Locate your firepit or fireplace adjacent to the gas supply line (LP or NG), preferably with the shortest gas line run possible. Maintain the following clearances to combustible materials on all Cal Flame fireplaces and fire pits. Measure from the outside of the unit. Sides (all around) 48 inches (1.2 m) Top 72 inches (1.8 m) Your Cal Flame firepit or fireplace is designed and intended for OUTDOOR USE ONLY in a well ventilated space and must not be used inside a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. Leak Testing Procedure Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the gas supply cylinder has been disconnected or not. In addition, whenever the gas cylinder is connected to the regulator or whenever any part of the gas system is disconnected or replaced, perform a leak test. As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your fireplace or firepit outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Never smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area while doing a leak test. Do not use a flame, such as a lighted match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy water. Prepare a leak testing solution of soapy water by mixing in a spray 1. bottle one part liquid soap to one part water. Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF position.2. Turn on the gas.3. On natural gas systems, turn the main feed valve to the burner. On LP systems, turn the cylinder valve knob counter clockwise one turn to open. Apply the leak-testing solution by spraying it on joints of the gas 4. delivery system. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates that a leak is present. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by replacing the faulty 5. part with a replacement part recommended by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it is damaged. The cylinder must be replaced. Turn the control knob back to the full OFF position.6. If you are unable to stop a leak: Turn the control knob back to the full OFF position.1. Shut off the gas supply to the fireplace or firepit and release pres2. sure in the hose and manifold by turning the control valve one quarter turn counter-clockwise. On LP systems, remove the cylinder from the fireplace or firepit.3. Call an authorized gas appliance service technician or an LP gas 4. dealer. Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected. Liquid Propane (LP) Requirements The 20 lb LP gas supply cylinder used with LP models must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders as required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the CAN/CSA B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods. Manifold Pressure: For plumbed-in LP installation, use a regulator. Supply Pressure: Maximum line pressure for plumbed-in propane is 14” W.C psi (3.5 kPa). Minimum line pressure for propane is 11” W.C. Pressure Regulator: The unit must be used with the gas pressure regulator. The regulator will control and maintain a uniform gas pressure in the manifold. The burner orifice has been sized for the gas pressure delivered by the regulator. Cylinder Specification: Any LP gas supply cylinder used with this firepit or fireplace must be approximately 12 inches in diameter and 18 inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5 gallons. Full cylinder weight should be approximately 38 lbs. (43.7 lbs. nominal water capacity.) Always use the cylinder dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet during transport and when the cylinder is not connected to the firepit or fireplace. Transporting Gas Cylinder: Only one cylinder should be transported at a time. Transport cylinder in an upright and secure manner with control valve turned off and the dust cap in place. Enclosures: Ensure cylinder valves are always readily accessible. A door on the enclosure to gain access to the cylinder valve is acceptable, provided it is non-locking and can be opened without the use of tools. If you build an enclosure for an LP gas cylinder, follow these recommended specifications and follow local codes. Enclosures for LP gas supply cylinders need to be ventilated by openings at the level of the cylinder valve and at floor level. This is accomplished by: 1) Having one side of the enclosure shall be completely open, Or, for an enclosure with four sides, a top and bottom: 2) Having at least two ventilation openings at cylinder valve level in the side wall, equally sized, spaced at 180 degrees (3.14 rad), and unobstructed. Make sure each opening has a total free area of not less then . square inch per pound (3.2 sq. cm/kg) of stored fuel capacity and not less then a total free area of 10 square inches (64.5 sq. cm). Ventilation openings need to be provided at floor level with a total free area of . inch per pound (3.2 sq. cm/k) of stored fuel capacity and not less than a total free area of 10 square inches if the ventilation openings at floor level are in a side wall, make sure there are at least two openings. The bottom of the openings sh...
