The Procedure for Checking for Gas Leaks:
Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first use, at
the beginning of each season, or every time your LP
gas tank is changed, you must check for gas leaks.
Follow these three steps:
1. Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
2. Make sure that the burner is off and then turn the
gas on at source.
3. Apply the soap solution to all gas connections,
especially to the inlet/manifold pressure tap on the
gas valve after reading the pressure. Bubbles will
appear in the soap solution if the gas connections
are not properly sealed. If you have a gas leak,
tighten gas connections, turn off the gas at the
source, disconnect the fuel line from your appliance,
and call 1-877-539-7436 for repair assistance.
