THERMOSTATIC CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostatic control used on this model differs from standard thermostats. Standard thermostats simply turn the burner on
and off. The thermostat used on this heater senses the room temperature. At times the room may exceed the set temperature.
If so, the burner will shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room temperature drops below the set temperature. The
control knob can be set to any comfort level between HIGH (5) and LOW (1).
Note
: The thermostat sensing bulb measures the temperature depending on housing construction.
