Gas Line Requirements
!
The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI 223.1 and
the requirements listed below.
!
The fireplace and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures under 1/2 psig,
isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.
!
Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the fireplace.
F u e l
•
This fireplace is designed either for natural gas or for propane (but not for both). Check the
sticker on the top of the gas control valve to make sure the correct fuel is used.
Gas Line Connection
•
A manual shutoff valve is required for installation (within 3’ of the heater or inside the fireplace). T-
Handle gas cocks are required in Massachusetts in compliance with code 248CMR.
Gas Control Valve
3/8" M.P.T to 1/2" O.D. Fitting

Gas Inlet Pressure:
Standard Input Pressure
Natural Gas
7" W.C. (1.74 kPA)
Propane
13" W.C. (2.73 kPA)
•
If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough, the supply regulator is
adequately adjusted, and the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
•
The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank)
should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed above. Contact the local gas supplier if the
regulator is at an improper pressure.
