Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG
(3.5 kPa)
1. Disconnect appliance with its appliance
main gas valve (control valve) and equip-
ment shutoff valve from gas supply pip-
ing system. Pressures in excess of 1/2
psig will damage heater regulator.
2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where
equipment shutoff valve was connected.
3. Pressurize supply piping system by
either using compressed air or open-
ing main gas valve located on or near
gas meter.

system. Apply noncorrosive leak detec-
tion fluid to gas joints. Bubbles form-
ing show a leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Reconnect heater and equipment
shutoff valve to gas supply. Check re-
connected fittings for leaks.
