INSTALLATION
CONTINUED
WARNING: A qualified service
person must connect heater to
gas supply. Follow all local codes.
WARNING: This appliance re-
quires a 3/8" NPT (National Pipe
Thread) inlet connection to the
pressure regulator.
WARNING: Do not over tighten
gas connections.
WARNING: Never connect
heater to private ( non-utility )
gas well.This gas is commonly
known as well-head gas.
CAUTION: Use only new, black
iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned
copper tubing may be used in
certain areas. Check your local
codes. Use pipe of large enough
diameter to allow proper gas volume
to heater. If pipe is too small,
undue loss of pressure will occur.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to
natural gas.
CAUTION: Avoid damage to
regulator. Hold gas regulator with
wrench when connecting to gas
piping and/or fittings.
*A CSA/AGA design-certified equip-
ment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT
tap is an acceptable alternative to
test gauge connection.
