INSTALLATION
Continued
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT
threads. This will prevent excess sealant from go-
ing into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result
in clogged fireplace valves. Never use sealant on
flare threads.
WARNING: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to liquid
petroleum (LP) gas.
We recommend that you install a sediment trap in
supply line as shown in Figure 15. Locate sediment
trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in
piping system between fuel supply and fireplace.
Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not
likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and
contaminants. This keeps them from going into fire-
place gas controls. If sediment trap is not installed or
is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.
