INSTALLATION

Figure 5 - Checking Gas Joints
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 NPT
threads. This will prevent excess sealant from
going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could
result in a clogged burner injector.

We recommend that you install a sediment
trap in supply line as shown in Figure 4, page
6. Locate sediment trap where it is within
reach for cleaning. Install in piping system
between fuel supply and heater. Locate sedi-
ment trap where trapped matter is not likely
to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and
contaminants. This keeps them from going
into log set controls. If sediment trap is not
installed or is installed wrong, log set may
not run properly.

Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG

1. Disconnect appliance with its appliance
main gas valve (control valve) and equip-
ment shutoff valve from gas supply piping
system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
will damage heater regulator.
2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where equip-
ment shutoff valve was connected.

3. Pressurize supply piping system by either
using compressed air or opening main gas
valve located on or near gas meter.
4. Check all joints of gas supply piping sys-
tem. Apply noncorrosive leak detection
uid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show
a leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Reconnect log set and equipment shutoff
valve to gas supply. Check reconnected
ttings for leaks.

1. Close equipment shutoff valve (see Fig-
ure 5).
2. Pressurize supply piping system by either
using compressed air or opening main gas
valve located on or near gas meter.
3. Check all joints from gas meter to equip-
ment shutoff valve (see Figure 5). Apply
mixture of liquid soap and water to gas
joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4. Correct all leaks at once.

1. Unscrew burner inlet tting from burner
manifold.
2. Place burner manifold in pan with
threaded opening facing open knockout
plug (see Figure 6, page 8). Make sure
the burner ports face downward.
3. Using thread sealant (resistant to the action
of propane/LP gas) on larger end of tting,
screw the burner inlet tting through hole
and into burner manifold. Tighten using
a wrench. If using propane/LP gas, see
Propane/LP Gas Conversion, page 10.
