ALL
the appliance BTUs being supplied.
The dryer is provided with a 3/4-inch N.P.T. inlet pipe connection located at the right side of the base of the
dryer. The minimum pipe size (supply line) to the dryer is 3/4-inch N.P.T. For ease in servicing, the gas
supply line of each dryer
must have
its own shutoff valve.
The size of the main gas supply line (header) will vary depending on the distance this line travels from the
gas meter or, in the case of L.P. gas, the supply tank, other gas operated appliances on the same line, etc.
Specific information regarding supply line size
should be
determined by the gas supplier.
NOTE:
Undersized gas supply piping can create a low or inconsistent pressure, which will result in
erratic operation of the burner ignition system.
