IMPORTANT

PRE-INSTALLATION

Qualified installation personnel, individuals, firms, corporations, and companies are responsible for:

 

6

The installation or replacement of the gas piping and connection, installation, repair, or servicing of 

the equipment. Qualified installation personnel must be experienced in such work, familiar with all 

precautions required, and have complied with all requirements of state or local authorities having 

jurisdiction. Reference National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 or latest edition or ANSI Z223.1 or latest 

edition, Section 1.4.

 

6

The installation of electrical wiring from the electric meter, main control box, or service outlet to 

the appliance. Qualified installation personnel must be experienced in such work, familiar with all 

precautions required, and have complied with all requirements of state or local authorities having 

jurisdiction. Reference National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or latest edition. In Canada, Canadian 

Electrical Code Pan I (Std. 22.1 or latest).

 

6

The installation of gas heated units in Canada. Qualified installation personnel should comply with the 

Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, (CAN-I-B 149.1 and B-149.2) and any 

local codes or approvals.

 

6

The installation of washers equipped with casters. These washers shall be made with a connector that 

complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z2 1.69 or latest, and a 

quick-connect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for use with gas 

fuel, ANSI Z2 1.41 or latest.

Douglas Machines Corp. highly discourages the use of tankless or demand water heating units as 

a hot water supply for our machines. They typically are not properly sized nor can they meet the 

demand required by our machines.

Note: A fixed restraint must be provided if casters are used in conjunction with a flexible connector for movable 

appliances. This restraint must secure the washer to a non-movable surface to eliminate stress on the 

connector. If the washer is moved, the restraint must be reconnected after the washer is returned to its normal 

position.
