NOTES:
1. Follow all local and national LP gas codes for line sizing and
equipment requirements. 2. Verify that inlet gas pressure remains between
4 and 13 inches of water column before and during operation.

TO SIZE PIPING:
Measure linear distance from meter outlet to last boiler. Add total input
of all boilers and divide by 1000 to obtain cu ft / hr required. Add total
equivalent length of fittings used according to Table 6B. Align total
length (pipe and fittings) on left side column of Table 6C with highest
cubic feet of gas required.
Notes:
Consult and confirm with Applicable Fuel Gas Code before beginning
work. Verify gas inlet pressure is between 4 and 13 in W.C. before
starting boiler.

SECTION 4.
Gas Supply and Piping
4.1 Gas Supply and Piping
Gas piping should be supported by suitable
hangers or floor stands, not the appliance.
Review the following instructions before
proceeding with the installation.
1. Verify that the appliance is fitted for the proper type
of gas by checking the rating plate. Mascot II will
function properly without the use of high altitude
modification at elevations up to 10,000 feet (3050
m).
2. The maximum inlet gas pressure must not exceed
13" W.C. (3.2kPa). The minimum inlet gas
pressure is 4" W.C. (1.0kPa).
3. Refer to
Tables 6A, 6B, 6C and 6D
to size piping.
4. Run gas supply line in accordance with all
applicable codes.
5. Locate and install manual shutoff valves in
accordance with state and local requirements.
6. A sediment trap must be provided upstream of the
gas controls.
7. All threaded joints should be coated with
piping compound resistant to action of liquefied
petroleum gas.
8. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.45kPa).
9. The unit must be isolated from the gas supply
system by closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 PSIG (3.45kPa).
10. The appliance and its gas connection must be leak
tested before placing it in operation.
11. Purge all air from gas lines.
WARNING:
Open flame can cause gas to ignite and result in
property damage, severe injury, or loss of life.
NOTE
: The Mascot II appliance and all other gas
appliances sharing the gas supply line must be firing at
maximum capacity to properly measure the inlet supply
pressure. The pressure can be measured at the supply
pressure port on the gas valve. Low gas pressure could
be an indication of an undersized gas meter, undersized
gas supply lines and/or an obstructed gas supply line.
