BURNERS
Clean main burners and air louvers of dust, lint and
debris. Keep heater area clear and free from com-
bustibles and flammable liquids. Do not obstruct the flow
of combustion and ventilating air. Make visual check of
burner and pilot flame. Yellow flame indicates clogging of
air openings. Lifting or blowing flame indicates excess
high gas pressure. Low flame indicates low gas pressure.
