valve and securely retighten connections, then repeat the leak test.
±
CAUTION: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of 1/2 psig (14” wc).
±
CAUTION: The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2
psig (14” wc).
±
WARNING: Never use an open flame when testing for gas
leaks! Use of an open flame may result in serious bodily
injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage
to property.
