INSPECTING HEATER
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame
pattern often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 20 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
Figure 21 shows an incorrect pilot flame pat-
tern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching
the thermocouple. This will cause the thermo-
couple to cool. When the thermocouple cools,
the heater will shut down.
If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 21
• turn heater off (see
To Turn Off Gas to Ap-
pliance
)
• see
Cleaning
, page 15
Note:
The pilot flame on natural gas units will
have a slight curve, but flame should be blue
and have no yellow or orange color.

tern. Figure 23 shows an incorrect burner
flame pattern.
If burner flame pattern is incorrect, as shown
in Figure 23

pliance
