Thor Kitchen Gas Rangetop

Installation Instructions
Be sure the range top is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. It is the
responsibility of the technician to make certain that your range top is properly installed.
Situations cause by improper installation are not covered under the warranty. Any expenses
incurred due to such situations will not be paid by the manufacturer of the range top.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer’s
instructions, or according to local building codes and gas regulations in your area.
GAS CONNECTIONS (All Units)
NOTICE TO MASSACHUSETTS APPLIANCE DEALERS:
Be sure this document is included in all gas range top appliances sold to consumers in the
State of Massachusetts.
NOTICE:
Massachusetts law requires the following:
• Appliances must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.
• Appliances must be connected with a three (3) foot (36” maximum length) flexible gas
connector and
• A “T” handle type manual gas valve in the gas supply line to the appliance.
Have the dealer where you purchase your new range top install it or have them recommend a
qualified installer. Installation must conform with local codes. In the absence of local codes, the
installation must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition in the
U.S.A. or the CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2
Installation Codes in Canada.
The range top should be connected to the supply line with 1/2-inch black iron pipe or a
certified flexible type stove connector. To prevent gas leaks, put an approved sealing
compound which is resistant to liquefied petroleum gases on all threaded connections.
Important: Do not apply pressure directly to the range top manifold pipe when tightening
supply connections. The manifold pipe should be held securely at the pressure regulator to
prevent twisting. Hold the pressure regulator with a wrench during the tightening of the
connection, or the manifold pipe may be twisted and split and cause a dangerous leak.
The installation of range tops designed for manufactured (mobile) home installation must
conform with the Manufactured Construction and Safety, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280, [formerly the Federal standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24,
HUD (Part 280)] in the U.S.A. or C.S.A. Standard CAN/CGA Z240.4.2 in
Canada or, when such standards are not applicable, with local codes.
