Size the gas pipe appropriately to supply the necessary volume of gas required
for the T-K3-OS/SP (190,000 BTUH for both Natural Gas and Liquid Propane)
using ANSI233.1/NAPA 54 in the USA or CAN/CSA B149.1 in Canada or local
codes. Otherwise, flow capabilities and output temperatures will be limited.
1.
Install a manual gas shut-off valve between the T-K3-OS/SP and the gas supply line.
2.
When the gas connections are completed, it is necessary to perform a gas leak test either
by applying soapy water to all gas fittings and observing for bubbles or by using a gas leak
detection device.
3.
Always purge the gas line of any debris before connecting to the heater gas inlet.
