Pipe directly in to combination valve (see 
5. A 1/8 in. N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test 
gauge connection, must be installed immediately 
upstream of the gas supply connection to the 
appliance.
6. Provide a drip leg in the gas piping near the gas duct 
furnace. A ground joint union and a manual gas shutoff 
valve should be installed ahead of the unit heater 
controls to permit servicing. The manual main shutoff 
valve must be located external to the jacket (see 
7.
Make certain that all connections have been 
adequately doped and tightened.
Note: Use pipe joint sealant resistant to the action of 
liquefied petroleum gases regardless of gas 
conducted.
The appliance and its individual shutoff 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 (3.5 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).
Installation: Venting
ANSI now organizes vented appliances into four 
categories.
Category I
Includes non-condensing appliances with negative vent 
pressure, like the traditional atmospheric unit heater.
Category II
Groups condensing appliances with negative vent 
pressure.
Category III
Appliances are non-condensing and operate with a 
positive vent pressure.
Category IV
Covers condensing appliances with positive vent 
pressure.
Note: Category II and IV do not apply to equipment 
specified within this manual.
NOTICE: 
Overtightening!
Do not overtighten the inlet gas piping into the valve. 
This may cause stresses that could crack the valve!
WARNING
Hazard of Explosion!
Never use an open flame to detect gas leaks. Explosive 
conditions may occur. Use a leak test solution or other 
approved methods for leak testing. Failure to follow 
recommended safe leak test procedures could result in 
death or serious injury or equipment or property-only-
damage.
