Natural Gas (Ng) - Ferno SA-3BLP-01 Care & Use Manual

NATURAL GAS
Ferno Grills recommends that only a qualified
professional performs the required gas hook-ups
on this product.
1. To ensure satisfactory performance, the gas
supply line must be sized to accommodate the
TOTAL BTU requirements of all the gas fired
equipment that will be connected to this line.
Minimum pipe size should be 1/2" I.D.,
however, 3/4" I.D. is recommended for long
runs and best performance. For this, a 3/4" FIP
x 1/2" MIP reducer fitting will be required (not
supplied).
2. Calculate the total BTU output of all appliances
that will be attached to this line and use the
chart below to determine allowable run line
distances. Failure to meet these minimum run
requirements will reduce the performance of
the grill and any other appliances connected to
this line. In general, always keep the supply line
run as SHORT as possible. The longer the gas
run line, the lower the gas pressure and the
smaller number of BTU's the line can handle.
3. A gas shut-off valve must be installed in an
easily accessible location, between the gas
appliances and the gas line. This valve should
be installed by a qualified plumber.
4. All pipe joints must be sealed with threading
tape or pipe joint compound. The first 2
threads should be free and clear of any
compound to avoid the compound from
entering into the pipe. Never use threading
compound on flare fittings.
