Heater produces a clicking/tick-

ing noise just after burners are lit 

or shut off

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. Not enough air

2. Gas regulator defective

1. Residues from manufacturing 

processes and logs curing

1. Turning control knob to HI po-

sition when burners are cold

2. Air in gas line

3. Air passageways on heater 

blocked

4. Dirty  or  partially  clogged 

burner orifice(s)

furniture polish, wax, carpet 

cleaners, etc. may turn into 

white powder residue

1. Not enough combustion/ven-

tilation air

1. Battery is not installed. Bat-

tery power is low

1. Metal expanding while heat-

ing  or  contracting  while 

cooling

REMEDY

1. Check  burner(s)  for  dirt 

and  debris.  If  found,  clean 

burner(s) (see 

Cleaning and 

Maintenance

, page 27)

2. Operate  burners  until  air  is 

removed from line. Have gas 

line checked by local natural 

or propane/LP gas company

3. Observe minimum installation 

clearances (see page 9)

4. Clean burners (see 

Cleaning 

and Maintenance

replace burner orifice(s)

1. Turn  heater  off  when  using 

furniture polish, wax, carpet 

cleaners, or similar products

and Ventilation

 requirements 

(page 6)

1. Replace 9-volt batteries in re-

ers. If noise is excessive, contact 

qualified service person
