Make Gas Connection

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to propane, have a qualified person make
sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 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.
Typical flexible connection
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with propane gas
to the smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters
(see B and G in the following illustration).
2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and
the other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both
adapters, being certain not to move or turn the gas pressure
regulator.
