Leak testing
General
Although the gas connections of the appliance are leak tested prior packing and shipment, a complete test must
be performed at the installation site.
Before each use, check all the gas connections for leak testing using the procedure listed below. If the smell of
gas is detected at any time, you should immediately stop using and check the entire system for leaks.
Before testing
Make sure all packing material has been removed from the appliance.
Make a solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle, brush or rag to apply
the solution to the fittings.
To test
1. Turn the burner valve OFF.
2. Turn the liquid propane cylinder valve on counter-clockwise to open the valve.
3. Apply the soap solution to all gas fittings. Soap bubbles would appear where a leak is present.
4. If a leak is present, immediately turn the gas supply OFF and tighten leaky fittings.
5. Turn the gas back ON and recheck.
6. Should the gas continue to leak from any of the fittings, turn the gas supply OFF and contact customer service.
