Leak Check
The Purpose of the leak check is to locate the major leaks in the enclosure before performing the door fan test.
Often large holes are located that must then be sealed before the door fan test can begin. Sometimes the smoke
test identifies dampers that are not closing correctly or not at all. If so, that damper must be repaired before the
test can proceed.

9 Rocker switch selects between OFF, Local or
