DESCRIPTION: The Paver Kit face plate bracket (control panel) is designed to install in conjunction with a typical Patio
Block re pit kit (purchased separately). It installs underneath the re pit pan or disc in place of one patio block. The
control panel itself provides a convenient location to house the gas valve and Piezo ignition (if applicable) then is easily
removed for servicing.
PRECAUTION: Ensure the PAVER-CP-TMSI control panel is within 40-inches of the 2-probe Piezo ignitor. This will allow
enough “play” in the wires to make your connections. See Fig. 9.
TOOLS NEEDED: (1) Drill/driver, Gas Rated Teon Tape or Compound, 5/16” Hex head driver, (1) 3/16” Concrete Drill
Bit, (2) Adjustable Wrenches, Assorted Open-end Wrenches
