GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Correct gas pressure and proper gas supply line sizing is imperative to the successful performance of this
Mendota gas fireplace. Be sure the gas supplier or plumber carefully checks for correct gas pressure and gas
line sizing when installing the fireplace.
It is critical to carefully check for gas leaks when hooking up the fireplace—check with soap and water
solution.
Be sure to install "approved" flex gas line with brass-to-brass fittings to prevent gas leaks at connections.
Gas supply piping must include a drip leg to eliminate the possibility of contaminants entering the gas train.
Adhere strictly to local and national codes for entire installation.
Correct gas pressure and proper gas supply line sizing is required.
Gas Supply Line Sizing
This Mendota gas fireplace comes equipped with a ½"
NPT female inlet. Gas supply piping must enter the
fireplace cabinet on the left side.
An approved manual shut-off ball valve, if required by
local codes, must be installed at an accessible location.
The fireplace and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of ½ PSIG (3.5 kPa).
The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its manual shut-off ball valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ PSIG
(3.5 kPa).
A proper gas line diameter must be selected to run
from the supply regulator to the fireplace. Refer to the
following table for proper gas pipe diameters.
Strictly adhere to the correct pipe sizes.
