|
| Never connect fireplace to private | |
|
| commonly known as wellhead gas. | |
|
|
| |
| IMPORTANT: Check gas line pressure before connecting fireplace to gas line. Gas | ||
| line pressure must be no greater than 14 inches of water. If gas line pressure is | ||
| higher, fireplace regulator damage could occur. | ||

| WARNING ICON | G 001CAUTION |
|
|
| |
|
| Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. | |
|
| tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use | |
|
| pipe of 1/2" or greater diameter to allow proper gas volume to | |
|
| fireplace. If pipe is too small, undue loss of pressure will occur. | |
|
|
| |
| Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. | ||
| Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream | ||
| from fireplace (see Figure 16). |
| |
| Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant | ||
| from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged fireplace valves. | ||
|
|
|
|
|
| WARNING ICON | G 001CAUTION |
|
| Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas. | |
|

Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 16. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into fireplace controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.
