10.4 optional anti-condensation switch
(models B36NTRE/B36PTRE/GX36NTRE-1 & GX36PTRE-1 only)
This appliance has the option to change from an electronic intermittent pilot ignition (IPI) to a standing pilot for
CX36
colder climates. The anti condensation switch (ACS) (standing pilot) is located in the center of the control panel.
If installed with the blue wire facing up, flipping the switch UP turns on the standing pilot and flipping the switch
DOWN turns on the intermittent pilot ignition. If installed with the white wire facing up, the opposite is true.
Turning the ACS on will allow the pilot flame to burn continuously. This mode will minimize the
condensation which forms on the inside of the glass when the main burner is first turned on. It will also help
the fireplace and vent system stabilize faster during colder winter months.
During the warmer winter and summer months, the ACS can be turned off to minimize fuel
consumption.
