Pressure Test

It is very important to leak check hoses on a regular basis. Often, this test is conducted while the hose is attached to the fill manifold and under pressure. The best gas to use for a leak check (and most expensive) is helium. Helium works well because the helium molecule is very small. As a result, helium will find a leak better than most other gases. Keep in mind that this can get a little spendy, so other inert gases can be substituted. We do not recommend compressed air or any other gas that could contain impurities.
