Adjusting the Blower Speed
The blower helps transfer heat from the heater into the room. It will not turn on until the heater is up to
temperature (approximately 10 minutes after starting). See the illustration below for instructions on
adjusting the blower speed.
OFF
Turn the dial all the
way counter-clockwise
until it clicks off.
HIGH
The high position is all the
way counter-clockwise,
without clicking off.
LOW
Turn the dial all the
way clockwise.
Normal Operating Sounds
Gas Control Valve
As the gas control valve is turned on
and off you will hear a dull clicking
sound. This is the valve opening up
and shutting down.
Blower Snap Disk
This part can produce a clicking sound as it
turns the blower on and off.
The appliance will
creak with change of
temperature.
Pilot Flame
The pilot flame,
which remains on,
makes a very slight
"whisper" sound.
Blower
This heater uses a blower to push heated air into the
room. You will hear the sound of air movement that
increases as the speed is increased.
Extinction Pops
It is not unusual, especially on Propane (LP) appliances,
to experience a "pop" when the burner is shut off.
Normal Operating Odors
This appliance has several areas that reach high temperatures. Dust or other particles on these areas
may burn and create an odor. This is normal during start-up. You may notice the smell is more acute if
the appliance was left idle for a long period.
