CREOSOTE
When wood is burned slowly, it produces
tar and other organic vapours, which when
combined with moisture, form creosote. The
creosote vapours condense in the relatively
cool chimney fl ue of a slow burning fi re. As a
result, creosote residue accumulates on the fl ue
lining. When ignited, this creosote can result
in an extremely hot fi re.

Ways to Prevent and Keep Unit
Free of Creosote
1) Burn stove with the draft control wide open
for about 10-15 minutes every morning
during burning season.

2) Burn stove with draft control wide open for
about 10 - 15 minutes every time you apply
fresh wood. This allows the wood to achieve
the charcoal stage faster and burns up any
unburned gas vapours which might other-
wise be deposited within the system.

WOOD STORAGE
Store wood under cover, such as in a shed, or
covered with a tarp, plastic, tar paper, sheets
of scrap plywood, etc., as uncovered wood can
absorb water from rain or snow, delaying the
seasoning process.

5) The chimney and chimney connector should
be inspected at least once every two months
during the heating season to determine is a
creosote buildup has occured.

MAINTENANCE OF
GOLD-PLATED DOORS
The gold electroplated fi nish on the door requires
little maintenance, and need only be cleaned
with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasive ma-
terials or chemical cleaners, as they may harm
the fi nish and void the warranty.

LATCH ADJUSTMENT
The door latch may require adjustment as the
door gasket material compresses after a few
fi res. Removal of the spacer washer, shown
in the diagram below, will allow the latch to be
moved closer to the door frame, causing a tighter
seal. Remove and replace the nuts, washer and
spacer as shown.

DOOR GASKET
If the door gasket requires replacement 7/8" (22mm)
diameter material must be used. Regency uses
AMATEX # 10-863KR 7/8" dia. gasket (Part
#846-570). A proper high temperature gasket
adhesive is required. See your Regency
