Installing Bottom Mounting Screw
1.Locate bottom mounting hole. This hole is near bottom on back panel of heater (see Figure 9).
2.Mark screw location on wall.
3.Remove heater from wall.
4.If installing bottom mounting screw into hollow or solid wall, install wall anchor. Follow steps 1 through 5 under Attaching To Wall Anchor Method, page 5. If installing bottom mounting screw into wall stud, drill hole at marked location using 9/64" drill bit.
5.Replace heater on wall.
6.Insert bottom anchor screw through back panel into bottom anchor or drilled hole (see Figure 9).
7.Tighten screw until heater is firmly secured to wall. Do not over tighten.
Note: Do not replace front panel at this time. Replace front panel after making gas connections and checking for leaks (see pages 9 and 10).
1.Remove 90° gas fitting from hardware bag.
2.Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads (see Fig- ure 10). This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged heater valves.
3.Hold gas pressure regulator with wrench when connecting the 90° gas fitting. Do not over tighten connection to regulator. The regulator body could be damaged.
4.Provide propane/LP supply system (see Propane/LP Supply, page 4).
5.Connect fuel gas fitting on hose/regulator assembly to pro- pane/LP tank(s). Turn fuel gas fitting counterclockwise into threads on tank. Tighten firmly using a wrench. IMPORTANT: Position regulator so that hose leaving the regulator is in a horizontal position (see Figure 11). This places the regulator vent in the proper position to protect it from the weather.
6.Connect hose to heater inlet. Tighten firmly using a wrench. You must use the regulator supplied with heater.

WARNING: Review and understand the warnings in the Safety Information section, page 2. They are needed to safely operate this heater. Follow all local codes when using this heater.
WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections for leaks after installation or servicing. 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.
WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.
IMPORTANT: You must use a propane/LP gas supply cylinder that is compatible with the connection device provided with the hose and regulator.
