Quadra-Fire • Fogata Grande
D. Gas Pressure
Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance
performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made
following
NFPA51
.
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
above 1/2 psig.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
WARNING
• Gas Supply Pressure: Minimum inlet gas supply pressure
must be 4.5 in. W.C. for natural gas or 11 in. W.C. for LP
gas for the purpose of input adjustment. Maximum inlet
gas pressure must not exceed 7.0 in. W.C. for natural
gas or 13 in. W.C. for LP gas. The gas line supplying the
appliance must be sufficient size to furnish the appropriate
supply pressure to the appliance while operating in the
“High” setting. (Minimum line ID of 1/2 in. required if the
line is longer than 20 ft.
• Gas Line Pressure Test: Perform pressure test according
to state and local code (if pressure exceeds 1/2 in. psi [3.5
kPa]) before appliance is connected. Be sure to release
air pressure from the gas line before connection is made
to the appliance. Excessive pressure will damage the gas
control and may cause a gas leak.
• Gas Leak Test: Make sure the gas connections are tight.
Turn on the gas and coat each joint with a non-corrosive
gas leak check solution. Air bubbles will form indicating
any leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME OR ANY TYPE OF
IGNITION SOURCE TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. All leaks
must be corrected before proceeding with installation.
WARNING
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Asphyxiation Risk
• Check all fittings and connections.
• Do not use open flame.
• After the gas line installation is complete,
all connections must be tightened and
checked for leaks with a commercially
available, non-corrosive leak check
solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check
solution following testing.
Fittings and connections may have loosened
during shipping and handling.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Do NOT change the valve settings.
• This valve has been preset at the
factory.
• Changing valve settings may result in fire
hazard or bodily injury.
Shock Risk
Explosion Risk
Do NOT wire 110V to valve.
