CONNECTING FIREPLACE TO GAS SUPPLY

OWNER’S MANUAL

INSTALLATION

Continued

We recommend that you install a sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 18, page 10. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and heater. Lo- cate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into fireplace gas controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.

CONNECTING FIREPLACE TO GAS SUPPLY

Installation Items Needed

5/16" hex socket wrench or nut-driver

Phillips screwdriver

sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas, not provided)

1.Remove front window assembly. Lo- cate two phillips-head screws at top corners of front window assembly. Re- move and save these screws. Carefully lift front window assembly up and out from fireplace front.

2.Remove screws that attach log base as- sembly to fireplace (see Figure 20). Care- fully lift up log base assembly and re- move from fireplace without disturbing the brick liner panels (see Figure 20).

Figure 21 - Attaching Flexible Gas Lines Together CAUTION: Do not pick up log base assembly by burners. This could damage burners. Only handle base by grates.

3.Route flexible gas line provided by in- staller from equipment shutoff valve to fireplace. Route flexible gas supply line through one of the access holes.

NOTICE: Most building codes do not permit concealed gas con- nections. A flexible gas line is provided to allow accessibility from the fireplace (see Figure 21). The flexible gas supply line con- nection to the equipment shutoff valve should be accessible.

4.Attach gas line from gas supply (see Figure 21). Check gas connection of flexible gas line attached to gas regu- lator of fireplace (see Figure 21).

5.Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Connections, page 12.

6.Replace log base assembly back into fireplace. Feed flexible gas line into fire- place base area while replacing log base assembly. Make sure the entire flexible gas line is in fireplace base area. Reat- tach log base assembly to fireplace with screws removed in step 2.
