- Check the regulator setting using a manometer:
- Remove outlet pressure tap plug from gas control and connect pressure gauge.
- Turn gas control knob to ON position
- To obtain an accurate outlet pressure reading, main burner must be cycled on
and off several times to stabilize the pressure regulator.
- Operate heater and read pressure gauge. Adjust pressure regulator if necessary.

- Mount the conversion label on the gas control.
- Mount the new rating label on the heater, (indicating model no., serial no., orifice
size, and identification of the gas to which the appliance is to be converted.)
- Perform gas leak test after completion of installation:
- Never use a match or other flame to test for gas leaks.
- Paint pipe connections upstream of gas control with rich soap and water solution
to check for leaks to all connections and joints and if bubbles appear, leaks have
been detected and must be corrected.
- Never operate the heater with leaking connections.
- Stand clear of main burner while lighting to prevent injury caused from hidden
leaks that could cause flashback in the appliance.
- With burner operating, paint pipe joints (including adapters) and control inlet and
outlet with rich soap and water solution.
- Replace part if gas leak cannot be stopped.
- Refer to the Operating Sequence to place system in operation and observe
through at least one complete cycle to assure all controls are operating properly.
