compartment. This grounding plug provides protection against shock hazard and should be
plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the
grounding prong from the plug.

Connect the Gas Line
All codes require a shutoff valve mounted in the supply line.
Figure 35
illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. The flex-line method is acceptable in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements vary depending on
locality. Installation must be in compliance with local codes.
NOTE:
Ensure the CPI/IPI switch is set to intermittent mode with the pilot in the OFF position. See control
compartment door label for more information.
NOTE:
A sediment trap is recommended in the gas piping within the home to prevent moisture and debris in the line
from damaging the valve.
NOTE:
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane resistant compounds
are used in propane applications). Optional: Seal around the gas line to prevent cold air leakage. Gas line holes and
other openings can be caulked or stuffed with unfaced fiberglass insulation.
