IMPORTANT STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN
MAKING THE GAS LINE HOOK-UP (Fig. 5)
This product must be installed by a licensed
plumber or gasfitter when installed within the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
1.Consult your gas supplier for proper gas pipe sizing.
Normally up to 50’ of ½” inside diameter (ID) gas pipe will
supply adequate volume for all vent free units.
2. The incoming gas line may be routed into the
fireplace either from the left or right side.
3. Include a manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line so
the appliance may be disconnected for servicing.
4. Center the burner system from side to side in the firebox.
In a vented firebox, if the damper is used, the burner
assembly should be located directly under the damper.
5. Use the 3/8” aluminum connector (provided in the
accessory kit) to connect the gas supply line to the regulator
on the burner assembly.
6. Always use an external regulator for all L.P. appliances
to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum of 13”
W.C. This is in addition to the regulator fitted to the heater.
WARNING:
CONNECTING DIRECTLY TO AN
UN-REGULATED L.P. TANK CAN CAUSE AN
EXPLOSIO N.
7.
Test all connections after turning gas supply on for leaks
using a soap and water solution. DO NOT USE AN OPEN
FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
8. It is most convenient to light the pilot and check the
operation of the main burner with the logs not in place. After
carefully checking the gas supply line for leaks and correcting
any found, refer to the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section
(pg. 10) to test the burner assembly.
