G. GAS INFORMATION

It is your responsibility to have ALL plumbing connections made by a qualified professional to ensure that the
gas plumbing installation is adequate and conforms to local and state regulations or codes. In the absence of
such codes, ALL plumbing connections, materials, and workmanship must conform to the applicable requirements
of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the Canadian Installation Codes
CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST
EDITION.

IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with codes or ordinances, and/or requirements in this manual, can

result in personal injury and improper operation of the dryer.

The dryer and its individual shutoff valves must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The dryer must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate or disconnect the dryer from supply as noted can cause irreparable

damage to the gas valve, which will VOID THE WARRANTY.

WARNING: FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT DUE TO FAILURE OF

ISOLATING OR DISCONNECTING THE GAS SUPPLY AS NOTED.
