Gas Line Connection
 Installation must be performed by a qualified
installer, service agency, or the gas supplier
(In Massachusetts a licensed
plumber/gasfitter).
 An accessible manual gas shutoff valve is
required on the gas supply to the fireplace and
must be installed upstream of the fireplace gas
valve. A shut-off valve is included with the
fireplace. Check with the local authority
having jurisdiction for any additional
requirements.
 The supply regulator (the regulator that
attaches directly to the residence inlet or the
propane tank) should supply gas at the
required input pressure detailed in the section
"LP Conversion and Turndown Conversion" on
page 5. Contact the local gas supplier if the
regulator is at an improper pressure.
 The gas can be stubbed into the area under
the appliance indicated by the shaded boxes
(see diagrams to the right).
 The appliance comes with a 34" flex.
 Connect the incoming gas line to the flex (the
flex accepts ¾" MPT)
