CHECK FOR LEAKS
Be sure to check all your gas pipes for leaks before lighting your
water heater. Use a soapy water solution, not a match or open
flame. Check the factory gas fittings after pilot is lit and gas con-
trol knob is still in "PILOT" position. Then, check the fittings
when the main burner is turned "ON". Use a soapy water solu-
tion for this, too.
