INSTALLATION
GAS CONNECTIONS
Your oven installation must conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes it must comply with
National Codes.
The type of gas the oven is equipped for is stamped on the rating plate. Connect ovens marked “NAT”
only to natural gas supplies. Connect ovens marked “LP” only to propane gas supplies.
Before connecting oven the gas supply should be inspected by your gas supplier or local authorities to
insure sufficient gas flow, pressure and meter size.
If the gas supply line is greater than 1/2 PSI [3.45 kPa] a step-down regulator is required.
The gas inlet connection for all ovens is 3/4” NPT.
Each oven deck requires its own gas shut-off that is end-user supplied.
All pipe joints must be sealed with pipe thread sealant rated for use with LP gas supplies.
Before use all pipe joints must be inspected for leaks. Use a soap and water solution or a product ex-
pressly made for this purpose. Do NOT use matches, candles or flames to check for leaks as these
methods are extremely dangerous.
The oven and its shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure
testing in excess of 1/2 PSI [3.45 kPa].
The oven must be isolated from the gas supply by manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing at
levels equal or less than 1/2 PSI [3.45 kPa].
Only Natural Gas equipped models are available in European Community Countries
In MASSECHUSETTS all gas products must be installed by a Massachusetts licensed plumber or gas
