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"
(10mm) 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 feet (0-1372
meters) above sea level using the standard burner
orifice sizes (marked with an "*" in Table 4). For
Maximum
elevations above 4500 feet, contact your gas
supplier or qualified service technician.
10.5" WC
(2.62 kPa)
Deration - At higher elevations, the amount
13.0" WC
of BTU fuel value delivered must be reduced
(3.24 kPa)
by either:
• Using gas that has been derated by the gas
company.
• By 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/ANSI Z223.1 - latest
High
edition or, in Canada, the CAN/CGA-B149.1
(Hi) 3.5" WC
codes - latest edition.
(0.87 kPa)
Install the appliance according to the regulations
(Hi) 10.0" WC
of the local authorities having jurisdiction and,
(2.49 kPa)
in the USA, the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA
54 / ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or, in Canada,
the CAN/CGA-B149.1 - latest edition.
Flame breadth, height and width will diminish
4% for every 1,000 feet of altitude.
In Canada - CAN/CGA-2.17-M91 (R2009) (high
altitude): THE CONVERSION SHALL BE CAR-
RIED OUT BY A MANUFACTURER'S AUTHO-
RIZED REPRESENTATIVE, IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MANU-
FACTURER, PROVINCIAL OR TERRITORIAL
AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION AND
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
