WARNING
Explosion Hazard. Failure to use proper
thread compounds on all gas connectors
may result in leaks of flammable gas.
Gas supply to boiler and system must be
absolutely shut off prior to installing or
servicing boiler gas piping.
1. Use methods and materials in accordance
with local plumbing codes and requirements of gas
supplier. In absence of such requirements, follow
National Fuel Gas Code
, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
and/or
Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code
,
CAN/CSA B149.1.
2. Use thread (joint) compounds (pipe dope)
resistant to action of liquefied petroleum gas.
3. Apex boilers have factory supplied
miscellaneous parts cartons, which include gas-
piping components to connect boiler gas valve(s) to
gas supply system. Install these components prior
to connecting boiler to gas supply system piping as
follows:

Models APX425 and APX525
a. Locate and remove the ¾ in. NPT x 6 in. long
black nipple and ¾ in. NPT external gas shutoff
valve (required).
b. Model APX525 boiler has ¾ in. NPT x 12 in.
long black nipple and left side panel grommet
factory installed (disregard the supplied
¾ in. NPT x 6 in. long black nipple in the
miscellaneous parts carton).
c. Mount the ¾ in. NPT external gas shutoff valve
onto the nipple threaded end outside of the jacket
left side panel.

4. All above ground gas piping
upstream
from manual shut-off valve must be electrically
continuous and bonded to a grounding electrode.
Do not use gas piping as grounding electrode.
