GAS PIPING

A properly sized gas supply system is essential for maximum oven performance. Piping should be sized to provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum demand of all appliances on the line without loss of pressure at the equipment.

Example:

NOTE: BTU values in the following example are for natural gas.

You purchase a BC-20G to add to your existing cook line.

1. Add the BTU rating of your current appliances.

120,000

BTU

6 Burner Range

60,000

BTU

Deck Oven

50,000

BTU

Total

230,000

BTU

2.Add the BTU rating of the new oven to the to- tal.

Previous Total

230,000 BTU

BC-20G (for hot air)

125,000 BTU

New Total

355,000 BTU

3.Measure the distance from the gas meter to the cook line. This is the pipe length. Let’s say the pipe length is 20’ (6 m) and the pipe size is 1” (2.54 cm).

4.Use the appropriate table to determine the to- tal capacity of your current gas piping.

The total capacity for this example is 465,000 BTU. Since the total required gas pressure, 355,000 BTU is less than 465,000 BTU, the current gas piping will not have to be in- creased.

NOTE: The BTU capacities given in the tables are for straight pipe lengths only. Any elbows or other fittings will decrease pipe capaci- ties. For example: a schedule 40-1/2” el- bow fitting has an equivalent cpapacity of 4.2” (10.2 cm) of straight pipe. Contact your local gas supplier if you have any questions.
