This focused study guide delivers a clear, structured overview of journeyman-level gasfitting concepts for both natural gas and liquefied petroleum systems. It emphasizes how fuel gas systems are installed, controlled, and verified in real-world conditions, using code-driven explanations that reflect how gasfitters actually work in the field. The content is organized to build understanding from foundational principles through practical application.

Coverage includes gas piping materials, aboveground and underground installation practices, transition points, and system layout considerations. Core gas flow behavior, pressure relationships, and demand concepts are explained in plain language to support accurate pipe sizing and stable system performance. Both natural gas and LP gas vapor systems are addressed, with attention to their differences in pressure, energy content, and operating behavior.

The guide also explores LP gas storage tanks, placement principles, vaporization behavior, and cold-weather performance factors that influence system reliability. Regulators, shutoff valves, excess flow devices, and appliance connections are covered to show how pressure control and flow management work together to support safe operation. Each topic remains anchored to installation logic rather than abstract theory.

Testing, verification, and final system readiness are addressed as integrated parts of safe gasfitting practice. The final chapters explain how systems are evaluated before being placed into service and how installation quality affects long-term safety and performance. If you’ve already invested time and money into preparing, don’t leave success to chance. This quick, focused review is here to help you pass the first time.
