GAS LINE REQUIREMENTS
✔ The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow
ANSI 223.1 and the requirements listed below. Ensure that a 1 1/4" allowance from
base of unit is made for hard pipe installation, see page 16, Minimum Framing Dimen-
sions.
✔ The fireplace 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. For
pressures under 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff
valve.
✔ The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its equip-
ment shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
✔ Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the
fireplace.
Fuel
This unit is manufactured for use with natural gas. To convert to LP gas, Part

Gas Line Connection
A manual shutoff valve is installed in the unit. To access the shutoff valve, open the
control panel access door and locate the red swing handle to the right of the
control panel beneath the firebox.
Gas Inlet Pressure
✓ All other gas appliances in the household must be turned “ON” to
check Inlet Pressure, and;
✓ Inlet pressure can only be checked with fireplace burner “ON”.
If the pressure is not sufficient, ensure: 1) the piping used is large enough, 2)
the supply regulator is adequately adjusted, and 3) that 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 above. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper
pressure.
