SYMPTOM

PROBLEM

TEST SOLUTION

Pilot will not light.

No spark at pilot burner.

 

-

Check if pilot can be lit by a match.

 

-

Check that the wire is connected to the push button igniter.  

 

-

Check if the push button igniter needs tightening.

 

-

Replace the wire if the wire insulation is broken or frayed.

 

-

Replace the electrode if the ceramic insulator is cracked 
or broken.

 

-

Replace the push button ignitor

Out of propane gas.

 

-

Fill the tank.

Spark gap is incorrect.

 

-

Spark gap should be 0.150” to 0.175” (5/32” to 11/64” 
approx.) from the electrode tip and the pilot burner. To 
ensure proper electrode location, tighten securing nut 
(

fi

 nger tight plus 1/4 turn).

No gas at the pilot burner.

 

-

Check that the manual valve is turned on.

 

-

Check the pilot ori

fi

 ce for blockage.

 

-

Replace the valve.

 

-

Call the gas distributor.

Flames are consistently 
too large or too small. 
Carboning occurs.

Unit is over-

fi

 red or under

fi

 red.

 

-

Check pressure readings: 

 

-

Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A) 
counter-clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then placing pressure 
gauge tubing over the test point. Gauge should read 

7” (minimum 4.5”) water column for natural gas or 13” 
(minimum 11”) water column for propane. Check with 
main burner is operating on ‘HI’.

 

-

Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above 
using screw (B). Gauge should read 3.5” water column 
for natural gas or 10” water column for propane. Check 
that main burner is operating on ‘HI’.

 

-

AFTER TAKING PRESSURE READINGS, BE SURE TO 
TURN SCREWS CLOCKWISE FIRMLY TO RESEAL. 
DO NOT OVER  TORQUE.

 

-

Leak test with a soap and water solution.

Flames are very aggressive.

Door is ajar.

 

-

Tighten screws holding door in place.

Carbon is being 
deposited on glass, logs 
or combustion chamber 
surfaces.

Air shutter has become 
blocked.

 

-

Ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other 
obstructions.

Flame is impinging on the logs 
or combustion chamber.

 

-

Check that the logs are correctly positioned.

 

-

Open air shutter to increase the primary air.

 

-

Check the input rate: check the manifold pressure and 
ori

fi

 ce size as speci

fi

 ed by the rating plate values.

 

-

Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing 
and that the seal is tight.

 

-

Check that both vent liners are free of holes and well 
sealed at all joints.

 

-

Check that minimum rise per foot has been adhered to 
for any horizontal venting.

White / grey 

fi

 lm forms.

Sulphur from fuel is being 
deposited on glass, logs or 
combustion chamber surfaces.

 

-

Clean the glass with a recommended gas appliance 
glass cleaner. 

 

-

DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT.

 

-

If deposits are not cleaned off regularly, the glass may 
become  permanently marked.

Exhaust fumes smelled in 
room, headaches.

Appliance is spilling.

 

-

Ensure exhaust bracket gasket seal.

 

-

Check door seal and relief 

fl

 ap seal.

 

-

Check for chimney blockage.

 

-

Check that chimney is installed to building code.

 

-

Room is in negative pressure; increase fresh air supply.

 

-

Check cap gasket on the 

fl

 ue pipe assembly.

Remote wall switch is in 
’OFF’ position; main burner 
comes on when gas knob 
is turned to ‘ON’ position.

Wall switch is mounted upside 
down.

 

-

Reverse.

Remote wall switch is 
grounding.

 

-

Replace.

Remote wall switch wire is 
grounding.

 

-

Check for ground (short); repair ground or replace wire.
