Vermont Castings, Majestic Products RHE Natural Vent Insert

During any pressure testing of the gas line system, 
when the test pressures are to exceed 1/2 psi (3.5 kpa) 
the fireplace and its gas valve must not be connected to 
that system. 
At test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi, the gas 
valve of the fireplace may be connected to the gas line, 
but must be in the closed position.
Some municipalities have additional local codes, it is 
always best to consult the local authority and the CSA-
B149.1  installation code in Canada.
FOR U.S.A Installations consult the current National 
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1

Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap 
and water solution. 

Do not use an open 

flame for leak testing.

   On fireplaces equipped with the Eurosit 630 gas 

valves, there are brass plugs in two of the holes. These plugs 

are not to be removed. The gas inlet hole has a plastic cap in 

it. Remove the plastic cap and connect your gas supply line at 

this point.

The MN/MP valve control used on the 
RHE25 does not include the thermostat 
bullb as shown in Figure 5.
