GAS SUPPLY PIPING

Table 3 - Gas Pipe Size
1. Determine the required Cu. Ft. / Hr. by dividing the rated heater input by 1000. For SI / Metric measurements: Convert unit Btu. / Hr. to
kilowatts. Multiply the units input (kW) by 0.0965 to determine Cubic Meters / Hour. 2. FOR NATURAL GAS: Select the pipe size directly
from the table. 3. FOR PROPANE GAS: Multiply the Cu. Ft. / Hr. (Cubic Meters per Hour) value by 0.633; then use the table. 4. Refer to
the metric conversion factors listed in General Safety section for more SI unit measurements/conversions.
To avoid equipment damage or possible personal injury, do not connect gas piping
to this unit until a supply line pressure/leak test has been completed. Connecting the unit before
completing the pressure/leak test may damage the unit gas valve and result in a fi re hazard.
Do not rely on a shut off valve to isolate the unit while conducting gas pressure/leak
tests. These valves may not be completely shut off, exposing the unit gas valve to excessive pressure
and damage.
NOTICE: If more than one gas unit heater is to be
served by the same piping arrangement, the total
cubic feet per hour input and length of pipe must be
considered.
NOTICE: If the gas unit heater is to be fi red with LP
gas, see Table 3 or consult the local LP gas dealer
for pipe size information.
NOTICE: HEATER INSTALLATION FOR USE WITH
PROPANE (BOTTLED) GAS MUST BE MADE BY A
QUALIFIED L.P. GAS DEALER OR INSTALLER. HE
WILL ENSURE THAT PROPER JOINT COMPOUNDS
ARE USED FOR MAKING PIPE CONNECTIONS;
THAT AIR IS PURGED FROM LINES; THAT A
THOROUGH TEST IS MADE FOR LEAKS BEFORE
OPERATING HEATER; AND THAT IT IS PROPERLY
CONNECTED TO PROPANE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM.
Before any connection is made to an existing line
supplying other gas appliances, contact the local gas
company to make certain that the existing line is of
adequate size to handle the combined load.
PIPE SIZING
To provide adequate gas pressure at the gas unit
heater, size the gas piping as follows:
1. Find the cu ft/hr by using the following formula:
Input
Cu ft/hr =
Btu per Cu ft
2. Refer to Table 3. Match “Pipe Run in Feet” with
appropriate “Gas Input - Cu Ft/Hr” fi gure. This fi gure
can then be matched to the pipe size at the end of
the column.
Example: It is determined that a 67 foot (20.4m) run of
gas pipe is required to connect a 200 MBTU gas unit
heater to a 1,000 Btu/cu. ft (0.29 kW) natural gas supply.
200,000 Btu/hr
= 200 Cu ft/hr
1,000 Btu/cu ft
Using Table 3, a 1 inch pipe is needed.
NOTICE: See General Safety Information section for
English/SI (metric) unit conversion factors.
