Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved “outdoor” gas supply line.

Securely tighten all gas connections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 11” (28 cm) water column.

Examples of a qualified person include:

licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149.1 - latest edition.

IMPORTANT: Grill must be connected to a regulated gas supply.

Refer to the model/serial rating plate for information on the type of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, check with your local gas supplier.

Gas Conversion:

No attempt shall be made to convert the grill from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas type without consulting the serving gas supplier. The conversion kit supplied with grill must be used. See “Gas Conversions” section for instructions.

Gas Pressure Regulator

The gas pressure regulator supplied with this grill must be used. The inlet (supply) pressure to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:

LP Gas:

Operating pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP

Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (27.9 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP

Natural Gas:

Operating pressure: 4" (10.2 cm) WCP

Inlet (supply) pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP maximum.

Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet (supply) pressure.

Burner Requirements for High Altitude

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).

For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level. Orifice conversion is required. See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

Gas Supply Line Pressure Testing

Testing above ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge):

The grill and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Testing below ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge) or lower:

The grill 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Gas Connection Requirements

20 lb LP Gas Fuel Tank

This grill is equipped for use with a 20 lb LP gas fuel tank (fuel tank not supplied). A gas pressure regulator/hose assembly is supplied.

It is also design-certified by CSA International for local LP gas supply or for Natural gas with appropriate conversion.

A. Gas pressure regulator/hose assembly

The 20 lb LP gas fuel tank must be mounted and secured.
