Gas Information
A. Gas Pressure Requirements
Pressure requirements for Outdoor Lifestyle gas fireplaces
are shown in Table 5.1 below.
Two taps are provided on the outlet side of the gas control
for a test gauge connection to measure the inlet and outlet
pressures. These inlet and outlet pressure taps can be ac-
cessed through the internal valve access panels as shown
in Section 10: Maintaining and Servicing the Fireplace.
The fireplace and its individual shut-off valve must be dis-
connected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess
of 60 mbar.
If the fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing an individual shut-off valve, it must be of
the handle-less type.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
above 60 mbar.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 60 mbar.

Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualified installer approved
and/or licensed as required by the locality.
Note: Before the first firing of the fireplace, the gas supply
line should be purged of any trapped air.
Note: Consult local building regulations to properly size the
gas supply line leading to the hook-up at the unit.
Note: Gas line MUST be run from right side of fireplace.
WARNING
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Asphyxiation Risk
• Check all fittings and connections.
• Do not use open flame.
• After the gas line installation is complete,
all connections must be tightened and
checked for leaks with a commercially
available, non-corrosive leak check
solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check
solution following testing.
Fittings and connections may have loosened
during shipping and handling.
