Liquid Propane
Your Cal Flame fi replace is not provided
with a propane cylinder. If you choose to
operate your fi replace with propane, you
must supply your own cylinder.
Requirements
The 20 lb propane gas supply cylinder
used with propane models must be con-
structed and marked in accordance with
the specifi cations for propane gas cylinders as required by the U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) or the CAN/CSA B339, Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods.
Manifold Pressure:
For plumbed-in liquid propane installation, use
a regulator.
Supply Pressure:
Maximum line pressure for plumbed-in propane is
14” W.C psi (3.5 kPa). Minimum line pressure for propane is 11” W.C.
Pressure Regulator:
The unit must be used with the supplied gas
pressure regulator and hose assembly. The regulator will control and
maintain a uniform gas pressure in the manifold. The burner orifi ce has
been sized for the gas pressure delivered by the regulator. Replace-
ment pressure regulator and hose assemblies must be those specifi ed
in this manual.
Cylinder Specifi cation:
Any propane gas supply cylinder used with
this fi replace must be approximately 12 inches in diameter and 18
inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5
gallons. Full cylinder weight should be approximately 38 lbs. (43.7
lbs. nominal water capacity.) Always use the cylinder dust cap on the
cylinder valve outlet during transport and when the cylinder is not
connected to the fi replace. The 20 lb propane gas cylinder used must
include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
Filler Valve:
If you do not have an updated fi ller valve on your exist-
ing propane tank, you will need to purchase one at your local hardware
store, as you will not be allowed to refi ll the tank at any fi lling station.
Transporting Gas Cylinder:
Only one cylinder should be transported
at a time. Transport cylinder in an upright and secure manner with
control valve turned off and the dust cap in place.
