INSTALLATION & OPERATION INSTRUCTION
RIGID CONNECTIONS
Double-check any installer-supplied intake pipes visually and/or blow them out with compressed air
to clear any dirt particles, threading chips , or other foreign matter before installing a service line.
Those particles will clog orifices when gas pressure is applied.
All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for LP gas, and all connections must
be tested with a soapy water solution before lighting any pilots!
FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS, CONNECTORS, AND CASTERS
If the unit is to be installed with flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect fitting, the installer must
use a heavy-duty, AGA design certified commercial flexible connector of at least 3/4" NPT (with
suitable strain reliefs). The flexible connector must comply with the standard for Connectors for
Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 and addendum Z21.69a(or latest edition) and a quick-
disconnect device that complies with the standard for quick-disconnect devices for use with Gas
Fuel should comply with ANSI Z21.41 and addendum Z21.41a(or latest edition). If disconnection of
the restraint is necessary , make sure to reconnect restraint after the appliance has been returned
to its originally installed position. Domestic gas or water connectors are not suitable!
Restraining device may be attached to the back frame/panel of the unit.
If the unit is to be installed with casters, a flexible connector must be used and the same ANSI
standards apply. Locking front casters are provided to limit the movement of the appliance without
depending on the connector or associated piping. A suitable strain relief must be installed with the
flexible connector.
All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for LP gas all connections must be
tested with a soapy water solution before lighting pilots.
