Gas Connection Pipe Sizes
The size of the gas line used for installation is very important. If the line is too small, the gas pressure at the burner manifold will be low. This may cause slow recovery and delayed ignition. The incoming gas supply line should be a minimum of ½ 13 mm in diameter. Refer to the chart below for the minimum sizes of connection piping
