(a) Location. Each service-line connection to a main must be located at the top of the main or, if that is not practical, at the side of the main, unless a suitable protective device is installed to minimize the possibility of dust and moisture being carried from the main into the service line.
(b) Compression-type connection to main. Each compression-type service line to main connection must:
(1) Be designed and
installed to effectively sustain the longitudinal pull-out or thrust forces
caused by contraction or expansion of the piping, or by anticipated external or
internal loading; and
(2) If
gaskets are used in connecting the service line to the main connection fitting,
have gaskets that are compatible with the kind of gas in the system.
