Test for Gas Leaks

Follow these instructions to leak test the 
appliance:
Use a brush and liquid detergent to test all 
gas connections for leaks. Bubbles around 
connections indicate a leak. If a leak 
appears, shut off the gas valve controls and 
adjust the connections. Then check the 
connections again. 
Remove all the detergent product from the 
appliance. Replace the parts on the burner 
and turn the knobs on the gas tap valves.

NEVER TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH A 
MATCH OR OTHER FLAMES.
Check the appearance of the flames

•  Yellow flames: Further adjustment is 

required.

•  Yellow tips on outer cones: Normal for 

LPG Gas.

•  Soft blue flames: Normal for Natural 

Gas.

•  Orange flames: Can be normal if certain 

types of humidifiers are used in the 
home. Flames should return to blue 
without the humidifier running.

If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, 
verify that the regulator is set for the correct 
fuel. Retest after adjustment. 

Some yellow streaking is normal during the 
initial startup. Allow the appliance to 
operate for 4–5 minutes and reevaluate 
before making adjustments.

Shut-off valve

The supply line must be fitted with an 
approved shut-off valve. This valve should 
be located in the same room as the 
appliance and should be in a location 
where it can be easily opened and closed. 
Do not block access to the shut-off valve. 
The valve is necessary for turning the gas to 
the appliance on or off.

A

 - To appliance

B

 - Shutoff valve “open” position

C

 - Gas Supply Line

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD
Use a soapy solution 
to check that it is 
leak-tight. Never 
test for gas leaks 
with a match or 
other flames. Failure 
to follow this 
instruction can result 
in loss of life or fire.
