8.1.2 Gas Line Sizing Tables for LP GAS
For your convenience see below for an excerpt from gas line sizing tables for a single LP appliance. Their intended use of is for pipe sizing between the
the 2nd stage (low pressure) regulator and the appliance. For details see the current NFPA 54 or NFPA 58.
Specified pipe lengths are for one 940 ESO which has a maximum input of 199,000. The gas supply system must be sized for the combined total
maximum BTU/hr load requirements of all gas appliances running simultaneously.
The tables below show the maximum capacity of the gas supply pipe in thousands of BTU per hour of Undiluted LP Gas at 11" W.C (0.4 psig or 27.4
mbar) based on a pressure drop of 0.5" W.C (1.25 mbar).

Water connections

NOTICE:
▶ This heater is not approved for preheated water
applications exceeding 140°F (60°C).
NOTICE:
▶ In applications where inlet water temperature can
exceed 140°F (60ºC), a 3-way valve or mixing valve
must be installed before the appliance to prevent
water exceeding 140°F (60°C) from entering the
appliance.
▶ When facing the heater, the ¾ " cold connection is on the bottom
right and the hot connection is on the bottom left. Centrally locating
the water heater is recommended to keep hot water distribution
times even throughout the structure.
