GAS PIPING
To avoid 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 fire 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 gas valve to excessive pressure and
damage.
NOTICE: If more than one unit heater is to be served
by the same piping arrangement, the total cu. ft./hr.
input and length of pipe must be considered.
NOTICE: If the gas unit heater is to be fired with LP
gas, consult your 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 THE HEATER; AND THAT IT IS
PROPERLY CONNECTED TO THE PROPANE GAS
SUPPLY SYSTEM.
Before any connection is made to the existing line
supplying other gas appliances, contact the local gas
company to make sure that the existing line is of
adequate size to handle the combined load.
1. Determine the required Cu. Ft./Hr. by dividing the input by 1000. For SI/Metric measurements: Convert BTU/Hr. to kilowatts. Multiply the
units inputs (kW) by 0.0965 to determine Cu. Meters./Hr. 2. FOR NATURAL GAS: Select pipe size directly from the table. 3. FOR PROPANE
GAS: Multiply the Cu. Ft./Hr. value by 0.633; then, use the table. 4. Refer to the metric conversion factors listed in the General Safety section
for SI Unit measurement conversions.
Table 2 - Gas Pipe Size
PIPE SIZING
To provide adequate gas pressure to 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
2. Refer to Table 2. Match “Length of Pipe in Feet”
with appropriate “Gas Input - Cu. Ft./Hr.” figure.
This figure can then be matched to the pipe size at
the top of the column.
Example:
It is determined that a 67 foot (20.4m) run of gas
pipe is required to connect a 75 MBTU gas unit
heater to a 1,000 BTU/cu ft. (0.29kW) natural gas
supply.
75,000 BTU/Hr
= 75 Cu. ft./hr.
1,000 BTU/cu. ft.
Using Table 2, a 3/4 inch pipe is needed.
NOTE: See General Safety Information section for
English/Metric unit conversion factors.
