Optional Gas Heat

These gas-fired heaters have aluminized-steel or optional
stainless steel, tubular heat exchangers with spark ignition with
proven pilot.

Gas Piping
Proper sizing of gas piping depends on the cubic feet per hour
of gas flow required, specific gravity of the gas and the length of
run. "National Fuel Gas Code" Z223.1 (in U.S.A.) or the current
Gas Installation Codes CSA-B149.1 (in Canada) should be
followed in all cases unless superseded by local codes or gas
utility requirements. Refer to the Pipe Sizing Table 13. The
heating value of the gas may differ with locality. The value
should be checked with the local gas utility.
NOTE: There may be a local gas utility requirement specifying
a minimum diameter for gas piping. All units require a
one-inch pipe connection at the entrance fitting.

Gas Connection
The gas supply line can be routed within the space and roof curb,
exiting through the unit's basepan. Refer to Figure 5 for the gas
piping inlet location. Typical supply piping arrangements are
shown in Figures 16 and 17. All pipe nipples, fittings, and the gas
cock are field supplied.
Gas piping recommendations:
1. A drip leg and a ground joint union must be installed in the
gas piping.
2. Where required by local codes, a manual shut-off valve
must be installed outside of the unit.
3. Use wrought iron or steel pipe for all gas lines. Pipe dope
should be applied sparingly to male threads only.
