connect the unit except to connect the cylinder regulator to the piping system. It must be connected with
rigid pipe, copper tube or an approved flexible metal connector which complies with Z21.24/ CSA 6.10 or
ANSI Z21.75/CSA 6.27.
The installation must comply with CAN B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane installation code in Canada, or
to the National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1 in the United States. The gas supply pipe must be sufficiently
sized to supply the BTU/h specified on the rating plate, based on the length of the piping run. If installing
a side burner, a separate line must be branched off to the side burner unit and enter the side burner
opening at the specified location. If the enclosure is to house a propane cylinder, the tank portion of the
enclosure must be ventilated according to local codes, and must not have communication with the cavity
used to enclose the gas grill. A propane cylinder can not be stored below the gas grill.
BUILT IN CYLINDER ENCLOSURES:
Built in cylinder enclosures which completely enclose the cylinder must
have both of the following:
1. At least one unobstructed ventilation opening on the exposed exterior side of the enclosure located
within 5 in (127mm) of the top of the enclosure. The opening must have a total free area of more than 20
in
2
(130 cm
2
) for a 20 lb (9.1 kg) cylinder and 30 in
2
(195 cm
2
) for a 30 lb (13.6 kg) cylinder.
2. At least one ventilation opening on the exposed, exterior side of the enclosure located 1 in (25.4 mm) or
less from the floor level. The opening must have a total free area of more than 10 in
2
(65 cm
2
) for a 20 lb
(9.1 kg) cylinder and 15 in
2
(100 cm
2
) for a 30 lb (13.6 kg) cylinder. The upper edge must be no more than
5 in (127 mm) above the floor level.
Every opening must be large enough to permit the entrance of a 1/8 in (3.2 mm) rod.
WARNING!
•
The cylinder valve(s) must be readily accessible for hand operation. A door on the enclosure to gain
access to the cylinder valves is acceptable, provided it is non-locking and can be opened without the
use of tools.
•
The enclosure for the LP-gas cylinder must isolate the cylinder from the burner compartment to
provide shielding from radiation, a flame barrier, and protection from foreign material, such as hot
drippings. The enclosure cannot be located directly below the grill.
•
There must be a minimum clearance of 2 in (51 mm) between the floor of the LP-gas cylinder
enclosure and the ground.
•
The enclosure must be designed so that the LP-gas cylinder can be connected, disconnected and
the connections inspected and tested outside the cylinder enclosure. Any connections that can
be disturbed when installing the cylinder in the enclosure must be accessible for testing inside the
enclosure.
