Locating the Heater
WARNING:
Gas burning appliances require air for combustion and proper venting. Minimum fresh air opening of 1 square inch per 1,000 Btu/hr. input rating must be provided for ventilation.
EXAMPLE: A 30,000 Btu/hr. input unit requires the equivalent of a
30 inch wide window be open 1 inch for safe operation.
WARNING:
Danger of property damage, bodily injury or death. Even when a house meets requirements for unconfined space with adequate air infiltration, it is recommended that a fresh air intake be installed to lessen the possible dangers from any future changes on the home.
Consider the following points before attempting to install the heater:
1. In choosing the location for the heater, the following factors should be considered: a. Convenience to the gas supply. b. Arrangement of the rooms or area to be heated. c. Probable location of the furniture. d. General appearance. e. Safe clearance from anything that could catch fire. f. Ability to properly vent the heater.
2. Locate the heater centrally in the area which it is to heat. The ideal location is at the source of cold air, which is an outside wall. If the heater is on an outside wall, the cold air will be warmed before it moves through the room.
3. Place the heater where the air will circulate freely throughout the area to be heated. If one heater is intended to heat the entire house, it is advisable to consider the installation of grilles immediately below the ceilings to permit circulation of hot air from room to room. Return air grilles are also desirable.
4. Be certain the heater is placed where the air is free to circulate around it. Never install the heater in a wall recess.
The minimum clearance required to any wall or object can be found on the rating plate located inside the heater control door on the base plate. We recommend a 24-inch min. clearance from the burner access door for the ease of lighting and for observation of pilot and burner flames.
5. The heater must be installed so that the draft hood is in the same pressure zone as the combustion air.
6. The heater may be placed directly on wood floors. Heavy pile or shag rugs may restrict normal air flow. Some floor coverings discolor easily from even low heat. To assure safe

IMPORTANT
For satisfactory and trouble-free operation, be sure to:
1. Locate the heater properly within the space to be heated.
2. Provide for adequate combustion air, adequate air circulation around the cabinet inside the open room and a proper vent system.
3. Maintain all minimum clearances which apply to your heater. operation, a metal or wood panel, extending the full depth and width of the appliance must be placed under the heater.
Optional floor boards are available from Williams.
7. Do not place the heater where curtains, draperies, or any other material may come into contact with any part of the heater.
GAS CONTROLS
1. All models are regulated on natural or L.P. Gases. The regulator is built into the gas control valve.
2. All models are equipped with a 100% pilot safety shutoff and vent safety shutoff system.
3.
CAUTION:
Do not connect 115V electrical service line to gas control valve or wall thermostat.
GAS SUPPLY
For natural gas, the minimum inlet gas supply pressure for the purpose of input adjustment is 5" water column. The Maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 7" water column.
For L.P. Gas, the minimum inlet gas supply pressure for the purpose of input adjustment is 11" water column. The maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 13" water column.
The gas pressure and input to the burners must not exceed the rated input and pressure shown on the rating plate. On Natural
Gas, the manifold pressure should be 4 inches water column. The manifold pressure should be 10 inches water column for L.P. Gas.
Orifice changes may be required to suit the gas supplied.
For heaters located at elevations between sea level and 2,000 feet, the measured input must not be greater than the input shown on the rating plate of the heater. For elevations above 2,000 feet, the measured input must not exceed the input of the rating plate reduced by 4 percent for each 1,000 feet that the heater is above sea level.

Combustion & Ventilation Air
WARNING:
Danger of property damage, bodily injury or loss of life. The furnace and any other fuel- burning appliances must be provided with enough fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases. Most homes will require that outside air be supplied into the heated area.
The high cost of energy for home heating has brought about new materials and methods used to construct or remodel most current homes. The improved construction and additional insulation has reduced the heat loss and made these homes much tighter around windows and doors so that infiltrated air is minimal. This creates a problem to supply combustion and ventilation air for gas-fired or other fuel burning appliances. Any use of appliances that pull air out of the house (clothes dryers, exhaust fans, fireplaces, etc.) increases this problem and appliances could be starving for air.
In addition, these energy measures mean that your home will retain more water vapor or a higher relative humidity.
High humidity, especially during cold weather, may be damaging to buildings because condensation forms on windows and inside walls.
