READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION INSTALL GAS SUPPLY WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL. General Specifications for Piping Note - Contact your local municipality for building codes regulating outdoor gas barbecue installations. In absence of Local Codes, you must conform to the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1. This barbecue is designed to operate at 4.5 inches of water column pressure (.1625 psi). Use only the regulator supplied with the cooking module. A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors, and be accessible, not in the built-in structure. An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible location near the supply line. Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to the action of natural gas when gas connections are made. The gas connections must be firmly attached to rigid, permanent construction. The information provided in this manual is general for typical installations. We cannot cover all possible installation ideas. We recommend prior to installation that you contact your municipality for local building codes and your local fire department for installation verification. You can also call Weber-Stephen Products Co. at 1-888-33SUMMIT (1-888-337-8664) and we will try and answer any questions you may have. Gas line piping If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet, use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be used for lengths greater than 50 feet. Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyethylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of.062 inch; or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe. Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic feet of gas. Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use. Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may corrode the piping, must be protected against corrosion in an approved manner. Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover. Test connections All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for leaks in accordance with local codes and all listed procedures in the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1. DANGER Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the area while you check for gas leaks. This will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. If you have any questions, contact the Weber-Stephen Customer Service Center at 1-888-33-SUMMIT (1-888-337-8664). 2
BUILT-IN CONSTRUCTION GENERAL INFORMATION WARNING A Weber-Stephen Products Co. insulated sleeve must be used for any built-in installation. LOCATING YOUR BARBECUE When determining a suitable location for your barbecue installation, give attention to concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to traffic paths, and keeping any gas supply lines as short as possible. Never locate the Weber Gas Barbecue in a garage, breezeway, shed, under an unprotected overhang, or other enclosed area. Locate the barbecue and structure so there is enough room to safely evacuate the area in case of a fire. CLEARANCE FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES OR STRUCTURES WARNING: Clearance from the outside walls of the sides and back of the insulated sleeve must be a minimum of 6 inches from a non-combustible surface. Measure from the outside wall of the insulated surface to the non-combustible surface. Figure 1. Refer to Install Gas Supply on page 2 before starting installation. NON- COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES OR STRUCTURES WARNING: Clearance from the outside walls of the sides and back of the insulated sleeve must be a minimum of 24 inches from a combustible surface. Measure from the outside wall of the insulated surface to the combustible surface. Figure 2. Refer to Install Gas Supply on page 2 before starting installation. 24 inches COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE 24 inches Insulated sleeve Figure 2 24 inches Countertop WARNING: All countertop finished surfaces must be constructed of a noncombustible material. 6 inches 6 inches 6 inches Insulated sleeve Countertop Figure 1 WARNING: All countertop finished surfaces must be constructed of a noncombustible material. 3

The support members of the built-in structure must not impede passage of the gas lines. Area should be kept clear of sharp, jagged, or extremely abrasive surfaces to avoid possible damage to gas supply lines. Exercise caution when pulling gas lines through built-in structure. Note: Leave an access in the structure for gas supply and regulator service. View of front side Figure 8 View of back side Cross ventilation must be incorporated in the supporting structure. We recommend a minimum of 100 square inches of venting per side. Vents should be on two sides of the structure. Figures 5 and 6 are references only. Location of the vents should be from the center, outward. Locate the vents at both the bottom of the structure and at the top of the structure. The bottom vents should be as close to ground level as possible. Make sure the vent area is not blocked by interior supports of the structure. We recommend vents with screens. Access doors to the structure are not considered vents. Clean the vents periodically. DANGER: Failure to follow recommended minimum venting instructions can cause gas to collect in the structure in the event of a gas leak. This may result in a fire or an explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. 5
