Gas Line Install
! The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI Z223.1
and the requirements listed below.
! The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA). For pressures under
1/2 psig (3.45 kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.
• Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the heater.
Fuel
• This heater is designed for natural
gas but can be converted to propane.
Check the sticker on the top of the
gas control valve to make sure the
correct fuel is used.
Gas Line Connection
• The gas inlet accepts a 3/8" F.P.T.
Fitting
• The location of the gas inlet is
shown to the right
• A manual shutoff valve is required
for installation (it must be located
within 3' (910 mm) of the heater)
12-3/4"
(324 mm)
4-3/4"
(121 mm)
1-1/2"
(38 mm)
Gas Inlet Pressure
• With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below
? If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load for
the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
? The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank)
should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas supplier if the
regulator is at an improper pressure.
Standard Input Pressure
Natural Gas 7" W.C. (1.74 kPA)
Propane 11" W.C. (2.73 kPA)
