Hearth and Home Technologies GO35-IPI-LP Appliance Certification, Gas Supply Connection

•This appliance must have a screen in place while the appliance is in operation and, unless other provisions for combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an opening for introduction of combustion air.

•Solid fuels shall not be burned in a fireplace where a decorative appliance is installed.

•If glass doors are present, the glass doors must be fully opened while appliance is in operation.

WARNING

Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

D. Appliance Certification

This appliance is design certified by Omni International un- der the ANSI Z21.60b-2004 or CSA 2.26b-2004, Decora- tive Appliances for Installation in Solid-fuel Burning Fireplaces. Installation and the provisions for combustion and ventilation air must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the CSA B149.1, Natural

Gas and Propane Installation Code.

E. Gas Supply Connection

A 3/8 in. flared fitting has been installed on the gas valve inlet at the factory. Ensure fittings are of the appropriate size and type on the gas line connection. If the tubing has to be cut to length be sure to use the proper cutting and flaring tool. Also, be careful not to crimp the tubing while bending. If the tubing becomes crimped, do not use for installation.

Gas resistant pipe compound must be used on all threaded male connections to ensure a tight seal.

F. Gas Pressure

Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made following NFPA51.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

High pressure will damage valve.

•Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures above 1/2 psig.

•Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Verify inlet pressures.

•High pressure may cause overfire condition.

•Low pressure may cause explosion.

Install regulator upstream of valve if line pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.

•Gas Supply Pressure: Minimum inlet gas supply pressure must be 7.0 in. W.C. for natural gas or 11 in. W.C. for LP gas for the purpose of input adjustment. Maximum inlet gas pressure must not exceed 10.5 in. W.C. for natural gas or 13 in. W.C. for LP gas. The gas line supplying the appliance must be sufficient size to furnish the appropriate supply pressure to the appliance while operating in the

“High” setting.

•Pressure tap screws must be closed before turning gas on to the appliance.

•Gas Line Pressure Test: Perform pressure test according to state and local code (if pressure exceeds 1/2 in. psi (3.5 kPa)) before appliance is connected. Be sure to release air pressure from the gas line before connection is made to the appliance. Excessive pressure will damage the gas control and may cause a gas leak.

•Gas Leak Test: Make sure the gas connections are tight. Turn on the gas and coat each joint with a non-corrosive gas leak check solution. Air bubbles will form indicating any leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME OR ANY TYPE OF

IGNITION SOURCE TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. All leaks must be corrected before proceeding with installation.

•The appliance must only be installed in a solid-fuel burning fireplace with the flue damper clamped open according to Tables 1 and 2. The fireplace must be constructed of non-combustible material.

•The minimum permanent free opening (in square inches) that must be provided by the fireplace chimney or damper to vent the flue gases is provided in Tables 1 and 2. If the free opening is smaller than the specified area, do not use this appliance.

•The damper must be removed or fixed in a manner in which will secure it open. Some jurisdictions require the damper to be removed or permanently welded fully open. Check with state and local codes.

•Be sure that the chimney is completely unobstructed to ensure proper ventilation of flue gases including carbon monoxide (CO). CO (a poisonous gas) is tasteless, odorless, colorless and undetectable without proper equipment.

•Refer to Table 3 to determine minimum fireplace opening requirements before proceeding.
