The installation must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the cur-
rent National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54. This appliance complies with ANSI
Z21.50/CSA 2.22.

CAUTION: Do not connect
appliance before pressure test-
ing gas piping. Damage to gas
valve may result and an unsafe
condition may be caused.
The appliance and it’s individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 1/2
psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
For the purpose of input adjustment two
pressure taps (for IN and OUT pressures)
are provided on the gas control valve for test
gauge connections to the appliance.

Flush installations are recommended where
living space is limited or at a premium and
since the space required to enclose the ap-
pliance would be located beyond an outside
wall, this would also reduce the cutting of
joists, roof rafters and such. Check local
codes for any restrictions.
Projected installations can extend any
distance into the room. A projection may
be ideal for a new addition on an existing,
finished wall.
Corner installations make use of space
that may not normally be used and provides
a wider and more efficient range for radiant
heat transference.
Internal wall installations provide a discreet
option for room separation and can also be
ideal as an addition to an existing wall.

3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters will make installation easier.
