LP/PROPANE FIXED PIPING CONNECTION

Connection:  

Standard Residential 1/2” ID gas service line - 1/2” NPT male with 3/8” flare adapter.

Operating Pressure:

10.0” W.C.P. Nat. 

Supply Pressure:

11” to 14” W.C.P. Nat. If in excess of 14” W.C.P., a step-down regulator is required.

Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing gas supply lines.  Be sure to check on
type and size of run and how deep to bury the lines.  If the gas line is too small, the unit will not function properly.

To connect the supplied regulator assembly to the incoming flexible gas line, attach with a 3/8” female flare adaptor to the
3/8” male flare adaptor to the regulator assembly.  Ensure that the regulator arrow points in the direction of the gas flow
towards the unit and away from the supply.  Attach the regulator assembly to the unit with the 3/8” female flare adapter on the
regulator assembly to the 3/8” male flare adaptor on the unit.
DO NOT forget to place the installer supplied gas valve in an accessible location.

4.0” W.C.P. Nat. 

Supply Pressure:

6” to 14” W.C.P. Nat. If in excess of 14” W.C.P., a step-down regulator is required.

Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing gas supply lines.  Be sure to check on
type and size of run and how deep to bury the lines.  If the gas line is too small, the unit will not function properly.

To connect the supplied regulator assembly to the incoming flexible gas line, attach with a 1/2” (1.3 cm) female flare adaptor

gas flow towards the unit and away from the supply.  Attach the regulator assembly to the unit by pulling back the female
coupler sleeve towards the regulator.  Insert the coupler into the male coupler fitting on the grill until the sleeve snaps forward
securing the connection.  DO NOT forget to place the installer supplied gas valve in an accessible location.
