Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System
Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG
1.Disconnect fireplace and its individual manual shutoff valve from gas supply piping system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig will damage fireplace regulator.
2.Cap off open end of gas pipe where manual shutoff valve was connected.
3.Pressurize supply piping system by ei- ther using compressed air or opening propane/LP supply tank valve.
4.Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles form- ing show a leak.
5.Correct all leaks at once.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG
1.Close manual shutoff valve (see Figure 20).
2.Pressurize supply piping system by ei- ther using compressed air or opening propane/LP supply tank valve.
3.Check all joints from propane/LP sup- ply tank to manual shutoff valve (see Figure 21). Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4.Correct all leaks at once.
Pressure Testing Fireplace Gas Connections
1.Open manual shutoff valve (see Figure 20).
2.Open propane/LP supply tank valve.
3.Make sure control knob of fireplace is in the OFF position.
4.Check all joints from manual shutoff valve to thermostat gas valve (see Fig- ure 19). Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles form- ing show a leak.
5.Correct all leaks at once.