The combination of a tight energy efficient home with the use of exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and gas appliances result in more and more air being drawn from the house until fresh air may be sucked back into the house down a furnace flue or fireplace chimney. Carbon monoxide can be the result. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless gas produced when fuel is not burned completely or when the flame does not receive sufficient oxygen. Automobiles, charcoal, wood fires and improperly vented or air-starved coal, oil and gas furnaces or other appliances can produce carbon monoxide.
Be aware of these air-starvation signals:
1. Headaches, nausea, dizziness.
2. Excessive humidity shown by heavily frosted windows or a moist "clammy" sensation.
3. Fireplace smoke fills the room or will not draw.
4. Furnace flue backs up.

Installing Your Heater
AIR REQUIREMENTS
The requirements for providing air for combustion and ventilation are listed in the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 (in
Canada: CAN/CGA B149). Most homes will require that outside air be supplied to the heated area by means of ventilation grilles or ducts connecting directly to the outside or spaces open to the outdoors such as attic or crawl space. The only exception is when the furnace area meets the requirements and definitions for an unconfined space with adequate air infiltration.
WARNING:
Danger of property damage, bodily injury or loss of life. The furnace and any other fuel- burning appliances must be provided with enough fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases. Most homes will require that outside air be supplied into the heated area.
All air openings and connecting ducts must comply with the following:
If the furnace is installed in an area with another gas appliance(s), the total input rating of all appliances must be considered when determining the free area requirements for combustion and ventilation air openings.
Ducts must have the same cross-sectional area as the free area of the openings to which they connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts must not be less than 3-inches in length or height.
FIGURE 6 Draft Hood Spillage
2. Turn on all exhausting devices, such as:
kitchen and bathroom
dryers (gas and electric) exhaust fans
3. Turn on all vented gas appliances, such as:
heating equipment (includes any room heaters)
water heater
4. Wait ten (10) minutes for drafts to stabilize.
5. Check for draft hood spillage at each appliance. (Hold a lighted match 2 inches from draft opening. See Fig. 6.)
B. No Spillage
If the match flame pulls toward draft hood - this indicates sufficient infiltration air:
1. Return exhausting devices and appliances to the condition you found them.
LOUVERS / GRILLES AND SCREENS COVERING
FREE AREA OPENINGS
If a screen is used to cover the opening(s), it must not be smaller than 1/4-inch mesh. Use the free area of a louver or grille to determine the size opening required to provide the free area specified. If the free area is not known, assume a 20% free area for wood and a 60% free area for metal louvers or grilles.
EXAMPLE 1
FURNACE LOCATED IN UNCONFINED SPACE.
*
*
An unconfined space must have a volume of a minimum 50 cubic feet per 1000 Btu/hr. of total of all appliances in area. Adjoining rooms may be included only if there are no doors between the rooms, or if special provisions are made such as ventilation grilles installed between connecting rooms.
C. Draft Hood Spills
If there is spillage at a draft hood (match goes out or flame wavers away from draft hood):
1. Check for plugged flue connectors and chimneys. Check and repair, stoppage and test again.
2. If you have a fireplace, open a window or door near the fireplace and then check for spillage. a) If spillage stops, do not use the fireplace without a nearby window or door open until you can supply fresh air by a permanent duct.
Page 10, figure 8 shows the minimum area in square feet' based on 8 foot ceiling heights, required for different Btu/hr. input ratings.
A. If your furnace is in an open area (unconfined space*) the air that leaks through the cracks around doors and windows may be enough for combustion and ventilation air. The doors should not fit tight. The cracks around windows should not be caulked or weather stripped.
To determine if infiltration air is adequate, perform following checks:
1. Close all doors and windows. If you have a fireplace, start a fire and wait until flames are burning vigorously.
3. If you have kitchen and bathroom exhaust fans, turn them off and check for spillage. a) If spillage stops, do not use exhaust fans until you can supply fresh air by a permanent duct.
WARNING:
Danger of property damage, bodily injury or loss of life. Draft hood spillage, with unobstructed vents, indicates that additional air must be brought into the structure from outside.
Keep a window open (minimum 2 inches) near the appliance until a permanent air duct is installed.

Thermostat Installation
Williams’ heaters are operated by a millivolt type thermostat.
Current to the thermostat is supplied by the pilot generator. Do not connect to electricity. Anticipator settings are not required.
1. If an old thermostat is being replaced and is in a satisfactory location and the wiring appears to be in good condition, use existing wiring. If in doubt, use new wire.
