Before Test Run
Only perform test run after you have
completed the following steps:
● Electrical Safety Checks – Confirm that
the unit's electrical system is safe and
operating properly
● Gas Leak Checks – Check all flare nut
connections and confirm that the system
is not leaking
● Confirm that gas and liquid (high and low
pressure) valves are fully open

After installation, confirm that all electrical
wiring is installed in accordance with local
and national regulations, and according to
