(217 mm) of the top of the enclosure, equally sized, spaced at a minimum of 90 degrees (1.57 rad), and unobstructed. The opening(s) shall have a total free area of not less than 1 in2/lb (1.42 cm2/kg) of stored fuel capacity. 2. Ventilation opening(s) shall be provided at floor level at rear of the enclosure and shall have a total free area of not less than 1/2 in2/lb (7.1 cm2/kg) of stored fuel capacity. The bottom of the openings shall be 1 in. (25.4 mm) or less from the floor level and the upper edge no more than 5 in. (127 mm) above the floor level. The openings shall be equally sized, spaced at a minimum of 90 degrees (1.57 rad) and unobstructed. 3. Every opening shall have minimum dimensions so as to permit the entrance of a 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) diameter rod. 4.

Never connect an unregulated gas line to the appliance. An installer supplied gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible location. All installer supplied parts must conform to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the National Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. In Canada: Installation must be in accordance with the current CSA-B149.1, Natural Gas Installation Code or CSAB149.2, Propane Installation Code and/or local codes.

In the absence of codes, the installation must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. The gas grill and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa). The gas grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). Built-in installations must be plumbed using a fixed/hard line if the unit is going to be operated at a distance exceeding 3 feet (0.91 meters) from the fuel supply per ANSI Z21.24 CSA. GAS CONVERSION To convert a grill from natural to LP/Propane or LP/Propane to natural, you MUST use conversion kit sold seperately.
