GAS LINE HOOK-UP
WARNING: Before you pro-
ceed, make sure your gas supply
is OFF.
WARNING: Gas line hookup
should be done by your gas
supplier or a qualified service
person.
An equipment shutoff valve has been included in
the appliance’s gas supply system. You may con-
sider installing an extra gas shutoff valve outside
the appliance’s enclosure (check with local codes)
where it can be accessed more conveniently with a
key through a wall as shown in Figure 42.
Route a 1/2" NPT black iron gas line towards the
appliance coming in from the left. It is recom-
mended to route the pipe between the stand of
the firebox and the surround of the fireplace (see
Figure 43).
INSTALLATION
Continued
IMPORTANT: The appliance and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing
of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2
psig. (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual equipment shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
(3.5 kPa).
CAUTION: Do not kink flex-
ible gas line.
CAUTION: Compounds used
on threaded joints of gas piping
shall be resistant to the action
of Liquefied Petroleum (LP or
propane), and should be applied
lightly to ensure excess sealant
does not enter the gas line.
1. Install a sediment trap between the incoming
gas line and the gas control valve (see Figure
43). The sediment trap should extend down the
center of the pipe. Refer to your local codes.
