Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.Close equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 5).
2.Pressurize supply piping system by either us- ing compressed air or opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter.
3.Check all joints from gas meter to equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 5). Apply noncorro- sive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4.Correct all leaks at once.

HEARTH KIT ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
1. Determine which side the gas line will be coming into the fireplace.
2. Using a hammer and screw driver, remove knockout plug from the side of the pan that corresponds to the gas line (see Figure 6).
3. Unscrew burner inlet fitting from burner manifold.
4. Place burner manifold in pan with threaded opening facing open knockout plug.
5. Using thread sealant (resistant to the action of propane/LP gas) on larger end of fitting, screw the burner inlet fitting through hole and into burner manifold (see Figure 6). Tighten using a wrench.
6. Using burner clamp, screw, and nut provided, assemble clamp to pan (“U” style and triple burners only). This will hold the burner mani- fold in place.
7. If using optional GA9050A kit, go to Optional GA9050A On/Off Safety Valve/Pilot Kit section for installation instructions. If using optional GA9150A kit, follow instructions included with kit for installation and operation.

Installation and Gas Connection | ||
1.Place the burner pan assembly in the center of the fireplace floor. Make sure the front of pan faces forward.
2.Thread the gas supply fitting to the fireplace gas supply pipe. Use thread sealant.
3.Install adapter fitting onto the burner inlet fitting using thread sealant on male threads of burner inlet fitting (see Figure 7). Adjust to most convenient position.
4.Install the gas connector tube to the gas sup- ply fitting. Carefully shape tube to attach to adapter fitting. Be careful not to cause kinks in tube.
