Installation of Gas Piping
IMPORTANT
All gas piping must be installed in accordance
with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI/Z223.1 and any local codes that may
apply. In Canada, the equipment shall be installed
in accordance with the Installation Code for Gas
Burning Appliances and Equipment (CGA B149) and
Provincial Regulations for the class. Authorities
having jurisdiction should be consulted before
installations are made.
IMPORTANT
All piping should be clean and free of any foreign
material. Foreign material entering the gas train can
cause damage.
WARNING
All components of this or any other gas fired heating
unit must be leak tested prior to placing the unit
into operation. A soap and water solution should be
used to perform this test. NEVER test for gas leaks
with an open flame.
IMPORTANT
Do NOT connect the unit to gas types other than
what is specified and do NOT connect the unit to
gas pressures that are outside of the pressure range
shown on the label.
WARNING
When leak testing pressures equal to or less than
14 in. wc (3.5 KPa), first close the field-installed
shutoff valve to isolate the unit from the gas supply
line.
NOTE
When connecting the gas supply, the length of the
run must be considered in determining the pipe size
to avoid excessive pressure drop. Refer to a Gas
Engineer’s Handbook for gas pipe capacities.
NOTE
Each furnace has a single 3/4-inch connection.
1. Determine the Supply Gas
Requirements
The unit’s nameplate states the requirements for the
gas being supplied to the unit.
4. Test the System for Leaks
Check both the supply lines and the factory piping for
leaks. Apply a soap and water solution to all piping
and watch for bubbling which indicates a leak.
WARNING
NEVER test for a gas leak with an open flame.
WARNING
The factory piping has been checked for leaks, but
should be rechecked due to shipping and installation.

2. Install Additional Regulator if Required
When the supply gas pressure exceeds the maximum
gas pressure shown on the unit’s nameplate, an
additional regulator (by others) is required to reduce
the pressure. The regulator
must have a listed leak
limiting device or it must
be vented to
the outdoors.

3. Connect the Supply Gas Line
A manual shut off valve (gas cock), 1/8 inch plugged
test port and 6 inch drip leg must be installed prior
to the gas train. The valve and the test port must be
accessible for the connection of a test gauge. Supply
gas connections must be made by a qualified installer
and are not furnished by
Greenheck.
