Frequently asked questions about Gas Pressure Test

What pressure is required for a gas line test?
The IFGC typically requires testing at no less than 3 PSI (approximately 6 inches mercury) for a minimum of 10 minutes. Some jurisdictions require higher pressures. Always check local code requirements.
Can I use air or nitrogen for the test?
Yes. Gas line pressure tests are performed with air, nitrogen, or other inert gas — never with fuel gas. The system must hold pressure with no perceptible drop for the required duration.
