Plateau outdoor decorative gas appliance

Although this decorative gas appliance is designed to operate outdoors safely, rain and other sources of moisture may enter the burner area, which will
cause water to collect inside the base of the unit.
To prevent excessive water collection, the installer should provide a way to drain the water from the base of the unit by building or installing a
water collector before positioning the decorative gas appliance in its location.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1)
Remove 2 screws to remove the bracket from the bottom of the burner - this will allow access to the drain hole at the base of the unit.
2)
On the exposed drain hole (see location below), install a PVC 3/4" threaded coupling reducer going from the top of the pan, down through the hole.
Apply a silicone-based sealant around the base and threads before installation. Cut notches into the top of the coupling reducer to prevent water
pooling.
3)
Holding the reducer coupling with a wrench, thread a 90° PVC elbow (from the underside of the unit) to the reducer until it is tight to the metal.
4)
Reinstall bracket from Step 1.
Note: To assure proper drainage, that decorative gas appliance must be installed on a leveled surface
5)
Add additional piping to route the drain to an appropriate location.
NOTE: Install a drain on both burners on the PTO60.
