BURNER SYSTEM LOCATION
CONNECTING GAS SUPPLY TO BURNER PAN AND LOG GRATE PLACEMENT
The Burner system should be located towards the back and centred in the combustion chamber of the
fireplace. The burner system should be centred from left to right, with about an inch of space on either side.
1. Place burner system in proper location.
2. Attach brass 3/8” to 1/2” gas inlet fitting to the 1/2” gas supply stub.
3. Carefully bend the flared tubing as needed to make the connection between the burner assembly and the
gas inlet fitting.
4. Next attach the flared tubing to the burner assembly first, then to the gas inlet fitting.
- Avoid kinking the flared tubing while bending. If tubing must be cut, use a tube cutter. Flare the cut end of
the tube with a flaring tube.
5. Be certain all connections are tight and use pipe compound on all male threads to seal joints.
NOTE: The pipe compound must be resistant to the action of L.P. Gas. Test all connections with a soapy
water solution with gas supply turned on. If bubbles appear on any connection, re-tighten and reset. Once it
is determined there are no leaks whatsoever, turn off gas supply and move to next assembly step.
