The maximum total concentric pipe length (
tab. 20) depends on the
installation situation, the appliance type and the number of elbows used.

Testing gas and water connections for leaks
NOTICE
Pressure, control and safety equipment may be damaged by
excessive pressure.
▶ When you carry out a leakage test, make sure that no pressure,
control or safety equipment is installed that cannot be isolated from
the test pressure.
▶ The boiler and its dedicated shutoff valve must be disconnected from
the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 14" W.C. (35 mbar).
Water connections
▶ Open the heating supply and return valves and fill the heating system.
▶ Check all connections for leakage (test pressure: Max. 30 psi (2.07
bar) on the pressure gauge).
Gas line
▶ Close the gas shutoff valve to protect the gas valve from damage.
▶ Check all connections for leakage (test pressure: Max. 60" W.C.
(150 mbar)).
▶ Release pressure.
