 Do not over tighten the inlet gas 
piping into the valve. This may cause stresses that 
will crack the valve!
NOTICE: Use pipe joint sealant resistant to the 
action of liquefied petroleum gases regardless of 
gas conducted.
 Check all pipe joints for leakage 
using a soap solution or other approved method.  
Never use an open flame or severe personal 
injury or death may occur!
Figure 6 - Pipe Installation, Standard Controls
 Never use an open fl ame to detect 
gas leaks. Explosive conditions may exist which 
may result in personal injury or death!
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be 
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during 
any pressure testing of that system in excess of 1/2 psig 
(3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply 
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply 
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 
1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
PIPE INSTALLATION
1.  Install the gas piping in accordance with applicable 
local codes.
2.  Check gas supply pressure. Each unit heater must 
be connected to a gas supply capable of supplying 
its full rated capacity as specifi ed in Table 3. A fi eld 
LP tank regulator must be used to limit the supply 
pressure to a maximum of 14 in. W.C. (3.5 kPa). 
All piping should be sized in accordance with the 
latest edition of ANSI Standard Z223.1 National 
Fuel Gas Code; in Canada, according to CGA-B149. 
See Tables 1 & 2 for correct gas piping size, and 
also refer to Tables 3, 7 and 8. If gas pressure is 
excessive on natural gas applications, install a 
pressure regulating valve in the line upstream from 
the main shutoff valve.
3.  Adequately support the piping to prevent strain on 
the gas manifold and controls.
4.  To prevent the mixing of moisture with gas, run the 
take-off piping from the top, or side, of the main.
5.  Standard Unit Heaters are supplied with a 
combination valve which includes:
 
a. Manual "A" valve
 
b. Manual "B" valve
 
c. Solenoid valve
 
d. Pressure regulator
 
Pipe directly into the  combination valve (see Figure 
6).
6.  Gas valve has a pressure test post requiring a 
3/32" hex head wrench to read gas supply and 
manifold pressures. Open 1/4 turn counterclockwise 
to read, turn clockwise to close and reseat. A 5/16" 
ID hose fi ts the pressure post.
7.  Provide a drip leg in the gas piping near the gas 
unit heater. A ground joint union and a manual gas 
shutoff valve should be installed ahead of the unit 
heater controls to permit servicing. The manual 
shutoff valve must be located external to the jacket.  
(See Figure 6)
8.  Make certain that all connections have been 
adequately doped and tightened.
