The gas piping supplying the furnace must be properly sized
based on the gas flow required, specific gravity of the gas, and
length of the run. The gas line installation must comply with
local codes, or in their absence, with the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1.

To connect the furnace to the building’s gas piping, the installer
must supply a ground joint union, drip leg, manual shutoff valve,
and line and fittings to connect to gas valve. In some cases,
the installer may also need to supply a transition piece from 1/
2" pipe to a larger pipe size.
