Thor Kitchen Gas Rangetop
8
The installation of range tops designed for recreational vehicle installation must conform with
state or other codes or, in the absence of such codes, with the
standard for recreational vehicles. ANSI A119.2.2–1982 in the U.S.A. or
CAN/CGA Z240.4.2 in Canada.
The installation of appliances designed for recreational park trailers must conform with state
or other codes or, in the absence of such codes, with the standard for recreational park
trailers, ANSI A119.5.
Note: Check all piping connections in the unit for leaks. Never use an open flame to check for
gas leaks. Use a soap solution, 75% water, 25% dish washing soap. It is possible for connections
made at the factory to leak, due to vibration encountered in transportation. Make certain you
have checked them all and repair any connections that leak.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig.
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.
GAS LINE SHUT-OFF VALVE
• To reduce the possibility of gas leaks, apply Teflon tape or a thread compound approved
for use with LP or Natural gases to all threaded connections.
• Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside
the range in the gas piping external to the appliance for the purpose of turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.
• Install male 1/2’’(30 or 36 inch rangetop) or 3/4” (48 inch range top) flare union adapter to
1/2” or 3/4’’ NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of regulator. Use a wrench on the regulator
fitting to avoid damage.
• Install male 1/2” or 3/4” flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-
off valve, taking care to secure the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
• Check for leaks using a leak detector or soapy water, 75% water, 25% dish washing soap.
