Using It on the Job

1. Isolate Power & Gas: Before starting, always switch off electrical power to the heater at the breaker and turn off the main gas supply valve. Lock out if possible.
2. Ventilation & PPE: Ensure adequate ventilation in the work area. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves.
3. Depressurise System: Carefully release any residual gas pressure in the line before disconnecting the old valve.
4. Disconnect & Remove: Disconnect all electrical connections and gas lines from the existing valve. Note their positions for reassembly.
5. Install New Valve: Fit the new White Rodgers 36G22-210 valve, ensuring all connections are properly aligned and sealed using approved thread sealant suitable for gas. Torque connections to manufacturer specifications.
6. Leak Check: After re-establishing gas supply, thoroughly check all connections for leaks using a suitable gas leak detection fluid or electronic sniffer before restoring electrical power and test firing the unit.
7. Test Operation: Run through the heater's operating cycle to confirm the new valve functions correctly, ensuring proper ignition and flame sensing.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Installation and servicing of gas appliances must only be carried out by a licensed gas fitter in accordance with Australian Standards and local regulations.
• Always isolate both gas and electrical supplies before commencing any work on the heating unit.
• Only use this valve for the specified Braemar models and compatible White Rodgers/Seeley systems. Do not adapt for other applications.
• Thoroughly leak check all gas connections after installation before operating the heater.

When you're putting in a new gas valve, don't skimp on the thread sealant. A quality gas-rated sealant applied correctly is your first line of defence against leaks. Always follow up with a proper leak test – it’s non-negotiable.
