Couplings and hose should be installed in the same plane as shown at left. DO NOT OFFSET COUPLINGS – this causes torsional twisting and undue strain causing premature failure.

This is the correct way to install metal hose for vertical travers. Note the single, natural loop.

Allowing a sharp bend, as shown at right, strains and twists the metal hose to a point of early failure at the coupling.

Maintain the minimum or larger bending diameter between the couplings for longest life.

Closing in the diameter at the couplings, as shown at right, creates double bends causing work fatigue failure of the fittings.

In all installations where “self-draining” is not necessary, connect metal hose in a vertical loop.

DO NOT CONNECT METAL HOSE HORIZONTALLY...unless “self-draining”

is necessary then use support on lower plane as shown at left.

CABLE RESTRAINT

Please refer to the illustration below when installing cable restraint on all moveable units.

I-bolt is to be secured to the building using acceptable building construction practices.

DRYWALL CONSTRUCTION

Secure I-bolt to a building stud.

DO NOT attach to drywall only. Also, locate the I-bolt at the same height as the gas service. Preferred installation is approximately six inches to either side of service. Cable restraint must be at least six inches shorter than flexible gas line.

Utilize elbows when necessary to avoid sharp kinks or excessive bending. For ease of movement, install with a “lazy” loop. Gas appliance must be discon- nected prior to maximum movement. (Minimum movement is permissible for hose disconnection.)
