must be installed. Your gas supplier provides the external regulator for natural gas.
The installer must supply an external regulator for liquid propane. For natural gas, the gas supplier supplies
the external regulator. The external regulator reduces incoming gas pressure, and the pressure must be
reduced to between
11" and 14" of water column for propane and between 6" and 7" (B-Series) or 5" and
11" (R-Series) of water column for natural
incoming gas is not reduced. Install the external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Fig. 10.
The purpose of pointing the vent down is to protect it from freezing rain or sleet.

to allow proper volume gas to heater. If the pipe is too small, loss of pressure will occur. Installation must
include an equipment shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. The NPT tap must be located within
reach for the test gauge hook up and be upstream from heater (see Fig. 11).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve in an accessible location. The equipment shutoff valve is for
turning on or shutting off the gas to the heater. Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to the male threads. This
prevents excess sealant from going into the pipe. The heater valves may become clogged if excess sealant
gets into the pipes.
