4.9.1 FOR NATURAL GAS
Maximum Capacity of pipe in Cubic Feet of Gas per Hour for Gas Pressure of 0.5 Psig or less and a Pressure drop of 0.3" in Water Column
(0.75mbar).(Based on a 0.60 Specific Gravity Gas) BTU numbers given in thousands.
Follow boxed numbers for piping just one 830 ES (example: ¾" B.I. Natural Gas pipe for 10 ft (3.0m) will handle 278,000 BTU/hr (81.5 kW). For
multiple appliances combine the total maximum BTU/hr input load and then refer to applicable chart below.
