TROUBLESHOOTING

 WARNING: If you smell gas:

•  Shut off gas supply.

•  Do not try to light any appliance.

•  Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your 

building.

•  Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Fol-

low the gas supplier’s instructions. 

•  If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

 WARNING: Only a qualified service technician should service and 

repair heater. Make sure that power is turned off before proceeding. 

Turn off and let cool before servicing.

IMPORTANT:

 Operating heater where impurities in air exist may create odors. Cleaning sup-

plies, paint, paint remover, cigarette smoke, cements and glues, new carpet or textiles, etc., 

create fumes. These fumes may mix with combustion air and create odors.

Note: All troubleshooting items are listed in order of operation.

Pressure Switch

When using natural gas (NG), there is a pres-

sure switch that acts to turn off the gas flow to 

the pilot if the inlet pressure exceeds 10" WC.

 

This  is  to  prevent  the  operation  of  the  unit 

on the wrong gas (propane). If your natural 

gas supply exceeds 10" WC the unit will not 

operate.  Either  contact  your  gas  supplier 

to check and adjust the inlet pressure or a 

qualified service technician can bypass the 

pressure switch.
Before  attempting  to  bypass  the  pressure 

switch, make sure the type of gas being used 

is correct. Check to make sure the connection 

fitting is in the correct inlet on the regulator. 

Refer to 

Connecting to Gas Supply

, page 14

Only a qualified installer should bypass the 

pressure  switch.  To  bypass  the  pressure 

switch locate the set screw on the regulator. 

Use a small flat bladed screw driver to turn the 

set screw counterclockwise 2 turns. This will 

bypass the pressure switch function.

Problem

Possible Cause

Corrective Action

Using  natural  gas  and 

pilot will not light.

Inlet pressure exceeds 10"  WC. Bypass  pressure  switch.  See 

instructions below.

The entire gas delivery piping including con-

nections  inside  the  heater  should  be  leak 

tested  by  the  qualified  installer. After  leak 

testing the qualified installer should light the 

appliance. Refer to the correct flame pattern 

as illustrated on page 21 All flame patterns 

should be safely inside the product. If for any 

reason they are not, stop use of the appliance 

and call for repairs.
