NATURAL GAS HOOK-UP
• Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing supply lines. Be sure to check
on
type and size of run,
and how deep to bury the line. If the line is too small the ProFire gas grill will not function properly. Any joint sealant used must be an approved
type and be resistant to actions of LP and Natural gases. Do not forget to place the installer supplied gas valve in an accessible location. Check
local codes, Consult your local gas dealer. In the absences of local codes, installation must conform to the latest edition of the national Fuel Gas
Code
ANSIZ223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1
, Natural Gas Installation Code or
CAN/CGA-B149.2
, Propane Installation Code.
• The grill is designed to operate on Natural Gas at a pressure of 7” water column (WC) (1.75kPa) unregulated. Check with you
r g
as utility for local
gas pressure. Use of your grill at pressures other than approximate 7” water column could affect the performance of your gril
l and requires installa-
tion of a natural gas regulator set at 7” WC.
• The grill 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 1/2 psig (3.5kPa). The grill must be isolated from the gas by closing its valves during any pressure testing of the supply
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).
Never use LP gas in a unit designed for natural gas. If you wish to convert your grill from one type of gas to the other you
may order a gas conversion kit from ProFire or your dealer.
GAS SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Each appliance is set and tested at the factory for the type of gas supply to be used. Identify the type of gas, either natural gas or LP gas and make
sure that the marking on the data plate (rating plate) matches the gas being supplied to the grill. The data plate is located on the rear of the grill
behind the side burner or on the right side behind the faceplate. An “X” will be marked next to the type of gas that the unit
is equipped for.
All gas connections should be made by a qualified technician and in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: CHECK TO ENSURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY HOSE DOES NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH ANY HOT SURFACE OF THE
GRILL.
NEVER CONNECT THE GRILL TO AN UNREGULATED GAS SUPPLY.
