Checking for Leaks

IMPORTANT: The heater must be leak tested before any further assembly is done. Use only a noncorrosive leak detection fluid. DO NOT USE FLAME.

Turn control knob to the OFF position. Se- curely connect regulator to propane/LP gas cylinder. Open propane/LP cylinder valve. Apply a noncorrosive leak detection fluid to connections at the manifold and regulator connections. Bubbles forming show a leak.

In case of any leaks, turn off propane/LP cylinder valve, remove manifold, check and clean connection. Reconnect manifold and leak test again.

Upon completion of leak test, and when there is no sign of a leak, turn off propane/LP cylinder valve and disconnect regulator from propane/LP gas cylinder. Remove propane/LP gas cylinder and continue to next step.
