Gas Installation; Fuel Conversion - Jøtul GF 373 BF Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

Gas Installation

Gas installation must only be performed by qualified
personnel. It is important to adhere to national and
local regulations that apply. In the UK these include
BS5440 Parts 1 and 2, and BS5871 in Ireland.
• The LPG gas container must be stored/installed ac-
cording to national regulations. The gas container
must have a pressure regulator that reduces the
pressure to the required level. See technical data on
page 4 for gas type and pressures before connecting
to the appliance.
• The appliance must not be exposed to pressure
above 55 mbar (5,5 kPa) during pressure testing.
• Gas tubes must be made of steel (DIN 2448/1629,
DIN 2458/1626, DIN 2440, DIN 2441) or copper (DIN
2110).
• For practical reasons, the vent system should be in-
stalled before the appliance is connected to the gas
supply.
• The stove is supplied with a 3/8" to 8mm compres-
sion union. The gas valve has a 3/8" NPT threaded
connection.
• All tube connections must be approved and the gas
pipeline must have an approved shutoff valve. Only
use approved sealing agent (tape) at all the pipe
connections. When the pipe sections have been
assembled and connected to the appliance, open
the gas supply and light the appliance (see lighting
instructions). Perform a tightness test on all the pipe
connections.
