9BUILT-IN SIDE BURNER MANUAL
If your Side Burner is factory built for L.P., the regulator required
is set for 10” water column and is for use with L.P. gas only. If
unit is NOT supplied with regulator please make sure that all
requirements are met for the type of regulator required.
It must be provided with a shut-o valve terminating in gas
tank valve outlet. It must include a collar to protect the cylinder
valve. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal.
A typical LP gas installation is show on the right. Make sure
that the factory supplied regulator is used and installed with the
arrow mark on the regulator pointing towards the Side Burner.
Do not use any replacement regulator other than that specied
by the manufacturer. Use only pipe sealants that are approved
for use with natural and LP gases. An installer-supplied
gas shuto valve must be installed in an accessible location.
(Reference: leak test procedure).
An enclosure or island for an LP gas cylinder must be vented
on the level of the cylinder valve and at oor level. The
eectiveness of the opening(s) for purposes of ventilation shall
be determined with the LP gas supply cylinder in place. This
shall be accomplished by one of the following:
a. One side of the enclosure shall be fully open; or
b. For an enclosure having four sides, a top and a bottom, at
least two ventilation openings at cylinder valve level shall be
provided in the sidewall, equally sized, spaced at 180 degrees
(3.14 r), and unobstructed. Each opening shall have a total free
area of not less than 1/2 square inch per pound (7.1 cm2/kg) of
stored fuel capacity and not less than a total free area of 10
square inches (64.5 cm2).
Ventilation opening(s) shall be provided at oor level and
shall have a total free area of not less than ½” square inch per
pound (7.1 cm2/kg) of stored fuel capacity and not less than
a total free area of 10 square inches (64.5 cm2). If ventilation
openings at oor level are in a sidewall, there shall be at least
two openings. The bottom of the openings shall be at oor level
and the upper edge no more than 5 inches (127 mm) above
the oor. The openings shall be equally sized, spaced at 180
degrees (3.14 r) and unobstructed.
Although LP Gas Cylinders may be used, it is not
recommended due to the large amount of Gas
Consumption and may freeze up the gas cylinder as
well as a safety risk.
The LP-gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked
in accordance with the specications for LP-gas cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National
Standards of Canada CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres
and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods, and
Commission, as applicable; and
1. Provided with a listed overlling prevention device.
2. Provided with a cylinder connection device compatible
with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.

VENTING YOUR ENCLOSURE:
L.P. GAS SAFETY REQUIREMENT
1. This gas appliance and its individual shuto valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at the test
pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
2. This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shuto
valve during any pressure testing of the as supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5
kPa). If the gas Side Burner is factory built for natural
gas, the regulator supplied is set for 4” water column.
The regulator is convertible Later to 10” water column
for system LP application. Do not use with a 20-lb LP
cylinder.
NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION
The installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with either The National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1, Natural
Gas Installation Code or CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane
Installation Code.
Do not operate the gas Side Burner indoors or in any enclosed
area. If the gas Side Burner is not in use, the gas must be
turned o at the supply cylinder. If the Side Burner is to be
stored indoors, disconnect the gas supply cylinder and leave the
cylinder outdoors.
