CLASSIC C33-3 Freestanding Gas Stove
HIGH ELEVATION
This unit is approved in Canada for altitude 0
to 4500 ft. (CAN1 2.17-M90) with the orifi ce
supplied.
GAS PIPE
PRESSURE TESTING
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig. (3.45
kPa). Disconnect piping from valve at pressures
over 1/2 psig (14" w.c.).
The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator
built into the gas control, and should be checked
at the pressure test point.
Note: To properly check gas pressure, both
inlet and manifold pressures should
be checked using the valve pressure
ports on the valve.
1) Make sure the valve is in the "OFF" posi-
tion.
2) Loosen the "IN" and/or "OUT" pressure
tap(s), turning counterclockwise with a
1/8"
wide
fl
at
screwdriver.
3) Attach manometer to "IN" and/or "OUT"
pressure tap(s) using a 5/16" ID hose.
4) Light the pilot and turn the valve to "ON"
position.
5) The pressure check should be carried out
with the unit burning and the setting should
be within the limits specifi ed on the safety
label.
6) When fi nished reading manometer, turn
off the gas valve, disconnect the hose and
tighten the screw (clockwise) with a 1/8" fl at
screwdriver. Screw should be snug, but do
not over tighten.
GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT rigid pipe.
The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make in-
stallation easier, use a listed fl exible connector
and/or copper pipe if allowed by local codes.
For minimum and maximum supply pressure
see the System Data table below.
Note: During any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system that ex-
ceeds test pressures of 1/2 psig, this
appliance and its individual shut-off
valve must be disconnected from
the piping system. If test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig are used
then this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-off valve
during the testing.
Output capacity:
The effi ciency rating of the appliance is a
product thermal effi ciency rating determined
under continuous operating conditions and
was determined independently of any installed
system.
INSTALLATION
Installing into Existing
Woodstove Flue System
1) Clean existing chimney system.
2) Install stove pipe adapter
3) Install any reducers that may be needed to
fi t 6" fl ue pipe adapter.
4) Run 4" fl ex liner into existing chimney.
5) Slip liner through 6" fl ue pipe and hook up
to fl ue collar with screws.
Note: For ease of in-
stallation, use a
slip section when
installing
with a ver-
tical flue
pipe.
