•
Always use a back-up wrench when making the connection
to the gas valve to keep it from turning. The orientation of
the gas valve on the manifold must be maintained as
shipped from the factory. Maximum torque for the gas valve
connection is 375 in-lbs; excessive over-tightening may
damage the gas valve.
•
Install a manual shutoff valve between the gas meter and
unit within six feet of the unit. If a union is installed, the
union must be downstream of the manual shutoff valve,
between the shutoff valve and the furnace.
•
Tighten all joints securely.
•
Connect the furnace to the building piping by one of the
following methods:
–
Rigid metallic pipe and fittings.
–
Semi-rigid metallic tubing and metallic fittings.
Aluminum alloy tubing must not be used in exterior
locations. In order to seal the grommet cabinet
penetration, rigid pipe must be used to reach the
outside of the cabinet. A semi-rigid connector to the
gas piping may be used from there.
•
Use listed gas appliance connectors in accordance with
their instructions. Connectors must be fully in the same
room as the furnace.
•
Protect connectors and semirigid tubing against physical
and thermal damage when installed. Ensure aluminum-
alloy tubing and connectors are coated to protect against
external corrosion when in contact with masonry, plaster, or
insulation, or subjected to repeated wetting by liquids such
as water (except rain water), detergents, or sewage.
