FIREPLACE INSTALLATION 

ChECK GAS TyPE

Use proper gas type for the fireplace you are installing. If you have conflicting gas type, do 

not install fireplace. See dealer where you purchased the fireplace for proper fireplace for 

your gas type or conversion kit.

INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO FIREPLACE / BURNER SYSTEM LOCATION

INSTALLATION ITEMS NEEDED

Before installing fireplace and burner system, make sure you have the items listed below.

•  External regulator (supplied by installer)  •  Piping (check local codes) •  Sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

 

•  Equipment shutoff valve* 

•  Test gauge connection* 

•  Sediment trap (recommended) 

 

•  Tee joint 

•  Pipe wrench

 

•  approved flexible gas line with gas connector (if allowed by local codes — not provided)

*  A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve witH 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge 

connection. Purchase the CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve from your dealer.

For propane/LP connections only, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce 

incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 13 inches of water. If you do 

not reduce incoming gas pressure, burner system regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with 

the vent pointing down as shown in

 Figure 38. 

Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.

When using copper of flex connectors use only fittings 

approved for gas connections. The gas control inlet is 

3/8" NPT.

W

ARNING

A qualified installer or service person 

must connect appliance to gas supply. 

Follow all local codes. 

CAUTION

Use only new black iron or steel pipe. 

Internally  tinned  copper  or  copper 

tubing  can  be  used  per  National 

Fuel  Code,  section  2.6.3,  providing 

gas  meets  hydrogen  sulfide  limits, 

and where permitted by local codes. 

Gas  piping  system  must  be  sized 

to  provide  minimum  inlet  pressure 

(listed on data plate) at the maximum 

flow  rate  (BTU/hr).  Undue  pressure 

loss  will  occur  if  the  pipe  is  too 

small.

All electric heaters have hot and arcing 

or sparking parts inside. Do not store 

or  use  gasoline  or  other  flammable 

vapors  and  liquids  in  the  vicinity  of 

this or any other appliance.

CAUTION
