Use the new best practices for fuel
gas piping and appliances!The
National Fuel Gas Code is essential
for designers, installers, AHJ's, and system
maintainers responsible for ensuring fuel
gas safety on consumers' premises. Revised
to reflect current techniques and products
available today, this edition also includes
clarified text that eliminates confusion.
Changes and improvements
impacting your work:
- New data helps you properly size
longer installations. Dozens of pipe
sizing tables have been extended with
information for all piping up to 2,000
feet.
- A first-time requirement addresses
support of rooftop piping to protect
against wind damage.
- Other revisions make the Code
consistent with the 2005 National
Electrical Code® , the 2003
Uniform Plumbing Code™ and other
related documents.
Install and operate gas systems
for better public safety and consumer
satisfaction.
Annexes provide "how-to" advice about
sizing and capacities of gas piping, and
sizing of venting systems serving
appliances. You'll also find a suggested
method of checking for leakage as well as
suggested emergency procedures for gas
leaks. More than 800 diagrams and graphics
clarify concepts.
Take fuel gas hazards seriously and
reduce risks. Work with the new basis for
fuel gas safety nationwide and around the
globe: the 2006 NFPA 54: National Fuel
Gas Code.
It's your indispensable resource on the
job! (Softbound, Approx. 170 pp., 2006)
