Pipe Sizing for Gas Connection
The capacities shown below are based on using SCH
40 black iron pipe. For capacities using other materials,
consult local codes.

* A 3/4" gas line can be used for up to 5' (1.5 m) maximum length from
the gas valve in addition to the sediment trap.

Gas Regulator Best Practices
From the gas pressure regulator, it is recommended to
have no less than 10 pipe diameters of straight smooth
pipe downstream of the regulator discharge and to have
no less than 10 linear feet (not including ttings) between
the regulator and the inlet to the appliance for proper
operation.

* When flow rates exceed maximum GPM an external auxiliary bypass
valve is required. See External Bypass Valve Section on page 21
for details.
