Bulk Supply Liquid Propane Gas
Requirements
Verify the type of gas your pizza oven has been configured for by the factory
by checking the serial plate on the back of the oven. Pizza ovens configured for
liquid propane (LP) gas are orificed differently than ovens configured for natural
gas (NG). Pizza ovens configured for use with bulk LP tanks are shipped with a
gray hose with a quick-connect fitting.
Connection:
Quick-connect hose assembly (included) connects to the pizza
oven via 0.5" NPT male with a 0.375" flare adapter (included). The quick-
connect fitting (included) threads onto a 0.375” male NPT connection point
(not included).
Operating Pressure:
11.0" W.C.
A step down regulator MUST be used on an LP house system to reduce the pressure down to 11.0" W.C. for
the pizza oven.
IMPORTANT:
Always close gas supply shutoff valve
before disconnecting the pizza oven gas supply
hose.
IMPORTANT:
An installer-supplied safety shutoff
valve MUST be installed on the gas supply line for
the pizza oven. The valve should be easily accessed
and located between 3 and 20 feet away from the
oven.
All gas connections should be made by a qualified
technician. The installation and all installer-supplied
parts must conform to local codes. In the absence
of local codes, the installation and all parts should
conform to the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54; Storage and Handling of Liquefied
Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58; Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1;
or Propane
Storage and Handling, CSA B149.2.
All pipe sealants must be an approved type.
