We recommend  that  you  install  a  sediment 
trap  in  supply  line  as  shown  in  Figure  4. 
Locate sediment trap where it is within reach 
for cleaning. Install in piping system between 
fuel  supply  and  heater.  Locate  sediment 
trap  where  trapped  matter  is  not  likely  to 
freeze. A sediment  trap  traps  moisture  and 
contaminants.  This  keeps  them  from  going 
into log  set  controls. If  sediment  trap  is not 
installed  or  is  installed  wrong,  log  set  may 
not run properly.

PRESSURE TESTING GAS SUPPLY 
PIPING SYSTEM
1.  Disconnect log set and its individual equip-
ment shutoff valve from gas supply piping 
system. 
2.  Cap off open end of gas pipe where equip-
ment shutoff valve was connected.
3.  Pressurize supply piping system by either 
using compressed air or opening main gas 
valve located on or near gas meter.
4.  Check all joints of gas supply piping system. 
Apply noncorrosive leak detection uid to 
gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
5.  Correct all leaks at once.
6.  Reconnect log set and equipment shutoff 
valve to gas supply. Check reconnected 
ttings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 
1.  Close  equipment  shutoff  valve  (see 
Figure 5).
2.  Pressurize supply piping system by either 
using compressed air or opening main gas 
valve located on or near gas meter.
3.  Check all joints from gas meter to equip-
ment shutoff valve (see Figure 5). Apply 
noncorrosive  leak  detection  uid  to  gas 
joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4.  Correct all leaks at once.
