Consistent gas pressure is essential at ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a
IMPORTANT: A water column pressure of 3.5 inches (8.7 mb) for natural gas and 10.5 inches (26.1 mb) for liquid propane (L.P.) dryers is required at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer for proper and safe operation.
A
IMPORTANT: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of natural and L.P. gases must be used.
IMPORTANT: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid detergent works well).
WARNING: NEVER TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH A FLAME!!!
ALL components/materials must conform to National Fuel Gas Code Specifications ANSI
IMPORTANT: The dryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
H. WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION FOR OPTIONAL SPRINKLER SYSTEM
If the optional sprinkler system was purchased with the dryer, connect a
