The dimensions shown indicate the location of the gas line inlet flange in the sleeve. The support members of the built- in structure must not impede passage of the gas lines.

Area should be kept clear of sharp, jagged, or extremely abrasive surfaces to avoid possible damage to gas supply lines. Exercise caution when pulling gas lines through built-in structure.

Note: Leave an access in the structure for gas supply and regulator service.

TYPICAL GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION

WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL.

General Specifications for Piping

Note - Contact your local municipality for building codes regulating outdoor gas barbecue installations. In absence of Local Codes, you must conform to the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1.

This barbecue is designed to operate at 4.5 inches of water column pressure. Use only the regulator supplied with the cooking module.

A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors, and be accessible, not in the “built-in” structure. An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible location near the supply line.

CAUTION: If young children are in the area, a locking valve should be considered.

Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to the action of natural gas when gas connections are made.

The gas connections must be firmly attached to rigid, permanent construction.

The information provided in this manual is general for typical installations. We cannot cover all possible installation ideas. We recommend prior to installation that you contact your municipality for local building codes and your local fire department for installation verification. You can also call Weber-Stephen Products Co. at 1-888-33SUMMIT (1-888-337-8664) and we will try and answer any questions you may have.

Gas line piping

If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet, use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be used for lengths greater than 50 feet.

Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyethylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of .062 inch; or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe.

Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic feet of gas.

Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use.

Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may corrode the piping, must be protected against corrosion in an approved manner.

Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.

Test connections

All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for leaks in accordance with local codes and all listed procedures in the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1.

DANGER

Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the area while you check for gas leaks. This will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property.

If you have any questions, contact the Weber-Stephen Customer Service Center at 1-888-33-SUMMIT (1-888-337-8664).
