The appliance and its individual shut-off valve shall be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/ 2 pound per square inch (3.5 kPa). It shall be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut- off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 pound per square inch (3.5 kPa).

Connecting the gas piping to the gas control valve of the water heater can be accomplished by either of the two methods shown in Figures 19 and 20.

Sediment Traps

A sediment trap shall be installed as close to the inlet of the water heater as practical at the time of water heater installation. The sediment trap shall be either a tee fitting with a capped nipple in the bottom outlet or other device recognized as an effective sediment trap. If a tee fitting is used, it shall be installed in conformance with one of the methods of installation, shown in Figures 19 and 20.

Contaminants in the gas lines may cause improper operation of the gas control valve that may result in fire or explosion. Before attaching the gas line be sure that all gas pipe is clean on the inside. To trap any dirt or foreign material in the gas supply line, a drip leg (sometimes called a sediment trap) must be incorporated in the piping. The drip leg must be readily accessible. Install in accordance with the Gas Piping section. Refer to the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
