DRAFTHOOD CHECK
A "spillage" test must be made before the in-
stalled unit is left with the customer. Follow the
procedure below:
1.
Start all exhaust fans in the home and then close
all external doors and windows in the house.
Remove the Front Trim from the E18E to gain
better access to the Drafthood Opening. Make
sure the Glass Door is on properly.
2. Light the unit and set controls to maximum.
3. After five minutes, test that there is a “pull” on
the flue by placing a smoke match, cigarette or
similar device which gives off smoke, in front of
the spill tube. See diagram 17.1.
The thermally actuated safety switch will auto-
matically reset after it has cooled off. The switch
will continue to cycle until the draft problem is
corrected. DO NOT BYPASS OR DISCONNECT
THIS SWITCH.
Diagram 17.1
Check for proper draft by placing a match close
to the drafthood opening. This should be checked
after the unit has been operating for 15 min.
The smoke should be drawn into the Drafthood. If
the smoke is still not drawn into the Drafthood turn
the unit off and check for the cause of the lack of
draft. If necessary, seek expert advice.
For wind turbulent sites, a wind cap may remedy
the problem.
Note: The thermally activated safety switch will
sense the change in temperature and shut down
the gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft
or a blocked or disconnected vent. The switch
acts as a safety shut-off to prevent a build-up
of carbon monoxide. If the flue is blocked or
has no "draw", the switch will automatically
shut off the supply of gas within 5 - 10 minutes.
Tampering with the switch can result in carbon
monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
If the heater turns off because of lack of draft
during the spillage test, check for the cause and
if necessary, seek expert advice.
