Testing gas and water connections for leaks
NOTICE: System damage!
Pressure, control and safety equipment may be
damaged by excessive pressure.
▶ When you carry out a leakage test, make sure that no
pressure, control or safety equipment is installed
that cannot be isolated from the test pressure.
▶ The boiler and its dedicated shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 14" W.C. (35 mbar).
Water connections
▶ Open the heating supply and return valves and fill the heating system.
▶ Check all connections for leakage (test pressure: Max. 30 psi (2.07
bar) on the pressure gauge).
Gas line
▶ Close the gas shutoff valve to protect the gas valve from damage.
▶ Check all connections for leakage (test pressure: Max. 60" W.C.
(150 mbar)).
▶ Release pressure.
