LOW / INSUFFICIENT HEAT:
Check the gas supply for a damaged and/or kinked supply line. Replace if necessary. On LP units, a
mostly empty tank may not have sufficient pressure to run the appliance at high heat. Replace with a full
tank. Check the gas supply pressure to ensure at least 7” W.C. for NG and 11” W.C. for LP.
If gas supply is adequate, check burner for blockages. Check flame characteristics according to the
illustration shown below.
BURNER BLOWS OUT:
First determine if the problem is being caused by location. If the location is subject to high winds,
reposition the appliances to provide some protection by placing the back of the appliances toward the
wind, or construct a windbreak.
Check the gas supply and flame characteristic according to the procedure under Low / Insufficient Heat.
BURNER ADJUSTMENT:
The burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas
supply, elevation and other factors might make it necessary to adjust the burner. The flames of the
burner should be visually checked and compared with the illustration, below.
If any of these conditions exist, check if dirt, debris, spider webs, etc., are blocking the burner ports.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting.
