This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch (13 mm) gas supply line.
To install the gas supply line:
•A listed 1/2 inch (13 mm) manual
•A 1/8 inch (3 mm) N.P.T. plugged tapping, acces- sible for test gauge connection, should be provided for in the gas supply line leading to the unit’s shut- off valve.
•Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of the insert.
•Open the lower grille, insert the gas supply line through the gas line hole, and connect it to the shut- off valve.
•When attaching the pipe, support the control so that the lines are not bent or torn.
•After the gas line installation is complete, use a soap solution to carefully check all gas connections for leaks.
