SERVICING
A hazardous condition may result if a heater is used that has
been modified or is not functioning properly. When the heater is
working properly:
* The flame is contained within the heater.
* The flame is essentially blue with perhaps some yellow
tipping.
* There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye burning or other
physical discomfort.
* There is no smoke or soot internal or external to the heater.
* There are no unplanned or unexplained shut downs of the
heater.
The parts lists and wiring diagram show the heater as it was
constructed. Do not use a heater which is different from that
shown. For this heater, the regulator must be set to supply 4"
water column (W.C) outlet pressure. If there is any uncertainty
about the regulator setting, have it checked.
A heater which is
not
working right must be repaired, but
only
by
a trained, experienced service person. To find the service center
