Electrical Supply; Gas Supply - Pacific energy Tofino Series Installation Instructions Manual

Figure 33: Electrical connection.
Note: SIT controlled installations require that an electrical outlet be installed either into an existing
fireplace cavity before the Tofino is installed, or alternatively, the power cord can access a pre-existing
power outlet elsewhere in the room by way of knock-out openings located on either side of the
backing plate (Figure 34).
NOTE: The appliance, when installed must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code,
CSA C22.1.
Figure 35: Tofino gas connection.
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a qualified service person in accordance with all building codes.
This section is intended as a guide for qualified technicians installing this appliance. Consult local and/or
national building codes before proceeding.
• Gas supply line connection is located on the left rear side of the insert (Figure 35). Gas connection
accepts a 3/8" N.P.T. fitting. Correct gas line diameter must be used to assure proper operation and
pressure. Do not use external threads for gas connections. Use internal threads only.
• A drip leg must be installed in the gas supply line going to the gas control valve to minimize the possibility
of any loose scale or dirt within the gas supply line from entering the control valve.
Check local codes for additional requirements.
Turn on the gas supply and check that all connections are tight and leak free.
