compound and connect to the gas supply. An inlet nipple complete with pressure test
point nipple is factory fitted to the gas control valve to avoid possible damage.
Where the water heater(s) is(are) installed in a boiler house or purpose built
compartment, a manually operated valve for the boiler house must be fitted in
accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. The valve must
be easily identified and readily accessible.
After installation, the system should be pressure tested for soundness and purged in
accordance with BS 6891 or IM/2 and IM/5 as appropriate.
