Installation / Assembly
Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction and
electrical circuits. In addition, some communities have codes requiring
residential barriers such as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property to prevent unsupervised access to the property by children under
the age of 5. Your dealer can provide information on which permits
may be required and how to obtain them prior to the delivery of your
equipment.
Installation and service must be performed by a quali-
ed installer, service agency or your natural gas or liquid
propane gas provider.
Set-Up
You are responsible for ensuring that a natural gas line (if required)
is installed and safe for use. We recommend that a licensed contrac-
tor install your replace. Installation must conform to local codes, or
in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code,
B149.2), as applicable.

Placement and Location
Cal Flame replaces are designed for
outdoor use only.
• Never locate this appliance in a building, garage, or any other enclosed room or under a sealed overhead structure, or in any type
of enclosed area such as a garage, shed, or breezeway. Keep clear
of trees and shrubs.
• Do not place replace under or near windows or vents that can be
opened into your home.
• Maintain sufcient distance as to not overheat any overhead combustible material such as a patio cover.
Installation / Assembly
• The area surrounding your replace should be kept clean and free
from ammable liquids and other combustible materials such as
mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning uids, and
gasoline.
• Do not block the vents located near the base of your replace as
gas may build up in case of leak and cause serious damage.
• Do not install or operate your replace in such a manner that the
cross ventilation openings are blocked. Fresh air must be able to
pass though installed vents to safeguard against residual gas ac-
cumulation. Failure to allow proper ventilation may cause re or
explosion.
• Do not locate appliance where it can get excessively wet. Do not
use this appliance if any part has been underwater. Immediately
call a qualied service technician to inspect the unit and to replace
any part of the control system and any gas control which has been
underwater.
• Place your replace on a at and stable surface in an outdoor location such as a patio deck.
• Locate your replace adjacent to the gas supply line (liquid propane or NG), preferably with the shortest gas line run possible.
• Maintain the following clearances to combustible materials on all
Cal Flame replaces.

Leak Testing Procedure
Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the gas supply cylinder
has been disconnected or not. In addition, whenever the gas cylinder
is connected to the regulator or whenever any part of the gas system
is disconnected or replaced, perform a leak test.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your replace
outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Never smoke or permit sources of
ignition in the area while doing a leak test. Do not use a ame, such as
a lighted match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy water.
1. Prepare a leak testing solution of soapy water by mixing in a spray
bottle one part liquid soap to one part water.
2. Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF position.
3. Turn on the gas.
On natural gas systems, turn the main feed valve to the burner.
On propane systems, turn the cylinder valve knob counter clock-
wise one turn to open.
4. Apply the leak-testing solution by spraying it on joints of the gas
delivery system. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates
that a leak is present.

Installation / Assembly
5. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by replacing the faulty
part with a replacement part recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it is damaged. The
cylinder must be replaced.
6. Turn the control knob back to the full OFF position.
If you are unable to stop a leak:
1. Turn the control knob back to the full OFF position.
2. Shut off the gas supply to the replace and release pressure in the
hose and manifold by turning the control valve one quarter turn
counter-clockwise.
3. On propane systems, remove the cylinder from the replace.
4. Call an authorized gas appliance service technician or an liquid
propane gas dealer.
Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected.

Liquid Propane
Your Cal Flame replace is not provided
with a propane cylinder. If you choose to
operate your replace with propane, you
must supply your own cylinder.
Requirements
The 20 lb propane gas supply cylinder
used with propane models must be constructed and marked in accordance with
the specications for propane gas cylinders as required by the U.S.
Installation / Assembly
Department of Transportation (DOT) or the CAN/CSA B339, Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods.
Manifold Pressure: For plumbed-in liquid propane installation, use
a regulator.
Supply Pressure: Maximum line pressure for plumbed-in propane is
14” W.C psi (3.5 kPa). Minimum line pressure for propane is 11” W.C.
Pressure Regulator: The unit must be used with the supplied gas
pressure regulator and hose assembly. The regulator will control and
maintain a uniform gas pressure in the manifold. The burner orice has
been sized for the gas pressure delivered by the regulator. Replace-
ment pressure regulator and hose assemblies must be those specied
in this manual.
Cylinder Specication: Any propane gas supply cylinder used with
this replace must be approximately 12 inches in diameter and 18
inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5
gallons. Full cylinder weight should be approximately 38 lbs. (43.7
lbs. nominal water capacity.) Always use the cylinder dust cap on the
cylinder valve outlet during transport and when the cylinder is not
connected to the replace. The 20 lb propane gas cylinder used must
include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
Filler Valve: If you do not have an updated ller valve on your exist-
ing propane tank, you will need to purchase one at your local hardware
store, as you will not be allowed to rell the tank at any lling station.
Transporting Gas Cylinder: Only one cylinder should be transported
at a time. Transport cylinder in an upright and secure manner with
control valve turned off and the dust cap in place.
