Gas Information

A. Gas Pressure Requirements
Pressure requirements for Heat & Glo gas fi replaces are shown in Table 5.1 below.
Two taps are provided on the outlet side of the gas control for a test gauge connection to measure the inlet and outlet pressures. These inlet and outlet pressure taps can be ac­cessed through the internal valve access panels as shown in Section 10: Maintaining and Servicing the Fireplace.
The fi replace and its individual shut-off valve must be dis- connected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 60 mbar.
If the fi replace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing an individual shut-off valve, it must be of the handle-less type.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures above 60 mbar.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 60 mbar.
Table 5.1
B. Gas Connection
Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes by a qualifi ed installer approved and/or licensed as required by the locality.
Note: Before the fi rst fi ring of the fi replace, the gas supply line should be purged of any trapped air.
Note: Consult local building regulations to properly size the gas supply line leading to the hook-up at the unit.
Note: Gas line MUST be run from right side of fi replace.
WARNING
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS Fire Risk
Explosion Risk Asphyxiation Risk
• Check all fi ttings and connections.
• Do not use open fl ame.
• After the gas line installation is complete, all connections must be tightened and checked for leaks with a commercially available, non-corrosive leak check solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following testing.
Fittings and connections may have loosened during shipping and handling.
