FOR L. P. GAS, CORRECT THE TOTAL BTU/HR. BY MULTIPLYING IT BY 0.6. THE ANSWER IS THE
EQUIVALENT BTU ON THE ABOVE CHART.
IMPORTANT: The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes:
• with the latest edition of the “National Fuel Gas Code”, ANSI Z223.1 in the U.S.A.,
• with CAN1-B149.1 or CAN1-B149.2 in Canada,
• and Australian Gas Association / Australian LP Gas Association requirements in Australia.
