Checking The Performance - Rinnai Symmetry RDV3611 Maintenance Instructions Manual

Checking the performance

Once all components have been reassembled check the performance of the unit.
Visual inspection of the flame
Check that the pilot and burner
flames are operating normally.
If the flames appear very short
or very long and streaky, or are
producing smoke or soot deposits,
then there may be a problem with
the appliance or gas supply. The
burners are designed to produce
rows of yellow flame, but not
smoke or soot.
Normal flame pattern
The pilot flame should be blue
and extend over the flame rod.
It should not be long, streaky or
yellow.
Normal operating sequence
Using the customer operation
manual proceed through the
normal operating sequence by
switching the unit on and off,
adjusting the flame setting,
temperature, and fan (if fitted).
The fan (if fitted) should come on
approximately five minutes after
the pilot ignition.
Abnormal flame pattern
It may take approximately 20
minutes for the logs to achieve
their final flame pattern and glow.
It is the responsibility of the
installer to check that under
normal conditions of the
appliance, all flue gases are
exhausted to the outside
atmosphere and that there is no
spillage of combustion gases into
the room.
If the appliance can not be made
to perform correctly, please
contact Rinnai.
