The furnace and its gas control must be disconnected from
gas supply piping system at ground joint union during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psi (14 inches W.C.).
The furnace must be isolated from gas supply piping
system by turning off equipment shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures equal to or
less than 1/2 psi (14 inches W.C.).
WARNING: When test pressure is above 1/2 psi
(14 inches W.C.), completely disconnect furnace and gas
control from gas supply line. Failure to isolate furnace and
gas control from test pressure could damage them, causing
gas to leak, resulting in fire or explosion.
Use a commercial soap solution made to detect leaks and
check all gas piping connections. Bubbles indicate gas
leakage. Seal all leaks before proceeding.
