Installation
Section 5: Installing the Gas Line
NOTE: After the gas line is connected, each appliance connection, valve and
valve train must be checked while under normal operating pressure with
either a liquid solution, or leak detection device, to locate any source of
leak. Tighten any areas where bubbling appears or leak is detected until
bubbling stops completely or leak is no longer detected. DO NOT use a
ame of any kind to test for leaks.
WARNING!
When pressure testing the replace, Gas line, and input system follow the
appropriate local codes or your area. DO NOT connect the replace to pressures
in excess of ½lb. per square inch. This will damage the gas control valve.
Figure 22. Gas line access.
Section 5-1: FUEL CONVERSION
• Verify that your replace is compatible with your available gas type. Either
natural gas or propane is specied at the time of order.
• If gas type is not compatible, contact your local European Home representative
to purchase a conversion kit.
• Conversion kits must be installed by a qualied service technician.
Section 5-2: GAS PRESSURE
• Optimum appliance performance requires proper input pressures.
• Gas line sizing requirements will be determined in ANSI Z223.1 National Fuel
Gas Code in the USA and CAN/CGA B149 in Canada.
Pressure requirements are:
Gas Pressure Natural Gas Propane
Minimum inlet pressure 5.5in. w.c. 11in. w.c.
Manifold pressure 3.5in. w.c. 10in. w.c.
• The manifold outlet pressure is set from the factory to the appropriate pressure
and should be veried.
• To check pressures, control valves have a provision to remove a ⁄” NPT plug
to be tted with a hose barb.
• European Home requires a service shut o valve be located in an accessible
location to isolate the gas supply.
•Only install gas shut-o valves approved for use by the state, province, or
other governing body in which the replace is being installed.
Section 5-3: GAS CONNECTION
• See Figure 22 below for location of gas line access.
• Flexible gas connectors must not exceed 3 feet in length unless allowable
within local regulations.
• Connect incoming gas line to the ½"or ⁄" gas inlet port.
• Purge all air out of gas line.
• Check appliance connection, valve and valve train under normal operating
pressure with a commercially available leak check solution.

Glass doors on gas fireplaces are extremely hot while the fireplace is on and
remain hot even after the fireplace has been turned off. Safety screens are
available and can reduce the risks of severe burns. Please keep children away
from the fireplace at all times.
CAUTION
Do not use ammonia based or abrasive cleaners on the glass, they will permanently
etch the surface. Use an approved gas fireplace glass cleaner such as Kel-Kem or
White off.
NOTICE
DO NOT USE A FLAME OF ANY KIND TO TEST FOR LEAKS!
