ENGINEERING DATA HEATER GAS SUPPLY AND PIPE SIZING INFORMATION
When installing any Pentair or Sta-Rite pool or spa heater, it is very important to have the proper amount of gas supplied to all Pentair or Sta-Rite Heaters for pools. Below, for your information, is a table which will assist you in selecting the correct size of piping for the installation. When installing any gas appliance, it is very important to have the proper size gas meter and home pressure regulator installed. Once you have selected the correct size heater for the pool or spa, contact the local utility which supplies the gas and request a field review of the installation and have them install the proper size meter and proper size pressure regulator.
