NOTE: External tank installations must comply with theNational Fire Protection Association code NFPA31 or locally applicable codes, such as the 1979Uniform Mechanical Code No.5-1. that areconsistent with NFPA 31. Check with your localbuilding official.

To install a large capacity, gravity fed external tank,follow the instructions below, and refer to Figure 27for one possible installation. Use of a qualified installeris recommended.• Installation height of the bottom of the fuel tank

should be 16 inches or more above the floor surfaceon which the heater stands. This insures that inletfuel pressure will be sufficient.

• The top of the fuel tank should be no higher thanSKfeet above the floor under the heater. This insuresthat inlet fuel pressure will not be excessive.

• The horizontal length of piping should not exceed

100 feet and should be free of sharp bends orobstructions.

• Piping should include no inverse U-type bends (toavoid air locks, which could block the fuel supply).

• Only %inch OD copper tubing should be used.The tubing should be bent carefully to avoid crimping.

• A fuel filter is recommended for use on the fuel linenear the tank, and a shut-off valve should be installedat the tank.

• Flare connections should be used at the fusible linkvalve connection on the heater and at the fuel filterto be installed at the tank.

• The fuel tank should be located no closer than 6feet to a source of heat.

• The fuel tank should have an opening for filling onthe top and a vent with a weather-proof cap on theside. On some tanks the vent and fill spout use thesame opening.

When using a gravity fed tank to supply fuel, the inletpressure to the heater must not exceed 2.5 psi.
