Safe Installation Dos and Don’ts
• DO adhere to all National and Local Plumbing and
Electrical Safety Codes.
• DO turn OFF incoming electrical service switches
when servicing, installing, or repairing equipment.
• DO check that all flare fittings are tight. This check
must be performed with a wrench to ensure a quality
seal.
• DO inspect pressure on regulators before starting up
equipment.
• DO protect eyes when working around refrigerants.
• DO use caution when handling metal surface edges
of all equipment.

• DO NOT exhaust CO

gas (example: syrup pump)
into an enclosed area, including all types of walk-in

cylinder. Secure the
