NOTE: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa). For test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa), the appliance must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve.
•
For high altitude installations, consult the local gas distributor or
the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods.