2. If a new location is chosen or if this is a new installation, thermostat cable must first be run to the location selected. All wiring must agree with local codes and ordinances. These instructions cover bringing the wire down from the attic but it can be run from a basement or crawl space using similar methods.
3. Before drilling a hole in the wall at the selected location, drive a small finishing nail through the ceiling in the corner of the wall and ceiling above the thermostat location. Pull the nail out and push a small stiff wire through the hole so it can be found in the attic. Drill a ½-inch hole through the ceiling wall plate.
4. Probe for obstructions in the partition. Then drill a ½-inch hole through the wall at the selected location for thermostat.
5. From the attic, feed the thermostat cable or a stiff wire through the wall until even with the thermostat location.
6. Snag the thermostat cable through the hole and pull the cable through the hole in the wall so that 6 inches of the cable protrudes.
7. Route the cable to the wall heater.
8. Never use nails or staples across the thermostat wires.
Installing Your Heater
CAUTION:
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
Refer to installation instructions packed in the thermostat carton if you have any doubt about the above procedures.
Wall-Mounted Thermostat Installation
1. To remove the thermostat cover, squeeze both sides and lift.
2. Connect the thermostat wires to the terminal screws on the thermostat base. Make sure the wiring does not interfere with thermostat operation.
3. Push any excess wire back through the hole in the wall and plug the hole with insulation to prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.
4. Being sure to level the thermostat for best appearance, fasten the thermostat base to the wall through the mounting holes with screws provided.
5. Replace the thermostat cover.
6. Do not run wire in any location where it might be damaged.
Avoid splicing thermostat wires unless the spliced wires are properly cleaned, soldered and taped.
7. Use #18 gauge wire as supplied for a maximum length of 20 feet. If longer length is needed, use #16 gauge wire for a maximum length of 25 feet.
8. Connect the thermostat wires to the control valve as shown in
Figure 12.
Cabinet-Mounted Thermostat Installation
1. Locate the knockout on the right side of the heater to mount the thermostat. Remove the knockout by taping lightly with a screwdriver. It will also be necessary to cut the inside panel insulation about a ½-inch in diameter for clearance to the knockout.
2. Cut the thermostat wire to the desired length.
3. Connect the thermostat wires to the terminal screws on the back of the thermostat base.
4. Feed the thermostat wires through the knockout and route through the metal clip to the gas valve. Models, 2001621 and
2001622 do not have a metal clip.
5. Mount the thermostat to the side of the cabinet with screws provided.
6. Replace the thermostat cover.

Installing Your Heater
Vent Installation
This heater must be properly connected to a venting system. This heater is equipped with a vent safety shutoff system to protect against improper venting of combustion products. Tampering with or removal of this control will void the limited warranty and can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
WARNING:
Operation of this heater, when not connected to a properly installed and maintained venting system or tampering with the vent safety shutoff system, can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
This appliance needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air. This room heater is equipped with a vent safety switch. The vent safety switch will cause gas flow to the main burner to shutoff due to improper venting or a blocked flue. If the vent safety switch continues to shut off the gas flow, a qualified service person must be contacted to inspect for improper venting, blockage in the vent pipe or the vent safety switch for being defective.
WARNING:
Do not bypass the vent safety shutoff switch. To do so could expose the consumer to property damage, personal injury or possible death.
WARNING:
Danger of illness, bodily injury or death.
This heater and any other fuel burning appliance must be provided with enough fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases. Most homes will require that outside air be supplied into the heater area.
1. An effective flue is necessary to carry off water vapor, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and other products of combustion. For proper venting, follow the following basic rules for gravity venting, which are: a. Keep the flue gases hot. b. Follow the vent manufacturer's installation instructions. c. Select the proper vent size. d. Provide constant fresh air replacement.
2. For new installation, it is recommended that a Type “B” vent in accordance with its’ listing be used. A Type “B” vent is one made of non-combustible, corrosion resistant material of sufficient thickness, cross sectional area and heat insulating quality to avoid excess temperatures on adjacent combustible material and certified by a nationally recognized testing agency. Existing brick flues should be lined to provide an effective vent. Brick chimneys, even in good repair, may be too large and will not provide sufficient draft to effectively vent a heater.
