Checking for Leaks
1. Make 2-3 oz of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2. Make sure control knobs are in the
OFF
position.
3. Spray some solution on the tank valve up to the valve connection. (See diagram to below.)
4. Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles. If no bubbles appear, the connection is secure.
5. If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Go to step 6.
6. Disconnect the regulator from the tank and reconnect. Make sure the connection is tight and secured.
7. Retest with solution.
8. If “growing” bubbles appear do not use or move the LP cylinder. Contact an LP gas supplier or your fire department!
