BURNER ORIFICE HOLDER AND
PILOT AIR INLET HOLE
The primary air inlet holes allow the proper
amount of air to mix with the gas. This pro-
vides a clean burning fl ame. Keep these holes
clear of dust, dirt, lint and pet hair. Clean these
air inlet holes prior to each heating season.
Blocked air holes will create soot. We rec-
ommend that you clean the unit every three
months during operation and have heater
inspected yearly by a qualifi ed service person.
We also recommend that you keep the burner
tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust
and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend
using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI.
Your local computer store, hardware store or
home center may carry compressed air in a
can. If using compressed air in a can, please
follow the directions on the can. If you don't
follow directions on the can, you could dam-
age the pilot assembly.
1. Shut off unit, including pilot. Allow unit to
cool for at least thirty minutes.
2. Inspect burner, pilot and primary air inlet
holes on orifi ce holder for dust and dirt
(see Figure 47).
3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes
in the burner.
4. Check orifi ce holder located at the end of
the burner tube again. Remove any large
particles of dust, dirt, lint or pet hair with
a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.
