NATURAL GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A NATURAL GAS SERVICE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH (P.S.I.) LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.)/PROPANE GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A L.P. GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 P.S.I.). INLET PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 0.5 P.S.I. CAN DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE PRESSURE REGULATOR AND OTHER GAS COMPONENTS IN THIS APPLIANCE AND CAN RESULT IN A GAS LEAK.
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1” water column pressure above manifold pressure shown on serial plate.
Check Pressure of House Piping System
1.The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column).
2.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column).
A GAS
The house piping and/or range connector used to connect the range to the main gas supply must be clean, free of metal shavings, rust, dirt and liquids (oil or water). Dirt, etc. in the supply lines can work its way into the range manifold and in turn cause failure of the gas valves or controls and clog burners and/or pilot orifices.
Always use a new flexible connector. Do not use exsisting flexible connector.
NOTE: It is recommended to use a CSA certified flexible connector no longer than 36” (91.4 cm) with a minimum BTU/HR rating of 88,200.
