DESCRIPTION: The Paver Kit face plate bracket (control panel) is designed to install in conjunction with a typical Patio
Block re pit kit (purchased separately). It installs underneath the re pit pan or disc in place of one patio block. The
control panel itself provides a convenient location to house the gas valve and Piezo ignition (if applicable) then is easily
removed for servicing.
DIMENSIONS: The Paver Kit bracket and extension will t an opening with a maximum of 10½” wide x 3½” tall. Without
the Bracket Extension plate the maximum width is 8.00” wide. The holes in the Extension Bracket are spaced every ½”.

TOOLS NEEDED: (1) Drill/driver, Gas Rated Teon Tape or Compound, 5/16” Hex head driver, (1) 3/16” Concrete Drill
Bit, (2) Adjustable Wrenches, Assorted Open-end Wrenches
PRECAUTION: Ensure the PAVER-CP-TPSI control panel is within 40-inches of the 2-probe Piezo ignitor. This will allow
enough “play” in the wires to make your connections. See Fig. 9.

STEP 1: Determine the best location to install the paver
kit control panel per your installation.
STEP 2: Remove one or two blocks from the re pit
enclosure then measure the width between the opening.
The bracket will t and opening. Depending on the block
width the control panel can be adjusted to t from 8” to
10 ½”. NOTE: When measuring it is recommended but
not required to recess the control panel to protect the
valve components from weather.
Note: Use the linel (supplied with kit) to support the
paver patio blocks above control panel opening. The
lintel simply lays on top of the paver as shown in Fig. 4.
STEP 3: After you have determined the location and
measured the width to install the Paver Kit control panel
mark the inside of the control panel as shown in Fig. 4.
STEP: 4 Drill the two holes with a 3/16” concrete drill
bit and secure the paver kit control panel with concrete
screws.
NOTE: This section provides a general overview of the
Paver Kit Control Panel. Follow the directions from your
paver block re pit kit to build the actual re pit.
Depending on your re pit pan (at disc or pan) ensure
the Paver Kit control panel is installed underneath the
pan or disc.
Be sure the paver patio block kit ts the opening of the
re pit pan or disc before beginning your installation.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the TPSI valve and bracket assembly from the
carton.
STEP 1: Prepare the re pit gas valve by installing a ⅜”
close nipple and ½” OD Flare x ⅜” brass tting that comes
with the PAVER-CP-TPSI kit into the gas inlet. Use gas
rated Teon tape or compound on the male threads.
Ensure the ttings are tight to prevent any gas leaks.
CAUTION: Do not use any Teon tape or compound on
the ared ends of the ttings.
STEP 2: The TPSI gas valve is supplies partally
assembled. You will need to connect the Piezo wires,
pilot tubing, inlet gas supply and ex line to the re pit.
See Fig. 7.

STEP 3: Install the main burner orice on burner pan of the re pit. and secure the ex connector to the ½” ared tting.
See re pit manual.
STEP 4: Temporarly set re pit into the enclosure to make the following connections:
A. Install ex connector to main burner orice at bottom of re pit then bring other end through the paver bracket.
B. Install ex connector to primary gas supply and feed the other end through the paver bracket.
C. Feed the Piezo wires and pilot tubing through paver bracket.
See Figs. 7-10 for details.
STEP 5: Secure the ex connectors to the gas valve and plug the Piezo wires into the back of the Piezo module.
Note: The Piezo wires are not polarity senstive therefore they can plug into either connection of the Piezo module.
Check for gas leaks before nal assembly.