3. Use vent pipe of the same size as the outlet on back of heater.
In no case should a different size vent be used. Single wall vent pipe may be attached directly to the draft hood of the room heater when a clearance of 2-1/2 inches (64mm) is maintained between the single wall vent pipe and the combustible wall of the room in which the room heater is located. Use double wall vent pipe for clearances less than 2-
1/2 inches (64mm) to combustibles.
4. Avoid a horizontal run to the vent pipe whenever possible.
When a horizontal run is necessary, the pipe must pitch upward at least 1/4 inch per foot. It must be supported securely and joints fastened by sheet metal screws or rivets.
Under no circumstances should the vent run downhill.
5. Never put a damper or barometric draft control in a gas vent pipe.
6. Never end a vent in an open attic or run a vent through a wall to the outside without extending it upward above the roof.
7. Always terminate the vent with an approved vent cap.
8. ALWAYS SECURE THE VENT PIPE TO THE OUTLET ON
THE BACK OF THE HEATER WITH A SHEET METAL
SCREW.
9. The flue pipe should extend through the wall of a chimney to be flush with the inner wall.
10. The flue pipe must be adequately supported by metal strips.
11. For the flue pipe running through walls and roofs, use B type
(1 inch (25mm) clearance to combustibles) vent pipe.
12. Vents should extend at least 2 feet (.6m) above the roof and above any object or nearby building within 10 feet (3m).
13. Open tees should not be used in the flue pipe.
14. The heater must not be connected to a chimney flue that is servicing a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
15. For proper venting, do not attach a 90 degree elbow directly to the draft diverter. It is recommended to attach 2 feet (.6m) of straight vent pipe before an elbow is used. Use 45 degree elbows if possible. Run flue pipe as direct as possible with not more than two elbows.
16. The use of more than one appliance per vent system may cause the vent safety shutoff device to shut off the heater due to the cooling of vent temperatures through the draft diverter of the second appliance.
17. The vent safety shutoff may shut down the heater if a too large or an unlined, masonry chimney is used. The vent may not warm quickly enough to get adequate vent action in a chimney before the shutoff device will shut down the heater. If this is the case, it is recommended lining the chimney with proper size type “B” vent pipe or type “B” chimney liner.
18. Single-wall metal pipe should not be used outdoors in cold climates or venting gas equipment. If the vent is installed directly outside, the cold pipe may delay the venting and cause the heater to shut-off by the vent safety switch. To prevent this problem, as well as condensation of flue products, an insulated enclosure is recommended. Use type B, vent pipe and maintain at least a one inch clearance to combustibles. Use a metal thimble to protect vent pipe as it passes through combustibles.
Installing Your Heater
IMPORTANT:
Inspect venting system prior to each heating season.
Typical Methods of Safely Venting Your Heater
1. Any horizontal run of vent pipe must slope upward a minimum of 1/4” per foot. Secure all joints of the vent with sheet metal screws.
2. Where the vent passes through the ceiling or wall, a thimble is required to keep the ceiling from catching fire. Use only a thimble designed for use with Type “B” gas vent, certified by a nationally recognized testing agency.
3. The vertical (straight up and down) part of the vent must end 2 feet above any part of the roof within 10 feet of the vent. This is to make sure the “draw” of the vent is not obstructed in any way.
4. A vent cap, approved by a nationally recognized testing agency, must be installed on top of the vent to keep out rain and snow and to prevent obstructions of the vent. The vent cap will also prevent excessive downdraft that can cause carbon monoxide to enter into the home. Do not use a homemade vent cap. They are dangerous and can restrict the draft of the vent.
5. Safe clearances are shown below. To prevent a fire, make sure the heater is installed no closer than the distances shown in the figures that apply to your type of venting.
6. If you are venting into a masonry chimney, it must be lined, in good repair and must not serve a wood or coal burning appliance. The flue must be at least as large in diameter as the vent connector. The top of the chimney must be two (2) feet higher above any part of the roof within ten (10) feet horizontally of the chimney and must be three (3) feet higher than the point where it passes through the roof line. If installed in front of a fireplace, the pipe must pass through a sheet metal cover on the fireplace that fits tightly.

Operating Your Heater
Start-Up Procedure
Start the heater using the procedures in the section “Operating
Your Heater”.
WARNING:
Danger of bodily injury or death. L.P.
Gas is heavier than air and it will settle in any low area, including open depressions and it will remain there unless the area is ventilated.
Never attempt to start-up the unit before thoroughly ventilating the area.
