Recommended Order of Installation
1. Determine the location of Lantern. Make sure all clearances are met, (see page 7).
2. With the Lantern head location identified, prepare and mount the Lantern head support (pillar,
post, or wall mount). This order of installation may need to be modified due to individual
installation conditions. NOTE: sections 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this page detail gas connections to the
Lantern head.
3. GAS SUPPLY: The Lantern requires 20,000 BTU input (natural gas or LP). A shut off valve and
12 inches of flex line are provided to assist connection from the supply line to the Lantern head.
The shutoff valve accepts ½” MPT (male pipe thread). Before turning gas on to the Lantern, leak-
test all gas line connections.
4. For outside post and pillar installations route a ½”stainless steel flexible gas line from the shut off
valve to the Lantern head (you will have to provide this gas line).
For wall mount applications; if using flex line to pass through the wall of a building the flex line
must be enclosed in conduit for protection, or local code may require you to hard pipe the
connection from the control module to the Lantern head.
5. Attach the Lantern head to the mount. Attach the gas line. Leave the control covers loose to
allow for leak testing access. Install the Lantern assembly.
6. Bleed the gas line and start the Lantern. Leak test the gas line. Verify the Lantern works
correctly and there are no gas leaks. Attach the control covers.
7. Give the manual to the home owner and explain the operation of the Lantern.
