LEAK TEST PROCEDURE
1. Create a soapy solution of 1 part dish soap and
3 parts water.
2. Confirm that all valve control knobs are in the
'OFF' position.
3. Turn on the fuel supply. For Natural Gas, turn
the valve handle 1/4 turn so the handle is in
line with the pipe and gas flow. For LP, turn the
valve knob one complete turn in the counter-
clockwise direction.
4. Apply the soap solution generously with a rag,
paint brush or squirt bottle on every
connection and fitting.
5. If bubbles appear to 'grow' on any of the
connections, then gas is escaping. Turn OFF the
gas supply immedi

FIXING A GAS LEAK:
1. Make sure the main gas supply has been turned
off.
2. Turn 'ON' all valve control knobs to purge the
system of any gas build-up, then turn all valve
control knobs 'OFF'.
3. Wash off the soapy solution and then dry off.
4. Tighten the loose joint or replace any fitting
that may be suspect.
5. If the leak is at the main cylinder valve for LP
applications, do not attempt to repair it. The LP
cylinder needs to be replaced.
6. Repeat the leak test procedure to confirm that
no leaks are present.
