Gas Connection
Installation of this range must conform with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1-latest edition.
In Canada
The range must be installed in accordance with the current
CGA Standard CAN/CGA-B149 – Installation Codes for Gas
Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local codes.
In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts
This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or
gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
A “T” handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the
gas supply line to this appliance.
Gas Supply Requirements

Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution
conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure) and the
adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
The range is designed to operate at a manifold pressure of 4’’
of water column (1 kPa) on natural gas. A conversion kit for
LP gas (Propane) is supplied with the range. When converted
to LP gas, a pressure of 10’’ of water column (2.49 kPa) is
required.
Make sure you are supplying your range with the correct type
of gas.
If the range is to be used on LP gas, a qualified LP installer
must convert it. We recommend that the range be converted
before installation. This must be done before the range can
be used on LP gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to
the regulator must be between 4½’’ and 13’’ of water column
(1.12–3.24 kPa).
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 10’’ and
13’’ of water column (2.49–3.24 kPa).
When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the
inlet pressure must be at least 1’’ (0.25 kPa) greater than the
operating (manifold) pressure as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range
manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of
whether natural or LP gas is being used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the
range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of ½’’ and be
5 feet in length for ease of installation.
