INSTALLATION
CONNECTION TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: A qualified service person must
connect log set to gas supply. Follow all local
codes.
Installation Items Needed
Before installing log set, make sure you have
the items listed below.
• piping (check local codes)
• sealant (resistant to natural gas)
• equipment shutoff valve
• test gauge connection
• adjustable (crescent) wrench or pliers
• sediment trap
• tee joint
• pipe wrench
CAUTION: Only use a new, black iron or steel
pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may
be used in certain areas. Check your local codes.
Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow
proper gas volume to log set. If pipe is too small,
loss of pressure will occur.
Installation must include an equipment shutoff
valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap.
Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge
hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from log
set (see Figure 1).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve
in an accessible location. The equipment
shutoff valve is for turning on or shutting off
the gas to the appliance.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads.
This will prevent excess sealant from going
into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result
in a clogged burner injector.
Install sediment trap in supply line. Locate sedi-
ment trap where it is
within reach for cleaning. Locate sediment
trap where trapped matter is not likely to
freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and
contaminants. This keeps them from going
into log set controls. If sediment trap is not
installed or is installed incorrectly, log set may
not run properly.
