Pressure Test Gas Piping (Gas Units)
When pressure testing gas lines, the gas valve must
be disconnected and isolated. Gas valves can be
damaged if subjected to more than 0.5 psig (3.48kPa).
NOTE-Codes may require that manual main shut-off
valve and union (furnished by installer) be installed in gas
line external to unit. Union must be of the ground joint
type.
After all connections have been made, check all piping
connections for gas leaks. Also check existing unit gas
connections up to the gas valve; loosening may occur
during installation. Use a leak detection solution or other
preferred means. Do not use matches candles or other
sources of ignition to check for gas leaks.
CAUTION
Some soaps used for leak detection are corrosive
to certain metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly
after leak test has been completed. Do not use
matches, candles, flame or othe sources of ignition
to check for gas leaks.
WARNING
Danger of explosion. Can cause injury
or product or property damage. Do not
use matches, candles, flame or other
sources of ignition to check for leaks.
NOTE-In case emergency shut down is required, turn off
the main manual shut-off valve and disconnect main
power to unit. These devices should be properly labeled
by the installer.
