due to insufficient gas regulator setting. Temporarily decrease

 

the High-Low Fire thermostat setting to verify that the

 

thermostat will function and cause the burner to cycle. If burner

 

will cycle at the reduced thermostat setting, it indicates that the

 

problem was due to insufficient heat to satisfy the original

 

setting. Increase the gas regulator setting for additional

 

heat output. Do not exceed the maximum pressure listed in

 

this manual.

 

2. High-Low Fire thermostat control may be defective. If the burner

 

still does not cycle to low-fire after decreasing the thermostat,

 

the problem may be due to a broken or kinked thermostat

 

sensor tube. Observe reading on the thermometer. Replace

 

control assembly if it cannot be set to cause its switch to go

 

to the open circuit position with normally hot air plenum

 

temperatures.

 

3. If the burner continues to operate on high-fire, check the

 

high-fire gas solenoid valve for a stuck or blocked open

 

condition, or for reversed gas pipe connections. The solenoid

 

valve must not allow gas flow when its coil is not energized.

Readjust low-fire setting on flow control valve, if necessary.

 

2. Check for improperly adjusted or defective High-Low Fire

 

thermostat control. Temporarily increase the temperature

 

setting. If the heater will still not cycle, check for problem in the

 

control wire connections. The control wires should be connected

 

to terminals R and B of the thermostat, so the switch will open

 

upon temperature rise. If the burner will cycle with these two

 

wires connected together, the thermostat is faulty.

 

3. Check for improperly connected or faulty high-fire gas vapor

 

solenoid valve. Correct any poor connections or defective

 

wiring. If wiring appears proper, problem may be caused by a

 

burned out valve coil or defective valve. Replace high-fire

 

solenoid valve, or its coil, if defective.
