Power Smoker 2 Setup for Plumbing Systems
Setting up your Power Smoker 2 for smoke testing a plumbing
system involves some planning. The most important part of
any smoke testing program is Occupant Notification. This
should never be taken for granted. There will certainly be
people with health concerns and businesses that cannot
have business interrupted. It is natural to panic whenever you
see smoke and occupant awareness will help alleviate that
anxiety. Another major concern is the possible presence of
dangerous sewer gases traveling with the smoke. Occupants
should be made aware that if they see smoke to immediately
vacate the area and notify you of the leak.
Occupant Notification
Occupant Notifications can be delivered in a number of
different ways:
Inter office communications or e-mail
•
PA announcements
•
Personnel Contact
•
All Occupant Notification Announcements need to be timed
so that the occupants do not forget the day you will be
performing this activity. If you let the occupants know in
advance, it is still a wise practice to make an announcement
the day of your tests.
Preparing for Smoke Testing
UNDERSTAND THE FLOOR PLAN
It is important to plan your smoke testing activities carefully.
You will want to prepare a floor plan map of the plumbing to
be tested. This map should identify:
The direction of sewer flow.
•
The size of the pipes.
•
The cleanouts where you will connect the Power
•
Smoker 2.
Rooms that may require special attention.
•
Occupants with health concerns.
•
Any other items of concern should also be noted.
•
SETTING UP THE CREW
One person is all that is required for a smoke testing
program but, a second person can speed up the process
of finding the leak. These people should be trained in the
proper procedures of smoke testing plumbing systems.
There is no room for errors when doing smoke testing.

The Power Smoker 2 generates so much smoke that it
5.
is not necessary to plug roof vents. However, if you are
concerned about smoke emitting from the roof vent,
you can plug the vent without affecting the test.
Prepare the LiquiSmoke Tank.
6.
To relieve pressure from the tank before filling, a.
rotate the small valve to the right slowly until
fully open. Leave relief valve open until all
pressure is relieved. The canister is now safe
to open.
Never open canister without first
releasing pressure.
Put one gallon of LiquiSmoke in the LiquiSmoke
b.
pressure tank
Place pump back into tank and turn clockwise
c.
until tight.
Disengage the pump handle by turning it ¼
d.
turn and pump tank until firm. Do not apply
too much pressure to the pump handle as it will
damage the pump cartridge. Note: Putting more
than one gallon of LiquiSmoke in this container
will cause you to make several trips back to the
Power Smoker 2 to keep the LiquiSmoke under
pressure. By leaving the tank half full, you will
have an adequate amount of pressure to last the
entire test. Warning: The LiquiSmoke pressure
tank is now under pressure and DANGEROUS .
Always wear eye protection when using this
container.
WARNING! Smoke testing can be dangerous. Do not use
in areas where there are volatile gases.
WARNING! Using any liquid product to produce smoke
other than Hurco’s LiquiSmoke can cause damage to the
Power Smoker 2, voiding any warranty. Also, some of
these liquids can start on fire or become an explosion
hazard.
WARNING! Power Smoker 2 is not designed to be use
with zinc chloride smoke bombs. Not only are these
smoke bombs corrosive to the working components of
the Power Smoker 2, they can cause serious damage to
the engine.
