OPERATION

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame patterns often.

PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure 20 shows a correct pilot ame pattern. Figure 21 shows an incorrect pilot ame pattern. The

incorrect 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 21.

• turn replace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 24.

• see Troubleshooting, page 34.

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.

WARNING: If yellow tipping occurs, your heater could produce increased levels of carbon

monoxide. If burner ame pattern shows yellow tipping, follow instructions at bottom of this

page.

WARNING: Do not allow fans to blow directly into the replace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner

ame patterns.

WARNING: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other acessory not approved for

use with this heater.

Notice: Do not mistake orange ames with yellow tipping. Dirt or other ne particles enter the heater

and burn causing brief patches of orange ame.
