PREPARE FOR DUCTWORK
NOTE: Ductwork MUST be vented outside. DO
NOT vent into a wall, ceiling, crawlspace, attic or
any concealed space.
Determine the best route for ductwork; it can be
routed in a variety of ways depending on the
kitchen layout.

GAS CONNECTION

Make the gas connection
to the inlet of the
pressure regulator
on this appliance
with a 1/2" pipe
nipple with male
pipe thread. Use
an approved pipe
joint compound
resistant to the
action of LP gas at
pipe connections.
Install a manual shut-off
valve in the gas line in
an easily accessible
location, as close to the
pipe stub as possible,
making allowances for
the ventilation ducting.
Be sure you know how and where to shut off the
gas supply to the cooktop.
NOTE:
Instead of using solid piping to connect to
pressure regulator, an approved flexible metal
appliance connector may be used between the
pipe stub and shut off valve and the pressure
Transition
regulator, if local codes permit.
elbow
Appropriate flare union adapters are required at
each end of the flexible connector.
Turn on the gas; check for leaks using a liquid
leak detector at all joints in the system.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME
TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
