All gas piping must be installed in compliance with
local codes and utility regulations. In the absence
of local codes the gas line installation must comply
with the latest edition of the Federal Manufactured
Home Constructions & Safety Standard (H.U.D. Title
24, Part 3280.707[a][2]), National Fuel Gas Code
(
ANSI Z223.1 /NFPA 54) or (CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2)
Installation Codes.
• Some local regulations require the installation
of a manual main shut-off valve and ground joint
union external to the furnace as shown in Figure 12
(page 17). The shut-off valve should be readily
accessible for service and/or emergency use.
Consult the local utility or gas supplier for additional
requirements regarding placement of the manual
main gas shut-off.
• Gas piping must never run in or through air ducts,
chimneys, gas vents, or elevator shafts.
• Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping
must be resistant to the actions of LP propane gas.
• The main gas valve and main power disconnect to
the furnace must be properly labeled by the installer
in case emergency shutdown is required.
• Flexible gas connectors are not recommended for
this type of furnace but may be used if allowed by
local jurisdiction. Only new flexible connectors
may be used. Do not use a connector which has
previously serviced another gas appliance.
• A drip leg should be installed in the vertical pipe
run to the unit if not entering the furnace through
the floor.
Table 8 (page 30) lists gas flow capacities for standard
pipe sizes as a function of length in typical applications
based on nominal pressure drop in the line.
The furnace is installed with a bottom gas entry. When
connecting the gas supply, provide clearance between the
gas supply line and the entry hole in the furnace casing
to avoid unwanted noise and/or damage to the furnace.
Typical gas hookups are shown in Figure 12.
