5 Gas Information

A. Fuel

Before making gas connections ensure appliance being in- stalled is compatible with the available gas type.

B. Gas Pressure

Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made following NFPA51.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Verify inlet pressures.

•High pressure may cause overfire condition.

•Low pressure may cause explosion.

•Verify minimum pressures when other household gas appliances are operating.

Install regulator upstream of valve if line pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.

Pressure requirements for appliance are shown in table be- low. Minimum pressures must be met when other household gas appliances are operating.

Pressure

Natural Gas

Propane

Minimum Inlet Pressure

5.0 in. w.c.

11.0 in. w.c.

Maximum Inlet Pressure

7.0 in. w.c.

14.0 in. w.c.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

High pressure will damage valve.

•Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures above 1/2 psig.

•Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Do NOT change the valve settings.

•This valve has been preset at the factory.

•Changing valve settings may result in fire hazard or bodily injury.

WARNING

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Asphyxiation Risk

•Check all fittings and connections.

•Do not use open flame.

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

Fittings and connections may have loosened during shipping and handling.

WARNING

Shock Risk

Explosion Risk

Do NOT wire 110V to valve.

•Gas Supply Pressure: Minimum inlet gas supply pressure must be 5 in. W.C. for natural gas or 11 in. W.C. for LP gas for the purpose of input adjustment. Maximum inlet gas pressure must not exceed 7.0 in. W.C. for natural gas or 14 in. W.C. for LP gas. The gas line supplying the appliance must be sufficient size to furnish the appropriate supply pressure to the appliance while operating in the “High” setting.

The size and capacity of the LP supply tank must be able to supply LP gas, pressure and capacity for the 180,000 BTU’s required to operate this appliance. Check with your LP gas supplier for appropriate sizing of tank and supply lines.

•Gas Line Pressure Test: Perform pressure test according to state and local code (if pressure exceeds 1/2 in. psi [3.5 kPa]) before appliance is connected. Be sure to release air pressure from the gas line before connection is made to the appliance. Excessive pressure will damage the gas control and may cause a gas leak.

•Gas Leak Test: Make sure the gas connections are tight. Turn on the gas and coat each joint with a non-corrosive gas leak check solution. Air bubbles will form indicating any leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME OR ANY TYPE OF IGNITION SOURCE TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. All leaks must be corrected before proceeding with installation.
