LIGHTING
A. This appliance has a pilot which must
be lighted by hand. When lighting the
pilot, follow these instructions exactly.

by hand, don’t try to repair it, call a
qualified service technician or gas
supplier. Force or attempted repair
may result in a fire or explosion.

Piping System
Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG
(3.5 kPa)
1.
Disconnect appliance with its appliance
main gas valve (control valve) and equip-
ment shutoff valve from gas supply pip-
ing system. Pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
will damage heater regulator.
2.
Cap off open end of gas pipe where
equipment shutoff valve was connected.
3.
Pressurize supply piping system by ei-
ther using compressed air or opening
main gas valve located on or near gas
meter.

system. Apply mixture of liquid soap
and water to gas joints. Bubbles form-
ing show a leak.
5.
Correct all leaks at once.
6.
Reconnect heater and equipment
shutoff valve to gas supply. Check re-
connected fittings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2
PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.
Close equipment shutoff valve (see Fig-
ure 13).
2.
Pressurize supply piping system by
either using compressed air or open-
ing main gas valve located on or near
gas meter.
WARNING: Never use an open
flame to check for a leak. Apply a
mixture of liquid soap and water
to all joints. Bubbles forming show
