NOTE: Ambient ame burners produce both a blue and yellow ame. An excessively high yellow
colored ame may be caused by airborne dust, dander, pet hair, etc. Additionally, an excess
amount of Mercaptane in the fuel can result in an orange or yellow colored ame.
The upper third of ame
may be bright yellow when
operated on propane.
When this heater is set for use on propane gas, the upper one third of the ame may be bright yellow.
When this heater is set for use on natural gas, a slight yellow tipping of the ame may occur.