Check the heater operation as outlined in the following instructions. If any sparking, odors or unusual noises are encountered, shut off the electric power immediately. Recheck for wiring errors or obstructions in or near the fan motor.
CHECK GAS INPUT AND PRESSURES
For heaters located at elevations between sea level and 2,000 feet, the measured input must not be greater than the input shown on the rating plate of the heater. For elevations above 2,000 feet, the measured input must not exceed the input on the rating plate reduced by 4 percent for each 1,000 feet that the heater is above sea level.
Gas supply pressure and manifold pressure with the burners operating is specified on the rating plate.
Type of Gas
Natural
L.P.
Manifold Pressure, In. W.C.
4.0
″
10.0
″
Rated input will be obtained on a heating value of 2,500 Btu/hr. for propane at 10-inches manifold pressure with factory-sized orifices. If L.P. Gas having a different heating value is supplied, orifices must be changed by a qualified service technician before the heater is operated.
CHECK THERMOSTAT
Check the thermostat operation. When set above room temperature shown on the thermostat, the main burner should light. Make certain the thermostat turns off the heater when the room temperature reaches the selected setting and starts the heater when the room temperature falls a few degrees.
CHECK THE MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE
A tapped opening is provided in the gas valve to facilitate measuring the manifold gas pressure. A "U Tube" manometer having a scale range from 0 to 12-inches of water should be used for this measurement. The manifold pressure must be measured with the burner and pilot operating. Any major changes in flow must be made by changing the size of the burner orifice.
Check with your local gas supplier for proper orifice sizing.
CHECK THE GAS INPUT (NATURAL GAS ONLY)
WARNING:
Natural gas heating value (Btu per cubic foot) can vary significantly. Therefore, it is the installer's responsibility to see that Btu/hr. input to the heater is adjusted properly. Failure to do so could cause combustion chamber failure, asphyxiation, fire or explosion resulting in damage, bodily injury or death. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code (NFPA 54) to be sure the heater is burning fuel at the proper rate.
Under firing could cause inadequate heat, excessive condensation or ignition problems. Over firing could cause sooting, flame impingement or overheating of the combustion chamber.
Before starting natural gas input check, obtain heating value of the gas (Btu per cubic foot) at standard conditions from your local supplier.
To measure the input, using the gas meter, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off gas supply to all other appliances except the heater.
2. With the heater operating, time the smallest dial on the meter for one complete revolution. If this is a 2-cubic-foot dial, divide the seconds by 2. If this is a 1-cubic-foot dial, use the time in seconds as is (3,600 = Sec/hr.). This gives the seconds per cubic foot of gas being delivered to the heater.
3. Assuming natural gas with a heating value of 1,000 Btu per cubic foot and 34-seconds per cubic foot used as determined by step (2), then:
Input = 1,000 x 3,600 / 34 = 106,000 Btu/hr.
This measured input must not be greater than the input indicated on the nameplate of the heater.
4. Relight all other appliances turned off in Step 1 above. Be sure all pilots are operating.
CHECK PILOT BURNER
The pilot flame must envelop 1/2- to 5/8-inches of the generator.
Pilot flame is preset at the factory, so ordinarily does not require field adjustment. (Figure 17). On new installations, the gas lines will be filled with air and may take several minutes to establish a pilot flame.

Burner Flame Characteristics
Start the heater and let it operate for at least 10 minutes. Open the access door to view the burner flame. Limit your movements near the heater a few more minutes before making your final observation. The flame may look yellow due to dust particles in the room air. The flame should change to a nice blue color with firm inner and secondary cones. An occasional flash of orange might be seen as dust particles burn in the flame. This is normal.
No burner adjustment is provided, or is necessary. (Figure 18).
Normal Appearance
Natural Gas:
1. Inner cone- blue color - 3/8 to 5/8-inch above ports.
2. Secondary inner cone - light blue - 1 to 2-inches above ports.
3. Total flame - from blue to nearly invisible - approximately 6inches above ports.
L.P Gas:
1. Inner cone - blue color - 1/2 to 3/4-inch above ports.
2. Secondary inner cone - light blue - 1 to 2-inches above ports.
3. Total flame - from blue to nearly invisible - approximately 6inches above ports.

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
The combustion and ventilation air supply must not be blocked.
Do not put anything in or on the heater cabinet.
