10. The internal gas lines of the unit were cleaned and closed off with a gas cock
before the unit was shipped from the factory. Free all external gas lines of
lint, dirt, metal chips, sealant, grease, oil, and other contaminants, before you
connect the lines to the kettle.
11. Connect the gas cock of the kettle to the gas service main with 3/4 inch IPS line
or approved equivalent
12. Installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1-1988 (or latest edition). The
unit should be installed in an adequately ventilated room with a provision for
adequate air supply. The best ventilation will utilize a vent hood and exhaust fan
with no direct connection between the vent duct and the flue. Do NOT obstruct
the flue or vent duct after installation.
In Canada, the installation must conform to the CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes
for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local codes.
13. Adequate space for proper service and operation is required. Do NOT block any
air intake spacings to the combustion chamber or obstruct the air flow by piling
or stacking anything near the kettle.
14. After the kettle has been connected to the gas supply, all gas line joints must be
checked for leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. A thick soap
solution or other suitable leak detector should be employed.
15. PRESSURE TEST WARNING
a.
Test pressure exceeding 1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa). During pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at pressures exceeding 1/2 PSIG, the appliance
and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system.
b.
Test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.45kPa.) During pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than
