Locate the blower switch by opening lower
louver on replace. Blower switch is located at
lower left inside louver door.
This thermostat-controlled blower has a vari-
able speed control with an ON/OFF switch. The
blower will start when the thermostat senses a
sufcient increase in rebox temperature.
Note: It is safe to operate replace with blower
turned off. However, the blower helps distribute
heated air from the replace.
Note: Periodically check the louvers of the
rebox and remove any dust, dirt or other
obstructions.
INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame pat-
terns often.

Figure 29 shows a correct pilot ame pattern. Figure
30 shows an incorrect pilot ame pattern. The incor-
rect pilot ame is not touching the thermocouple.
This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the
thermocouple cools, the replace will shut down.
If pilot ame pattern is incorrect, as shown in
Figure 30
turn replace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance, page 18)
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.
