Regency Z2510 WarmHearth8
HEARTH EXTENSION
Note: When the unit is raised 4 inches above
the fl oor the Regency Hearth Extension (Part#
000-910) is not required. If you plan to raise
the fi replace and hearth extension, build the
platform assembly then position fi replace and
hearth extension on top. If you are not raising
the unit, check that you will have suffi cient clear-
ance under the bottom louver for your fi nishing
material on top of the hearth extension, i.e. tiles,
concrete board, etc.
1) Insert the metal safety strip, packaged with
the fi replace beneath the fi replace as il-
lustrated below. The safety strip should be
tacked down to prevent possible shifting and
should overlap for continual coverage of the
fl oor.
Note: A safety strip is not required when the
fi replace rests on a non-combustible
surface.
Note: Install the hearth extension only as
illustrated.
The safety strip should extend 2 in. (51 mm)
in front and on the sides of the fi replace.
In the event a wooden support is used to
elevate the fi replace above the fl oor, a “Z”
type safety strip should be fabricated from
20 gauge galvanized sheet steel and used
to protect the front surface of the wood
INSTALLATION
FRAMING DETAILS
Note: Ducting is tested at 1 in. clearance to framing for the fi rst 6 feet and 1/2 in. thereafter
and no stand-offs are required.
LOCATION OF
FIREPLACE
Carefully select the proper location for heat
circulation, aesthetics, chimney obstructions
and clearance to side wall(s). With proper
pre-planning, a slight adjustment of a few inches
can save considerable time and expense later
during construction and assembly.
Carefully consider the position of the fi replace
opening with respect to the location of adjacent
or nearby stairwells, bath or kitchen exhaust
fans and/or return air registers for forced air
furnaces/air conditioners that could cause a
smoking fi replace condition if the house is
tightly insulated.
Building Structures Cannot
Encroach on Chase
Note: If the fi replace is being cantilevered
through an outside wall, the entire
enclosure (fl oor, wall and false ceil-
ing) up to the fi rst ceiling level must
be completely insulated and vapor
sealed and sheathed, to avoid transfer
of cold air through the fi replace when
not in use.
