GAS PIPING To avoid damage or possible personal injury, do not connect gas piping to this unit until a supply line pressure/leak test has been completed. Connecting the unit before completing the pressure/leak test may damage the unit gas valve and result in a fire hazard. Do not rely on a shut-off valve to isolate the unit while conducting gas pressure/leak tests. These valves may not be completely shut off, exposing the gas valve to excessive pressure and damage. PIPE SIZING NOTICE: If more
