Checking For Leaks
– To check for leaks, make up a 50/50 solution
of dish soap and water. Apply this solution
to
all gas connections. If bubbles appear,
there
is a leak. If a leak is found, turn off
the gas
supply, and re-connect the leaking
connection. If the leak persists after several
tries, contact
