LIGHTING THE WATER HEATER
TEST THE WATER HEATER AFTER INSTALLATION
•
The operation of the water heater must be thoroughly checked by the installer.
•
The burner flame must light smoothly and quickly from the pilot flame, and must go out quietly and
completely.
•
The main burner flame must be stable, although slight lifting at the front edge of the burner is
acceptable when the burner is cold.
•
The main burner flame should be blue, with a clearly defined inner cone - luminous yellow or
"floating" flames are not acceptable, and must be corrected by opening the air shutter (refer to
Shutter" on page 40).
•
Check the test point pressure and compare with the rating label. The pressure regulator is not
adjustable and if the test point pressure is not within 5% of the specified value, refer to your nearest
Solahart Dealer.
•
If unable to get the water heater working properly, contact your nearest Solahart Dealer.
•
When satisfied everything is working properly instruct the user in the correct method of operation.
AIR SHUTTER
The air shutter is a hinged flap in the burner aeration tube. It may require adjustment on installation.
•
For a Propane and Butane model, the air shutter should be fully open.
•
The shutter is held in place by a screw on the side of the burner aeration tube.
Note: A Natural gas model does not have an air shutter.
