CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
NOTICE
A qualified service person must connect heater to gas supply.
Follow all local codes.
Installation Items Needed
Before installing heater, make sure you have the items listed below.
• piping (check local codes)
• sealant (resistant to LP gas)
• manual shutoff valve *
• test gauge connection * • sediment trap
• tee joint
• pipe wrench
* An A.G.A. design-certified manual shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable
alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the optional A.G.A. design-certified manual
shutoff valve from your dealer. See Accessories, page 33.
WARNING ICON G 001
CAUTION
Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper
tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use
pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas volume to
heater. If pipe is too small, undue loss of pressure will occur.
Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap.
Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream
from heater (see Figure 13, page 17).
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant
from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged heater valves.
WARNING ICON G 001
CAUTION
Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.
Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 13, page 17. Locate sedi-
ment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sediment trap where trapped
matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This
keeps them from going into heater controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is
installed wrong, heater may not run properly.

WARNING
Never connect heater to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is
commonly known as well-head gas.
