INSTALLATION
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
1. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
2. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient
location. Route 2 strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit.
The recommended maximum lead length depends on wire size:
1
2
3
Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the gas valve.
3. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve to
the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas valve
and the copper tubing or flex connector. DO NOT KINK THE FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR.
4. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.
