Fuel Pipe Sizing

There are numerous on-line or otherwise-published references for fuel pipe sizing. The installer should consider the specific gravity of gas and compensate for a nominal amount of restriction from bends, fittings, etc. If an unusual number of fittings, bends, or other restrictions are used, please refer to federal and local codes.
