A gas valve and ground joint union should be installed in the gas
line upstream of the gas control to aid in servicing. It is required
by the National Fuel Gas Code that a drip leg be installed near
the gas inlet. See Figure 13. This should consist of a vertical
length of pipe tee connected into the gas line that is capped
on the bottom in which condensation and foreign particles may
collect.
