Gas Information

A. Fuel Conversion
• Make sure the appliance is compatible with available gas
types.
• Conversions must be made by a qualified service
technician using Hearth & Home Technologies specifi ed
and approved parts.
B. Gas Pressure
• Optimum appliance performance requires proper input
pressures.
• Gas line sizing requirements will be determined in ANSI
Z223.1 National Fuel Gas Code in the USA and CAN/
CGA B149 in Canada.
• Pressure requirements are:

Gas Pressure

Minimum inlet pressure
Maximum inlet pressure
Manifold pressure
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! High pressure
will damage valve. Low pressure could cause explosion.
• Verify inlet pressures. Verify minimum pressures when
other household gas appliances are operating.
• Install regulator upstream of valve if line pressure is
greater than 1/2 psig.
• Valve pressure taps are accessible by removing the
decorative front and the vanity panel.

Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance with
local codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI 223.1. Installation
should be done by a qualifi 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 fi tter).
Note: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts ap-
proved) 1/2 in. (13 mm) T-handle manual shut-off valve
and fl exible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 in. (13
mm) control valve inlet.
• If substituting for these components, please consult
local codes for compliance.
C. Gas Service Access
Note: This appliance does include a manual gas shutoff
valve that is located in the valve compartment. This manual
gas shutoff valve is accessible for service by removing the
decorative front and the vanity panel. Depending upon
local code, an additional manual gas shutoff, in a readily
accessible area may be required and located upstream from
the appliance.
The lower access cover panel is removable if fi nishing
material is not installed. See Figure 9.2.

If the fi nishing materials have been installed around the
appliance opening, proceed as follows:
1. Remove vanity panel.
2. Remove screws on left and right sides of component
heat shield and lift it out of the control cavity.
CAUTION! Risk of Overheating! Component heat shield
MUST be installed before operating appliance. Electrical
components will be damaged.
3. Unplug the 6V transformer from the junction box.
This will turn the power off to the appliance.
4. Turn the gas shutoff handle to the "OFF" position to
shut off the gas supply.
