Natural Gas Safety Instructions
1. Your natural gas heater is designed for use with natural
gas (NG) only. The gas pressure regulator supplied
with this appliance must be installed and used on your
heater. The unit and regulator are set to operate with an
outlet pressure of 4" W.C.
2. Install a shutoff valve at the gas supply source outdoors
at a point after the gas pipe exits the outside wall and
before the quick-disconnect hose. Alternatively, it
can be installed at the point before the gas line piping
enters the ground
(Figure 9)
.
3. Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape resistant to
the action of natural gas must be used on all male pipe
thread connections.
4. Disconnect your heater from the fuel source when
the gas supply is being tested at high pressures.
This heater and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply pipe system during
any pressure testing of that system at pressure in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
5. Turn off your heater when the gas supply is being tested at low pressures. The heater must be isolated from
the gas supply pipe system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply pipe system at pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
