7 Hangers and supports. All horizontal gas piping must be adequately supported by galvanized or equivalently protected metal straps or hangers at intervals of not more than 4
feet, except where adequate support and protection is provided by structural members. Vertical gas piping in multistory dwelling units must be supported at intervals of not more than 6 feet.
Solid iron-pipe connections must be rigidly anchored to a structural member within 6 inches of the supply connections.
8 i Before appliances are connected, piping systems must stand a pressure of three 0.2 psi gauge for a period of not less than ten minutes without showing any drop in pressure.
Pressure must be measured with a mercury manometer or slope gauge calibrated so as to be read in increments of not greater than one-tenth pound, or an equivalent device. The source of normal operating pressure must be isolated before the pressure tests are made. Before a test is begun, the temperature of the ambient air and of the piping must be approximately the same, and constant air temperature must be maintained throughout the test.
iii Where gas piping between transportable sections must be made on site, the installation instructions must contain provisions for onsite testing for leakage consistent with the provisions in paragraph l8i of this section.
