WARNING
There will be air in the gas supply line after testing for leaks
on a new installation. Therefore, the air must be bled from
the line by loosening the ground joint union until pure gas is
expelled. Tighten union and wait for five minutes until all gas
has been dissipated in the air. Be certain there is no open
flame in the vicinity during air bleeding procedure. The unit is
placed in operation by closing the main electrical disconnect
switch for the unit.

Complete information regarding tank sizing for
vaporization, recommended regulator settings and pipe
sizing is available from most regulator manufacturers and
propane gas suppliers.
Since propane gas will quickly dissolve white lead or most
standard commercial compounds, special pipe dope
must be used. Shellac base compounds resistant to the
actions of liquefied petroleum gases such as Gasolac

2. All units are furnished with standard female NPT pipe
connections. Connection pipe size is 3/4" NPT. The
size of the gas supply piping to the unit must be based
on length of run, number of units on the system, gas
characteristics, BTU requirement and available supply
pressure. All piping must be done in accordance with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the
latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI
