NOTES:
1. Follow all local and national LP gas codes for line sizing and equipment
requirements.
2. Verify that inlet gas pressure remains between 4 and 13 inches of water
column before and during operation.

TO SIZE PIPING:
Measure linear distance from meter outlet to last
boiler. Add total input of all boilers and divide
by 1000 to obtain cu ft / hr required. Add total
equivalent length of ttings used according to
Table 6B. Align total length (pipe and ttings) on
left side column of Table 6C with highest cubic
feet of gas required.
Notes:
Consult and conrm with Applicable Fuel Gas
Code before beginning work. Verify gas inlet
pressure is between 4 and 13 in W.C. before
starting boiler.
