FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
NOTE : The gas line connection may be made using 1/2"
rigid tubing or an approved ex connector. Since some
municipalities have additional local codes it is always best
to consult your local authorities and the current edition of
the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1, NFPA54. In
Canada CSA-B149 (1 or 2) Installation Code.
A listed manual shutoff valve must be installed upstream of
the appliance. Union tee and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure
tapping point should be installed upstream of the appli-
ance. Figure 51
IMPORTANT: Install main gas valve (equipment shutoff
valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for
turning on or shutting off the gas to the replace.
Check your building codes for any special requirements for
locating equipment shutoff valve to replaces.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will
prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess seal-
ant in pipe could result in clogged burner system valves.
CAUTION
A manual shutoff valve must be installed
upstream of the appliance. Union tee
and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping
point should be installed upstream of the
appliance. Figure 51
CAUTION
Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to

GAS SUPPLY LINE INSTALLATION
Only persons licensed to work with gas
piping may make the necessary gas
connections to this appliance.
WARNING
We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg
in supply line as shown in Figure 51. Locate sediment
trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install
in piping system between fuel supply and burner system.
Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not
likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contami-
nants. This keeps them from going into the burner system
gas controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is
installed wrong, burner system may not run properly.
