supply. Consult local gas companies or suppliers, or your local contractor for minimum supply line
requirements.

Never use matches, candles, or any other ignition source to check for leaks. If gas
odors are detected, shut off the gas supply to the appliance at the main shut-off
valve and immediately contact the local gas company or an authorized service
agency for service.

unit.
