When using copper or ex connectors use only
ttings approved for gas connections. The gas
control inlet is 3/8” NPT.
WARNING:
ONLY PERSONS LICENSED TO WORK WITH
GAS PIPING MAY MAKE THE NECESSARY GAS
CONNECTIONS TO THIS APPLIANCE.
NOTE: The gas line connection may be made using
1/2” rigid tubing or an approved ex connector. Since
some municipalities have additional local codes it
is always best to consult your local authorities and
the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI.Z223.1, NFPA54. In Canada CSA-B149 (1 or 2)
Installation Code. A listed manual shutoff valve
must be installed upstream of the appliance. Union
tee and plugged 1/8” NPT pressure tapping point
should be installed upstream of the appliance.

LOCATION. THE MAIN GAS VALVE IS FOR
TURNING ON OR SHUTTING OFF THE GAS
TO THE FIREPLACE. CHECK YOUR BUILDING
CODES FOR ANY SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
FOR LOCATING EQUIPMENT SHUTOFF VALVE
TO FIREPLACES. 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 BURNER SYSTEM VALVES.
CAUTION:
A MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE MUST BE
INSTALLED UPSTREAM OF THE APPLIANCE.

TAPPING POINT SHOULD BE INSTALLED
UPSTREAM OF THE APPLIANCE.
We recommend that you install a sediment trap/
drip leg in supply line as shown. Locate sediment
trap/ drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning.
Install in piping system between fuel supply and
burner system. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where
trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment
trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps
them from going into the burner system gas
controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed
or is installed wrong, burner system may not run
properly.
CAUTION:
USE PIPE JOINT SEALANT THAT IS RESISTANT
