Connecting gas to rangetop
This rangetop is designed to operate at a pressure of 4"(10.2cm) of water column
on Natural Gas (NG) or 10"(25.4cm) of water column on Liquid Propane Gas
(LPG).
This rangetop can be convert for use on Liquid Propane Gas (LPG). When using
this rangetop on LPG, conversion must be made by a qualified installer before
attempting to operate the rangetop on that gas. LPG kit can be purchase from
authorized Gasland dealer or contact customer service for further assistant.
For correct operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator should
be between 4"(10.2cm) and 5"(12.7cm) of water column. For LPG, the pressure
supplied must be between 10"(25.4cm) and 12"(30.5cm) of water column.
When checking for correct operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at
least 1"(2.5cm) more than the operating manifold pressure as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the rangetop manifold must remain
in the supply line regardless of Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LPG) is
being used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the rangetop to the gas
supply should be 3 ft (91.4cm) max in length for easy installation. In Canada,
flexible connectors should be single wall metal connectors less than 6 ft
(182.9cm) in length. Shut off the main gas supply valve before removing the old
cooking appliance (if applicable) and leave it off until the new hook-up has been
completed. Don't forget to relight the pilots on other gas appliances when you
turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the rangetop, the use of a CSA
certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes
require a hard-piped connection. Never reuse an old connector when installing a
new rangetop. If the hard piping method is used, you must carefully align the
pipe.
To prevent gas leaks, use pipe joint compound resistant to NG on all male
external pipe threads.
1. In an easily accessible location, install a service manual gas shut off valve. Be
sure everyone operating the rangetop knows where and how to shut off the
gas supply to the cook top.
2. Use a flexible gas line to connect to the 0.5"(1.3cm) fitting, located on the
bottom right hand corner underneath the rangetop.
