GAS CONNECTIONS AND REGULATION
1. Connect to the supply tank or manifold in accordance with the latest edition of National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI
Z223.1), and local building codes. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before the installation is
made.
2. All gas supply lines must be located in accordance with the required clearances to combustibles below the
heater as listed on the nameplate of the heater.
3. Pipe joint compounds must be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases.
4. Where local codes do not prohibit, a CSA or U.L. approved flexible connector (minimum 5/8” I.D.) is
recommended between the rigid piping and the heater. A union and an approved shut-off valve should be
installed before the control valve inlet. The shut-off valve should be installed within 6 feet of the union.
