Step 4. The Gas Supply Line
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualified installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality.
(In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation
must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas
fitter).
NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas
supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
NOTE: Consult local building codes to properly size
the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch (13 mm)
hook-up at the unit.
This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch
(13 mm) gas supply line. To install the gas supply line:
• A listed (and Commonweatlh of Massachusetts approved)
1/2 inch (13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a
listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2
inch (13mm) inlet of the control valve. NOTE: If substi-
tuting for these components, please consult local codes
for compliance.
• Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of
the fireplace.
• Insert the gas supply line through the gas line hole and
connect it to the shut-off valve.
• When attaching the pipe, support the control so that the
lines are not bent or torn.
• After the gas line installation is complete, all connec-
tions must be tightened and checked for leaks with a
commercially-available, non-corrosive leak check solu-
tion. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following
testing.
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
