GHND-SVX01A-EN • High Efficiency Propeller Fan Gas Unit Heater 17
Gas Supply Piping
Notes: Determine the required Cu. Ft. / Hr. by dividing the rated heater input by 1000. For SI / Metric
measurements: Convert unit Btu. / Hr. to kilowatts. Multiply the units input (kW) by 0.0965 to determine
Cubic Meters / Hour.
Notes: FOR NATURAL GAS: Select the pipe size directly from the table.
Notes: FOR PROPANE GAS: Multiply the Cu. Ft. / Hr. (Cubic Meters per Hour) value by 0.633; then us e the table.
