LEAK TESTING THE REGULATOR, VALVES, HOSES,
AND CONNECTIONS
1. Ensure the LP cylinder valve and burners are
"OFF".
2. Ensure the LP cylinder is connected to the
regulator.
3. Mix up a solution of 50% water and 50% liquid
dish soap. Do not use any household cleaner
solution.
4. Open the LP tank valve by turning the hand wheel
counterclockwise. If you hear a rushing sound,
turn the gas off immediately. In that case, there
could be a leak at the connection. Reconnect the
cylinder to the regulator.
5. Spray or brush on the solution covering the
following areas: cylinder welds, regulator and
cylinder connection, gas hose connection to the
regulator, gas hose, the gas hose connection to the
gas manifold assembly, and the valve connections
to the gas manifold pipe.
6. Growing bubbles on any of the parts and
connections listed above indicate a gas leak.
Immediately shut off the LP tank valve by turning
the valve clockwise. Retighten the connections or
order replacement parts as needed. Continue to
test as necessary until no leaks are detected.
7. Close the LP tank valve after testing by turning
the hand wheel clockwise.
