PILOT ADJUSTMENT

The pilot flame can be observed by opening the pilot lighting hole cover. The pilot flame should surround the top 3/8 to ½ inch of the thermocouple (see Figure 2). If the flame needs adjusting, first locate the pilot adjustment screw cap and remove. Adjustment screw is underneath (see Figure 1). To increase the

flame, turn the pilot adjustment screw counterclockwise .

To decrease the flame, turn the screw clockwise . NOTE: The pilot is unregulated. If incoming line pressure is more than 7” w.c. Natural Gas or 11” w.c. for L.P. Gas, the pilot flame size should be decreased.

MAIN BURNER ORIFICE

This appliance was shipped from the factory with an orifice sized to give the correct gas input using the gas for which the heater was equipped. There may be local conditions, such as variation in gas pressure or BTU content of the gas, which may be cause for a change in the orifice. The gas company supplying the fuel or the installing contractor should check the gas input rate.

If the rate exceeds the “BTUH INPUT” on the rating plate by 5%, the orifice should be replaced with a smaller orifice by a qualified technician to reduce the input to the rating plate value.

The input rate may need to be adjusted for elevation. See the following charts to determine the correct orifice size for your Model Number and elevation. These orifice sizes are based on a heating value of 1020 for Natural Gas and 2500 for L.P. Gas.

CAUTION: As elevation increases, derating is necessary for the safe and proper operation of this heater. Do not increase the Btu input rate by increasing the orifice size or gas pressure. Allow for elevation derating when sizing gas heating equipment.
