IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell the
smell the odorant in propane. Smoking can decrease your ability
to smell. Being around an odor for a time can affect your sensitivity
or ability to detect that odor. Sometimes other odors in the area
mask the gas odor. People may not smell the gas odor or their
minds are on something else. Thinking about smelling a gas odor
can make it easier to smell.
The odorant in Propane Gas is colorless, and it can fade under
some circumstances. For example, if there is an underground leak,
-
ants in Propane Gas also are subject to oxidation. This fading can
occur if there is rust inside the storage tank or in iron gas pipes.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or into walls,
masonry and other materials and fabrics in a room. That will take
some of the odorant out of the gas, reducing its odor intensity.
Propane Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor intensity
could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air, there may
gas odor. If you detect any odor, treat it as a serious leak. Imme-
diately go into action as instructed earlier.

sions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and colorless.
You may not know all the following safety precautions which
can protect both you and your family from an accident. Read
them carefully now, then review them point by point with the
members of your household. Someday when there may not
be a minute to lose, everyone’s safety will depend on knowing
exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information,
you feel you still need more information, please contact your
gas supplier.

If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because of the odorant put in the Propane Gas.

connected; control valve will sustain damage!
NOTE: The millivolt gas controls are equipped with a captured screw

1/8" test point up stream of the control.
The appliance and it’s individual shut off valve must be disconnected

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual manual shut off valve during any pressure

Checking Manifold Pressures
Both Propane and Natural Gas valves have a built-in pressure
regulator in the gas valve. Natural Gas models will have a manifold

To Use the Vent Graph (Figure 29)
1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent pipe.
Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph, locate the
point it intersects with the slanted graph line.
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the
bottom of the graph.
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the unit in accordance
with same.
EXAMPLE A:
3 inches.
EXAMPLE B:
6 inches.
SPECIAL NOTE: For each 45 degree elbow installed in the
horizontal run, the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced
installed on the vertical part of the vent system. Reduce 3' for every
90° elbow.
Example:
is 20' and if two 45 degree elbows are required in the horizontal
vent it must be reduced to 17'.
The maximum number of 45 degree elbows permitted per side wall
vertical or horizontal run.