Caring for Your Heater
CLEANING BURNER COMPARTMENT
Because cold air is attracted to the flame during heater operation, a build up of lint from carpeting, bedding, dust, etc. in the burner area will occur. It is necessary to clean this area regularly. Use a vacuum cleaner with a narrow attachment to reach small areas.
Be careful in and around the pilot. A change in its adjustment could be made if moved during cleaning.
FIGURE 21 Log Mounting
DANGER:
A build up of any dust, lint or foreign material in the primary air opening of the burner can interfere with the proper air gas mixture and can result in a yellow flame which can produce carbon monoxide and soot. This condition if allowed to develop, can lead to bodily injury including death. It is imperative that the burner be kept clean.
TO REMOVE LOGS FROM COMBUSTION CHAMBER
Always remove the logs from the combustion chamber when cleaning the burner or combustion chamber.
1. As parts are removed, place them in a safe place until ready for reassembly.
2. Remove the chrome hearth assembly. Compression clips hold hearth assembly in place. Grasp the assembly frame and pull forward.
3. Remove the screws in the glass window frame.
IMPORTANT:
The logs are made of special lightweight materials that can be easily damaged by rough handling.
4. Lift the front log up and out of the front log support brackets carefully. Take care when pulling it out through the window opening. Do not scrape it against the metal edges of the opening.
5. Remove the screws and plates holding the top right and the top left sides of the rear log set against the top rear support brackets.
6. Lift the rear log set up and out of the bottom support brackets.
Tilt the top towards the back and slowly allow the bottom to pass through the opening first. Take care not to scrape it against the metal edges of the opening.
7. Reverse the above procedure to reassemble after cleaning.
GLASS CLEANING
Use mild soap and water only. Never clean when the glass is hot.
If the glass is broken it must be replaced with the manufacturer’s authorized part only. Failure to do so could cause property damage, bodily injury or death.
NOTE:
A properly adjusted burner with nearly all gases will produce a flame which has a clear blue cone having a bluish-red or bluish-violet outer mantle.

Blower Accessory 2102
Mounting the Blower
Note:
All electrical work must conform to your local codes and ordinances or in their absence, with National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are not familiar with wiring codes in general, have a competent electrician do this job. In CANADA: CANADIAN
ELECTRICAL CODE C22.1.
WARNING:
Danger of property damage, bodily injury or death. Turn off electrical power supply at disconnect switch, fuse box or service panel before removing or working on fan.
1. Place the motor and blower on the heater floor, securing with four (4) screws. Attach three (3) screws to the inlet duct and one (1) screw to the heater floor, using the existing screw holes. Align the opening in the base of the motor and blower with the opening in the heater floor. The opening on the side of the motor and blower should align with the opening on the heater inlet duct.
2. Attach the “HI” and “LO” speed switch to the upper left corner on the back of the heater and replace the corner bracket with the speed switch plate using the existing mounting holes. The correct position for the fan switch is shown below. The top of the fan switch should be level with the notch directly across the switch on the blower mounting plate.
Make sure speed switch wires are secured with clamp (provided in the kit) away from the combustion chamber before operating the heater.

Blower Accessory 2102
Operation
This accessory is operated using the factory equipped, three-prong (grounding) plug and cord. When using the plug and cord, for your protection against shock hazard, it must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
DO NOT CUT OR
REMOVE THE PRONG.
You must select “HI” or “LO” on the speed switch (item 8) for automatic blower operation. When the heater heats up, the fan switch is activated and the blower will operate. When the heater cools down, the blower will turn off. The blower will not operate if the speed switch is set in the “OFF” (center) position.

Troubleshooting
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Pilot will not stay lit after following lighting instructions.
A. Generator producing insufficient millivolts.
B. Loose or dirty generator connections at gas valve.
C. Generator defective.
D. Grounded thermostat wire.
Check pilot flame – it must impinge on the generator from 1/4 to 3/8-inches .
Be sure the thermocouple is fully inserted in its bracket.
Clean and/or tighten the connections at the valve.
Check the generator with millivolt meter. Take reading at the generator terminals of the valve with the valve placed in "Pilot" position. Disconnect the thermostat wires. The millivolt reading should be 450 millivolts or more.
Remove the thermostat wires from the valve terminals.
If the pilot now stays lit, trace the thermostat wiring circuit for a ground. May be grounded to heater, gas supply, nails or staples.
