Always use an external regulator for all LP heaters to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum of 13"
W.C. This is in addition to the regulator furnished with the heater.
Warning: Connection directly to an unregulated LP tank can cause an explosion.
The normal gas connection is 3/8" N.P.T. made at the right side facing the log set. If a left side connection is
desired, the connecting pipe may be routed under the rear of the burner base to terminate at the right hand
side for connection to the inlet of the valve.
NOTE: The connecting pipe must be internally tinned copper tubing for use with natural gas. Test for leaks
using a solution of soap and water after completing the connection. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.
NOTE: If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1.5 inch
(37.5mm) diameter or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the fire box in a proper
workmanlike manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas
supply line has been installed.
