Gas Piping
In the United States, the gas piping should be installed in
accordance with ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 and any local codes.
In Canada, the gas piping should be installed in accordance
with CAN/CSA-B149, and in accordance with any local codes.
The gas piping may enter the furnace from either side.
Install a BMI ground joint union between the gas valve and
the side panel to allow easy removal of the burner for
service purposes.
CAUTION
ENSURE THAT THE MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE AND GAS
VALVE ARE NOT SUBJECTED TO HIGH PRESSURES.
DISCONNECT THE MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE AND GAS
VALVE DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING THAT EXCEEDS
1/2 P.S.I.G. (3.45 KPA
).

These pressures must be maintained while all other gas
fired appliances are operating at maximum conditions.
exceed 10.5 inches w.c. inlet pressure with NG.
The gas valve has an adjustable internal regulator for
controlling burner manifold pressure. Burner manifold
pressure is listed on the furnace rating plate.
Leak Testing
All new gas piping installations should be pressure tested as
specified by CAN/CGA-B149 or NFPA 54 ANSI Z223.1 or

above floor level to prevent tampering by small children.
Ensure that the valve is readily accessible.
If local codes allow the use of a flexible gas appliance
connector, always use a new listed connector. Do not use a
connector which has previously serviced another gas
appliance.
