THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostatic control used on these models differs from standard thermo-
stats. Standard thermostats simply turn on and off the burner. The thermostat
used on this heater senses the room temperature. The thermostat adjusts the
amount of gas flow to the burner. This increases or decreases the burner flame
height. At times the room may exceed the set temperature. If so, the burner
will shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room temperature drops
below the set temperature. The control knob can be set to any heat level
between HI and LO. Selecting the HI setting will cause the burner to remain
fully on without modulating down in most cases.
Note:
The thermostat sensing bulb measures the temperature of air near the
heater cabinet. This may not always agree with room temperature (depending
on housing construction, installation location, room size, open air tempera-
tures, etc.). Frequent use of your heater will let you determine your own
comfort levels.
