Join us for NFI Gas Review!
Considerable knowledge and expertise are called for in designing, installing, and servicing gas hearth systems, not only because of advances in technology, but also because of the nature of fuel gases. We begin with the foundation for all work with gas hearth systems: gas characteristics and combustion basics. We look next at methods and requirements for fuel delivery and then at the fundamentals of gas piping systems.
Sellers, installers, and service technicians of gas hearth appliances assume certain moral and legal responsibilities. The moral responsibility is clear. Improper installation or service potentially can lead to fires and other hazards resulting in loss of life and property.
