Gas Information

A. Fuel Conversions
Before making gas connections ensure that appliance be-
ing installed is compatible with the available gas type.
Any natural or propane gas conversions necessary to
meet the appliance and locality needs must be made by
a quali ed technician using Hearth & Home Technologies
speci ed and approved parts.
B.

Gas Pressures

Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance
performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be
made following NFPA51.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Explosion Hazard.
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
above 1/2 psig.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
WARNING
Verify inlet pressures.
• High pressure may cause over re
condition.
• Low pressure may cause explosion.
• Verify minimum pressures when other
household gas appliances are operating.
Install regulator upstream of valve if line
pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.
Pressure requirements for appliance are shown in the
table below. Minimum pressures must be met when other
household gas appliances are operating.

Gas Connection

NOTE: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI
223.1. Installation should be done by a quali ed installer
approved and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation must be
performed by a licensed plumber or gas tter.)
NOTE: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts ap-
proved) 1/2 inch (13mm) T-handle manual shut-off valve and
exible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 inch (13mm)
control valve inlet.
• If substituting for these components, please consult
local codes for compliance.
Refer to Reference Section 16 for location of gas line
access in appliance.
NOTE: Gas line may be run from either side of the appliance
provided the hole in the outer wrap does NOT exceed 2-1/2
inches in diameter and does not penetrate the rebox.
WARNING
Gas Leak Risk
• Support control when attaching pipe to
prevent bending gas line.
NOTE: The gap between the supply piping and gas
access hole may be caulked with high temperature caulk
or stuffed with non-combustible un-faced insulation to
prevent cold air in ltration.
