5.2 Gas Line Installation
CAUTION: Installation of the gas line must only be done by
a qualified person in accordance with local building codes, if
any. If not, follow ANSI 223.1. Commonwealth of Massachusetts
installations must be done by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.
NOTE: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of ½
psi (3.5 kPa). For test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi
(3.5 kPa), the appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve.
• A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved) ½
in. (13 mm) tee handle manual shut-off valve and flexible gas
connector are to be connected to the ½ in. (13 mm) control
valve inlet. If substituting for these components, please
consult local codes for compliance.
• This fireplace is equipped with a 3/8” (10 mm) x 18” (457
mm) long flexible gas connector and manual shut-off valve.
• Run gas line into fireplace. The gas line should be run to the
point of connection where the shut-off valve and flexible gas
line will connect.
• Do not run gas line in a manner that would obstruct fan
operation.
• For high altitude installations, consult the local gas distributor
or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods.
