Gas Line Install

!The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow ANSI Z223.1 and the requirements listed below.

!The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures under 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.

¥Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the heater.

Gas Line Connection

Fuel

¥This heater is designed for natural gas but can be converted to propane (see page 31). Check the sticker on the top of the gas control valve to make sure the correct fuel is used.

Gas Inlet Pressure

¥With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below

?If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.

?The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.

Minimum Input Pressure

Natural Gas	5.5" W.C.
Propane	11" W.C.
