THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostatic control used on this fireplace differs from standard thermo-
stats. Standard thermostats simply turn on and off the burner. The thermostat
used on this fireplace senses the room temperature. The thermostat adjusts
the amount of gas flow to the burner. This increases or decreases the burner
flame height. At times the room may exceed the set temperature. If so, the
burner will shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room temperature
drops below the set temperature.
The control knob can be set to any heat level between HI and LO.
Note:
The thermostat sensing bulb measures the temperature of air near the
fireplace cabinet. This may not always agree with room temperature (depend-
ing on housing construction, installation location, room size, open air tempera-
tures, etc.). Frequent use of your fireplace will let you determine your own
comfort levels.
