CONNECTING TO GAS
SUPPLY
WARNING: This appliance is
equipped with a 3/8" NPT
(National Pipe Thread) inlet
connection to the pressure
regulator.
WARNING: A qualified service
person must connect heater to gas
supply. Follow all local codes.
Installation Items Needed
Before installing heater, make sure you
have the items listed below:
 piping (check local codes)
 sealant (resistant to LP gas)
 equipment shutoff valve
 tests gauge connection
 sediment trap
 tee joint
 pipe wrench
A CSA/AGA design-certified equip-
ment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is
an acceptable alternative to test gauge
connection. Purchase the optional CSA/
AGA design-certified equipment
shutoff valve from your dealer. See
Accessories, page 23.
The gas inlet connection for the stove
heater is located on the lower rear right
-hand side when viewed from the front
of the unit. Make sure gas log heater is
secured to the stove cavity assembly.
WARNING: Never connect
heater to private (non-utility) gas
wells. This gas is commonly
known as wellhead gas.
Installation must include an equipment
shutoff valve, union and plugged 1/8"
NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach
for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must
be upstream from heater (See Figure 8).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment
shutoff valve in an accessible location.
The equipment shutoff valve is for
turning on or shutting off the gas to the
appliance.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male
threads. This will prevent excess
sealant from going into pipe. Excess
sealant in pipe could result in clogged
heater valves.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to liquid
petroleum (LP) gas.
