U S E A N D C A R E | Natural Gas Connections and Service Regulators Above 1/2 psi. |
| |
| Prior to 1998, all residual gas service regulators were set with an outlet pressure of 7 inches | ||
| water column. |
| |
| In the 1998 edition of NFPA 54, the National Fuel Gas Code, a change was made allowing | ||
| service regulators of 2 and 5 psi. |
| |
| With this change it was also required that an in line regulator be connected between the | ||
| service regulator and the appliance regulator if the 2 or 5 psi system is used. This additional | ||
| regulator is not supplied with the product. |
| |
| It is possible for a consumer, making the connection themselves, or a plumber, not check- | ||
| ing, to tap into a 2 or 5 psi line. If a pressure of 2 psi or greater is supplied to the appliance | ||
| regulator on certain grills it will shut down and not deliver any gas to the grill. Other con- | ||
| cerns are the quick disconnect socket and hose which are only rated to 1/2 psi. |
| |
| If the quick disconnect socket, hose, and grill are properly connected and still not getting | ||
| gas, delivery pressure needs to be verified. If pressure is greater than 1/2 psi, make sure that | ||
| an in line regulator is present. |
| |
| Once the grill has been | ||
| The best practice is to replace the regulator. |
