WARNING
Never use a match or other flame to test for gas leaks. Use soap and water solution
to check for leaks to all connections and joints and if bubbles appear, leaks have
been detected and must be corrected. Never operate an appliance with leaking fuel
supply system. The supply system should be checked first with appliance turned off
followed by another check while appliance is operating.
GAS SUPPLY, HEATER EXPANSION, AND FLEXIBLE GAS
CONNECTION
The required flexible gas connector must be used, and are available from the
manufacturer
. Flexible gas connectors used from alternate sources must adhere to
the following Standards:
The connection of a radiant tube type infrared heater to the gas supply line, in
particular taking into account the heater’s thermal expansion and contraction, the
gas supply must be installed using:
In Canada a type 1 hose connector that is certified as being in compliance with the
Standard for Elastomeric Composite Hose and Hose Couplings for Conducting
Propane and Natural Gas,
CSA 8.1; and of a length of 36 ± 6 in (91 ± 15 cm) with an
ID of a least ½ in (12.7 mm).
In USA an approved Stainless Steel Flexible Gas Connector certified for use on an
infrared radiant tube heater per the Standard for Gas Appliances ANSI Z21.24 CSA
6.10. and comply with a 24 in (610 mm) to 36 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of
a least 1/2 in (12.7 mm).
Heaters installed with maximum thermal expansion of up to 2 in (50 mm) shall be
installed with a 24 in (610mm) to 35 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of a least
1/2 in (12.7 mm) and;
Heaters with maximum thermal expansion of up 3 in. (76.2 mm) shall be installed
with 36 in (91 cm) long connector with an ID of a least 1/2 in (12.7 mm) and;
heaters with maximum thermal expansion of more than 3 in (76.2 mm), but less than
6 in shall be installed with a 36 in (914 mm) long connector with an ID of at least 3/4
in (19.05 mm).
The distance between the distal mounting positions shall be measured with the
appliance “OFF” at ambient temperature and at normal operating temperature. The
difference between the two distances shall be used to select an appropriate flexible
connector.
Also the flue vent, and combustion air intake (if used) must be installed in such a
manner that the normal expansion of the heater will be accommodated
