SECTION 8
Operation & Maintenance
Sequence of Operation
1.
Turn the thermostat up. When the thermostat calls for heat,
blower motor will energize.
2.
When the motor approaches nominal running RPM, the air
proving switch closes and activates the ignition module.
3.
Once the igniter sparks, the gas valve is energized.
4.
If a flame is detected, the gas valve remains open. When the
call for heat is satisfied the system control mechanism de-
energizes the burner line voltage supply and the gas valve is
turned off.
5.
If no flame is detected, the gas valve is closed, and a purge
period begins. After the purge, the module acts to power the
igniter for a second trial for ignition period. If flame is still
not established, a third and final purge and trial cycle begins.
After three trials, the module will lockout until reset. Reset
is accomplished by removing power from the module for at
least five (5) seconds (thermostat cycle required.)
Maintenance
For best performance, the following maintenance procedures should
be performed before each heating season:
1.
Be sure gas and electrical supply to heater are off before
performing any service or maintenance.
2.
Check condition of blower scroll and motor. Dirt and dust
may be blown out with compressed air, or a vacuum cleaner
may be used. When using compressed air do not exceed 30
psi in order to not damage fragile hot surface igniter.
3.
Check condition of burner. Carefully remove any dust or
debris from inside the burner box or burner cup.
4.
Inspect the igniter. Replace igniter if there is excessive carbon
residue, erosion, breakage or other defects.
5.
Check the inside of the firing tube with a flashlight. If carbon
or scale are present, scrape out the deposits with a wire
brush or rod, or metal plate attached to a wooden pole.
6.
Check to see that the burner observation window is clean
and free of cracks or holes. Clean or replace as necessary.
7.
Check the vent cap for soot or dirt. After cleaning as
necessary, re-attach the vent cap to the heater.
8.
Outside surfaces of heater may be cleaned by wiping with a
damp cloth.
9.
Check that the first reflector has its retention wire fastened to
the burner box and it is still stable.
10. Check vent terminal and fresh air inlet to see that they have
not been blocked during the non-heating season. If either
pipe is restricted, the air switch won't close, resulting in a no-
heat situation.
A qualified service agency should be contacted for service
other than routine maintenance.

Troubleshooting
CAUTION: Before opening the Heatstar AG burner door for any
type of service, be sure the gas supply has been shut off at
the heater and the electrical cord from the burner box has
been unplugged.
