OBSERVED PROBLEM

Heater produces a clicking/tick-

ing noise just after burners are lit 

or shut off

Heater  produces  unwanted 

odors

Heater  shuts  off  in  use  (ODS 

operates)

Gas odor even when control knob 

is in OFF position

Gas odor during combustion

Logs set cycles to pilot, but room 

temperature drops to a lower than 

ideal level before log set comes 

back on

 WARNING: If you smell gas

•  Shut off gas supply.

•  Do not try to light any appliance.

•  Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your 

building.

•  Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Fol

-

low the gas supplier’s instructions.

•  If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

IMPORTANT: 

Operating heater where impurities in air exist may create odors. Cleaning supplies, paint, 

paint remover, cigarette smoke, cements and glues, new carpet or textiles, etc., create fumes. These 

fumes may mix with combustion air and create odors. These odors will disappear over time.
