GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection is ½” SAE 45 degrees flare fitting and is easily accessible at the
rear of the BGV and on the right side of the BGI. The gas line can be rigid pipe or
make installation easier use the listed flexible connector and manual shut-off valve if
allowed by local building codes. For minimum and maximum supply pressure see the
system data table.
NATURAL GAS OR PROPANE
The BGV and BGI gas stoves are available to burn either natural gas or propane. The burners
are specifically manufactured to burn either one. Make sure the stove that you have purchased
is equipped for the proper gas.
Note: During and pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system that exceeds test pressures
of ½ psig, this appliance and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the
piping system. If test pressures equal to less than
½ psig are used the this aplliance must be
isolated from piping system by closing its
individual manual shut off valve during testing.
Inlet and manifolds pressures can be checked using
the ports provided on the control valve. These ports
can be found on the valve between the variable
flame control and the control knob, and are easily
accessible for a test gage connection.
