Planning Ahead
lengths greater than 50 feet.
• Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyethylene
plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of .062"; or
standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe.
• Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more
than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic feet of
gas.
• Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use.
• Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material
which may corrode the piping, must be protected against
corrosion in an approved manner.
• Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.
Hose Requirements
• The grill is equipped with a model specific hose that was
attached during the manufacturing process. This specific
hose must be used for proper performance.
• If the hose becomes worn or damaged, contact the
Customer Service Representative in your area using the
contact information on our website.
Pressure Testing the Gas Supply
• Disconnect the gas grill when the gas supply is being
tested at high pressures. This appliance and its
individual shuto valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any pressure testing
of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa).
• Turn o the gas grill when the gas supply is being tested
at low pressures. This appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shuto valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2psig (3.5 kPa)
Connection Testing
All connections and joints should be thoroughly tested
for leaks in accordance with local codes. Follow the
leak test procedures in your Owner's Manual.
Mounting the Bulkhead
Securely mount the bulkhead bracket to the side of
the built-in gas supply enclosure using non-corrosive
hardware. MOUNTING HARDWARE NOT INCLUDED.
