Heater does not operate.
Is the heater plugged in?
Have the fuses or breaker blown at the fuse box / breaker panel?
Is there a power failure?
Is the air filter blocked?
Is anything blocking the outlet for the hot air?
Is the flue blocked?
AT IGNITION:
Warm air does not flow when the burner
lights.
The fan is started automatically after a short delay. This is to allow the
heat exchanger to warm up, helping to avoid cold draughts.
Smoke or strange smells are produced
on the first trial light up after installation.
This is caused by grease, oil, or dust on the heat exchanger and will stop
after a short time.
Sharp clicking noised at ignition, or
when unit shuts down, or goes out.
This is simply expansion noise from the heat exchanger.
DURING COMBUSTION:
Clunking noise when the thermostat
operates.
This is the sound of the solenoid gas valves opening and closing.
Unit is not heating room.
Is the air filter blocked?
Is the set temperature high enough?
Is the warm air outlet blocked by anything?
Are the doors and windows of the room closed?
Was the appliance correctly sized for the space?
Air filter is blocked or the louvers are
blocked.
Allow heater to cool, clean air filter, and operate again.
Heater will not re-ignite after overheating
Even after unit has cooled down, the heater does not ignite again. Repair
is necessary by a qualified service provider.
DURING COMBUSTION:
Convection fan continues to run after
turning OFF
This is to remove the residual heat from the heat exchanger. The fan will
stop when the heater cools down.
OTHER POINTS:
Steam is discharged from the flue
terminal.
High efficiency appliances tend to discharge water vapor on cold days.
This is normal.
Unit shuts off without apparent reason.
Check whether filters are blocked. Dirty filters will cause the heater to
overheat.
Power Failure
Switch OFF, then ON again when power is restored to re-set controls.
