Only trim kit(s) supplied by the manufacturer shall be used in the installation of this appliance.
Gas Supply Line
The stove is supplied with a 3/8” Stainless Steel Flex connector exiting the bottom rear of the stove. We suggest
the installation of a shut-off valve in the supply line between the wall and the connection to the stove. Your
professional gas installer or local gas company will determine the specific requirements for the gas supply line
as the requirements may vary in different locations. In every case, the installation must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 or the Canadian
Installation Code, CAN/CGA B149.
Gas Connection
1. Verify that the gas type is correct for the unit by looking at the rating plate that is attached to the left side
of the stove. Note: The stove is shipped from the factory equipped to burn the fuel listed on the rating
plate. Fuel conversion in the field is not allowed.
2. The gas connection should now be made from the gas supply line to the flex connector exiting the back
of the stove. Use only a qualified gas installer to make the connection.
3. The gas supply piping should have a separate gas shut-off valve an
d a 1/8” NPT plugged tapping up
stream of the unit. Your professional gas installer or local gas company will determine the specific
requirements for the gas supply line as the requirements may vary in different locations.
4. The Stove and its inlet regulator and main burner valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
5. The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the gas shut-off valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi
(3.5kPa).
After the gas supply has been connected, use a commercial gas leak detector or apply a soapy water
solution to all the fittings to check for gas leaks. Never use a flame to test for leaks.
