Pressure Testing Gas Supply
Piping System
Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG
(3.5 kPa)
1. Disconnect appliance with its appliance
main gas valve (control valve) and equip-
ment shutoff valve from gas supply pip-
ing system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
will damage heater regulator.
2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where
equipment shutoff valve was connected.
3. Pressurize supply piping system by
either using compressed air or open-
ing main gas valve located on or near
gas meter.

Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than
1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1. Close equipment shutoff valve (see Fig-
ure 21).
2. Pressurize supply piping system by
either using compressed air or open-
ing main gas valve located on or near
gas meter.
3. Check all joints from gas meter to
equipment shutoff valve (see Figure

gas meter.
3. Make sure control knob of heater is in
the OFF position.
4. Check all joints from equipment shutoff
valve to thermostat gas valve (see Fig-
ure 22). Apply mixture of liquid soap
and water to gas joints. Bubbles form-
ing show a leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Light heater (see Operating Heater,
pages 14 and 15). Check all other in-
