9. Gas Line Piping

Gas supply piping is to be sized and installed properly in order to provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum demand without undue loss of pressure between the meter and the boiler. Consult with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 for proper sizing of gas piping for various lengths and diameters.

Locate a drop pipe adjacent to, but not in front of the boiler. Locate a tee in the drop pipe at the same elevation as the gas inlet connection to the boiler. Extend the drop line with a nipple towards the floor and cap to form a sediment trap. Install a shut off valve before the tee with sediment trap and a union after the tee before the combination gas valve.

When installing the boiler, make sure a pipe compound resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum is used. Check piping for leaks. Always check leaks with a water and soap solution. DO NOT USE A FLAME FOR CHECKING GAS LEAKS

The boiler and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that piping at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi.
