GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90
o
elbow.
The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make
installation easier, use a listed fl exible connector
and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes.
Since some municipalities have additional local
codes it is always best to consult with your local
authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation
codes.
For USA installations follow local codes and/or
the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or fl ex connectors use only
approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so that
gas lines can be easily disconnected for burner
and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines
and fl ex connectors are usually considered to
meet this requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a
soap and water solution or gas leak detector.
Do not use open fl ame for leak testing.
Note: Prior to any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system that exceeds
test pressures of 1/2 psig, this
appliance must be disconnected from
the piping system. If test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig are used
then this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-off valve
during the testing.
HIGH ELEVATION
This unit (at 38,000 Btu/h) is approved in Canada
for altitude 2000 ft. to 4500 ft. (CAN/CGA-2.17-
M91) with the orifi ce kit Part # 621-975. For
Natural Gas installations above 4500 ft. follow
current CAN/CGA-B149.1.
In U.S.A., for installations above 2000 ft. refer
to current ANSI Z223.1 Sc8-8.1.2a appendix F,
for resizing orifi ce.

Connector and secure with masonry bolts.
Diagram 10. If you have a framed wall in
front of the masonry, use wood screws to
mount the Wall Thimble Cover to the framed
wall, over the Retro Connector and the 10"
(254mm) square framed opening. Diagram
11. If needed, add a section of direct vent
pipe to the Retro Connector in order to extend
through the opening in the Wall Thimble
Cover.

the Retro Connector may be completed with
a section of black direct vent pipe, together
with an adjustable length pipe section.
