OPERATION

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.

PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure 27 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 28 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The 

incorrect pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When 

the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down.

If pilot flame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 28.

• turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 23.

• see Troubleshooting, page 27.

Note: The pilot flame on natural gas units will have a slight curve, but flame should be blue and have 

no yellow or orange color.

 WARNING

: If yellow tipping occurs, your heater could produce increased levels of carbon

  monoxide. If burner flame pattern shows yellow tipping, follow instructions at bottom of this

 page.

 WARNING

: Do not allow fans to blow directly into the heater. Avoid any drafts that alter burner 

     flame patterns.

 WARNING

: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other acessory not approved for 

     use with this heater.

Notice

: Do not mistake orange flames with yellow tipping. Dirt or other fine particles enter the heater 

and burn causing brief patches of orange flame.
