INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pat-
terns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 34 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 35 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern.
The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the ther-
mocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to
cool. When the thermocouple cools, the fireplace
will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in
Figure 35
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap
-
pliance, page 20 or 22, depending on your
model.)
• see Troubleshooting
, page 27
Note: The correct pilot flame on natural gas units
will have a slight curve, but flame should be blue
and have no yellow or orange color.
MAIN BURNER
Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with the
heater running. All slotted burner flame holes should
be open with yellow flame present. All round burner
flame holes should be open with a small blue flame
present. Some burner flame holes may become
blocked by debris or rust, with no flame present. If
so, turn off heater and let cool. Remove blockage.
Blocked burner flame holes may create soot.
FRONT BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 36 shows correct front burner flame pat-
tern. Figure 37 shows incorrect front burner flame
pattern. The incorrect burner flame pattern shows
yellow tipping at top of blue flame.
If front burner flame pattern is incorrect, as
shown in Figure 37
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap
-
pliance, page 20 or 22, depending on your
model.)
