INSTALLATION
Continued
We recommend that you install a sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 4. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and heater. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into log set controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, log set may not run properly.

CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS
WARNING:Testallgaspiping and connections, internal and external to unit, for leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all leaks at once.
Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System
Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.Disconnect log set and its individual equip- ment shutoff valve from gas supply piping system.
2.Cap off open end of gas pipe where equip- ment shutoff valve was connected.
3.Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter.
4.Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
5.Correct all leaks at once.
6.Reconnect log set and equipment shutoff valve to gas supply. Check reconnected fittings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.Close equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 5).
2.Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter.
3.Check all joints from gas meter to equip- ment shutoff valve (see Figure 5). Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4.Correct all leaks at once.
