INSTALLATION
Installation Items Needed (Not Provided)
Fig. 11 - Attaching Flexible Gas Line
to Equipment Shutoff Valve
Flexible Gas Line or
Black Pipe to Heater
Cabinet Regulator
To Regulator
• 8'' Adjustable Wrench
• 8'' Pipe Wrench
• Flexible Gas Line (24'' Min.) or 1/2'' Black Pipe
• 90 Deg. 3/8 NPT x 3/8'' Flare Fitting or 3/8'' Street Elbow
• Sealant (Resistant to Propane (LP) Gas)
• Shut Off Valve
1) A variety of options are possible for routing the Gas Connection Lines depending on where
your Gas Supply line is located. Install the 3/8'' Fitting to the Heater Cabinet Regulator
using Sealant and direct the attachment and either left or right toward the Gas Supply Line.
2) Install the Gas Line to the 90 Deg. tting and attach to the Shut Off Valve.
3) Check all connections for gas leaks.
NOTICE: Most building codes do not permit concealed gas connections. Check
your local building code prior to using a Flexible Gas Line for this installation.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to gas (PROPANE or NG). We recommend that
you install a sediment trap in a supply line as shown in Fig. 10. Locate sediment trap where it is
within reach for cleaning and not likely to freeze. Install in the piping system between fuel supply
and heater. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into
heater controls. If the sediment trap is not installed or is installed incorrectly, the heater may not
run properly.
CAUTION: Avoid damage to regulator. Hold gas regulator with wrench when connecting into gas
piping and/or ttings. NG Models: 6 in. and 14 in. W.C. Gas supplier provides external regulator for
natural gas.
