III. GAS PIPING

A separate gas supply line should be installed to run directly

from meter to heating section. Check the local utility for

recommendations concerning existing lines. Choose a supply

pipe large enough to keep pressure loss as low as practical.

Never use pipe smaller than gas connection to heating sec­

tion. Observe local codes for all gas pipe installations. Refer

to the national codes indicated on the first page of the in­

structions in the absence of local building codes. The fol­

lowing are pertinent recommendations:

1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. It is best to grade

all pipe 1/4 inch in every 15 feet to prevent traps. All

horizontal runs should grade downward to risers. Risers

should be used to connect to heating section and to

meter.

2. Install drip leg in riser leading to heating section. Drip

leg will function as trap for dirt and condensate. Install

drip legs where condensate will not freeze.

3. Install external manual shut-off valve in gas supply

pipe near heating section.

4. Where local codes permit, we recommend using flexible

gas pipe to make connection between rigid, gas piping

and unit gas valve to ensure proper alignment between

manifold orifices and burners. Gas supply pipe enters

unit through access hole provided. See Figure 2 for loca­

tion. Gas connection to unit is made to 1/2-inch FPT gas

inlet on gas valve. See Figure 7.

5. Install ground joint union close to heating section be­

tween gas valve and manual shut-off valve.

6. Support all piping with appropriate hangers, etc. Use

minimum of one hanger in every 6 feet. For pipe size

other than 1/2 inch, follow recommendations of the na­

tional codes.

7. Use joint compound (pipe dope) that is resistant to

action of liquefied petroleum gases.

NOTE: Teflon tape is not recommended.

WARNING: Never use a match or other open flame when

checking for gas leaks.

8. After all connections are made, use soap-and-water solu­

tion to check for leaks (or method specified by local

utility regulations) at all field installed and factory in­

stalled gas lines.

IV. DUCT CONNECTIONS

Flanges are provided on the unit supply- and return-air

openings for duct connections. See Figure 2 for connection

sizes and locations. See Figures 8, 9, and 10 for illustrations

of typical installations.

economizer, use the accessory Installation Instructions in con-
