(not lifting or floating).
Refer to Figures 87 & 88 on Page 56. Remove any surface
build-up on pilot and burner assembly. Wipe the pilot nozzles,
igniter/flame rod and hood. Ensure the pilot flame engulfs the

being exposed to cold weather). Also inspect wall straps or
plumbers's tape to ensure it is secure and in place.
