223.1.Installation should be done by a qualified installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).

Note: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts ap- proved) 1/2 inch (13 mm) T-handle manual shut-off valve and flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13 mm) control valve inlet.

•If substituting for these components, please consult local codes for compliance.

WARNING

Gas Leak Risk

•Support control when attaching pipe to prevent bending gas line.

Note: The gap between supply piping and gas access hole may be caulked with high temperature caulk or stuffed with non-combustible, unfaced insulation to prevent cold air infiltration.

Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the appliance.

Before making the gas connection, ensure that the appliance you are installing is designed for the type of gas being supplied. This information can be found on the ratings label under the appliance. If the appliance has been converted to propane (LP), the valve cover should have a label stating that the appliance has been converted to propane.

Connect the gas line at the 3/8 in. (10 mm) pipe connector on the valve at the back of appliance. We recommend connecting the appliance with an approved flex gas line. If flex gas lines are not approved in your area, you must connect a hard pipe to the gas hookup.

You must supply a manual shut-off valve in a visible location within 3 ft. (914 mm) of the appliance.

Ensure that gas line does not come in contact with outer wrap of appliance. Follow local codes.

Incoming gas line should be piped into the valve compartment and connected to the 1/2 inch connection on the manual shutoff valve.

When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000 feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a 2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. If the heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
