The gas safety device shall be at the lower end. Never hang the heater horizontally while in that case the flue gases will influence a proper combustion.
  • Page 7 Store the gas cylinders always on ground level in a well-ventilated place, preferably outside the room where the heater is. In case the gas cylinder is placed in a cylinder housing, or cover, make sure that there is enough ventilation as requested by the applicable regulations or standards. Never obstruct these ventilation holes.
  • Page 8 Soundness check Before using a new built gas system, first make sure that the installer made a careful and extensive check for gas leakage. After executing a pressure drop test to determine that there are not large leaks, check every connection with soapy water or gas detection liquid with all gas valves open and with maximum gas pressure.
