INSPECTING
BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 32 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 33 shows an incorrect pilot flame
pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple. This will cause the
thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the fireplace will shut down.

Locate the blower switch by opening lower louver on fireplace. Blower switch is
located at lower left inside louver door.
Thermostat-controlled blowers have three settings: ON, OFF, and AUTO. In the ON
position, the blower will operate constantly. In the OFF position, the blower will not
operate. In the AUTO position, the blower will start when the thermostat senses a
sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
Note:
Your gas logs and thermostat blower will not turn on and off at the same time.
The fireplace 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 firebox temperature decreases.
Note:
It is safe to operate fireplace with blower turned off. However, the blower
helps distribute heated air from the fireplace.
Manual blowers on manually-controlled models have an ON and OFF position.
