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 Radiance may be converted from one gas to another using the appropri- ate Fuel Conversion Kit listed on Page 45.
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 additional local codes, be sure to consult your local authority.
In Canada; consult the local authority and
Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.
Light the pilot according to the directions on Page 30, before going to the next step.
Burner Information
The appliance must only use the gas specified on the rating plate, unless converted using a Vermont Castings Fuel Conversion Kit. To convert from Natural Gas to LP use Kit 20012729 or 20012900. To convert from LP to Natural Gas use Kit 20012899 or 20012902.

CAUTION
This appliance should only be connected by a qualified gas technician. Test to
confirm manifold pressures as specified below.
The Radiance 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 Radiance 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 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” natural gas supply line with an input of 38,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 3.5” between minimum inlet supply of 5.5” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.
In order to connect Propane, use a fitting with 1/2” NPT on the valve side and 1/2” propane gas sup- ply line with an input of 36,000 BTUs at a manifold pressure of 10.0” between a minimum inlet supply of 11.0” w.c. and maximum of 14.0” w.c.
