Test for Gas Leaks
After final gas con-
nection is made,
turn on manual gas
valve and test all
connections in gas supply piping for
gas leaks. Leak testing of the appli-
ance shall be conducted according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Place soap suds on connections.
2. If bubbles appear, a leak is pre-
sent. Shut off gas supply valve.
3. Tighten joint if leak is at factory
fitting.
• If leak is not at factory fitting,
unscrew, apply more joint
compound, and tighten to cor-
rect leak.
4. Retest connection for leak after
tightening or adding joint
compound.
• Retest any connections that
were disturbed.
Connect gas supply to dryer using a
new stainless steel flexible connec-
tor or hard pipe (check local codes)
according to illustration. Test for
leaks and check burner flame after
gas supply is connected. See
Checking Burner Flame section on
back page.
• Dryer must be connected to type
of gas as shown on nameplate
located in the door recess.
For proper operation at altitudes
above 2,500 feet
The natural gas valve spud orifice
size must be reduced to ensure
complete combustion. See table.
• Use pipe joint compound insolu-
ble on LP (propane) Gas, or
Teflon tape, on all pipe threads.
• Purge air and sediment from gas
supply line before connecting it to
the dryer. Before tightening the
connection, purge remaining air
from gas line to dryer until odor of
gas is detected. This step is
required to prevent gas valve
contamination.
