GAS PRESSURE CHECK

The heater regulator controls the burner pressure which should be checked at the pressure test point located on the right side of the main control and is accessible from the side of the gas log assembly (see FIGURE 10).

The pressure should be checked with the heater burning and the control set to high (HI).

The pressure regulator is preset and locked to avoid tampering. If the pressure is not as specified in Product Specifications (Page 2), contact your dealer and replace the regulator.
