this is the craziest test ive ever seen no test on #2 shut off valve if its
leaking through it would give a false reading on #1 and #2 check valves and
whats the deal with the water column tube this is bizzar way to test when
your $1500 gauge can give all the proper pressure differentials accross the
check valves if you want i can email you some procecure for 5 valve test
gauge or 3 valve test gauge. but if thats the way canada wants it i guess
thats how you have to do it
Wow alot easier than the way we test in NYC......I'm taking my
certification for RPZA,DCVA and vacuum breaker....just from this video I
think I understand it better now even though it is completely different the
way we do it....I like that clear tube. Nice video...thanks

They test it this way so the trainee get a chance to show that they know
how to use a sight tube rather than using the same gauge for both this and
the RP.
