Installation

Gas Line Requirements

! The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI 223.1 and
the requirements listed below.
! The fireplace and gas control 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). For pressures under
1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.
! Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the fireplace.

Fuel

• This fireplace is designed either for natural gas or for propane (but not for both). Check the
sticker on the top of the gas control valve to make sure the correct fuel is used.

Gas Line Connection

• A manual shutoff valve is required within 3' (915 mm) of the fireplace. It should be placed upstream
of the flex line (if used) and may be installed behind the access door inside the fireplace.

Gas Inlet Pressure:

• If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough, the supply regulator is
adequately adjusted, and the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
• The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank)
should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed above. Contact the local gas supplier if the
regulator is at an improper pressure.
Electrical Connection
The heater is supplied with a plug and cord, simply plug into a 3 pin household socket outlet which is
properly earthed.
Warning: In order to avoid hazard, any electrical work performed on this equipment or its associated
wiring, should only be done by persons authorized by the supplier or similarly qualified persons.
The socket outlet for this heater shall be installed near the heater and shall be easily accessible for
service or operation. For remote switching of the fan, consult a suitably qualified electrician.
