Disconnect heater and its individualmanual shutoff valve from gas supplypiping system. Pressures in excess of1/2 psig will damage heater regulator.2. Cap off open end of gas pipe wheremanual shutoff valve was connected.3. Pressurize supply piping system by ei-ther using compressed air or openinggas valve located on or near gas meter.4. Check all joints of gas supply pipingsystem. Apply mixture of liquid soapand water to gas joints. Bubbles form-ing show a leak.5. Correct all leaks at once.6. Reconnect heater and manual shutoffvalve to gas supply. Check reconnectedfittings for leaks.Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than1/2 PSIG1. Close manual shutoff valve (see Fig-ure 14).2. Pressurize supply piping system by ei-ther using compressed air or openinggas valve on or near gas meter.3. Check all joints from gas meter tomanual shutoff valve (see Figure 15).Apply mixture of liquid soap and wa-ter to gas joints. Bubbles forming showa leak.4. Correct all leaks at once.WARNING: Never use an openflame to check for a leak. Apply amixture of liquid soap and waterto all joints. Bubbles forming showa leak. Correct all leaks at once.WARNING: Test all gas pip-ing and connections for leaksafter installing or servicing. Cor-rect all leaks at once.INSTALLATIONContinuedFigure 14 - Manual Shutoff ValveOpenClosedManualShutoff ValveFigure 15 - Checking Gas JointsPressure Testing Heater GasConnections1. Open manual shutoff valve (see Fig-ure 14).2. Open main gas valve located on or neargas meter.3. Make sure control knob of heater is inthe OFF position.4. Check all joints from manual shutoffvalve to thermostat gas valve (thermo-stat-controlled models) or control valve(variably-controlled models) (see Fig-ure 15). Apply mixture of liquid soapand water to gas joints. Bubbles form-ing show a leak.5. Correct all leaks at once.6. Light heater (see Operating Heater,pages 14 and 15 [Thermostat-Con-trolled Models] or pages 15 and 16[Variable Manually-Controlled Mod-els]). Check all other internal joints forleaks.7. Turn off heater (see To Turn Off Gas toAppliance, page 15 [Thermostat-Con-trolled Models] or page 16 [VariableManually-Controlled Models]).Gas MeterManualShutoffValveThermostat Gas Valve orControl Valve LocationCHECKING GASCONNECTIONS
