GAS LINE PIPING

Refer to the piping chart at the bottom of previous page.
The corrugated gas line from the manifold is 58 inches long. Do not
extend the gas line.
We have provided the means to make an SAE 45° fl are connection. Do
not use pipe sealant on this connection.
If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet, use a 5/8" O.D.
tube. One size larger should be used for lengths greater than 50 feet.
Refer to piping chart.
Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyethylene plastic
tube, with a minimum wall thickness of .062 inch; or standard weight
(schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe.
Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more than 0.3
grams of hydrogen sulfi de per 100 cubic feet of gas.
Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use.
Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may
corrode the piping, must be protected against corrosion in an approved
manner.
Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.

TEST CONNECTIONS

All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for leaks in accordance
with local codes and all listed procedures in the latest edition of the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
Do not use an open fl ame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
fl ames in the area while you check for gas
leaks. This will result in a fi re or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death, and damage to property.
