INSPECTING
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame pattern often.

PILOT FLAME PATTERN
Figure 19 shows a correct pilot flame pattern. Figure 20 shows an incorrect pilot
flame pattern. The incorrect pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple. This will
cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut
down.
