Step 5. The Gas Supply Line
NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualified installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality.
(In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation
must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter).
NOTE: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas
supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
NOTE: Consult local building codes to properly size
the gas supply line leading to the 1/2 inch
(13 mm) hook-up at the unit.
This gas fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2 inch
(13 mm) gas supply line. To install the gas supply line:
• A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved)
1/2 inch (13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a
listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2
inch (13mm) inlet of the control valve. NOTE: If substi-

Step 6. Gas Pressure Requirements
Pressure requirements for Heat-N-Glo Lifestyle Products gas
fireplaces are shown in the table below.
A one-eighth (1/8) inch (3 mm) N.P.T. plugged tapping is
provided on the inlet and outlet side of the gas control for a
test gauge connection to measure the manifold pressure.
The fireplace and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess
of one-half (1/2) psig (3.5 kPa).
The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than one-half (1/2) psig (3.5 kPa).
