PROBLEM:
HEATER WILL NOT REMAIN LIT AFTER START UP.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
Faulty igniter wire.
REMEDY:
Check igniter wire for any damage. Replace is necessary.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
Faulty igniter / flame sensor.
REMEDY:
Ensure connections are secure. Replace igniter / flame
sensor if necessary.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
Ignition board.
REMEDY:
Check ground wire for proper connection.
Check polarity of extension cord compared to polarity
of plug on the heater.
Replace faulty ignition board.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
Thermostat.
REMEDY:
Ensure thermostat is calling for heat. NOTE: If the
thermostat is not calling for heat, the heater will not operate.
PROBLEM:
ELECTRICAL.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
All components.
REMEDY:
Before replacing any component, all connections must be checked to ensure the
electrical circuit is complete. (Use volt meter and enclosed wiring diagram).
Any point in the circuit where 120v is not achieved indicates location of problem
and/or possible faulty component. NOTE: Everything downstream of the
transformer is 24v (eg. all switches and sensors).
PROBLEM:
PIPING.
POSSIBLE CAUSE:
All pipe fittings.
REMEDY:
When loosened, tightened or replaced, the complete fitting should be removed
and approved pipe sealant applied to all male threads before reconnection
