GAS ACCESS HOLES
The fireplace is designed to accept a 3/8-inch gas line for an
approved ventless gas logset. Have the line installed by a qualified
service person in accordance with all building codes. Consult local
building codes to properly size the gas supply line leading to the 3/8-
inch hook-up at the unit. The state of Massachusetts requires that
a flexible appliance connector cannot exceed three feet in length.
A flex-line and shut-off valve have been provided.
The gas shut-off
valve must be located outside of the unit in an accessible area.
For OP36FP32 and OP42FP32 gas access holes are provided
on both sides of the fireplace.

the knockout in the refractory brick panel using a large standard
screwdriver and hammer. First, place screwdriver in groove next

be used to create a clean hole for the gas line to pass through.
See Figure 14.
After the brick panel knockout is removed, the fireplace wrap may
have a round metal knockout that must be removed also. Use a
screwdriver to punch out the metal knockout.
For OP36FP72 and OP42FP72 the gas access holes are provide
