We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg in supply line as shown in Figure 41. Locate
sediment trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel
supply and burner system. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not likely to freeze.
A sediment trap collects moisture and contaminants and keeps them from going into the burner
system gas controls. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is installed wrong, burner system
may not run properly.
