| | 38KW AND 48KW. FBC 107.2.1 |
| | |
| | 2) SUBMIT AN ISOMETRIC DRAWING THAT CLEARLY SHOWS THE |
| | LENGTH OF ALL CUT SECTIONS OF PIPE PER 2017 FBC-FUEL |
| | GAS, SECS. 402.4.1, 402.4.2. OR 2014 FBC-RES SEC. G2413 |
| | |

| | EXISTING GAS METER. THE BTU LOAD OF THE EXISTING GAS |
| | SYSTEM MUST BE ADDED INTO THE TOTAL BTU LOAD ON THE |
| | SYSTEM TO ENSURE THE EXISTING SYSTEM IS PROPERLY SIZED. |
| | IF UNDERSIZED, THE EXISTING SYSTEM MUST BE REDONE TO |
| | ENSURE A SAFE OPERATING SYSTEM. SUBMIT A GAS PIPING |
| | RISER DIAGRAM THAT SHOWS THE TYPE OF EXISTING |
| | APPLIANCE, THE BTU LOAD OF EACH APPLIANCE, THE PIPE |
| | SIZE AND TYPE OF PIPE TO EACH APPLIANCE, AND THE |
| | DISTANCE OF THE LONGEST LENGTH OF PIPING FROM THE POINT |
| | OF DELIVERY TO THE MOST REMOTE OUTLET AND THE LOAD OF |
| | THE SECTION. NOTE: IF THE EXISTING SYSTEM IS LESS THAN |
| | A 2 PSI SYSTEM AND THE SYSTEM PRESSURE IS INCREASED TO |
| | 2 PSI, A LINE PRESSURE REGULATOR IS REQUIRED AT ALL THE |
| | EXISTING APPLIANCES. FGC SECS. 401.4, 401.8, 402.1, |
| | 402.2, 402.3 OR FBCR SECS.G2412.4, G2412.8, G2413.1, |
| | G2413.2, G2413.3 |
| | |
| | 5) SUBMIT MANUFACTURER?S SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE |
| | PRESSURE REGULATORS. REGULATORS INSTALLED ON THE |
| | EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING SHALL BE APPROVED FOR OUTDOOR |
| | INSTALLATION. 2017 FGC SEC.410.1. |
| | |
| | 6) SHOW THE LOCATION OF ALL MP (STEP-DOWN) REGULATORS. |

| | FBC-RESIDENTIAL SEC. G 2420.4. I |
| | |
| | 7) SUBMIT TWO COPIES OF THE APPLICABLE SIZING TABLES |
| | USED TO SIZE THE GAS SYSTEM OR PLACE A NOTE ON THE |
| | PLANS/DRAWINGS SPECIFYING WHICH SIZING TABLE(S) FROM |
| | THE GAS CODE OR OTHER STANDARD THAT WERE USED IN THE |
| | DESIGN OF THIS GAS SYSTEM. REFER TO THE 2017 FBC-FUEL |
| | GAS SECS. 401.4, 401.8 THRU 402.6.1 AND TABLES 402.4 |
| | (1) THRU 402.4 (37) OR 2014 FBC-RES. SEC. G2412.4, |
| | G2412.8, G2413.1, G2413.2, & G2413.3. |
| | |
| | 8) SHOW THE DISTANCE FROM THE 2 PSI REGULATOR TO THE |
| | APPLIANCE. COMPLY WITH 2017 FBC-FUEL GAS TABLE 402.4 |
| | (28) FOR THE PROPER PIPE SIZE AND BTU LOAD |
| | |
| | 9) REVISE YOUR FLAT DRAWING TO SHOW THE REQUIRED |
| | SEDIMENT TRAP. 2017 FBC-FUEL GAS 408.4. |
