CAUTION: Use only new,
black iron or steel pipe. Copper
tubing may be acceptable in cer-
tain areas. Check local codes.
Use pipe large enough in diam-
eter to allow proper gas volume
to furnace. If pipe is too small,
undue loss of pressure will oc-
cur. Refer to chart on page 9.
WARNING: Unplug furnace
before connecting to gas supply.
WARNING: Never connect
furnace to private (non-utility) gas
wells. This gas is commonly
known as wellhead gas.
WARNING: A qualified ser-
vice person must connect fur-
nace to gas supply. Follow all
local codes.
CAUTION: Lightly apply pipe
joint sealant to male threads be-
fore connecting. Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to liquid
petroleum (LP) gas.
CONNECTING TO GAS
SUPPLY
All piping must comply with local codes
and ordinances or with the National Fuel
Gas Code (ANS Z223.1 NFPA No. 54),
whichever applies.
You can connect furnace to gas supply at
front of furnace (inside) or at rear of furnace
(outside).
Connecting Furnace to Gas
Supply at Front of Furnace
1.
Locate gas inlet pipe on lower, right
front of furnace (see Figure 8).
2.
Connect 3/8" NPT pipe or nipple to gas
inlet pipe (see Figure 8). See Provid-
ing Gas Piping to Furnace, pages 9 and
