GAS CONNECTION - LP PIPED SYSTEMS
An LP piped system is one with a large central LP tank that feeds an entire household. These systems
are normally equipped with a high pressure regulator by the large LP tank, and low pressure regulators
close to the home. The gas line connectors must comply with the Standard for Connectors for Outdoor
Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75 • CSA 6.27, and suitable for outdoor installation.
The connection shall be 48” (1.22 m) or less.
NOTE: To ensure proper heating performance of this appliance, verify that the gas line supply pressure
is adequate. The regulator must be set for a supply pressure of 11 inch WC (2.74 kPa) to maintain 10 inch
WC (2.49 kPa) outlet (manifold) pressure. Use a minimum 1/2” ID flex hose to prevent gas starvation.
Ensure that the service pipe supplying the Side Burner is fitted with a shut-off valve conveniently
positioned and easily accessible as an emergency gas shut-off.
Your Aspire Side Burner for use with an LP Piped System is supplied with its own convertible regulator
which MUST be installed. If this regulator needs to be replaced, use only the type specified by Hestan
for this appliance.
To connect the regulator follow the next steps:
1. Locate the regulator mounted underneath your Side Burner.
2. Connect gas supply using a minimum 1/2” diameter flexible (semi–rigid) stainless steel gas hose, no
more than 48” (1.22 m) in length. If you plan to inter-connect the side burner with your Aspire Grill,
be sure to use the appropriate fittings and a flexible hose as short as possible to make the connection.
The hose as well as the connectors must comply with the Standard for Connectors for Outdoor Gas
Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75 • CSA 6.27, and suitable for outdoor installation.
Use the appropriate thread sealant on all connections.
3. Proceed to LEAK TESTING section.
