INTRODUCTION

• 

When the appliance is connected to a fixed piping system, 

the installation must conform with local codes, or in the ab-

sence of local codes with the 

National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI 

Z223.1/NFPA 54

, or 

International Fuel Gas Code

.

• 

When installed, the appliance must be electrically grounded 

in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local 

codes with the 

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

, if 

applicable.

• 

Solid fuels shall not be burned in this appliance.

• 

The maximum gas inlet supply pressure is 13" for LP and 

10.5" for NAT.

• 

For appliances for fixed fuel piping system and equipped 

with an appliance gas pressure regulator, the required mani-

fold pressure in inches water column: 10" for LP and 3.5" 

NAT.

• 

For appliances for fixed fuel piping system and equipped 

with an appliance gas pressure regulator, 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 psi (3.5 kPa). 

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping 

system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during 

any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test 

pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

For an appliance designed for use with a non-disposable self-

contained LP-gas supply system:

• 

Propane cylinders may be acceptable for use with the ap-

pliance provided they are compatible with the appliance 

retention means. 

• 

LP-gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked 

in accordance with the 

U.S. Department of Transportation 

(D.O.T.) Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders

, or the 

Stan

-

dard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation 

of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339

 as 

applicable. 

• 

LP-gas supply cylinders between 4 and 40 pounds must 

have an overfill prevention device.

• 

LP-gas supply cylinder must have a connection device com-

patible with the connection of the appliance.

• 

If the appliance is equipped with a CGA No. 600 Cylinder 

Connection Device, the cylinder must be disconnected when 

the appliance is not in use.

• 

If appliance is to be permanently connected to a gas piping 

system from a remote supply tank, installation must be in ac-

cordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, 

with the 

National Fuel Gas Codes ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Enclosures for LP-gas supply cylinders shall be ventilated by 

openings at the level of the cylinder valve and at floor level. The 

effectiveness of the opening(s) for purposes of ventilation shall 

be determined with the LP-gas supply cylinder(s) in place. This 

shall be accomplished by one of the following.

a.  One side of the enclosure shall be completely open; or

b.  For an enclosure having four sides, a top and a bottom:

1.  At least two ventilation openings at cylinder valve 

level shall be provided in the side wall, equally 

sized, spaced at 180 degrees (3.14rad), and unob-

structed. Each opening shall have a total free area 

of not less than 1/2 square inch per pound (2.3 sq. 

cm/kg) of stored fuel capacity and not less than a 

total free area of 10 square inches (64.5 sq. cm).

2.  Ventilation opening(s) shall be provided at floor 

level and shall have a total free area of not less 

than 1/2 square inch per pound (3.2 sq. cm/kg) of 

stored fuel capacity and not less than a total free 

area of 10 square inches (64.5 sq. cm). If ventila-

tion openings at floor level are in a side all, there 

shall be at least two openings. The bottom of the 

openings shall be at floor level and the upper edge 

no more than 5 inches (127 mm) above the floor. 

The openings shall be equally sized, spaced at 180 

degrees (3.14 rad) and unobstructed.

3.  Every opening shall have minimum dimensions so 

as to permit the entrance of a 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) 

diameter rod.

• 

Cylinder valves shall be readily accessible for hand opera-

tion. A door on the enclosure to gain access to the cylinder 

valves is acceptable, provided it is non-locking and can be 

opened without the use of tools.

• 

There shall be a minimum clearance of 2 inches (51 mm) 

between the lower surface of the floor of the LP-gas supply 

cylinder enclosure and the ground.

• 

The design of the appliance shall be such that (1) the LP-gas 

supply cylinder(s) can be connected, disconnected and the 

connections inspected and tested outside the cylinder en-

closure; and (2) those connections which could be disturbed 

when installing the cylinder(s) in the enclosure can be leak 

tested inside the enclosure;

Cleaning Instructions

This appliance is built using mostly high-grade stainless steel to 

resist rust-through. In outdoor applications, all stainless steel will 

develop a dull patina and, depending on the local environment 

and on the materials used in the installation, may develop some 

surface oxidation (rust). This does not affect the performance 

of the firebox, and does not require any action to correct. If you 

prefer keeping your firebox front looking factory-fresh, clean it as 

required with stainless steel cleaner.
When installation application includes highly acidic applications 

such as mortar or stone etching, do not remove the protective 

PVC film from the stainless steel until after this application is 

complete. Once the film has been removed we recommend that 

the appliance be cleaned with a stainless steel cleaner immedi-

ately.

Please note that areas where the film has been formed (corners, 

hems, etc.) may require extra cleaning due to the properties of 

the film. Ensure that all protective film has been removed from 

the firebox prior to burning the appliance.
