PERATION
The Stowe gas-fired heater is operated easily
by the homeowner once it is installed and
adjusted by qualified service personnel. The
unit is controlled via the wall-mounted
thermostat during the heating season. Set the
thermostat to the desired room temperature
and the unit will cycle on and off as
required. By adjusting the variable output
control located on the gas control valve, the
rate of heat output can be varied to meet the
heating requirements of the season.
Choosing a low flame setting will result in
longer burn cycles at a reduced output, while
choosing a high flame setting will result in a
shorter, hotter burn cycle. Through trial and
error, the homeowner can select the
optimum flame size for their setting, and
application.
During the summer non-heating season,
switch the wall thermostat to “OFF”, and
turn off the pilot by turning the gas control
to “OFF”. This will improve the overall
efficiency of the unit as the heat from the
pilot is wasted. When putting the unit back
into service, follow the lighting instructions
described on page 28.
When the unit is first lit, especially when
cool, it is normal to experience some
condensation on the inside of the window
glass. This condensation will evaporate
within the first few minutes of operation. If
continuous condensation is observed on the
window glass, or dripping water is seen
coming from any part of the unit or venting
system (chimney), immediately discontinue
operation of the unit, and contact qualified
service personnel.
