SYMPTOM PROBLEM TEST SOLUTION
Pilot will not light. No spark at pilot burner. - Check if pilot can be lit by a match.
- Check that the wire is connected to the push button igniter.
- Check if the push button igniter needs tightening.
- Replace the wire if the wire insulation is broken or frayed.
- Replace the electrode if the ceramic insulator is cracked
or broken.
- Replace the push button ignitor
Out of propane gas. - Fill the tank.
Spark gap is incorrect. - Spark gap should be 0.150” to 0.175” (5/32” to 11/64”
approx.) from the electrode tip and the pilot burner. To
ensure proper electrode location, tighten securing nut
(
fi nger tight plus 1/4 turn).
No gas at the pilot burner. - Check that the manual valve is turned on.
- Check the pilot ori fi ce for blockage.
- Replace the valve.
- Call the gas distributor.
Flames are consistently
too large or too small.
Carboning occurs. Unit is over- fi red or under fi red. - Check pressure readings:
- Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A)
counter-clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then placing pressure
gauge tubing over the test point. Gauge should read
7” (minimum 4.5”) water column for natural gas or 13”
(minimum 11”) water column for propane. Check with
main burner is operating on ‘HI’.
- Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above
using screw (B). Gauge should read 3.5” water column
for natural gas or 10” water column for propane. Check
that main burner is operating on ‘HI’.
- AFTER TAKING PRESSURE READINGS, BE SURE TO
TURN SCREWS CLOCKWISE FIRMLY TO RESEAL.
DO NOT OVER TORQUE.
- Leak test with a soap and water solution.
Flames are very aggressive. Door is ajar. - Ensure the mechanical means of securing the door is
providing a tight seal.
Venting action is too
great. - Check to ensure venting is properly sealed.
- If a restrictor plate is not included with the unit, restrict
vent exit with the restrictor plate kit listed in the
“ACCESSORIES” section.
Carbon is being
deposited on glass, logs
or combustion chamber
surfaces. Air shutter has become
blocked. - Ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other
obstructions.
Flame is impinging on the logs
or combustion chamber. - Check that the logs are correctly positioned.
- Open air shutter to increase the primary air.
- Check the input rate: check the manifold pressure and
ori
fi ce size as speci fi ed by the rating plate values.
- Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing
and that the seal is tight.
- Check that both vent liners are free of holes and well
sealed at all joints.
- Check that minimum rise per foot has been adhered to
for any horizontal venting.

Une pellicule
blanche ou grise se
forme. Le souffre du combustible
se dépose sur la vitre, les
bûches ou les parois de la
chambre de combustion. - Nettoyez la vitre avec un nettoyeur recommandé.
- NE PAS NETTOYER LORSQU’ELLE EST CHAUDE.
- Si vous ne nettoyez pas les dépôts régulièrement, la vitre risque de
rester marquée en permanence.
On détecte l’odeur
des gaz de
combustion dans la
pièce; maux de tête. L’appareil refoule les gaz
de combustion dans la
pièce. - Assurez-vous de l’étanchéité de la buse d’évacuation amovible.
- Véri fi ez tous les joints scellés et la plaque d’expansion.
- Véri fi ez si la cheminée ne serait pas bloquée.
- Véri fi ez si la cheminée est installée selon les codes du bâtiment.
- La pièce est sous pression négative; augmentez l’apport d’air frais.
- Véri fi ez le joint d’étanchéité du couvercle d’évacuation.
L’interrupteur mural
est à « OFF » ; le
brûleur principal
s’allume lorsque le
bouton du gaz est
tourné à « ON ». L’interrupteur mural est
raccordé à l’envers. - Raccordez à l’endroit.
L’interrupteur mural
cause un court-circuit. - Remplacez.
Le fi l de l’interrupteur mural
cause un court-circuit.
- Véri fi ez si le fi l est bien mis à la terre; réparez ou remplacez le fi l.
Soupape défectueuse. - Remplacez.
