NOTE
• Ensure that the gas pipe size
is correct. If undersized the
appliance will not operate
correctly.
• SERVICE CALLS ARE CHARGEABLE
FOR UNITS WITH INCORRECT PIPE
SIZES OR BLOCKED GAS OR WATER
FILTERS.
Flexible Connectors
Flexible gas pipes are not recommended unless the
minimum inside diameter is ¾ in. or greater and
the rated capacity of the connector is equal to or
greater than the MJ/h demand of the Water Heater.
Reference Tools & Sample Calculations
The tables and samples below are for reference
only. The professional sizing and installing the
gas pipe should always run the appropriate
calculations before all installations.
NOTICE
[Calculation Example]
A partial set of sizing tables are printed on page
17-18.
1. Draw a sketch of a piping system.
Enter the system information.

3. • On the sketch, mark the delivery point (meter
or regulator) as “a” and the first tee as “b”. Let
the section “a-b” be the first section.
• Section from the first tee “b” to the second
tee “c” set “b-c” and set the section to the
next tee in the same way.
