Disconnect heater and its individual manual shutoff valve from gas supplypipe. Pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG will damage heater regulator.2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where manual shutoff valve was connected.3. Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or openingmain gas valve located on or near gas meter.4. Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply mixture of liquid soap andwater to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.5. Correct all leaks at once.Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG1. Close manual shutoff valve (see Figure 8).2. Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or openingmain gas valve located on or near gas meter.3. Check all joints from propane supply tank to manual shutoff valve. Applymixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.4. Correct all leaks at once.Pressure Testing Heater Gas Connections1. Open manual shutoff valve (see Figure 8).2. Open main gas valve located on or near gas meter.3. Make sure control knob of heater is in the OFF position.4. Check all joints from manual shutoff valve to control valve on heater. Applymixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.5. Correct all leaks at once.6. Light heater (see Operating Heater, pages 21 through 23). Check the rest of theinternal joints for leaks.7. Turn off heater (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance,page 23).PO On PositionOff PositionFigure 8 - Manual Shutoff ValveWARNING ICON G 001WARNINGNever use an open flame to check for a leak.
