The below diagram is intended to show what a leaking connection would look like. These two locations are not
the only points to check nor the only potential areas for a gas leak to be present.
Leak Testing
▪
All gas piping and connections must be tested for leaks after installation or service along with before
each use. This includes all valves, pipe connections, joints, lines and every point from the gas source
to the burners.
All leaks must be corrected immediately. Remember-before exchanging an empty bottle for a new one; make sure all
control valves are in the “off” position. This can create a low flow of gas through the grill. This would require the tank to be
disconnected from the regulator, and then reconnected to reset the regulator.
Open the valve (shut-off or ‘ON’ LP tank). Test for leaks by applying liquid soap solution to all joints. Bubbles forming
indicate gas leak.

connections, joints, lines and every point from the gas source to the burners.
