OPTIONAL GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
Gas line hook up should be done by your supplier
or a qualified service person.
Note
: Before you proceed, make sure your gas
supply is turned off.
Use only a 1/2" black iron pipe and appropriate
fittings.
1. Remove knockout indentation on refractory or
firebrick wall located above the refractory hearth
floor. The knockout indentation must be firmly
tapped with any solid object such as a 1/2" dowel
until it is released. Remove fragmented portions
of refractory (see Figure 19).
2. Remove gas line cover plate located on either
side of fireplace and pull out insulation from
gas line conduit sleeve. Save insulation for
reuse. Replace screws.
3. Run a 1/2" black iron gas line into the fireplace
through the rear at gas line conduit sleeve (if
using a raised platform, add height). Provide
sufficient gas line into fireplace chamber for
fitting connection (see Figure 20, page 12).
Note
: Secure incoming gas line to wood
framing to provide rigidity for threaded end.
