Gas line hook up should be done by your

supplier or a qualified service person.
Note: Before you proceed, make sure your

gas supply is turned off.
Use only a 1/2" black iron pipe and appropri-

ate fittings.
1. Remove knockout indentation on refrac-

tory or firebrick wall located above refrac-

tory hearth floor. Knockout indentation

must be firmly tapped with any solid object

such as a 1/2" dowel until it is released.

Remove fragmented portions of refractory

(see Figure 21).

2. Remove gas line cover plate located on

either side of fireplace and pull out insula-

tion from gas line conduit sleeve. Save

insulation for reuse. Replace screws.

3. Run a 1/2" black iron gas line into fireplace

through the rear at gas line conduit sleeve (if

using a raised platform, add height). Provide

sufficient gas line into fireplace chamber for

fitting connection (see Figure 22).

Note: Secure incoming gas line to wood

framing to provide rigidity for threaded end.

4. Repack insulation around gas line and into

sleeve opening. Seal any gaps between

gas line and refractory knockout hole with

refractory cement or commercial furnace

cement, Install the gas appliance or cap-off

gas line if desired.

CAUTION: All gas piping

and connections must be tested

for leaks after the installation

is completed. After ensuring

that the gas valve is on, apply

soap and water solution to all

connections and joints. Bubbles

forming show a leak. Correct

all leaks at once. DO NOT USE

AN OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK

TESTING AND DO NOT OPER-

ATE ANY APPLIANCE IF A LEAK

IS DETECTED. LEAK TESTING

SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALI-

FIED SERvICE PERSON.
