Gas Connections
Natural Gas Requirements
Connect a suitable natural gas flex connector to the appliance regulator located on the rear right corner of
the
appliance. It is recommended to use a flex connector with a minimum of a ½” diameter or larger.
Sealing all non-flared fittings with thread sealant or Teflon tape.
Ensure the flex connector is protected from sharp edges, heat, aggressive surfaces, and kinking.
Check the appliance controls to ensure all control valves are in the full OFF position.
Turn on the main gas supply and check all connections for leaks using soapy water as described in the
leak testing procedure section.
The regulator used must be set for 4” water column and is for use with Natural gas only. Note: Most low
pressure regulators have a directional arrow indicating the direction in which the gas must travel. Ensure
the arrow is pointing in the direction of the appliance.
An installer supplied gas shutoff valve must be installed in an accessible place.
Liquid Propane (LP) Gas and Tank Requirements
If your BLAZE Grill is for a Liquid Propane application, a L.P regulator set for 11” WC must be used and is
for use with LP gas only.
The regulator and hose supplied must be used with a 20 lb. LP cylinder.
A collar to protect the cylinder threads on the customer supplied tank.
An arrangement for gas vapor withdrawal.
A safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor space of the cylinder.
A method of mounting.
The gas supply must be turned off at the LP Gas supply cylinder and the LP Gas supply cylinder must be
disconnected from the regulator when this outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use.
Always sit the cylinder in an upright position so that the cylinder valve is at the top. This will ensure proper
vapor withdrawal.
The cylinder should not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. It should be stored
outdoors in a protected, cool, and dry location out of reach of children.
Never store any spare or extra gas cylinder(s) around or in the outdoor kitchen containing the BLAZE
appliance or any other open flame, heat-producing appliance(s) or heat source.
