To Turn Off Gas to Unit
1 - Set thermostat to lowest level.
2 - Turn off all electrical power to unit if service is to be
performed.
3 - Move switch to OFF

Heating Sequence of Operation
1 - When the thermostat calls for heat, the combustion
air inducer starts immediately.
2 -
Combustion air pressure switch proves inducer
operation before allowing ignition sequence to
start. This switch is factory set and no adjustment is
necessary.
3 - After pre-purge of approximately 30 seconds, the
spark ignition is energized and the solenoid valves
open in the gas valve.
4 - The spark then ignites the gas, the ignition sensor
proves the flame and the combustion process
continues.
5 - In the event that the flame is not detected after the
first 10-second trial for ignition, the controller will
repeat steps 3 and 4 an additional two times before
locking out the gas valve. Ignition control will then
automatically repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 after 60
minutes.
NOTE - To interrupt the 60-minute lockout period, move
thermostat from “Heat” to “OFF” then back to “Heat.” Heat-
ing sequence then restarts at step 1.
6 - The burners must light without noticeable crossover
delay. There must be no flame lifting from the burner
heads, flashback or burning within the burner. The
flames should be predominantly blue in color and
should be approximately centered in the tubes with
no apparent impingement taking place.
7 - The ignition control will energize the fan approximately
30 seconds after ignition is established.
8 - After the thermostat demand is satisfied the gas
valve is closed. Thirty seconds after the demand is
satisfied, the combustion air inducer is shut off.
9 - The ignition control will shut off the system fan
approximately 150 seconds after the gas valve is de-
energize.
Gas Flow
To check for proper gas flow to the combustion chamber,
determine the Btu input from the appliance rating plate. Di-
vide this input rating by the Btu per cubic feet of available
gas. Result is the required number of cubic feet per hour.
Determine the flow of gas through the gas meter for two
minutes and multiply
by 30 to get the hourly flow
of gas.
Supply pressure should be checked with unit firing at max
-
imum rate. For Natural Gas, supply pressure should be
maintained in accordance with the specified minimum and
maximum supply pressures on the unit rating plate.
A natural gas to LP/propane gas changeover kit is re-
quired to convert the unit in the field. Refer to installation
instructions provided with changeover kit for conversion
procedure along with propane minimum and maximum
supply pressures.
