Installation
XG0799 - 081319
The gas connection (1/2” NPT) is located on the lower portion of the
fireplace body. The manufacturer requires a service shut off valve
located in an accessible location to isolate the gas supply. The gas line
must be installed and tested for leaks before finishing the fireplace.
The gas valve has a provision to remove a plug so that a hose barb
fitting can be installed to check pressure.
Natural Gas
requires a minimum inlet gas supply pressure of 5.5" W.C.
and a manifold pressure of 3.5" W.C.
Propane
requires a minimum inlet gas supply pressure of 11" W.C.
and a manifold pressure of 10" W.C.
Maximum allowable inlet pressure for NG and Propane is 1/2 PSI.
A. This appliance is equipped with an ignition system that lights the pilot
burner automatically. Do not attempt to light the pilot by hand.
B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be
sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than
air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in
your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow
the gas supplier's instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the Fire Department.
C. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system, and any
gas control which has been under water.
Note:
After gas line is connected, each
appliance connection, valve and
valve train
must be checked while under normal operating pressure with
either a liquid solution, or leak detection device, to locate any source of
leakage. Tighten any areas where bubbling appears or leak is detected
until bubbling stops completely or leak is no longer detected. DO NOT
use a flame of any kind to test for leaks.
All adjustments must be made on the basis of the specific characteristics of the appliance. Check inlet and outlet pressure
using the pressure test points provided. After testing, carefully seal test points with the provided screws. Recommended
torque: 1.0 Nm. Disconnect pressure regulator connection "VENT" (if used). Remove the modulator plastic cap E.
• Maximum pressure: power the modulator in the maximum condition. Screw in the nut C to increase the outlet pressure
and screw it out to decrease it. Use a 10 mm spanner.
•
Minimum pressure: Turn off the power supply to the modulator and, keeping the nut C stationary, screw in the screw D
to increase the pressure and screw it out to decrease it. Screwdriver 6 x 1 blade. Carefully put back the modulator plastic
cap. Reconnect pressure regulator connection (if used).
WARNING:
to ensure the correct operation of the modulator it is necessary that the plastic cap E is returned to its
original location.
Section 6: Installing the gas line
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may
result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
