Installation instructions

FOR NATURAL GAS

Maximum Capacity of pipe in Cubic Feet of Gas per Hour for Gas Pressure of 0.5 Psig or less and a Pressure drop of 0.3” in Water Column (0.75mbar).(Based on a 0.60 Specific Gravity Gas) Btu numbers given in thousands.

Follow boxed numbers for piping just one GWH 2700 ES (example: ¾” B.I. Natural Gas pipe for 10 ft (3.0m). will handle 278,000 btu’s (81.5 kWh). For multiple appliances combine the total maximum btu input load and then refer to applicable chart below.
