Performance test

A performance test must be carried out every time a cylinder is changed and at least
every 6 months (if the appliance has been out of service).
Should faults be detected during performance testing or operation, the TESCOM EUROPE

or an authorised specialist dealer to have the fault rectified.
A complete performance test includes:
• A visual inspection for mechanical damage
•

Checking the system for leaks
