Installation
9. Provide electrical service per Paragraph 1, Electrical Supply Connecton in the
Inspection and Unpacking, Requirements Section, Page 6. Use ½ inch waterproof
conduit and waterproof connections. Observe local Codes and/or The National
Electrical Code in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. AN ELECTRICAL
GROUND IS REQUIRED. The electrical schematic is located on the inside of the
service panel. In Canada, provide electrical service in accordance with the Canadian
Electrical code, CSA C22.1 Part 1 and/or local codes.
10. The internal gas lines of the unit were cleaned and closed with a gas cock before
the unit was shipped from the factory. Ensure that external gas lines are free of lint,
dirt, metal chips, sealant, grease, oil or other contaminants, before you connect the
line to the kettle.
11. Connect the kettle gas cock to the gas service main using a 1” NPT gas connection.
12. Installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1-1988 (or latest edition). The unit should be
installed in an well-ventilated room with a provision for adequate air supply. The best
ventilation will use a vent hood and exhaust fan with no direct connection between
the vent duct and the unit flue.
Do NOT obstruct the flue or vent duct after installation. In Canada, the installation
must conform with the CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances
and Equipment and/or local codes.
13. Adequate space for proper service and operation is required. Do NOT block any
air intake spacings to the combustion chamber or obstruct the air flow by piling or
stacking anything near the kettle.
14. After the kettle has been connected to the gas supply, all gas line joints must be
checked for leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. A thick soap solution
or other suitable leak detector should be used.
15. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of ½ PSIG (3.48 kPa). The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any testing of the
gas system at pressures equal to or less than ½ PSIG (3.48 kPa).
16. Check the following to confirm that your kettle has been installed properly:
• Enough room between the kettle and nearby objects for cleaning and service.
• Minimum clearance of 24 inches from sides and 24 from back.
• Unit vented to an exhaust hood.
• Kettle level.
• Correct amount of water in the jacket.
• Safety valve outlet pointed down.
• Connected with a waterproof electric power cable in accordance with Paragraph
1 Electrical Supply Connecton (above) and local electrical codes.
• Gas lines cleaned before connection.
• Gas connected with 1 NPT or larger.
• Gas line joints checked for leaks.
• No obstruction to air supply or venting.
• Gas lines (1 NPT) connected to supply.
• Water supply connection (¾”) completed.
WARNING
DO NOT CONNECT ANY PIPING TO THE POP
SAFETY VALVE. IT MUST BE FREE TO VENT
STEAM AS NEEDED. THE ELBOW SHOULD
POINT DOWN TOWARD FLOOR. IMPROPER
INSTALLATION WILL VOID WARRANTY.
DANGER
ELECTRICALLY GROUND THE UNIT AT THE
TERMINAL PROVIDED. FAILURE TO
GROUND UNIT COULD CAUSE
ELECTROCUTION AND DEATH.
