Al

ways check for gas leaks with a mild soap

and water solution. Do not use an open
flame
for leak testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured
screw type pressure test point, therefore it is
not necessary to provide a 1/8" test point up
stream of the control.

FOR U.S.A Installations

consult the current National

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1

GAS LINE INSTALLATION

When purging gas line, the front glass must
be removed.

The gas pipeline can be brought in through the rear of the
fireplace as well as the bottom. Knockouts are provided on
the bottom behind the valve to allow for the gas pipe
installation and testing of any gas connection.

It is most

convenient to bring the gas line in from the rear right
side of the valve, as this allows fan installation or
removal without disconnecting the gas line.

The gas line connection can be made with
properly tinned 3/8" copper tubing, 3/8" rigid
pipe or an approved flex connector. Since
some municipalities have some additional
local codes, it is always best to consult your
local authority and the CAN/CGA- B149 (.1 or
.2) installation code.

The installation of your Fireplace must
conform with local codes, or in the absence
of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 latest edition, or CAN 1 B1-149.1
and .2 Installation Code. (EXCEPTION: Do
not derate this appliance for elevations up to
4,500 ft (1,370m). Maintain the manifold
pressure at 3.5 inches W.C. for Natural Gas
and 10 inches W.C. for LP gas.)
