Before turning gas under pressure into piping, all openings from which gas can escape should be closed.
Immediately after turning on gas, the system should be checked for leaks. This can be done by watching
the 1/2 cubic feet test dial and allowing 5 minutes to show any movement, or by soaping each pipe
connection and watching for bubbles. If a leak is found, make the necessary repairs and repeat the
above test. Defective pipes or fittings should be replaced and not repaired. Never use a flame or fire in
any form to locate gas leaks, use a soap solution.
After the piping and meter have been checked completely, purge the system of air. Be sure to relight all
the gas pilots on other appliances.
ELECTRICAL WIRING OF BURNER
Electrical components for the burner are mounted on a subplate which ships with the burner. The wiring
diagram in Figure 13 shows how to wire the burner to the subplate and where to connect line voltage.
The wiring to the utilized outlet must conform with the National Electric Code or the code legally
authorized in the locality where the installation is being made. The burner, when installed, must be
electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70.
