The gas line connection can be made using ½" rigid tubing or an approved fl ex
connector. Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to
consult your local authorities and the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI.Z223.1, NFPA54. In Canada CSA-B149 (1 or 2) Installation Code.
A CSA design-certifi ed equipment shutoff valve must be installed upstream of the
appliance. Contact your dealer for the purchase of CSA design-certifi ed equipment
shutoff valve. The gas regulator block is equipped with a screw type pressure test point
(inlet pressure tap in fi gure 18). Therefore it is not necessary to provide a ⅛" test point
up stream of the control.
The CSA design-certifi ed shutoff valve (main gas valve) must be installed in an
accessible location. This main gas valve is used for opening or closing off the gasfl ow
to the appliance.
Cement and chalk can damage the piping and can, in turn, lead to gas leaks.
Disassembly and assembly of pipes and cables:
If necessary for mounting, all pipe compression fi ttings and cable connectors can be
temporarily disassembled. After mounting, carefully reassemble all pipes and cables.
Check afterwards all compression fi ttings for leaks and that all electric connections are
properly connected.
Screw the thermocouple connection (and thermocouple interrupter)
manually into the gas regulator block. Afterwards, carefully fasten a
half turn with a spanner.
Note: Check that the fl exible burner pipes are correctly connected! The gas connection
of the gas valve "rear burner" must be connected to the "rear burner"!
See fi gure 16 and Chapter; DIAGRAM ELECTRICITY AND GAS.
Switching over the fl exible burner pipes during assembly can lead to an explosive
ignition. Prevent this at all costs!
The appliance must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding ½ psi
(= 3.45 kPa = 34.5 mbar). Isolate or disconnect this and any other gas appliance control
from the gas line when pressure testing.
After connection of the gas supply, check that all connections are completely gas tight
using soapy water (mixture of 50/50 water and soap solution) or a leak tester.
