LP GAS HOOK-UP
A typical LP gas installation is shown on the right. Make sure that the factory-supplied regulator is used and
installed with the arrow mark on the regulator pointing towards the Power Burner. Do not use any replacement
regulator other than that specified by Twin Eagles. Use only pipe sealants that are approved for use with natural
and LP gases. An installer-supplied gas shutoff valve must be installed in an accessible location.
(Reference:
page 6 for leak test procedure).
Although LP gas cylinder may be used, it is not recommended due to the
large amount of gas consumption of the unit and will freeze up the LP gas cylinder
Note:
An enclosure for LP gas cylinder must be vented on the level of the cylinder valve and at floor level. The
effectiveness of the opening(s) for purposes of ventilation shall be determined with the LP gas supply cylinder in
place. This shall be accomplished by one of the following:
a.
One side of the enclosure shall be fully open; or
b.
For a cylinder enclosure having four sides, a top and a bottom, and intended for installation in a built-in
enclosure:
1.
At least one ventilation opening shall be provided on the exposed exterior side of the enclosure located
within 5 in (1.27mm) of the top of the enclosure and unobstructed. The opening(s) shall have a total free
area of not less than 1 in²/lb (14.2 cm²/kg) of stored fuel capacity.
2.
At least one ventilation opening shall be provided on the exposed, exterior side of the enclosure 1 in.
(25.4 mm) or less from the floor level and shall have a total free area of not less than ½ in²/lb (7.1
cm²/kg) of stored fuel capacity. The upper edge shall be no more than 5 in (127 mm) above the floor
level.
3.
Every opening shall have a minimum dimension so as to permit the entrance of 1/8 in (3.2 mm) rod.
CAUTION: Provide adequate ventilation holes in the enclosure for safety purposes in the event of a gas leak.
