THERMOSTAT
CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostat control knob can be set to
any comfort level between Hi and Lo. The
thermostat will gradually modulate the
heat output and flame height from higher
to lower settings, or pilot, in order to
maintain the comfort level you select.
The ideal comfort setting will vary by
household depending upon the amount of
space to be heated, the output of the
central heating system, etc.
Note:
Selecting the Hi setting with the
control knob will cause the burner to
remain fully on, without modulating down
in most cases.
