The Gas
Supply Line
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed by a
qualified service technician in accordance with
all building codes
.
NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas
supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
NOTE: Consult local building codes to properly
size the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch
(13 mm) hook-up at the unit.
This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch
(13 mm) gas supply line.
To install the gas supply line:
A listed manual shut-off valve and a listed flexible gas
connector are connected to the 3/8 inch (10 mm)
inlet of the control valve. Some gas control valves
have this tapping on the face of the valve.
The gas line may be run from either side of the fire-
place provided the hole in the outer wrap does not
exceed 2 inches in diameter and it does not penetrate
the airtight firebox.
The gap between the supply piping and gas access
hole can be plugged with non-combustible insulation
to prevent cold air infiltration.
Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of
the fireplace.
Open the fireplace lower grille, insert the gas supply
line through the gas line hole, and connect it to the
shut-off valve.
When attaching the pipe, support the control so that
the lines are not bent or torn.
After the gas line installation is complete, use a soap
solution to carefully check all gas connections for
leaks.
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN
FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
