any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor's phone. Follow gas supplier's
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire

7.1 General
• Use piping materials and joining methods acceptable
to authority having jurisdiction. In absence of such
requirements:
• USA - National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
• Size and install gas piping system to provide sufficient gas
supply to meet maximum input at not less than minimum
supply pressure. See Table 10.
• Support piping with hooks straps, bands, brackets,
hangers, or building structure components to prevent or
dampen excessive vibrations and prevent strain on gas
connection. Boiler will not support piping weight.
• Use thread (joint) compound (pipe dope) suitable for
liquefied petroleum gas.
• Provide sediment trap up stream of gas valve.
• Install manual main shutoff valve outside of jacket. See
figure 7-2.
