Delivery and setup
- Ships by freight carrier; the shipping cost depends on your location. See our shipping policy for details.
- Call (201) 467-8222 for the current lead time before you schedule installation.
- Choose natural gas or LP when you order. If your kitchen is above 2,000 feet, tell us the elevation so Royal can set the unit up for it.
- A qualified gas installer must connect it with a manual shut-off valve following local codes; no external regulator is needed. On casters, Royal calls for a quick-disconnect flexible connector and a restraining device.
- Boil out the new tank before the first fill.
- Inspect the shipment before signing and note any visible damage on the freight bill.
