PLANNING YOUR GAS LINE
Gas Line Inlet
The gas inlet into
the Sierra firebox
is located in the
back left corner.
Plan your gas line
accordingly.
The most convenient way to run your gas line
is up through the bottom. The bottom is open
and free of obstructions.
Back or side penetrations can be made by slid-
ing the firebox back out as discussed on Page
5 and with a 1” hole saw cut in your desired
location from inside of the unit to avoid struc-
tural supports.

10
LOCATING YOUR TANK
1. Your Sierra gas log is equipped for use
with either Natural Gas or Propane Gas.
Please confirm the type of gas you are
installing.
2. If your unit is intended to work on Pro-
pane Gas please adhere to all local and
national codes.
3. Locate your tank in a location that is ac-
cessible for service and easily shut off if
needed.
4. A pressure regulator should be used in
line before the unit is connected to the
pilot safety valve. ( This is not supplied.)
5. The inlet pressure to the pilot safety
valve is 11” W.C.
6. The size of your incoming line will limit
the distance you can place the tank from
