LEAK TEST
1. Make 2-3oz of test soluon: One part dish soap and three parts water.
2. Apply several drops of soluon where hose aaches to the regulator.
3. Apply several drops of soluon where the regulator connects to the cylinder.
4. Make sure the heater valves are o.
5. Turn the cylinder valve on.
IF BUBBLES APPEAR AT ANY CONNECTION, THERE IS A LEAK
A minimum supply pressure of .5PSI is required for the purpose of input adjustment of propane gas.
Storage of an appliance indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from
the appliance. A cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well venlated area out of reach of children. A
disconnected cylinder must have dust caps ghtly installed and must not be stored in an enclosed area
out of children’s reach.
The minimum permissible gas supply pressure of 11 W.C. is required for hose adjustment. The minimum
hourly of 17,500BTU is required input rang. The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the
appliance must be used.
1. Turn cylinder o.
2. Tighten the hose/regulator connecon and perform another leak test. If bubbles connue to appear,
call customer service.
3. If a leak is detected at the regulator/cylinder valve connecon, disconnect then reconnect and perform
another leak test. If you connue to see bubbles aer several aempts, the cylinder valve is defecve.
Contact customer service for a replacement.
4. If no bubbles appear at any connecon, the connecons are secure.
NOTE: Whenever gas connecons are loosened pr removed, you must perform a leak test.
