INSPECTING HEATER
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame
pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 29 shows a correct pilot ame pattern.
Figure 30 shows an incorrect pilot ame pat-
tern. The incorrect pilot ame is not touching
the thermocouple. This will cause the thermo-
couple to cool. When the thermocouple cools,
the heater will shut down.
If pilot ame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 30
• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 16)
• see Troubleshooting, page 22
Note: The pilot ame on natural gas units will
have a slight curve, but ame should be blue
and have no yellow or orange color.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 31 shows the burners in the ON and
OFF positions. Burners will come on and go off
when the remote control is set in the manual
on mode or thermostat mode.
Figure 32 shows a correct burner ame pat-
tern. Figure 33 shows an incorrect burner
ame pattern.
If burner ame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 33
• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 16)
• see Troubleshooting, page 22

OPERATING
BLOWER
This heater has a thermostatic blower that will
automatically turn ON or OFF.
Note: Your heater and thermostat blower will
not turn on and off at the same time. The
heater may run for several minutes before the
blower turns on. After the heater modulates to
the pilot position, the blower will continue to
run. The blower will shut off after the heater
cabinet temperature decreases.
Note: It is safe to operate heater with blower
turned off. However, the blower helps distrib-
ute heated air from the heater.
