Burner Input Requirements
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Provide a gas supply line of ¾" (1.9 cm) rigid
pipe to the range location. A smaller size pipe
on longer runs may result in insufficient gas
supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist the
action of LP gas must be used. Do not use
TEFLON

tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing
size can be ½" (1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP
gas suppliers determine the size and materials
used in the system.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
If local codes permit, a new CSA design-
certified, 4 - 5 ft (122 - 152.4 cm) long, ½" (1.3
cm) or ¾" (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal appliance
connector may be used for connecting range
to the gas supply line.
A ½" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for
connection to the female pipe threads of the
inlet to the appliance pressure regulator. Do
not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing
when moving the range.
Rigid pipe connection:
The rigid pipe connection requires a
combination of pipe fittings to obtain an in-line
connection to the range. The rigid pipe must
be level with the range connection. All strains
must be removed from the supply and fuel lines
so range will be level and in line.
Must include a shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual
shutoff valve. This valve should be located in
the same room but external to the range. It
should be in a location that allows ease of
opening and closing. Do not block access to
shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the range.
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this
range must be used. The inlet pressure to the
regulator should be as follows for proper
operation:
Natural gas:
Minimum pressure: 3.5" WCP
Maximum pressure: 10.5" WCP
LP gas:
Minimum pressure: 8" WCP
Maximum pressure: 13.0" WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure
about the inlet pressure.

N.G. 4" WCP
L.P. 11" WCP
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating
plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6
m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings
are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft
(304.8 m) above sea level (not applicable for
Canada).
Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge
(14" WCP)
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures in excess of ½psi
(3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14"
WCP) or lower
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
