We are going to supply a thermal energy system like boilers, which is composed of a thermal oil heater and combustion cell, in Ontario. My question is that what is the clearance requirement from nearby gas train piping to this energy system or which standard I can find this specific requirement? I looked at CSA B149 National Gas and Propane Installation Guide in which it only states the clearances from boiler to any COMBUSTIBLE material. Thanks for your help.
