Gas Line Installation

When purging the gas lines, the front
window frame assembly must be re-
moved.
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the rear of
the appliance as well as the bottom. Knockouts are
provided on the bottom behind the valve to allow for
the gas pipe installation and testing of any gas connec-
tion. It is most convenient to bring the gas line in from
the rear right side of the valve as this allows fan instal-
lation or removal without disconnecting the gas line.
The gas line connection can be made with properly
tinned 3/8" copper tubing, 3/8" rigid pipe or an ap-
proved flex connector. Since some municipalities have
additional local codes, it is always best to consult your
local authority and the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the USA or the CSA-B149.1
installation code.

Always check for gas leaks with a mild
soap and water solution. Do not use an
open flame for leak testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type
pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to
provide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or flex connector use only ap-
proved fittings. Always provide a union when using
black iron pipe so the gas line can be easily discon-
nected for burner or fan servicing. See gas specifica-
tion for pressure details and ratings.
The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test
pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this
and any other gas appliance control from the gas line
when pressure testing.

Alternate Switch Location

The remote switch can be installed on the front/side of

bracket provided and screw the bracket to either side
of the frame, lining up the screws with the pre-punched
holes. (Fig. 7)
