2.8 GAS 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.
