated by the stove, it can move warm air beyond the room where the stove

Ash Drawer Kit

Adding the Ash Drawer Kit makes cleaning ashes out of the stove easier and cleaner (refer to Bottom Shield Ash 

Drawer Kit, Installation section)

Outside Air Kit

Allows outside combustion air to enter firebox

Bottom heat shield  + legs

Used instead of pedestal

Pedestal

Used instead of heat shield and legs

9.  When the floor protection is complete, position 

the stove with the flue collar centered under the 
installed chimney. 

10. In areas with frequent seismic activity, Regency 

recommends that your unit is secured to the 
floor by using the bolt down holes inside the 
pedestal (the same ones used in Mobile Home 
installations).

IMPORTANT: 

During the first few fires, a white film may de-
velop on the glass front as part of the curing 
process. 

The glass should be cleaned 

or 

the film will bake on and become very difficult 
to remove. Use a non-abrasive cleaner and 

NEVER

 clean the glass while it is hot.
