Before completing commissioning, maintenance, conversion, and repair work, all
gas-conducting components – from the manual shut-off valve to the burner jet – must
be checked for leaks.
Particular attention must be paid to the measuring stubs on the gas valve. Checks must
be performed when the burner is both switched on and switched off.
Installing thermal shut-off equipment on site is recommended.
If gas-heated appliances are accessible to anyone, it is also necessary to check whether
a gas flow monitor needs to be used.