2. Pilot burning - no gas to the main burner.
E. Defective valve. Replace the gas valve after above is verified.
A. Thermostat not turned to a position calling for heat.
B. Plugged burner orifice.
C. Improperly wired or broken thermostat wires.
Defective thermostat.
D. Pilot generator may not be generating sufficient millivoltage to open valve.
Set the thermostat to a position calling for heat.
Clean or replace.
Check the connections at valve terminals. If valve operates, check the thermostat wires.
See 1A and 1C above.
E. Defective valve. Replace.
3. Burner comes "ON" but goes OFF before blower turns
ON.
A. Thermostat location.
Check the thermostat location. It should not be in the path of warm air discharge from heater, near a lamp, or above a T.V. or stereo.
B. Defective thermostat. Check the thermostat calibration or replace.
A. Heater may be too small for space being heated.
4. Heater not producing sufficient heat.
B. Heater not burning at full rate.
Check heat sizing calculations.
Check for low gas pressure at gas valve. It should be 4 inches W.C. for
Natural Gas; 10.5 inches W.C. for L.P.G. Check for blocked burner orifice.
Troubleshooting
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE
A. Thermostat wiring defective.
5. Heater operates, but will not shut off after room temperature is attained.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Thermostat lead wires may be shorted together, caused by a nail or staple.
Check by removing thermostat leads from valve terminals.
B. Thermostat location.
Check thermostat location. If on an outside wall, or there is a hole in the wall behind thermostat, cold air may be coming in contact with the thermostat.
Relocate the thermostat or plug the hole.
C. Defective thermostat. Verify thermostat temperature reading or replace.
6. Pilot outage.
D. Valve stuck open.
A. Pilot flame may be too low or blowing
(high), causing pilot to drop out.
Replace valve.
Adjust pilot flame. Pilot orifice may be plugged
(Check for spider webs or other material).
B. Drafts or drafty areas. Check for doorway and high air movement areas.
A. Blockage in vent pipe. Checks vent pipe for blockage, such as bird nests, twigs, leaves, etc.
B. Thermostat location.
Check thermostat location - if on an outside wall or there is a hole in wall behind the thermostat causing cold air to contact the thermostat, relocate the thermostat or plug the hole.
Check that the vent cap is properly installed, and not placed too far down on the vent pipe. Cap must be the same manufacturer as the vent.
7. Main burner will not stay on.
C. Restriction in vent system caused by offsets.
All type "B" vents shall extend in a vertical direction with no more than two offsets not exceeding 45 degrees. Any angle greater than 45 degrees from vertical is considered horizontal. Any offsets used should be as far above the draft hood as possible to allow venting to begin before any restriction is encountered. The use of too many offsets may also prevent proper venting.
D. Incorrect vent pipe.
Use listed B/W type vent pipe. DO NOT use transite or any other type of ceramic pipe for venting. DO NOT use single wall pipe. When venting into a masonry chimney, the chimney must be properly lined and sized for this gas heater. The use of type "B" or flexible chimney liner is recommended.
E. Loose connections on the vent safety wiring harness.
Check the connection on both the switch and the gas valve. Tighten if necessary.
30
Troubleshooting
A. Delayed ignition - pilot flame may be too low.
Adjust pilot flame. Refer to "How to Care for Your Heater" section in this manual.
8. Abnormal operation.
B. Expansion noise, ticking.
C. Combustible gas spillage.
D. Excessive flame rollout.
Heater may be distorted by being vented through an uneven opening. A restricted vent may create expansion noise. Refer to "Venting" section of this manual.
Check vent system for a blocked flue, excessive down draft (wind) or negative pressure in room caused by ventilating fan or a fire in a fireplace.
Heater is possibly overrated - check for high gas pressure at gas valve (see
4B).
E. Burner is over-fired.
Check the manifold gas pressure. Check the rate, this appliance is manufactured for elevations up to 2,000 feet. It must be derated for operation above 2,000 feet.
F. Yellow burner flame. Check burner for obstructions. Install new burner and pilot orifices.
9. Noisy blower.
10. Blower does not run.
G. Yellow pilot flame.
A. Housing rattling.
B. Blower dirty.
C. Blower wheel bent.
A. Fan switch not set.
B. Check bearings.
Remove pilot orifice, check and clean.
Tighten blower screws.
Clean blower wheel.
Straighten or replace.
Select fan speed.
Add oil as outlined in "Blower Accessory Instructions".
