7.2  Appliance Maintenance and Component 

Description

Only genuine Laars replacement parts should be used.

 Caution

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing 

controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and 

dan-gerous operation. Verify proper operation after 

servicing.

See

 Figure 5

 for location of gas train components.

The gas and electric controls on the appliance are 

engineered for long life and dependable operation, but 

the safety of the equipment depends on their proper 

functioning. It is strongly recommended that a qualified 

service technician inspect the basic items listed below 

every year.

 

a.  Ignition controls

 

b.  Ignitors

 

c.  Water temperature control

 

d.  Automatic gas valve

 

e.  Pressure switches

 

f. 

Blowers

7.2.1 Burners

Close main manual gas valve before proceeding. 

Checking the burners for debris - Remove the ignitor 

inspection panels(s) and ignitor(s) and inspect the burners 

through the ignitor hole(s) using a flashlight to illuminate. 

If there is any indication of debris on the burners that 

are visible, all the burners will need to be inspected 

more thoroughly. Remove the screws from around the 

front of the air box (large panel from which the ignitor 

inspection panel(s) were removed), and remove the 

large panel. Remove the gas manifold assemblies and 

the burner panels. Inspect the burners. Clean burners, if 

necessary, by blowing compressed air from the outside 

of the burners into the center of the burner. A dirty 

burner may be an indication of improper combustion or 

dirty combustion air. Determine the cause, and correct. 

Replace the burners in the reverse order

7.2.2 Filter

The filter used in the Mighty Therm2 is washable 

with an 83% arrestance. Since the filter is washable, 

it will only need replacement when unwashable, 

deteriorated or damaged. If filter replacement is needed, 

it should only be replaced with a factory part. Inspect 

the air filter. If there is debris on the air filter, remove 

it from the filter box, and wash it with mild soap and 

water. Ensure that the filter is completely dry before re-

installing, in reverse order.

7.2.3  Gas Valves

The gas valves are designed to operate with supply 

pressures of 4-13 inches w.c. (1.0 to 3.2 kPa).

To remove a valve, shut off 120-volt power and the 

manual gas shutoff valve. Remove the top front panel 

from the unit. Disconnect the wires to the valve. Disen-

gage the flanged fitting before and after the valve, and 

remove the valve. Re-install in reverse order. Ensure 

o-rings are properly installed for both inlet and outlet. 

Turn on manual gas shutoff valve and 120 volt power 

and check appliance operation and tightness of gas valve 

connections. 

7.2.4  Manual Reset High Limit Control

The high limit switch is manual reset switch with 

an adjustable set point, up to 240°F (116°C) on boiler 

models and 200°F (93°C) on water heater models 

and boilers ordered with low temperature controls. To 

replace the switch, shut off the 120-volt power to the 

appliance. Remove the cover from the switch to access 

the mounting screws. Remove the screws, and pull the 

switch off the control panel. Remove the capilliary and 

bulb from the thermal well located in the header. Replace 

in reverse order.

7.2.5  Temperature Control

The temperature control is a Honeywell L6008. To 

replace the control, shut off the 120-volt power to the 

appliance. Remove the cover from the control panel, and 

remove the mounting screws to remove the controller. 

Replace in reverse order.

7.2.6  Ignition Controls

The ignition controls ensure the proved interrupted-

type ignition system. They control the hot surface 

ignitors and prove that the flame signal is appropriate 

for powering the gas valves. It also controls the blower’s 

pre-purge and post-purge. Mighty Therm2 sizes 500 and 

750 have one ignition control. Sizes 1000 to 2000 have 

two ignition controls. On sizes up to 750, one ignition 

control controls stages 1 and 2. On unit sizes 1000–2000, 

one ignition control is for stage 1, and the other is for 

stage 2.

To replace a control, shut off the 120-volt power to 

the appliance. Remove the cover from the control panel. 

Remove the electrical connectors from the ignition 

control. Take out the controller’s mounting screws, and 

pull the controller out. Replace in reverse order.

7.2.7  Ignitors/Sensor

The ignitor/sensor used are 120v "hot surface" 

type. They are energized whenever there is a call for heat 

and switched off when ignition is established and flame 

has been sensed. Mighty Therm2 sizes 500 and 750 have 

one ignitor/sensor. Sizes 1000 to 2000 have two ignitor/

sensors. To replace the ignitor/sensor, shut off the 120-

volt power to the appliance, remove the ignitor access 

panel, disconnect the Molex connector, remove the two 

mounting screws on the ignitor/sensor flange and pull the 

ignitor out. ((Hot Surface) Ignitor and the Flame Sensor 

are the same items). Install in reverse order, always using 

a new ignitor gasket with the replacement ignitor.
