GAS CONNECTION:
On most units the 3/4" NPT pipe nipple with union will be factory installed. If it is on your unit, omit Steps 1 to 4
below.
1. Locate the sheet metal cover plate on the bottom right of the unit. Remove the four screws which hold it in
place. A 3/8" NPT pipe with half of a union will now be exposed.
2. Packed separately in the unit is a pipe nipple with the mating half of the union attached. Locate this pipe.
3. Insert the nipple, with half of the union attached, through the hole at the right rear of the unit. On units
mounted on sectional flue risers, the nipple must also be inserted through the hole in the riser. Tighten the two
halves of the union together to make a gas tight seal.
4. Replace the bottom cover plate with the four screws.
5. Locate the pressure regulator and reducing bushing packed in the unit. Connect the gas supply line to the inlet
of the pressure regulator (see arrow on body of regulator). Connect the outlet of the pressure regulator to the
inlet of the unit as required by the particular installation.
6. If applicable, the vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator shall be installed to the outdoors in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-
