GAS LINE HOOK-UP
WARNING: Gas line hookup should be done by your gas supplier or a qualified service person.
WARNING: Before you pro- ceed, make sure your gas supply is OFF.
A manual shutoff valve has been included in the applianceʼs gas supply system. You may consider installing an extra gas shutoff valve outside the
DESA recommends that a black iron gas line be routed from the gas source, through a sediment trap (shown in Figure 18) and into the appliance. Once connected through the appliance, a flexible gas line may be used for ease of installation to gas control valve (see Figure 19, page 13).
Before connecting the black iron gas line to the inside of the appliance a sediment trap must be included outside the appliance between the gas line and the gas shutoff valve. It must extend down three (3) inches beyond the center of the pipe. Prepare incoming black iron gas line with teflon tape or pipe joint compound (Check with local building codes).
