The Gas

Supply Line

NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance with local building codes by a qualified installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).

NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas supply line should be purged of any trapped air.

NOTE: Consult local building codes to properly size the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch (13 mm) hook-up at the unit.

This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch (13 mm) gas supply line. To install the gas supply line:

•A listed (and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved) 1/2 inch (13mm) tee-handle manual shut- off valve and a listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13mm) inlet of the con- trol valve. NOTE: If substituting for these compo- nents, please consult local codes for compliance.

•The gas line may be run from either side of the fireplace provided the hole in the outer wrap does not exceed 2 inches in diameter and it does not penetrate the airtight firebox.

•The gap between the supply piping and gas access hole can be plugged with non-combus- tible insulation to prevent cold air infiltration.

•Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of the fireplace.

•Remove decorative door by lifting up away to gain access to the gas control and shut-off valve, insert the gas supply line through the gas line hole, and connect it to the shut-off valve.

•When attaching the pipe, support the control so that the lines are not bent or torn.

•After the gas line installation is complete, all connections must be tightened and checked for leaks with a commercially available, non-corro- sive leak check solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following testing.

!WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
