TEST SOLUTION
Connect a jumper wire across the wall switch
terminals; if main burner lights, replace switch /
thermostat.
Disconnect wires from valve. Connect a jumper wire
across terminals 1 & 3; if the main burner lights,
check the wires for defects and / or replace wires.
Remove stoppage in orifi ce.
Replace.
Fill the tank.
Check if pilot can be lit by a match.
Check that the wire is connected to the push button

Replace the valve / Oxygen Depletion Sensor
System.
Call the gas distributor.
Turn on all gas appliances and see if pilot fl ame
fl utters, diminishes or extinguishes, especially
when main burner ignites. Monitor appliance supply
working pressure.
Check if supply piping size is to code. Correct all
undersized piping.
ODS Burner requires checking.
Adjust inlet pressure to ensure maximum 7.0" W.C.
at gas valve for natural gas and 13.0" W.C. for
propane.
Ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other
obstructions.
Check that the logs are correctly positioned.
Check for ceiling or oscillating fans that may be
