Gas Line Installation
MASSACHUSETTS INSTALLATIONS - WARNING:
THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A LICENSED PLUMBER OR GAS FITTER WHEN INSTALLED WITHIN THE
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS.
OTHER MASSACHUSETTS CODE REQUIREMENTS:
• Flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• Shutoff valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• Only direct vent sealed combustion products are approved for bedrooms or bathrooms.
• Fireplace dampers must be removed or welded in the open position prior to the installation of a fireplace insert or gas log.
• A carbon monoxide (CO) detector is required in the same room as the appliance.
! The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow current ANSI
Z223.1 or NFPA 54.
! The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA). For pressures
under 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.
NOTE: The gas inlet may pass close
to the blower - we suggest
you install the blower first or
provide adequate clearance.
• This heater is designed for natural gas
but can be converted to propane. Check
the sticker on top of the gas control valve
to verify the correct fuel is used (see
page 4).
• Leak test all gas line joints and the gas
control valve prior to and after starting the
heater.
• A manual shutoff valve is required for
installation (it must be located within 3’ of
the heater).
T-Handle gas cocks are required in
Massachusetts in compliance with code
248CMR.

Gas Inlet Pressure
• With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below
• If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load
for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
• The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane
tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas
supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.
Standard Input Pressure
Natural Gas 7” W.C. (1.74 Kpa)
Propane 13” W.C. (3.23 Kpa)
