ORIFICE SIZES
The efficiency rating of this appliance is a product thermal
efficiency rating determined under continuous operating
conditions and was determined independently of any
installed system. For elevations above 2,000 feet, reduce
ratings 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level.

GAS PIPING
The gas supply line must be of adequate size to handle the
Btu/hr. requirements and length of the run for the unit being
installed.
Determine the minimum pipe size from Figure 13, based on
the length of the run from the gas meter to the unit.
All piping must comply with local codes and ordinances
or with the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1 NFPA No.
54), whichever applies. (In Canada: CAN/C.GA B149). Refer
to FIGURE 14 for the general layout of the unit. It shows the
basic fittings needed.
The following rules apply:
1.
Use new, properly reamed steel or black iron pipe and
fittings free of metal chips and debris that are approved by
local codes. Metal chips and debris can damage the valve.

2.
Do not thread pipe too far. Valve distortion or malfunction
may result from excess pipe within the gas control valve.
Apply a moderate amount of good quality dope to the
pipe only. Leave the two end threads bare. Figure 15
3.
Use ground joint unions.
4.
Install a drip leg (sediment trap) to trap dirt and moisture
before it can enter the gas valve. The nipple must be a
minimum of 3-inches long.
5.
Install a manual shutoff valve.
6.
Provide a 1/8" NPT test gauge connection immediately
before the gas supply connection to the furnace.

GAS CONNECTION
If the installation is for propane gas, have the propane installer
use a two stage regulator and make all the connections from
the storage tank.
Use two pipe wrenches when making the connection to the
valve to prevent turning and/or damage to the valve.
Connections between the manual shutoff valve and burner
control assembly can be made with an A.G.A./C.G.A. design
certified flexible connector if allowed by local codes. Drip leg
and ground joint unions are still required.
Tighten all joints securely.
Test all piping for leaks. When checking gas piping to the
furnace with gas pressure less than 1/2 PSI, shut off manual
gas valve to the furnace. If gas piping is to be checked with
the pressure at or above 1/2 PSI, the furnace and manual
shutoff valve must be disconnected during testing. (SEE
WARNING). Apply soap solution (or a liquid detergent) to
each joint. Bubbles forming indicate a leak. Correct even the
slightest leak at once.
