THERMOSTAT

CONTROL OPERATION

The thermostatic control used on this fireplace

differs from standard thermostats. Standard

thermostats simply turn on and off the burner.

The thermostat used on this fireplace senses the

room temperature. The thermostat adjusts the

amount of gas flow to the burner. This increases

or decreases the burner flame height. At times

the heater will cycle back on when room tem-

perature drops below the set temperature.

The control knob can be set to any heat level

between HI and LO.
Note:

The thermostat sensing bulb measures

the temperature of air near the fireplace

cabinet. This may not always agree with

room temperature (depending on housing

construction, installation location, room size,

open air temperatures, etc.). Frequent use of

your fireplace will let you determine your own

comfort levels.
