PILOT ASSEMBLY/THERMOCOUPLE CLEANING OF SOOT
Every six months or as needed, remove media, lava rock,

For Push Button only, visually inspect electrode and jet
used for conductivity regularly to make sure it is free of
debris and soot. Soot build up or obstructions of any kind
can reduce effectiveness of spark. Without a strong spark,
burner will not light. If spark is not strong enough, clean
