Troubleshooting
Combustion Analysis Procedure
1. Press the SHUTDOWN button on the display until
HTR:Off appears in the display window.
2. Remove the screws securing the top panel to the unit.
Remove the panel from the unit to gain access to the flue
sensor.
3. Locate the flue sensor in the top of the vent connection.
Remove the flue sensor and grommet from the unit. Note:
Combustion measurements will be made at this point.
4. Press the SHUTDOWN button on the display until
HTR:Standby appears in the display window.
5. Locate the pinhole button above the “r” in the Lochinvar
logo on the display board (FIG. 11-1). Insert a thin wire
(such as a paper clip) into the hole and press the button
once and hold for 5 seconds to place the water heater into
Service Mode. In Service Mode the water heater will fire at
ignition speed and will then modulate up to full fire.
6. Insert the probe from a combustion analyzer into the hole
left by the removal of the flue temperature sensor.
7. Once the water heater has modulated up to full fire, measure
the combustion. The values should be in the range listed in
Table 13G. The CO levels should be less than 150 ppm for a
properly installed unit.
If the combustion is not within the specified range, reference
the chart below for possible causes and corrective actions.

8. Once the combustion analysis is complete, press the
SHUTDOWN button on the display board (FIG. 11-1)
to take the water heater out of Service Mode. The
water heater will go to shutdown and the display will
show HTR:Off .
9. Replace the flue sensor and grommet into the vent
connection.
10. Replace the top panel on the unit.
11. Place the Shield water heater back into normal operation.
You must replace the flue sensor to
prevent flue gas spillage into the room.
Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage.
