Gas Supply and Connection
The heater operates only on
low pressure
LPG gas
(11"w/c / 0.5psi / 27.4 mB).
If there is a propane fuel system installed a separate supply line must be supplied for the
heater. This line must be equipped with a low-pressure regulator ( Part No. 15203).
Connect to the 3/8" flare connector of the heater with copper or an 3/8 dia. approved hose.
During this procedure some particles may get into the fuel line. These could block or restrict
the small heater orifice.
Blow out fuel line prior to attaching to the propane supply and the heater.
Disposable Propane Bottle
It is necessary to install a pressure regulator for gas supplied from a propane bottle. For this
type of installation we recommend using a Low Pressure Kit (Part No. 15204) This Kit
includes a pressure regulator (11 inch W/C) and a mounting kit. The kit must be mounted
outside. An AGA/CGA propane hose can be used to connect this Kit to the heater. Hoses are
available in 10 ft ( 3m) (Part No. 15205) or 20 ft (6m) (Part No. 15206)
ATTENTION , DANGER:
1.
Never connect propane/LPG heater directly to the propane/LPG
supply. This heater requires an external regulator (not supplied).
Install the external regulator between the heater and propane/LPG
supply.
2.
After gas hook-up and before lighting the heater, test all gas lines
and connections for leaks with a soap solution.
