The gas supply connection is made to the Tribute
DV’s gas control valve in the middle of the lower rear
of the stove, using a 3/8” male NPT fitting. The
supply line should be ½” diameter, or appropriately
sized to provide a sufficient gas supply to meet the
maximum demand of the unit without undue loss of
pressure. We recommend a flexible line to avoid
undue mechanical load on the valve and to ease
thread alignment, but refer to local codes.
CAUTION: CHECK GAS TYPE!

This 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. The Tribute DV must
be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or greater than ½ psig.
