Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa) 1. Disconnect appliance with its appliance main gas valve (control valve) and equipment shutoff valve from gas supply piping system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig will damage fireplace gas regulator. 2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where equipment shutoff valve was connected. 3. Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or opening propane/LP supply tank valve. 4. Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. 5. Correct all leaks at once. 6. Reconnect fireplace and equipment shutoff valve to gas supply. Check reconnected fittings for leaks. Pressure Testing Fireplace Gas Connections 1. Open equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 27). 2. Open propane/LP supply tank valve. 3. Make sure control knob of fireplace is in the OFF position. 4. Check all joints from equipment shutoff valve to thermostat gas valve (see Figure 28, page 16). Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. 5. Correct all leaks at once. 6. Light fireplace (see Operating Fireplace, pages 21 and 22). Check all other internal joints for leaks. 7. Turn off fireplace (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 22).

Follow instructions below to install fireplace in this manner. Note:The instructions below show installation using the cabinet mantel and hearth base accessories (see Accessories, page 34). The hearth base accessory shown is optional for this installation. You can install fireplace and cabinet mantel directly on the floor. The corner mantel accessory cannot be installed with the hearth bases. You must install corner mantel directly on the floor. 1. Assemble cabinet mantel, hearth base, and trim accessories. Assembly instructions are included with each accessory. 2. When installing blower, install a properly grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical outlet at fireplace location if an outlet is not there. If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed (see Figure 29). Equipment Shutoff Valve 3. If not already completed, install gas piping to fireplace location. This installation includes an approved flexible gas line (if allowed by local codes) after the equipment shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the last item installed on the gas piping. See Installing Gas Piping to Fireplace Location, page 14. 4. Place hearth base accessory against wall at installation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top to run flexible gas line to fireplace (see Figure 29). Make sure to locate access hole so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed. Note:You can secure base to floor using wood screws. Countersink screw heads and putty over.
