OWNER’S MANUAL

INSTALLATION

Continued

Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from fireplace (see Figure 16, page 10).

Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating manual shutoff valve to fireplaces.

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 fireplace valves.

CAUTION: Use pipe joint seal- ant that is resistant to liquid pe- troleum (LP) gas.

Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 17. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sedi- ment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into fireplace gas controls. If sedi- ment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.
