GAS LINE HOOK-UP
WARNING: Before you proceed, make sure your
gas supply is OFF.
WARNING: Gas line hookup should be done by
your gas supplier or a qualified service person.
An equipment shutoff valve has been included in the appliance's gas
supply system. You may consider installing an extra gas shutoff
valve outside the appliance's enclosure (check with local codes)
where it can be accessed more conveniently with a key through a
wall as shown in Figure 38.
Route a 1/2" NPT black iron gas line towards the appliance coming
in from the left. It is recommended to route the pipe between the
stand of the firebox and the surround of the fireplace (see Figure 39).
IMPORTANT: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig.
(3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual equipment shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.5 kPa).
CAUTION: Do not kink flexible gas line.

CAUTION: Compounds used on threaded joints
of gas piping shall be resistant to the action of
Liquefied Petroleum (LP or propane), and should be
applied lightly to ensure excess sealant does not
enter the gas line.
1. Install a sediment trap between the incoming gas line and the
gas control valve (see Figure 39). The sediment trap should
extend down the center of the pipe. Refer to your local codes.
2. Prepare incoming gas line and check with local codes regard-
ing the use of teflon tape. Complete your gas line installation
by connecting incoming gas line with flexible gas line. Se-
cure tightly with a wrench, but Do NOT Overtighten.
WARNING: All gas piping and connections must
be tested for leaks after the installation is completed.
After ensuring that the gas valve is open, apply a soap
and water solution to all connections and joints. If
bubbles appear, leaks can be detected and corrected.
Do not use an open flame for leak testing and do not
operate any appliance if a leak is detected.
