Never use galvanized or plastic pipe. Refer

to Table 6 for proper sizing of the gas sup-

ply line, if black iron pipe is being used. Gas

lines must be routed, constructed and made

of materials that are in strict accordance with

local codes and regulations. We recommend

that a qualified individual such as a plumber or

gas fitter be hired to correctly size and route

the gas supply line to the appliance. Installing

a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the

appliance involves numerous considerations of

materials, protection, sizing, locations, controls,

pressure, sediment, and more. Certainly no one

unfamiliar and unqualified should attempt sizing

or installing gas piping.

Notes:

• All appliances are factory-equipped with a

flexible gas line connector and 1/2 inch shutoff

valve (see Figure 48 on Page 26).

• See Massachusetts Requirements on Page 4

for additional requirements for installations in

the state of Massachusetts in the USA.

• The gas supply line should Not be connected

to the appliance until Step 5 (Page 26).

• A pipe joint compound rated for gas should be

used on the threaded joints. Ensure propane

resistant compounds are used in propane

applications. Be very careful that the pipe

compound does not get inside the pipe.

• It is recommended to install a sediment trap

in the supply line as close as possible to the

appliance (see Figure 48). Appliances using

Propane should have a sediment trap at the

base of the tank.

• Check with local building official for local

code requirements (i.e. are below grade pen-

etrations of the gas line allowed?, etc.).

IMPORTANT: If propane is used, be aware that

if tank size is too small (i.e. under 100-lbs, if

this is the only gas appliance in the dwelling.

Ref. NPFA 58), there may be loss of pressure,

resulting in insufficient fuel delivery (which

can result in sooting, severe delayed ignition

or other malfunctions). Any damage resulting

from an improper installation, such as this, is

not covered under the limited warranty.

Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE

Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line along the inside

of the right side framing as shown in Figure

14. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and

made of materials that are in strict accordance

with local codes and regulations. All appliances

are factory-equipped with a flexible gas line

connector and 1/2 inch shutoff valve (see Step

5 on Page 26).

Proper Sizing of Gas Line

Properly size and route the gas supply line

from the supply regulator to the area where

the appliance is to be installed per require-

ments outlined in the National Fuel Gas Code,

NFPA 54 - latest edition (USA) or B149 - latest

edition (Canada).
