How to Leak Test Your Appliance
!
Mix a solution of liquid soap and water in a small container. 50% soap and 50% water.
!
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on. For LP gas appliances make sure that the valve on
the gas cylinder is turned on.
!
Ensure that the gas control valve on the appliance is in the “OFF” position.
!
Use a spray bottle or a small brush and liberally apply the solution to the gas line and to each
connection.
!
If bubbles form this means that there is a leak is present.
!
Tighten any connections that may be loose and leak test again.
!
If no more leaks are found use the appliance.
!
If leaks persist and cannot be stopped turn off the gas supply and contact your distributor or local
gas service technician for assistance.
!
To check for leaks on the hose, soak cloth with soap and water solution. Rub gas line hose
from end to end. If bubbles appear, identify leak and replace hose before next use.
!
WARNING: Do not use an open flame to test for gas leaks.
