•

 

All gas connections should be made by a Professional qualified technician and in accordance with local 
codes and ordinances.  The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of  
local codes, with either the national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1,

Always check  the Rating  Plate to make sure the gas  supply  you are hooking up to is the gas type 

the appliance is manufactured for. 

•

 

Check the rating label on the left hand outside of the unit. 

 

 

 

•

 

Do not twist the gas supply hose. 

•

 

Before each use, visually inspect the gas supply hose for cracks, cuts or excessive wear. Replace 

the hose if necessary. Check for gas leaks before each use. 

•

 

Gas Specifications: Be sure that the gas supplied to the appliance conforms to the model you 

purchased. A Natural Gas appliance requires natural gas to operate; an LP appliance requires liquid 

propane gas to operate. 

•

 

Never connect the appliance to an unregulated gas supply line. Appliances operated without a regulator are 

unsafe and will not be serviced until installed properly and safely. Unsafe operation without a gas regulator 

will void the warranty of the appliance. 

•
