IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

PRE-INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION SAFETY GUIDELINES

A. Before installing this Outdoor Fire Pit, check “Minimum Clearance to Combustibles” on page 2. MINIMUM

CLEARANCES must be maintained when you install this Outdoor Fire Pit. THERE MUST BE AT LEAST 60”

(1.5 m) from the center of the burner to any combustible sidewall. The unit MUST NOT BE installed under any
type of ceiling or overhang.

B. The Outdoor Fire Pit is for outdoor use only. DO NOT install or use this appliance inside a building, garage, or

any other enclosed area including recreational vehicles and/or boats. This unit must be installed in such a

manner that proper air ventilation is maintained without obstruction at all times, and during all weather
conditions.

C. CHECK GAS TYPE (natural gas or propane): The gas supply you intend to use may not be the same as that

stated on your outdoor rating plate. THIS FIRE PIT IS CONSTRUCTED FOR USE WITH PROPANE GAS. If the
gas supply is different, or or you wish to change to natural gas, you MUST have the Fire Pit converted
(method described on page 8) to the gas type you intend to use, by a qualified, professional installer. If
you are unsure, contact your dealer for assistance.

D. DO NOT USE IF GAS PRESSURE IS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OR EXCEEDS THE

MAXIMUM.

E. FOR NATURAL GAS: The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment is 5 inches (127

mm) water column and maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 10 inches (254 mm) water column.
FOR PROPANE: The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment is 8 inches (203 mm)
water column and the maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 13 inches (330 mm) water colum n.

DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNIT IF MINIMUM PRESSURE IS NOT AVAILABLE OR IF MAXIMUM PRESSURE IS
EXCEEDED.

F. Gas piping system must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure at the maximum flow rate (BTU/hr). Undue

pressure loss will occur if the pipe is too small or the run is too long.

G. For installations at elevations above 2,000 ft., contact your local dealer or gas supplier before installing as input

ratings will be reduced approximately 4% for each 1,000 ft. above sea level. Refer to the National Fuel Gas
Code.

H. If the Outdoor Fire Pit is connected to Natural Gas, its main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply

piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5kPa).

Contact the dealer for the required orifice (Also see page 8 of instructions).

I. If the Outdoor Fire Pit is connected to Natural Gas, it must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by

closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test

pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5kPa).
J. INSTALLER NOTE: This unit should be installed so that it can be removed at a later date for service.
K. GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

Apply only joint compounds that are resistant to all gasses on all male pipe fittings. Make sure to tighten every

joint securely. Do not use pipe joint compound to connect flare fittings.

SAFETY NOTE: An external on/off valve in the gas line is required for safety when your Outdoor Fire Pit is

not in use. It also provides for convenient maintenance and repair.
