Figure 47: Gas Shutoff Valve.
A manual gas shutoff valve is located inside the lower right-hand corner of the fireplace just below the
firebox. It is accessible for service by removing the Safety Screen.
Some local codes may require an additional manual gas shutoff valve, in a more readily accessible area,
located upstream from the appliance.
The fireplace input rating is shown in the chart below.

Correct gas line diameter must be used to assure proper gas pressure and operation.
Turn on the gas supply and check that all connections are gas tight and leak free.
The gas control valve is equipped with a capture screw type pressure test port, therefore it is not necessary
to provide an 1/8 inch N.P.T. plugged tapping pressure port for checking gas pressure immediately
upstream of the gas supply connection to the appliance.
Check local codes for additional requirements.
