Indications for propane gas-fired appliances
Make sure that the gas tank has been deaerated before installing the appliance.
For state-of-the-art deaeration of the tank, contact the LPG supplier or a person qualified in compliance with law.
If the tank has not been professionally deaerated, ignition problems could arise.
In that case, contact the supplier of the LPG tank.
