• Manifold pressure should be checked with
a manometer, natural gas requires 5.0”
W.C.P. and LP gas requires 10.0” W.C.P.
Incoming line pressure upstream from the
regulator must be 1” W.C.P. higher than
the manifold pressure in order to check
the regulator. The regulator used on this
range can withstand a maximum input
pressure of 1/2” PSI (14.0” W.C.P.). If the
line pressure is in excess of that amount, a
step down regulator will be required.
• The appliance must be disconnected from
the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system.
Flexible Connections:
If the unit is to be installed with flexible
couplings and/or quick-disconnect fittings,
the installer must use a heavy-duty AGA
design-certified flexible connector of at least
1/2” (1.3 cm) ID NPT (with suitable strain
reliefs) in compliance with ANSI Z21.41
and Z21.69. For the VGR 48” gas range the
installer must use a flexible connector of at
least 3/4” (.9 cm) ID NPT.
In Canada: CAN 1-6, 10-88 metal
connectors for gas appliances and CAN
1-6.9 M79 quick disconnect devices for use
with gas fuel.
In Massachusetts: This appliance must be
installed with a 36” (3-foot) long flexible
gas connector.
