I have run my hampton 3 years and not noticed anything other then they seem to be a little more rough then when I put them in there. How long has yours been running? Is it 24/7?

Running mine 2 seasons only at night and on weekends. i cracked the back brick by throwing in a log too strongly (was going to move it to the floor in the spring after i clean it out good).

Contact your Regency dealer that you got the stove from. Regency uses their own bricks that they want you to use.

Contact a local masonry supply store.
Ask them if they carry "Split Fire Bricks"
Most places like that carry em for less than $2 apiece
If ya gotta cut em, a wet saw helps to keep the dust down...

I have a Regency I1200 insert that is about 5 years old and all the bricks have crumbled. We use it as our primary heat source and have started burning already for the season. I have called ever local woodstove shop in close to me and those that carry Regency don't stock the replacement brick kit (model number 170-960 Complete Brick Set). I did place an order with one of the vendors and they still have not come in and that was a month and a half ago...any leads to get these online?

Thanks!

I use regular fire bricks in my Regency, not Regency's special fire bricks. A Regency dealer told me it's okay and sold them to me. I've read that you can cut the special sizes with a wet saw or grinder, otherwise have someone local cut the custom sized bricks for you.

i just replaced that back brick in the hampton, its easy to find that size.rutland sells them in ace hardware or amazon or northern tool. i had gone to the mason supply in the past,and they have them and they where so cheap the guy just gave me one. rutland was the better fit though.

Just replaced all of my fire bricks on my Regency R-14 with split fire bricks from a local masonary/concrete company. 15 bricks, four cuts and only $19. Fireplace store wanted $3.00/brick
