1. Adjust air shutter. (See Page 12).
2. Reduce pilot gas with adjusting screw on combination gas
control valve.
3. Remove burr or replace orifice (Do not enlarge orifices).

1. Shut off gas service immediately. Check piping. Call gas company.
(See Page 1).
2. Clean flue.
3. Eliminate drafts.
1. Check pilot orifice, increase pilot gas flow if necessary by adjusting inlet pressure.
2. Clean burner ports (Do not enlarge ports).
3. Check gas supply pressure.
4. Supply piping is inadequately sized. Consult local gas utility or competent installer.
5. Close air shutter to proper setting as outlined in these instructions (slight yellow
tipping is allowable on L.P. Gas). (See Page 12).
6. Eliminate drafts.

1. Re-check gas input.
2. Check orifice for clogging. If clogged, clean out the hole carefully with a smooth
wood toothpick. (Do not in any way enlarge or distort it).
1. This is especially true when a dwelling or room is enlarged. Have the heat loss
calculated and compare to the appliance output (70% of input). Your gas company or
installer can supply you with this information. If appliance is undersized, replace with
correct size unit.
2. Raise setting of Temperature Dial. See "Lighting & Shutting Down Instructions"
on page 11.
3. Check supply pressure as outlined above.
1. Lower setting of temperature dial. See "Lighting & Shutting Down Instructions"
on page 11.
2. Replace combination control valve.
