1. Set the on/off/T-stat switch or thermostat to the
off position.
2. Unplug the blower accessory, if so equipped.
3. Push in and turn gas control knob clockwise to
“OFF”.
(If not previously lit, the knob should be
in this position.)
4. Wait (5) five minutes to clear out any gas. If you
then smell gas, STOP!
Smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to
the floor because some gases (LPG) are heavier
than air and will settle on the floor. If you smell
gas immediately, follow the What To Do If You
Smell Gas! warning on the cover of this Manual.
If you do not smell gas, go to the next step.
5. Turn gas control knob counterclockwise to
“PILOT”.
6. Push in control knob all the way and hold in.
Immediately light the pilot with the gas lighter
(push in and “click” the piezoelectric spark
igniter button several times until lit). Continue to
hold the control knob in for about 20 seconds
after the pilot is lit. Release the knob and it will
pop back out. Pilot should remain lit. If the pilot
goes out, repeat the operation.
If knob does not pop out when released,
stop and immediately call a qualified service
technician or gas supplier.
If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries,
turn the gas control knob “OFF” and call a
qualified service technician or gas supplier.
7. Turn gas control knob counterclockwise to “ON”.
8. Select “ON” or “T-STAT” position on the on/off/t-
stat switch.
9. Shut the gas control valve access door.
10. Plug in the blower accessory, if so equipped.
11. Set thermostat to “ON” and set the desired
temperature setting.
Normally, if the “T-STAT” position was selected, the
main burner is cycled on and off by the Thermostat
or the “on”, “off” switch located on the bottom of the
Thermostat body.

PPLIANCE
Turn the gas control knob clockwise to “OFF”
position, and shut off the gas supply to the valve if
shutting the unit off for the non-heating season. This
will improve the overall efficiency of the unit as the
heat from the pilot is wasted in the summer. Follow
the lighting instructions outlined on this page when
putting the unit back into service.

The gas control valve is equipped with a variable
output control. This control varies the
rate
of heat
produced by the unit by varying the gas pressure to
the main burner tube.

PERATIONS
The Champlain gas-fired heater is easy to operate.
The Champlain comes with a standard thermostat.
Optional remote, or programmable thermostats are
available for purchase from your local Hearthstone
dealer. The desired room temperature is maintained
with a properly adjusted and installed thermostat.
By adjusting the variable output control located on
the gas control valve, the rate of heat output is
varied to meet the heating requirements of the
season. Choosing a low flame setting will result in
longer burn cycles at a reduced output, while
choosing a high flame setting will result in a shorter,
hotter burn cycle. Through trial and error, the
homeowner can select the optimum flame size for
their setting, and application. Also available is a
optional variable speed blower.
