Run the Gas Line
If gas piping from the source to the heater location has
not been accomplished, install the required pipe. Con-
sult local plumbing code to assure proper pipe size.
The gas pipeline to be brought in through the rear or
the base of the heater.
NOTE:
The gas line connection can be made with
properly tinned 3/8" copper tubing, 1/2" rigid pipe or an
approved flex connector, then reduced to 3/8" to the
heater. Because some municipalities have some addi-
tional local codes, it is always best to consult your local
authority. Consult the current National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
Always check for gas leaks with a mild
soap and water solution. Do not use an
open flame for leak testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type
pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro-
vide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or flex connector use only approved
fittings.
Always provide a union
when using black
iron pipe so that gas line can be easily disconnected
for burner or fan servicing. See gas specification for
pressure details and ratings.
NOTE:
If flex connector is
used, it must be kept inside of the heater. (Fig. 3)
