UTILITY INFORMATION
GAS: Each unit has a 1-1/4" front gas manifold that couples to the adjacent sectional unit(s), and can be ordered with a 1" rear
gas connection with a male NPT connector. Minimum supply pressure is 7" W.C. for natural gas, 11" W.C. for propane. An external pressure regulator and shut off valve must be provided. If using a flexible-hose gas connection, the I.D. of the hose must not
be smaller than the connector on the unit and must comply with ANSI Z21.69. Provide an adequate means of restraint to prevent
undue strain on the gas connection.
FLUE EXHAUST: Installation under a vented hood is recommended.
