Performing leak test and insulation
Before completing the installation (insulating hose and pipes), you must check for gas leakage and when there is no leakage,
you may insulate the pipes and hoses.
Leak test
Use a gas detector to check the connection part of the pipes for gas leakage.

The standard temperature and humidity condition is 30 °C with humidity below 85 %. If the condition is in high humidity,
use one grade thicker.
