This appliance and it’s appliance main valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ PSI (3.5kPa)

This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa)

3.31Centre the appliance in the appliance opening, making sure the appliance has enough room behind it for the gas line to run behind the log set under the log support.

3.3.2Route the gas line and sizing using piping ½” diameter or greater to allow the full volume of gas to the appliance. The routing of the gas line has to be done to local and / or national codes.

3.3.5When using propane, a regulator must be used between the tank and the outside wall of the house to ensure the line pressure does not exceed 14” w.c.

3.3.6Check gas connections with a gas detection device to test for leaks in the system. Soapy water mixture can also be used to check for leaks.

3.3.7Once all the gas connections are tested for leaks, start the appliance. Follow the lighting instructions to ensure the appliance is working properly before ﬁnishing.
