NATURAL GAS CONNECTION
The outdoor kitchen must be disconnected from the
natural gas supply piping system during any pressure
The outdoor kitchen must be isolated from the natural
gas supply piping system by closing all individual
shut-off valves during any pressure testing of the
testing of the system in excess of ½ PSIG (3.5 kPa).
WARNING
system equal to or less than ½ PSIG (3.5 kPa).
Never connect the grill to an unregulated gas supply.
It is recommended that you use a certified or licensed
gas technician to make all natural gas connections.
Prior to construction, confirm with your dealer if any
permits are required to comply with the state and local
codes for natural gas installation.
IMPORTANT
To allow proper heating performance of the grill and side
burner, confirm that your home natural gas supply
pressure is sufficient to maintain 4.0” W.C. manifold
pressure at each appliance (measured while each is in
operation). A home natural gas supply pressure of
7”±1.5” W.C. entering each appliance regulator is
desirable to achieve 4.0” W.C. outlet pressure at each
appliance regulator. If the grill or side burner are
operating at a gas pressure lower than 4.0” W.C., the
resulting BTU rate for each will decrease resulting in
poor heating performance. Decreased gas pressure
can also make each appliance more susceptible
to blow-out by wind. A certified gas technician can confirm
if your home’s natural gas supply pressure is acceptable.
CAUTION
The grill and side burner provided with this outdoor kitchen
are set for use with natural gas. Both appliances are
designed for conversion to LP gas also.
CONVERSION TO LP GAS MUST BE PERFORMED BY
A CERTIFIED GAS TECHNICIAN.
LP conversion kit model K00AA4615 must be used (sold
separately). This conversion kit is to be used ONLY with
SABER EZ Outdoor Kitchens.
Step 1: Correctly Sizing the Natural Gas Supply Line
In most cases, a pipe diameter of ½” to ¾” is sufficient
to connect your outdoor kitchen to your home’s natural gas
supply system. The correct pipe size depends on
the following:
1. the overall length of your home’s natural gas supply
pipe run
2. the connection point of your outdoor kitchen into your
home’s natural gas supply system with respect to
placement of natural gas appliances in your home
3. the desired distance of the outdoor kitchen from your
home’s natural gas supply
4. the combined total BTU rate of all the natural gas
appliances in your home.
A certified gas technician will be able to recommend the
appropriate gas pipe size and length to connect your outdoor
kitchen to your home gas supply. The combined BTU rate
of the grill and the side burner in your outdoor kitchen is
42,000 BTU/hr.
Step 2: Placement of the Manual Shut-off Valve
It is recommended that a manual shut-off valve that is
sized correctly for the gas supply pipe be installed outside
the kitchen enclosure. This valve will allow safe access to
shut off the natural gas supply to the outdoor kitchen in the
event of an emergency. A convenient location for the safety
valve is at the rear of the kitchen enclosure in proximity to the
grommet in the rear wall. This allows for easy access to
connect the gas piping in the enclosure to the safety valve
(see image below).
If a gas supply stub-up is used inside the kitchen enclosure,
an external shut-off valve close to the grill is still recommended.
