Leak Check
Leak Testing: This must be done before initial use, annually, and whenever any gas
Components are replaced or serviced. Do not smoke while performing this test, and remove
all sources of ignition. See Leak Testing Diagram for areas to check. Turn all burner controls
to the off position. Turn gas supply valve on.
Brush a half- and-half solution of liquid soap and water onto all joints and connections of
the regulator, hose, manifolds and valves.
Bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Either tighten the loose joint or have the part replaced with
one recommended by the Customer Care department and have the patio heater inspected
by a certified gas installer.
Warning
A leak test must be performed annually and each time a cylinder is hooked up or if a
part of the gas system is replaced.
Warning
Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be certain no sparks or open flames
are in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in a fire or
explosion, damage to property, serious bodily injury,
or death.
