ing bottom mounting screw into wall stud,
drill holes at marked locations using 9/64"
drill bit.
5. Replace heater onto mounting bracket.
6. Place spacers between bottom mounting
holes and wall anchor or drilled hole.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: A qualified ser-
vice technician must connect
heater to gas supply. Follow all
local codes.
WARNING: This appliance
requires a 3/8" NPT (National
Pipe Thread) inlet connection to
the pressure regulator.
WARNING: For natural gas,
Never connect heater to private
(non-utility) gas wells. This gas
is commonly known as wellhead
gas.
WARNING: Do not over-
tighten gas connections.
CAUTION: Use only new,
black iron or steel pipe. Inter-
nally tinned copper tubing may
be used in certain areas. Check
your local codes. Use pipe of
1/2" diameter or greater to allow
proper gas volume to heater. If
pipe is too small, undue loss of
pressure will occur.
CAUTION: For natural gas,
check your gas line pressure
before connecting heater to gas
line. Gas line pressure must be
no greater than 10.5" of water. If
gas line pressure is higher, heater
regulator damage could occur.
CAUTION: For propane gas,
Never connect heater directly
to the gas supply. This heater
requires an external regulator
(not supplied). Install the exter-
nal regulator between the heater
and gas supply. Gas supplier
provides external regulator for
natural gas. The installer pro-
vides the external regulator for
propane gas.
CAUTION: Avoid damage to
regulator. Hold gas regulator
with wrench when connecting
into gas piping and/or fittings.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to gas
(Propane or Natural Gas).
