General Specifications for Piping
Note - Contact your local municipality for building
codes regulating outdoor gas barbecue installa-
tions. In absence of Local Codes, you must con-
firm to the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1. WE REC-
OMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY
A PROFESSIONAL.
Some of the following are general requirements taken
from ANISI Z223.1 latest edition for complete specifi-
cations.

This barbecue is designed to operate at 7 inches of

water column pressure (.2526 psi).

A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors,

immediately ahead of the quick disconnect.

An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should

be installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible
location near the supply line

The quick disconnect connects to a 3/8 inch NPT

thread from the gas source. The quick disconnect
fitting is a hand-operated device that automatically
shuts OFF the flow of gas from the source when the
barbecue is disconnected

The quick disconnect fitting can be installed horizon-

tally, or pointing downward. Installing the fitting with the
open end pointing upward can result in collecting
water and debris.

The dust covers (supplied plastic plugs) help keep

the open ends of the quick disconnect fitting clean
while disconnected.

Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to

the action of natural gas when connections are made.

The outdoor connector must be firmly attached to

rigid, permanent construction.

WARNING: Do not route the 12 foot hose under

a deck. The hose must be visible.
