valve that is supplied with the Fire Pit / Fire Table. Ensure that the connector does not
pass through a wall, floor, ceiling or partition, and is protected from damage. Do not use
a hose to connect the Fire Pit / Fire Table except to connect the cylinder regulator to the
piping system. It must be connected with rigid pipe, copper tube or an approved flexible
metal connector.
The installation must comply with National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1 in the United
States. The gas supply pipe must be sufficiently sized to supply the BTU/h specified with
the Fire Pit / Fire Table , based on the length of the piping run.

or open flames are in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open flames

components are replaced or serviced. Do not smoke while performing this test, and
remove all sources of ignition. Turn burner valve to the off position. Turn gas supply
valve on.
