Provide An Adequate Gas Supply; Seal The Openings - Frigidaire FPGH3077R Installation Instructions Manual

30" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Gas and Electric Entry Preparation
2.1
• The hatched areas are the locations where the gas
line can enter the cabinet (fi gure 5a).
• The recommended position for the gas entry line is
located at 7" (17,8 cm) from the left cabinet wall and
2" (5,1 cm) from the fl oor (fi gure 5a).
• The shaded area is the location where the electric
outlet can be located (fi gure 5a).
• If you are using a through the fl oor gas entry,
remove the line protector shield from the bottom of
the unit to allow access for the pipe line (fi gure 5b).
• We recommend to install a pipe elbow right out of
the fl oor or wall towards the center of the unit to
ease the installation.

Provide an adequate Gas Supply

When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed
to operate on 4" (10,16 cm) water column (1,0 kPa)
Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure
regulator is connected to the range manifold and
MUST be connected in series with the gas supply line.
If LP/Propane conversion kit has been used, follow
instructions provided with the kit for converting the
pressure regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstruct the fl ow of combustion and ventilation air.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14" (35,56 cm)
of water column pressure (3,5 kPa). The inlet pressure
to the regulator must be at least 1" (0,25 kPa) greater
than the regulator manifold pressure setting. Examples:
If regulator is set for natural gas 4" (10,16 cm) manifold
pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 5" (12,60 cm);
if regulator has been converted for LP/Propane gas 10"
(25,4 cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be at
least 11" (27,9 cm).
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4H.

The gas supply line should be ½" or ¾" I.D.
