4. All piping should be cleaned of dirt and scale by
hammering on the outside of the pipe and blowing
out the loose dirt and scale. Before initial start-up,
be sure that all of the gas lines external to the unit
have been purged of air.
5. The gas supply should be a separate line and
installed in accordance with all safety codes as
prescribed under "Limitations". After the gas con-
nections have been completed, open the main
shut-off valve admitting normal gas pressure to the
mains. Check all joints for leaks with soap solution
or other material suitable for the purpose. NEVER
USE A FLAME.
6. The furnace and its individual manual shut-off
valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(3.48kPa).
The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-
off valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal to or
less than 1/2 psig (3.48kPa).
7. A 1/8 inch NPT plugged tap, accessible for test
gage connection, must be installed immediately
upstream of the gas supply connection to the fur-
nace.
L.P. UNITS, TANKS AND PIPING
All gas heat units are shipped from the factory
equipped for natural gas use only. The unit may be
converted in the field for use with L.P./propane gas
with accessory kit model number 1NP0418.
All L.P./propane gas equipment must conform to the
safety standards of the National Fire Protection Associ-
ation.
Natural gas may contain some propane. Pro-
pane, being an excellent solvent, will quickly
dissolve white lead or most standard commer-
cial compounds. Therefore, a special pipe
compound must be applied when wrought iron
or steel pipe is used. Shellac base compounds
such as Gaskolac or Stalastic, and compounds
such as Rectorseal #5, Clyde's or John Crane
may be used.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE SAFETY WARN-
ING EXACTLY COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY, DEATH OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
NEVER TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH AN
OPEN FLAME. USE A COMMERICALLY
AVAILABLE SOAP SOLUTION MADE SPE-
CIFICALLY FOR THE DETECTION OF
LEAKS TO CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS. A
FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUS-
ING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL
INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
