GAS REQUIREMENTS

Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either Natural or L.P., and make sure the marking on the ap-
pliance rating plate agrees with that of the supply. The rating plate is located on the rear of the grill be-
hind the side burners or on the right side behind the faceplate. An "X" will be marked next to the type
of gas that the unit is orifice for.
L.P. gas installation requires the use of a regulator set for 11"W.C. pressure. Natural gas installation
requires a pressure of 7"W.C.
An installer supplied gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible location. All installer
supplied parts must conform to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
All pipe sealants must be an approved type and resistant to the actions of L.P. and Natural gases.
Never use pipe sealant on flare fittings. All gas connections should be made by a competent technician
and in accordance with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must
comply with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
Gas conversion kits are available from your dealer or ProFire. When ordering have available the model
number, and type of gas (L.P. or Natural) which you need the ProFire grill orificed for. To convert to LP
gas the model # will be GCKLP followed by the model # of your grill. To convert to Natural gas the
model # will be GCKNAT followed by the model number of your grill.
