To a House Gas Supply Line: Option 2
A gas supply hose and quick disconnect designed for natural gas and certified for outdoor use are included with natural gas
grills.
Natural gas plumbing must supply a pressure of 7 inches water column pressure to the inlet of the grill.
Piping and valves upstream of the quick disconnect are not supplied.
The gas pipe must be sized to supply the BTU/h specified on the rating plate, based on the length of the piping run.
See WARNING! General Information” of this manual for installation codes.
1. Hook-up to a gas supply line must be performed by a licensed gas fitter and leak tested before operating the grill.
2. Do not route the hose in close proximity to the drip pan or over top of the back panel.
3. Ensure the hose does not contact any high temperature surfaces.
Quick Disconnect
Do not install the quick disconnect in an upward direction.
A readily accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed upstream of the quick disconnect, and as close to it as
possible.
Connect the flared end of the hose to the fitting on the end of the manifold tube or flex tube (if applicable).

Leak test all joints prior to operating the gas grill. See “Leak Test”.
