Make Gas Connection

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Typical flexible connection
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the
smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters (see B
and F in the following illustration).
2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the
other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters,
being certain not to move or turn the gas pressure regulator.
3. Use a ¹⁵⁄₁₆" (2.4 cm) combination wrench and an adjustable
wrench to attach the flexible connector to the adapters.
IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do
not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making
the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause
a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn when tightening
fittings.
