3. Pressurize supply piping system by either
opening propane/LP supply tank valve
for propane/LP gas or opening main gas
valve located on or near gas meter for
natural gas or using compressed air.
4. Check all joints of gas supply piping system.
Apply a noncorrosive leak detection fluid to
all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Reconnect heater and equipment shutoff
valve to gas supply. Check reconnected
fittings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than
1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1. Close equipment shutoff valve (see
Figure 18).
2. Pressurize supply piping system by either
opening propane/LP supply tank valve
for propane/LP gas or opening main gas
valve located on or near gas meter for
natural gas or using compressed air.
3. Check all joints from gas meter for natural
gas (see Figure 19) or propane/LP supply
tank for propane/LP gas, to equipment
shutoff valve (see Figure 20). Apply a

PRESSURE TESTING HEATER GAS
CONNECTIONS
1. Open equipment shutoff valve (see
Figure 18).
2. For natural gas open main gas valve
located on or near gas meter. For pro
-
pane/LP gas open propane/LP supply
tank valve.
3. Make sure control knob of heater is in the
OFF position.
4. Check all joints from equipment shutoff
valve to thermostat gas valve (see Figure
19 or 20). Apply a noncorrosive leak de
-
tection fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming
show a leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Light heater (see
Operating Heater
, page
15). Check all other internal joints for leaks.
7. Turn off heater (see
To Turn Off Gas to
Appliance
, page 16).
8. Replace front panel.
CONNECTING TO ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY
WARNING: Fan accessory
must be grounded. Fan comes
with a three-prong, grounding
plug as shown in Figure 21, page
15. The plug is your protection
against electrical shock. Plug
it into a standard, three-hole,
grounded, outlet. If cord needs
replacing, use only a cord with a
three-prong, grounding plug.
CAUTION: Label all wires
prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and danger
-
ous operation (see page 27).
ExTENSION CORD
Use extension cord if needed. The cord must
have a three-prong, grounding plug and a
three-hole receptacle. Make sure cord is in
good shape. It must be heavy enough to carry
the current needed. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage. This will result
in loss of power and overheating. Use a No.
16 AWG cord for lengths less than 50 feet
(15.24 m).
