GAS CONNECTION

The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90o elbow. The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make installation easier, use a listed fl exible connector and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes. Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to consult with your local authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation codes.

For USA installations follow local codes and/or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

When using copper or fl ex connectors use only approved fi ttings.Always provide a union so that gas lines can be easily disconnected for burner and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and fl ex connectors are usually considered to meet this requirement.

Important: Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution or gas leak detector. Do not use open flame for leak testing.

Note: Priortoanypressuretestingofthegas supply piping system that exceeds test pressures of 1/2 psig, this appliancemustbedisconnectedfrom the piping system. If test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig are used then this appliance must be isolated from the piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during the testing.

HIGH ELEVATION
