Extension Cord
Use extension cord if needed. The cord must have
a three-prong, grounding plug and a three-hole
receptacle. Make sure cord is in good shape. It must
be heavy enough to carry the current needed. An un
-
dersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage. This
will result in loss of power and overheating. Use a
No. 16 AWG cord for lengths less than 50 feet.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: This appliance
requires a 45° male flare fitting
5/8"-18 UNF (Unified National
Fine Thread) inlet connection and
the flexible gas line provided.
WARNING: A qualified service
person must connect fireplace
to gas supply. Follow all local
codes.
CAUTION: Never connect
propane/LP fireplace directly
to the propane/LP supply. This
fireplace requires an external
regulator (not supplied). Install
the external regulator between
the fireplace and propane/LP
supply.
WARNING: Never connect
natural gas fireplace to private
(non-utility) gas wells. This
gas is commonly known as
wellhead gas.
For propane/LP units, installer must supply an
external regulator. The external regulator will
reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce
incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14
inches of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas
pressure, fireplace regulator damage could occur.
Install external regulator with the vent pointing
down as shown in Figure 23. Pointing the vent
down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.
CAUTION: Use only new,
black iron or steel pipe. Inter
-
nally-tinned copper tubing may
be used in certain areas. Check
your local codes. Use pipe of
1/2" or greater diameter to allow
proper gas volume to fireplace.
If pipe is too small, undue loss
of volume will occur.
