INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO
FIREPLACE LOCATION
WARNING: This appliance
requires a 1/2" NPT (National
Pipe Thread) inlet connection to
the pressure regulator.
WARNING: A qualified ser-
vice person must connect fire-
place to gas supply. Follow all
local codes.
CAUTION: Never connect pro-
pane/LP fireplace directly to the
propane/LP supply. This fireplace
requires an external regulator (not
supplied). Install the external regu-
lator 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.

the items listed below.
