Gas connections
(continued)
Failure to apply pipe sealing compound
as detailed in this manual can result
in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage.
Use two wrenches when tightening gas
piping at boiler (FIG. 7-3), using one
wrench to prevent the boiler gas line
connection from turning. Failure to
support the boiler gas connection pipe
to prevent it from turning could damage
gas line components.
USE BACKUP WRENCH TO
PREVENT PIPE FROM ROTATING

Natural gas:
Pipe sizing for natural gas
1. Refer to Table 7A for pipe length and diameter. Based on
rated boiler input (divide by 1,000 to obtain cubic feet per
hour).
a. Table 7A is only for natural gas with specifi c gravity
0.60 inches, with a pressure drop through the gas
piping of 0.3 inches w.c.
b. For additional gas pipe sizing information, refer to
ANSI Z223.1 (or B149.1 for Canadian installations).
Natural gas supply pressure requirements
1. Pressure required at the gas valve inlet pressure port:
• Maximum 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) with no fl ow
(lockup) or with boiler on.
• Minimum 4 inches w.c. (.99 kPa) with gas fl owing (verify
during boiler startup).
2. Install 100% lockup gas pressure regulator in supply line
if inlet pressure can exceed 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa) at any
time. Adjust lockup regulator for 14 inches w.c. (3.5 kPa)
maximum.
Propane Gas:
Pipe sizing for propane gas
1. Contact gas supplier to size pipes, tanks, and 100% lockup
gas pressure regulator.
Propane Supply Pressure Requirements
1. Adjust propane supply regulator provided by the gas
supplier for 14 inches w.c. (3.2 kPa) maximum pressure.
2. Pressure required at gas valve inlet pressure port:
• Maximum 14 inches w.c. (3.2 kPa) with no fl ow (lockup)
or with boiler on.
• Minimum 8 inches w.c. (1.9 kPa) with gas fl owing (verify
during boiler startup).
Maximum inlet gas pressure must not
exceed the value specifi ed. Minimum
value listed is for the purposes of input
adjustment.

NOTICE
WARNING
Ensure that the high gas pressure regulator
is at least 10 feet (3 m) upstream of the
appliance.
WARNING
FTXL boilers are typically shipped ready to
fi re on natural gas. Check boiler rating plate
to determine which fuel the boiler is set for.
If set to natural gas, it may be converted to
LP by installing a LP venturi or by making a
gas valve adjustment (see pages 14 and 15).
In order to operate on LP gas, a LP venturi
MUST BE installed or a gas valve adjustment
MUST BE made. Failure to comply could
result in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage.
