CHECKING FOR LEAKS

After all connections are made, check all connections and fittings on the LP gas tank valve,
gas hose and regulator for leaks with a water and soap solution.
To prevent fire or explosion while testing for a leak:
• Always perform a leak test prior to lighting the fire pit.
• Do not smoke while testing for a leak.
• Always perform leak tests outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not use any source of flame while testing for leaks.
• Do not use the fire pit until any and all leaks are corrected.
• If you are unable to correct a leak, disconnect the propane supply and call a gas appliance
service dealer.

LEAK CHECK

• Perform all leak tests outdoors.
• Extinguish all open flames.
• NEVER leak test when smoking.
• Do not use the fire pit until all connections have been leak tested and do not leak.

connection
1. Make 2-3 oz. of leak check solution (one part liquid dishwashing detergent and three parts water).

3. Make sure cylinder valve and control valve are OFF.
4. Apply several drops of solution where hose attaches to regulator.
5. Apply several drops of solution where regulator connects to cylinder.
6. Turn cylinder valve ON.
If bubbles appear at any connection, there is a leak.
1. Turn cylinder valve OFF.
2. If leak is at hose/regulator connection: tighten connection and perform another leak test. If bubbles
continue appearing, the hose should be returned to the place of purchase.

check. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, cylinder valve is defective and should
be returned to cylinder's place of purchase.
