Installation Instructions

This range is designed for an operating manifold pressure of 4” or 5” water column (w.C.) on natural gas (see rating label on product) or 10” w.C. on lP gas.

This range comes from the factory set for use on natural gas, but it is convertible for use on LP gas. If you decide to use this range on LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to operate the range.

For proper operation, the inlet pressure to the regulator should be at least 1” W.C. above the operating manifold pressure but must not exceed 14” W.C.

The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used. When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1” greater than the operating manifold pressure.

A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of ½” and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. In Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors no longer than 6 feet in length.

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the new hookup has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.

Never use an old connector when installing a new range. If the hard piping method is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the connection is made.

To prevent gas leaks, put pipe-joint compound on,

or wrap pipe-thread tape with Teflon* around, all male (external) pipe threads.

a. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sure everyone operating the range knows where and how to shut off the gas supply to the range.

B. Install male 1/2″ flare union adapter to the 1/2″ NPT internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.

When installing the range from the front, remove the 90° elbow for easier installation.

C. Install male 1/2″ or 3/4″ flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking care to back up the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.

D. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.

e. When all connections have been made, make sure

all range controls are in the off position and turn on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test the gas supply system of the residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual shut-off valve.
