Regency U28-2/U43-3 ULTIMATE Freestanding Gas Stove

TEST FOR FLUE 

SPILLAGE

A  "spillage"  test  must  be  made  before  the 

installed unit is left with the customer. Follow 

the procedure below:

1)

  Start all exhaust fans in the home and any 

other gas appliances. Then close all doors 

and windows.

2)

  Light the unit and set controls to maximum.

3)

  After five minutes, test that there is a "pull" 

on  the  flue  by  placing  a  smoke  match, 

cigarette or similar device which gives off 

smoke, on the edge of the draft hood. See 

diagrams.

The thermally activated safety 

switch must be manually reset 

before first startup.

U28: LOUVER 

INSTALLATION

1) 

Attach the top & bottom louvers to the side 

stove panel using 2 screws per side.

FRONT DOOR 

INSTALLATION

(packaged separately)

1)

  Open the two side panels.

2)

  Slide the door onto the two hinge pins making 

sure the two pieces are flush together.  See 

diagram 1.

3)

  Close the door. The latch plate must be 

centered around the alignment pin.  See 

diagram 2.  If the latch plate interferes with 

the corner of the stove you may want to 

angle the plate slightly so the door closes 

easier.

4)

  The latches should already be at the proper 

setting.  If they are too hard or too easy 

to close, you may want to adjust them by 

loosening the latch catch.  See diagram 3.

INSTALLATION

5)

  Remove the blue plastic protective coating 

from the glass. 

6)

  Test the seal around the door by placing 

a piece of paper between the unit and the 

door, close the door and try to pull the paper 

out. If it slips out easily, then the door is not 

properly sealed. Tighten or loosen the latch.  

See diagram 3.

Note:  The door latch may require adjust-

ment as the door gasket material 

compresses  after  a  few  fires  and 

after glass replacement. Turn the 

latch catch inward or outward to 

loosen or tighten.

The smoke should 

be drawn into the 

draft hood. If the 

smoke is not drawn 

into the draft hood, 

turn the unit off and 

check for the cause 

of lack of draft.

Note:  If the flue is blocked or has a strong 

reverse flow, the thermally actuated safety 

switch mounted in the draft hood will auto-

matically shut off the gas supply within about 

10 minutes.  If the heater turns off because 

of this during the spillage test, check for the 

cause of the lack of draft.
