Fire Risk.
Risk of Fire! Risk of Explosion!
Incorrect pressure will damage valve.
• Isolate
gas supply piping BEFORE pressure
testing gas line at test pressures above 1/2
psig.
• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
WARNING
• Optimum appliance performance requires proper input
pressures.
• Gas line sizing requirements will be determined in ANSI
Z223.1 National Fuel Gas Code in the USA and CAN/
CGA B149 in Canada.
• Pressure requirements when in operation are:
