7.Mark screw locations through holes in mounting brackets (see Figure 12). If installing in a brick-bottom fireplace, mark screw locations in mortar joint of bricks.

8.Remove heater base from fireplace.

9.Drill holes at marked locations using 3/16" drill bit.

10.Attach base assembly to fireplace floor using two masonry screws (in hardware package) (see Figure 12).

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY

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. Propane/LP heaters require an external regulator (not supplied). Install the external regulator between the heater and pro- pane/LP supply.

WARNING: For natural gas units, never connect 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 (supplied by installer)

piping (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 32.

For propane/LP gas, 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 13. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.

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