When testing pressure of gas lines, gas valve must be 
disconnected and isolated. See Figure 60. Gas valves 
can be damaged if subjected to pressures greater than 
1/2 psig (3.48 kPa).
 IMPORTANT
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure  to  follow  the  safety  warnings  exactly  could 
result  in  serious  injury,  death,  or  property  damage. 
Never use an open ame to test for gas leaks. Check 
all  connections  using  a  commercially  available  soap 
solution  made  specically  for  leak  detection.  Some 
soaps used  for  leak detection are  corrosive  to certain 
metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after leak test 
has been completed.
