Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution applied with a brush no larger than 1” (25mm). Never apply soap and water solution with a spray bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.
The fireplace valve must not be sub- jected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or flex connector use only ap- proved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 6) See the gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.
