Gas Connection Requirements - KitchenAid KBPU182VSS Installation Instructions And Use And Care Manual

Gas Conversion:
No attempt shall be made to convert the Power™ burner from
the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a
different gas type without consulting the serving gas supplier. The
conversion kits supplied with the Power™ burner must be used.
See "Gas Conversions" section for instructions.
Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this Power™ burner
must be used. The inlet (supply) pressure to the regulator should
be as follows for proper operation:
LP Gas:
Set pressure: 11" (28 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (28 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
Natural Gas:
Set pressure: 4" (10.2 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm)
WCP maximum.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
(supply) pressure.
Burner Requirements for High Altitude
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level. Orifice
conversion is required. See "Assistance or Service" section to
order.
Gas Supply Line Pressure Testing
Testing above ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge):
The Power™ burner and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Testing below ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge) or
lower:
The Power™ burner must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Local LP Gas Supply Conversion
Conversion must be made by a qualified gas technician. The
qualified gas technician shall provide the gas supply to the
selected Power™ burner location in accordance with the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition,
and local codes. For conversion to local LP, the convertible
regulator in the conversion kit supplied with the Power™ burner
must be used.
IMPORTANT: The gas installation must conform with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition. The qualified
LP gas technician shall provide the LP gas supply to the selected
Power™ burner location in accordance with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and local codes.
Follow instructions for converting to local LP gas in the "Gas
Conversions" section.
