Fig. 6 Typical gas supply installation.

Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution applied with a brush no larger than 1” (25 mm). Never apply soap and water solution with a spray bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.

The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.

The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro- vide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.

When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 6) See the gas specifica- tions for pressure details and ratings.

Remote Switch Installation

Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for this gas appliance into a 120v power supply.

1.Thread wire through the electrical knockout located on either side of fireplace. Do not cut wire or insula- tion on metal edges. Ensure that wire is protected.

Run the other end to a conveniently located wall receptacle box.

2.Attach wire to switch and install switch into recepta- cle box. Attach cover plate to switch.

3.Connect wiring to gas valve. (Fig. 7)

EB-1 Electrical Box

The fireplace, when installed, must be elec- trically connected and grounded in accor- dance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code.

For USA installations, follow the local codes and the national Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70.

It is strongly suggested that the wiring of the EB-1 Electrical Junction Box be carried out by a licensed electrician.

Ensure that the power to the supply line has been disconnected before commenc-

ing this procedure.
