INSTALLATION METHOD #2- USING NG GAS: After the island has been constructed and built per the previous cutout
recommendations and guidelines (method #2), it’s now time to install the LazyMan ATS Series Open Hearth grill into the
island. If the gas piping is to be run INTERNALLY ((inside the island) then there must be hollow space below the grill for
the gas pipe routing. The above diagram shows a typical Natural Gas installation where the gas piping is routed
downward, through island and to the gas source. This routing can also be accomplished both internally and externally by
routing the initial connection downward and then immediately routing the piping through the island rear or side wall of
the island. In this instance, additional fittings will be needed and the gas regulator and gas shut-off valve is mounted
outside of the island structure. This grill is shipped with a 1/2 NPT Elbow (female) fitting at the end of the gas manifold
for both NG and LP hose connections. For this installation method, carefully rotate this elbow (using a pipe wrench)
downward so that the open end is facing the ground or bottom of the island.
This grill is also shipped with an NG regulator (for natural gas grills) and an LP regulator with hose for grills set up for
liquid propane. NOTE: If you have a grill set up for NG gas type, and it is equipped with a 3/8 NPT Elbow, then a 3/8 NPT
male to 1/2 NPT female straight conversion fitting will be required. A 1/2 NPT female elbow can also be used to replace
the existing elbow.
It is highly recommended that a qualified plumber or gas technician make this installation and perform the gas hook-
up procedure.
1. Measure the distance from the front gas exit point of the manifold (elbow) to the inside bottom of the
island. This is the TOTAL space you have to work with. Also measure the distance from the bottom of the
cutout to the open space below it. Add 2” to this length. This will be the length of your first pipe. All piping
should be 1/2 “ (I.D.) with 1/2” NPT male threads at both ends. This pipe is called a ‘nipple’. Nipples come
pre-threaded at both ends and are available in a variety of different lengths.
2. Use pipe joint compound or Teflon tape (to seal the threads) FOR ALL PIPE CONNECTIONS and install this
first pipe into the elbow at the front of the grill.
3. Using two or more people, carefully lift the grill into the island cutout FROM THE TOP DOWN and allow the
newly installed pipe to slide through the pre-cut hole or opening in the bottom of the cutout. Position the
grill so that the front of the grill is flush with the front of the island.
4. Install the NG regulator to the end of this first pipe. Make sure the regulator is installed so the arrow
(marked on the regulator) is pointing to the grill, i.e., in the direction the gas will be flowing.
5. Measure the distance from the open end of the regulator to the bottom of the island and subtract 8” from
this measurement to allow for the next 3 connections. This will be the length of your next nipple.
6. Install this nipple to the regulator and at the other end, install a ½” NPT female ‘Tee’ connection. The third
(downward) leg of the ‘Tee’ is used to install a 3” minimum length ‘Drip Leg’ with cap. This leg is required in
many states and is used for periodic moisture relief. Check your local codes. This complete pipe routing
should now be resting 1-2 inches above the inside bottom of the island. It is best to create a small hole
directly below this ‘Drip Leg’ in the bottom of the island. This will allow for moisture run-off, through the
island bottom, when the drip leg cap needs to be removed for moisture relief.
7. Install the next nipple into the center opening of the ‘Tee’ and run this connection to the gas source.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the gas source does not have a gas shut-off valve, then a new ½” quarter turn valve
MUST be installed between the last gas pipe and the existing gas source. This gas valve should be installed
by a qualified plumber or gas technician. See the next step.
