appliance is to be connected to Natural Gas
then the pressure regulator supplied must be
fitted to the gas inlet. A test point (for
checking the gas pressure) is supplied either
with the regulator or as a separate fitting in
the case of ULPG (propane) appliances.
Connection of the appliance to the gas
supply must be in accordance with the
requirements of AS5601. A ½” BSP
connector at the inlet is recommended and
