NOTICE: Most building codes do not permit con- cealed gas connections. A flexible gas line is pro- vided to allow accessibility from the fireplace (see Figure 23). The flexible gas supply line connection to the equipment shutoff valve should be accessible.

2.Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads of gas connec- tor attached to flexible gas line (see Figure 23).

3.Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Connections.

4.Feed flexible gas line into fireplace base area. Make sure the entire flexible gas line is in fireplace mantel base area.

CAUTION: Avoid damage to regulator. Hold gas regulator with wrench when connecting it to gas piping and/or fittings.

WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections, internal and external to unit, for leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all leaks at once.

WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for a leak. Apply a noncorrosive leak detection fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.

CAUTION: Make sure external regulator has been installed between propane/LP supply and fireplace. See guidelines under Connecting to Gas Supply, pages 12 and 13.

Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System

Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)

1.Disconnect appliance with its appliance main gas valve (con- trol valve) and equipment shutoff valve from gas supply piping system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig will damage

fireplace regulator.

2.Cap off open end of gas pipe where equipment shutoff valve was connected.

3.Pressurize supply piping system by either opening propane/LP sup- ply tank valve for propane/LP gas or opening main gas valve lo- cated on or near gas meter for natural gas, or using compressed air.

4.Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.

5.Correct all leaks at once.

6.Reconnect heater and equipment shutoff valve to gas supply. Check reconnected fittings for leaks.

Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)

1.Close equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 24).

2.Pressurize supply piping system by either opening propane/LP sup- ply tank valve for propane/LP gas or opening main gas valve lo- cated on or near gas meter for natural gas, or using compressed air.

3.Check all joints from gas meter for natural gas (see Figure 25) or propane/LP supply tank to equipment shutoff valve for pro- pane/LP gas (see Figure 26, page 15). Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.

4.Correct all leaks at once.
