Sequence of operation:

The blocked vent pressure switch monitors the pressure in the exhaust tube. The switch contacts are normally closed and will

not open unless there is a blockage in the exhaust venting or terminal (snow, ice, debris). If the blocked vent pressure switch

contacts open after the thermostat initiates the blower, the blower will remain on for to 5 minutes waiting for the contacts to close.

If the contacts remain open, the blower will stop and the PURGE LED will flash for hot surface ignition models.

Check PURGE LED status.
