LEAK TESTING & ADJUSTMENT

GAS SUPPLY

The local gas authority or supplier should be consulted at the installation planning stage in order to

establish the availability of an adequate supply of gas (NG or LP). If it is a new installation, have the

gas authorities or supplier check the meter size and piping to assure that the unit is supplied with the

necessary amount of gas supply and pressure to operate the unit(s).

Gas connections should ONLY be made by a qualified plumber, or your professional appliance service

technician.

All fixed (non-mobile) appliances must be fitted with an accessible upstream gas shutoff valve as a

means of isolating the appliance for emergency shut off and for servicing. This valve was described in

the appliance Installation Manual.

Make certain new piping and connections have been made in a clean manner and have been purged

so that piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog regulators, valves, orifices, or burners.

LEAK TESTING TOP BURNERS

At this point, all conversion components should be installed and any hoses removed previously have

been returned and tightened. Before replacing the various sheetmetal parts, a complete leak check

must be performed on all gas-carrying components.

Begin by temporarily supporting the

single-flow center burner (if equipped)

with a small block of wood as shown

below.

Also temporarily return all the burner

rings and caps to the other burners.
