2.8GAS LEAK TEST

Prior to turning the gas supply on, be sure the gas valve knob on the gas control valve is in the OFF position.

After the piping and fittings have been installed, check for gas leaks.A simple checking method is to turn on the gas and brush all connections with a soap solution. If bubbles occur, it indicates escaping gas. In this event, the piping connection must be redone.

To avoid fire or explosion, never use a lighted match or open flame to test for gas leaks. Ignited gas could result in severe personal injury and/or property damage.
