OPENING CONTROL

COMPARTMENT DOOR

The millivolt control valve has a 3/8"
(10 mm) NPT thread inlet port. The electronic
control valve has a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT thread
inlet port and is fitted with a 1/2" x 3/8" (13 mm
x 10 mm) NPT fitting.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate
tools and sealing compounds (ensure pro-
pane resistant compounds are used in
propane applications).

Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks,
using a gas leak test solution (also referred to
as bubble leak solution).

Note: Using a soapy water solution (50% dish
soap, 50% water) is an effective leak test
solution but it is not recommended, because
the soap residue that is left on the pipes/
fittings can result in corrosion over time. Never
use an open flame to check for leaks.

A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting
instructions label in the control compartment
or in the Homeowner's Care and Operation
Instructions).

B. Brush all joints and connections with the
gas leak test solution to check for leaks. If
bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected,
turn the gas control knob to the “OFF” posi-
tion. Either tighten or refasten the leaking
connection and retest as described above.

C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
be sure to rinse off the leak testing solution.

D. When the gas lines are tested and leak free,
observe the individual tongues of flame on the
burner. Make sure all ports are open and
producing flame evenly across the burner. If
any ports are blocked, or partially blocked,
clean out the ports.

The gas control valve is located in the lower
control compartment. To access the valve
open the lower control compartment door
(Figure 48).

Make gas line connections. All codes require a
shut-off valve mounted in the supply line.

Fig-

ure 47 illustrates two methods for connecting
the gas supply. The flex-line method is accept-
able in the U.S., however, Canadian require-
ments vary depending on locality. Installation
must be in compliance with local codes.

These appliances are equipped with a gas flex
line for use (where permitted) in connecting the
unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is provided
to aid in attaching the direct vent appliance to
the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be
used where local codes permit. See

Figure 47

for flex line description. The flex line is rated for
both natural and propane gas. A manual shut off
valve is also provided with the flex line.
