WARNING: This appliance requires a 1/2" NPT (National Pipe Thread) inlet connection to the pres- sure regulator.

WARNING: A qualified service person must con- nect heater to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

CAUTION: Never connect propane/LP heater di- rectly to the propane/LP supply. This heater requires an external regulator (not supplied). Install the external regulator between the heater and propane/LP supply.

WARNING: Never connect natural gas heater to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas.

Installation Items Needed

Before installing heater, make sure you have the items listed below.

•external regulator [propane/LP only] (supplied by installer)

•piping to stove location (check local codes)

•sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

•equipment shutoff valve *

•test gauge connection *

•sediment trap

•tee joint

•pipe wrench

*A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the optional CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve from your dealer. See Accessories, page 17.

The gas inlet connection for the stove heater is located on the lower right-hand side of the stove when viewed from the front of the unit. The gas connection can be made either through the bottom right side or through the lower back opening as illustrated in Figure 6. Make sure gas log heater is secured to the stove cavity assembly.

For propane/LP units, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure, heater regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 7. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.

CAUTION: For propane/LP units, use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper tub- ing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas volume to heater. If pipe is too small, undue loss of volume will occur.

Installation must include an equipment 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 heater (see Figure 8, page 9).

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

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

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