THEORY OF OPERATION

The Fuel System: The air pump forces air through the air line. The air is then pushed through the

nozzle. This air causes fuel to be lifted from the tank. A ﬁne mist of fuel is sprayed into the combus-

tion chamber.

The Air System: The motor turns the fan. The fan pushes air into and around the combustion chamber.

This air is heated and provides a stream of clean, hot air.

The Ignition System: The ignition control assembly provides power to the ignitor. This ignites the

fuel/air mixture in the combustion chamber.

The Flame-Out Control System: This system causes the heater to shut down if the ﬂame goes out.

LOGIC ENHANCED IGNITION

These models have an electronically controlled

ignition system that is able to detect problems

during startup and is able to apply an automatic

“choke” to increase the likelihood of ignition. If

the heater does not ignite within the ﬁrst second

the motor will slow down momentarily. If your

heater does not light after the ﬁrst “choke” it will

repeat once. If the heater does not ignite after the

second “choke” it will shutdown and remain in

shutdown mode until the unit is reset. Please refer

to Troubleshooting, page 8 in order to properly

diagnose the problem.
