Gas Pressure Testing
Important: This water heater and its gas connection must 
be leak tested before placing the appliance in operation.  
If the code requires the gas lines to be tested at       
a pressure of 14” W.C. or greater, the water heater    
and its manual shut-off valve must be disconnected  
from the gas supply piping system and the line        
capped.
If the gas lines are to be tested at a pressure less     
than 
14” W.C., the water heater must be isolated     
from the gas supply piping system by closing its       
manual shut-off valve.
Nationally listed/recognized fuel gas and carbon 
monoxide(CO) detectors are recommended in 
all applications and should be installed using the 
manufacturer’s instructions and local codes, rules, or 
regulations.
Note: Air may be present in the gas lines and could prevent 
the burner from lighting on initial start-up. The gas lines 
should be purged of air by a qualified service technician 
after installation of the gas piping system.
