6.  User Instructions 

Before turning on gas, check main supply valve to 
be  sure  it  is  open  (

Fig.  3

).    Be  sure  to  check  all 

connections  for  leaks  with  a  Gas  Leak  Testing 
solution, (soap and water work well).  Check to see 
if gas valve knob is in the ON position.  If not, turn 
counter-clockwise  until  knob  “clicks”  into  the  ON 

position.  (This may not apply to all units).  Turn on 
gas  by  turning  ball  valve  handle  into  vertical 
position. 

6.1  Connecting Electrical Power 

Make sure a circuit breaker or similar cutoff 

device is provided to  permit disconnection 

of electrical power to heater for service and 
cleaning.   

All  electrical  work  should  be 

performed  by  a  certified  electrician.    If  no 
adjustments are made, the heater will operate 

every  time  power  is  supplied  and  the  on/off 
switch is activated.  If an external thermostat is 
to  be  used  (See  Component  &  Wiring 
Diagram),  the  heater  will  operate  only  when 

power  is  supplied,  the  on/off  switch  is 
activated,  and  the  thermostat  indicates  a  call 
for heat. 

6.2  Starting Up 

Before turning on gas, verify that the main supply valve is open.  Check all connections for leaks with a 

soap and water Gas Leak Testing solution.  Verify the gas valve knob is in the ON position.  If not, turn 
counter-clockwise until knob “clicks” into the ON position.  (This may not apply to all units).  Turn on 
gas by turning ball valve handle into vertical position. 

IMPORTANT: 

Heater installation must be 

performed by qualified gas 
heater service personnel. 

Follow these steps to light the pilot and position 
the gas valve control for use. 

NOTE:

  Do not supply power to the heater 

during this start up.  Supplying power 
to the heater at this stage could cause 

the blower to start which will make 
lighting the pilot difficult 

1.

 

Open  all  manual  gas  supply  valves  and 
check all connections for gas leaks. 

2.

 

Position the gas shut off valve to the pilot 
position.
