WARNING

Only persons licensed to work with gas piping may make the necessary gas connections to this appliance.

CAUTION

A manual shutoff valve must be installed upstream of the appliance. Union tee and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping point should be installed upstream of the appliance. Figure 34

NOTE : The gas line connection may be made using 1/2" rigid tubing or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to consult your local authorities and the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1, NFPA54. In Canada CSA-B149 (1 or 2) Installation Code.

A listed manual shutoff valve must be installed upstream of the appliance. Union tee and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping point should be installed upstream of the appliance. Figure 34

IMPORTANT: Install main gas valve (equipment shutoff valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the fireplace.

CAUTION

Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating equipment shutoff valve to fire- places.

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged burner system valves.

We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg in supply line as shown in Figure 34. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and burner system. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into the burner system gas controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is installed wrong, burner system may not run properly.
