Inspecting Burners; Cleaning And Maintenance - Desa (V)T32EN-A Series, (V)T32EP-A Series Owner's Operation And Installation Manual

INSPECTING BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper flame. Altera-
tions may have occurred during shipping and handling. The pilot
is located on the left hand side of the burner.
The flame must envelope 1/4" of top of the ignitor/sensor and
grounding stem.
If your pilot assembly does not meet these requirements:
• Turn the adjustment screw marked PILOT clockwise to decrease
or counterclockwise to increase the flame to proper size (see
Figure 48, page 24). Do not remove the adjustment screw.
• see Troubleshooting, page 27

BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Burner flames will be steady; not lifting or floating. Flame patterns
will be different from unit to unit and will vary depending on instal-
lation type and weather conditions.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly, the flames will lift
or "ghost". This can be dangerous. Inspect the flames after instal-
lation to ensure proper installation and performance.
Figure 51 shows a typical flame pattern.
If burner flame pattern differs from that described:
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 24)
• see Troubleshooting, page 27
