The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either
the national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas
Installation Code or CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane Installation Code.
1.
This gas appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at the test pressures in excess of 1/2
psi (3.5 kPa).
2.
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
If the gas Power Burner is factory built for natural gas, the regulator supplied is set for 4”
water column. The regulator is convertible to 10” water column for system LP application. Do not
use with a 20-lb LP cylinder.
Make sure that the regulator is set for natural gas. To check, remove
the brass hex cap. You will find the conversion plastic pin attached to the cap to the underside of
the cap. If the disc (1/2 in. diameter) of the pin is close to the cap, then the regulator is set for
natural gas. If the disc is at the tip of the pin, away from the brass cap, the regulator is set for
system LP application. To convert to natural gas, remove the plastic conversion pin and invert and
replace it back in a manner such that the disc is close to the brass cap. For both natural and LP, the
maximum inlet pressure is 14” water column.
A typical natural gas installation is shown on page 3. Make sure that the factory-supplied
regulator is used and installed with the arrow mark on the regulator pointing towards the gas
Power Burner. Do not use any replacement regulator other than that specified by Twin Eagles. Use
only pipe sealants that are approved for use with natural and LP gases. An installer-supplied gas
shutoff valve must be installed in an accessible location.

CAUTION BEFORE TESTING
Finding and/or fixing a gas leak is NOT a “DO-IT-YOURSELF” procedure.
NEVER USE THE POWER BURNER WITHOUT FIRST LEAK TESTING THE GAS
CONNECTIONS.
WARNING: DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. USE OF AN OPEN
FLAME COULD RESULT IN A FIRE, EXPLOSION AND BODILY HARM.
DO NOT SMOKE WHILE PERFORMING THE LEAK TEST!
To prevent fire or explosion hazard, DO NOT use or permit sources of ignition in the area
while performing a leak test. Perform leak test outdoors only.
Check to ensure that flexible hoses do not have any cuts and wear that may affect the safety
before each use. Only the factory supplied
regulator must be used. Use only replacement
regulator specified by Twin Eagles.
