Continuous/Intermittent Pilot Switch

This heater may run with the pilot continuously running or in Intermittent mode. For most homeowners,
Intermittent mode is preferable (this saves fuel, doesn’t give off un-needed heat). However, in some
situations the homeowner may prefer to switch the heater to Continuous Pilot mode. The most typical
reasons for switching to Continuous Pilot are:


Very Cold Conditions – In very cold conditions you may notice that the burner does not light quickly,

and the flames lift off the burner. If this is situation, we recommend you switch to continuous pilot.
This will create a slight draft in the vent, allowing for the burner to light quickly and draft correctly.

Excessive Condensation on Glass After Startup – Certain installations may encounter excessive

fogging on the window after startup (not just the first time the heater was started). This is an aesthetic
condition that may be remedied by switching the heater to continuous pilot.

Cold Glass or Heater Front – In very cold conditions you may notice that the heater front and glass

become very cold. To remedy this, switch the heater to continuous pilot.

Frequent On / Off Operation – If you are frequently turning the heater on and off, you may wish to

leave it in continuous pilot. This allows the burner to turn on more quickly, without pilot ignition delay.
