The location of the main shut off valve is known by everyone in the house (it is usually next to the gas
meter or propane tank). EVERYONE must know where this valve is located.
All necessary permits and installation information have been obtained and the final inspection has been
performed by the local building inspector.
The operation instructions located on the gas valve panel door have been read and understood. A copy of
these instructions can be found in the "Operations" section of this manual.
The operator and pilot igniter have read this manual thoroughly and understand it.
Burner and Pilot Checks
A periodic check of the pilot and burner flames
should be made. Check after the fire has been on for
at least 30 minutes. The pilot flame must cover the
tip of the thermocouple and thermopile probes, if
the pilot flame does not sufficiently cover the
probes it can be adjusted using the pilot adjustment
screw found on the front of the gas valve. The main
burner flame pattern will vary from appliance to
appliance depending on the type of installation and
climatic conditions.
