Never connect heater to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is
commonly known as well-head gas.

Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, ground joint union, and plugged
1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must
be upstream from heater (see Figure 10, page 10).

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant
from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged heater valves.

Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 10. Locate sediment trap
where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is
not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps
them from going into heater controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed
wrong, heater may not run properly.

in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe 3/8" diameter or
greater to allow proper gas volume to heater. If pipe is too small,
undue loss of pressure will occur.
