Refer to the Proper Piping Practice drawing for the general
layout at the unit. The following rules apply:
1. Use black iron pipe and fittings for the supply piping.
The use of a flex connector and/or copper piping is
permitted as long as it is in agreement with local
codes.
2. Use pipe joint compound on male threads only. Pipe
joint compound must be resistant to the action of the
fuel used.
3. Use ground joint unions.
4. Install a drip leg to trap dirt and moisture before it can
enter the gas valve. The drip leg must be a minimum
of three inches long.
5. Use two pipe wrenches when making connection to
the gas valve to keep it from turning.
6. Install a manual shut-off valve in a convenient location
(within six feet of unit) between the meter and the
unit.
7. Tighten all joints securely.
8. The unit must be connected to the building piping by
one of the following methods:
• Rigid metallic pipe and fittings
• Semirigid metallic tubing and metallic fittings
(Aluminum alloy tubing must not be used in exterior
locations)
• Listed gas appliance connectors used in accordance
with the terms of their listing that are completely in
the same room as the equipment
• In the prior two methods above the connector or
tubing must be protected from physical and thermal
damage. Aluminum alloy tubing and connectors must
be coated to protect against external corrosion when
in contact with masonry, plaster or insulation or are
subject to repeated wettings by liquids (water - not
rain water, detergents or sewage).
