8 INSTALLATION
Gas Connection
The appliance is preset for natural gas use. If LPG is to be
used, see “Converting your appliance for use with LPG”
section.
The gas connection point is a ½” BSP external thread
located at the rear of the appliance as shown.
A 1700mm long flexible hose is supplied in the pack for
installation purposes.
GAS INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Connecting flexible hose
• Place a spanner on the flats provided on the gas inlet
to brace the inlet against the action of wrenching
when connecting the hose to the appliance gas inlet.
Failure to do so may damage the appliance.
• An approved thread sealing tape or compound is
required for the connection between the hose and
the appliance gas inlet.
• Ensure there is no kink in the gas hose when the
appliance is in the installed position.
Connecting the regulator
A regulator is supplied which must be fitted to the
appliance.
NOTE: The inlet of the regulator should be fitted to
the consumer piping first. The arrow on the regulator
indicates the direction of gas flow. Then connect the hose
to the outlet of the regulator using the swivel connection
on the hose and fibre washer supplied.
Ensure the regulator is in a position that is accessible
with the appliance installed and which will allow the
appliance to be withdrawn without disconnecting the
hose.
Check all joints and ensure that connections are sound.
