V-HEATING SYSTEM SERVICE CHECKS
A-CSA Certification
All units are CSA design certified without modifications. Re­
fer to the SLP99DFV Installation Instruction.
B-Gas Piping
CAUTION
If a flexible gas connector is required or allowed by
the authority that has jurisdiction, black iron pipe
shall be installed at the gas valve and extend outside
the furnace cabinet. The flexible connector can then
be added between the black iron pipe and the gas
supply line.
WARNING
Do not over torque (800 in-lbs) or under torque (350
in-lbs) when attaching the gas piping to the gas valve.
Gas supply piping should not allow more than 0.5"W.C. drop
in pressure between gas meter and unit. Supply gas pipe
must not be smaller than unit gas connection.
Compounds used on gas piping threaded joints should be
resistant to action of liquefied petroleum gases.
C-Testing Gas Piping
IMPORTANT
In case emergency shutdown is required, turn off
the main shut‐off valve and disconnect the main
power to unit. These controls should be properly
labeled by the installer.
When pressure testing gas lines, the gas valve must be dis­
connected and isolated. Gas valves can be damaged if sub­
jected to more than 0.5psig (14" W.C.). See figure 48.

When checking piping connections for gas leaks, use pre­
ferred means. Kitchen detergents can cause harmful corro­
sion on various metals used in gas piping. Use of a specialty
Gas Leak Detector is strongly recommended. It is available
through Lennox under part number 31B2001. See Corp.
8411-L10, for further details.
Do not use matches, candles, flame or any other source of
ignition to check for gas leaks.
