Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved "outdoor"
gas supply line.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 11" (28 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes
and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149.1 - latest
edition.
IMPORTANT: Grill must be connected to a regulated gas supply.
Refer to the model/serial rating plate for information on the type
of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with
the type of gas available, check with your local gas supplier.
Gas Conversion:
No attempt shall be made to convert the grill from the gas
specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different
gas type without consulting the serving gas supplier. The
conversion kit supplied with grill must be used. See "Gas
Conversions" section for instructions.
Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this grill must be used.
The inlet (supply) pressure to the regulator should be as follows
for proper operation:
LP Gas:
Operating pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (27.9 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
Natural Gas:
Operating pressure: 4" (10.2 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
maximum.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
(supply) pressure.
Burner Requirements for High Altitude
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level. Orifice
conversion is required. See "Assistance or Service" section to
order.
Gas Supply Line Pressure Testing
Testing above ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge):
The grill and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures greater than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Testing below ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge) or
lower:
The grill 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Gas Connection Requirements

20 lb LP Gas Fuel Tank
This grill is equipped for use with a 20 lb LP gas fuel tank (fuel
tank not supplied). A gas pressure regulator/hose assembly is
supplied.
It is also design-certified by CSA International for local LP gas
supply or for Natural gas with appropriate conversion.
A. Gas pressure regulator/hose assembly
The 20 lb LP gas fuel tank must be mounted and secured.
