Gas pressure within the system
Refer to the figures below for natural gas or L.P.G gas pressures.
The pressure at the boiler must not be less than the pressure read at the
meter less 1 mbar for natural gas and less 2.5mbar for L.P.G.
The pressure drop from the meter to the gas valve must not be more than
2.5 mbar for natural gas or more than 4 mbar for L.P.G.
If the pressure drops are greater than shown below, then this would
indicate a problem with the pipe work or connections within the system.
