Troubleshooting

Fans do not turn on automatically upon cooking 
equipment activation.

 • 

 

Check wiring to control panel. Thermostats must 
be wired in parallel.

 

•  Temperature set point to high, decrease set point

 

•  No power to fans, check breakers/starters/relays

Fans do not shut off.

 

•  Fan switch must be in the off position

 

•  Cooking equipment hot, wait for it to cool

 

•  Temperature set point too low, increase set point

 • 

 

Check control circuit (fan starter) wiring

 

•  Time delay too great, turn down timed relay

Fans do not turn on quick enough.

 

•  Decrease temperature set point

Maintenance

Daily

Clean thermostat with cloth and degreaser. Keep clean 
for best performance. (Can clean weekly depending 
upon grease accumulation).

Weekly

Dependant on grease production and grease filter type, 
clean thermostat.

Seasonal

May have to change temperature setting on back of 
thermostat if ambient kitchen temperatures fluctuate 
between summer and winter seasons.
