Making Gas Connection for the Suburban 51117A Igniton Gas Water Heater
Connect a 3/8' gas supply line to the 3/8 flare fitting at the gas valve located in the control housing. When making the gas connection, hold the gas fitting on the valve with a wrench when tightening the flare nut. Failure to hold fitting secure could result in a gas leak due to fitting being damaged. Note: It will be necessary to remove the grommet from the control housing, make the gas connection at the valve, then reinstall grommet.
