FAQ

How do I replace the spark ignitor battery?

To replace the spark ignitor battery, simply remove the old battery and insert a new one.

Why won't the pilot stay lit?

The pilot may not stay lit due to a defective thermocouple, air in the gas line, or no gas supply. Check and address these issues accordingly.

What causes the flames to turn blue during start up?

It is normal for the flames to appear blue during start up. They will gradually turn yellow as the appliance heats up.
