SECTION 8
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
THIS SECTION DEMONSTRATES THE PROPER INSTALLATION AND TESTING OF THE Low Voltage Pans & Burners.
STEP 1 | SELECTING A LOCATION
Please see Section 5 on Selecting a location for instructions.
STEP 2 | VENTILATION & ENCLOSURE CONSTRUCTION
Please see Sections 6 & 10 on ventilation & enclosure construction instructions.
Confirm mounting brackets are used with bowls (mortared bowls will prevent proper venting and
will cause electronics to prematurely quit working).
Ensure lava rock media is not overfilled and do NOT cover the pilot for electronic systems.
STEP 3 | GAS CONNECTION
Please see Section 3 for warnings.
Place a ball valve close to the gas piping coming from the building for safety purposes.
Gas Flow Pressure Requirements | See Figure 1
Please reference figure 1 on the next page – We are looking for 7" (Natural Gas) or 11"
(Propane) Dynamic for optimum flow.
Check dynamic & static gas flow pressure before the Electronic Valve Box with supplied "T".
See Figure 2 for a visual reference. *Note: "T" Only Available with Bowls, for all other units
please test static & dynamic gas pressure from gas riser.
"T" goes in between the gas riser and the electronic valve box. Use the provided hoses to
connect, ensure all gas fittings are tightly secured to prevent to gas leakage.
If the unit has a manifold please See Figure 6, allow space in your design for at minimum 10 inch
height basin for the manifold.
For appliances for use with a fixed fuel piping system and equipped with
an
appliance
shutoff
valve
during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of
½ psi (3.5kPa)
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve(s) during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
the pressures equal to or less that ½ psi (3.5 kPa)
STEP 4 | IGNITION OPTIONS
There are numerous options available to turn on/off your fire feature, you may hard wire the
provided transformer to a UL certified light switch, pool controller, smart home hub, wireless
remote light switch, etc.
Please See Figure 4 for a visual reference on the ignition options.
STEP 5 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTION & TESTING
Place the transformer closer to the fire features (at minimum 5ft away from water & 1ft above
ground on a wall). DO NOT CONNECT 110V DIRECTLY TO THE LOW VOLTAGE VALVE BOX.
Check for incoming (110V) and outgoing voltage (14V) (confirm wire to 14V lead, typically blue wire
is 14V / See Page 16 for Transformer Chart & Guidelines.)
Confirm that appropriate wire gauge is being used, if larger gauge wire is recommended to be
