INSTALLING THE GAS LINE
Correctly size and route the gas supply line from the supply regulator to the area where the appliance is to be installed as per
requirements outlined in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B149.1 (Canada).
Never use galvanized or plastic pipe unless specified for use with gas. Refer to the table below for proper sizing of the supply gas
line. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made of materials that are in strict accordance with local codes and regulations. A
qualified plumber or gas fitter should be hired to correctly size and route the gas supply line to the appliance.
Installing a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the appliance involves numerous considerations of materials, protection, sizing,
locations, controls, pressure, sediment trap, and other criteria. The sizing and/or installing of gas piping should only be performed
by a qualified plumber or gasfitter.
The gas control inlet accepts a 3/8” NPT fitting.
