Gas Supply Requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: The installation of this grill must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NPFA 54, Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling
Code, B149.2.
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 kits specified by the manufacturer must be used.
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:
Set pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (27.9 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
Natural Gas:
Set 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 for elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
See “Assistance or Service” section to order High Altitude
Conversion Kit.
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 psig (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 psig (3.5 kPa).
Gas Connection Requirements
Natural Gas
Built-in grill models are equipped for use with Natural gas. They
are design-certified by CSA International for LP (propane) gases
with appropriate conversion.
Built-in models are set for Natural gas use and have a pressure
regulator with ½" female pipe threads.
The supply line shall be equipped with an approved shutoff valve.
This valve should be located in the same area as the grill and
should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing.
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.
