THERMOSTAT
CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostatic control used on this fireplace differs from standard thermostats. Standard thermostats simply turn on and off the burner. The thermostat used on this fireplace senses the room temperature. The thermostat adjusts the amount of gas flow to the burner. This increases or decreases the burner flame height. At times the room may exceed the set temperature. If so, the burner will shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room temperature drops below the set temperature.
The control knob can be set to any heat level between HI and LO.
Note: The thermostat sensing bulb measures the temperature of air near the fireplace cabinet. This may not always agree with room temperature (depending on housing construction, installation location, room size, open air temperatures, etc.). Frequent use of your fireplace will let you determine your own comfort levels.

Operating
Blower
This blower has three settings: ON, OFF, and AUTO. In the ON position, blower will operate constantly. In the OFF position, blower will not operate. In the AUTO position, blower will start when thermostat senses a sufficient increase in firebox temperature.
Note: Your fireplace and thermostat blower will not turn on and off at the same time. The fireplace may run for several minutes before blower turns on. After heater modulates to pilot position, blower will continue to run. Blower will shut off after firebox temperature decreases.
Note: It is safe to operate fireplace with blower turned off. However, blower helps distribute heated air from fireplace.
