manifold gas pressure requirements:

Test gauge connections are provided on
the front of the millivolt and electronic gas
control valve (identified IN for the inlet and
OUT for the manifold side). The control
valves have a 3/8 in. (10 mm) NPT thread
inlet and outlet side of the valve (refer to
Figures 1 and 2).
Propane tanks are at pressures that will
cause damage to valve components. Verify
that the tanks have step down regulators to
reduce the pressure to safe levels.
The appliance and its appliance main gas
valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its
equipment shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi
(3.5 kPa).
Orifice Sizes—Sea Level to High Altitude
(All Models)
These appliances are tested and approved
for installation at elevations of 0–4500 ft
(0–1372 m) above sea level using the
standard burner orifice sizes (marked with an
"*" in Table 4). For elevations above 4500 ft,
contact your gas supplier or qualified service
technician.
Deration—At higher elevations, the amount
of BTU fuel value delivered must be reduced
by either:
• Using gas that has been derated by the gas
company.
• Changing the burner orifice to a smaller
size as regulated by the local authorities
having jurisdiction and by the (USA)
National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54—latest
edition / ANSI Z223.1-2009 or, in Canada,
the CAN/CSA-B149.1 codes—latest
edition.

• Installation and repair must be done by
a plumber or gas fitter licensed in the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• The flexible gas line connector used shall
not exceed 36 in. (92 cm) in length.
• The individual manual shut-off must be a
T-handle type valve.
Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
horizontal terminations installed less than
seven (7) feet above the finished grade
must comply with the following additional
requirements:
• A hard wired carbon monoxide detector
with an alarm and battery back-up must
be installed on the floor level where the
gas fireplace is installed. The carbon
monoxide detector must comply with
NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL 2034 listed and be
ISA certified.
• A metal or plastic identification plate must
be permanently mounted to the exterior
of the building at a minimum height of
eight (8) feet above grade and be directly
in line with the horizontal termination.
The sign must read, in print size no less
than one-half (1/2) inch in size, GAS VENT
DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL
OBSTRUCTIONS.
