TEST PROCEDURE
1. Visually inspect all hoses before each use. If there is
excessive abrasion, wear, or cutting, replace the
hoses before further use. Replace defective hoses
only with those specified
by the manufacturer.
2. Be sure that the valve
is in the off position.
3. Be sure that the natural
gas delivery hose is correctly
and securely connected.
4. Using a small paint brush, spread
a thin coating of the soap/water
solution onto the following
connections:
Residential Gas Supply
Natural Gas Supply Hose
Gas Supply Hose - Valve Inlet
Valve Outlet - Gas Delivery Hose
5. If the soap/water solution bubbles
there is a leak. Immediately
disconnect the gas supply and check
connections. Reconnect the gas
supply and repeat the test.

to bubble, remove the gas supply
hose and replace the defective parts
