Dutchwest Natural Vent Gas Heater

Attach the first section of venting to the B-vent adapter. Depending on the length of the individual venting sections and the lengths of the decorative pipe, you may need to slip the decorative pipe over the venting sections before attaching upper sections to lower ones. The sections of decorative pipe should be oriented with their seams (if any) toward the wall; sections usually do not need to be fastened at each joint, other than slip sections. The decorative pipe need not be fastened to the locating bracket on the stove. If the layout includes a slip section, this should be the last section of pipe vis- ible in the room at the ceiling. Refer to Page 7, Figure 6

for details on joining the decorative pipe at the ceiling.

Connect the Gas Supply Line

Check the Rating Plate attached by a steel cable to the firebox, to confirm that you have the appropriate firebox for the type of fuel to be used. The Dutchwest may be converted from one gas to another using the appropri- ate Fuel Conversion Kit listed on Page 23.

CAUTION

This appliance should only be connected by a qualified gas technician. Test to

confirm manifold pressures as specified below.

The Dutchwest Heater and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

The Dutchwest Heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi- vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

There must be a gas shutoff between the stove and the supply.

In order to connect Natural Gas, use a fitting with 3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” natural gas supply line with an input of 28,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 3.5” and a minimum inlet supply pressure of 5.5” w.c.

In order to connect Propane, use a fitting with 3/8” NPT nipple on the valve side and 1/2” pro- pane gas supply line with an input of 26,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” and a mini- mum inlet supply pressure of 11.0” w.c.

In the U.S.; Gas connection should be made in ac- cordance with current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. Since some municipalities have addi- tional local codes, be sure to consult you local authority.

In Canada; consult the local authority and CSA-B149.1 installation code.

Connect the gas supply and test for leaks. Use a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and water to test for leaks at gas fittings and joints. Apply water/soap solution with brush only - do not over apply. NEVER test with an open flame. Light the pilot according to the directions on Page 14, before going to the next step.
