.  HYDROSTATIC TEST — After the boiler sections 

have been assembled, it is essential that the boiler be 

hydrostatically tested before the canopy, flue cover 

plates, jacket, or piping is installed.
1.  Tankless Heater Installation
  If boiler is ordered with tankless heaters, install 

heaters with the gaskets provided.  Table IV 

on   Page 37 gives the maximum number of heaters 

permissible per assembly and the heater ratings.

2.  Plug all boiler tappings and fill boiler completely 

with cold water.

4.  EXAMINE BOILER CAREFULLY, INSIDE AND 

OUTSIDE, to insure against leaks from cocked 

nipples or through concealed breakage caused in 

shipping and handling.  This precaution is for your 

protection and will simplify handling of necessary 

replacements and adjustment claims.

5.  After making certain that there are no leaks, drain 

boiler and remove plugs for boiler trim and other 

connections.

3.  All completed boilers must satisfactorily pass the 

prescribed hydrostatic test.
a.  STEAM BOILERS:  The assembled boiler must 

be subjected to a hydrostatic test of  45 psig to 55 

psig.

b.  HOT WATER BOILERS:  The assembled boiler 

must be subjected to a hydrostatic test of not less 

than 1½ times the maximum allowable working 

pressure (MAWP).
