Congratulations on your purchase of a
Tucson Gas-Fired B-Vent heater. The
Tucson, by HearthStone, incorporates the
latest in gas technology, which will provide
you with clean, efficient heat for years to
come. The combination of natural stones
and cast iron gives the Tucson a pleasing
look that can be maintained with minimum
care.
The Tucson will provide you with years of
practical and convenient service. However,
as with any gas appliance, the unit must be
properly and safely installed and maintained
by qualified service personnel to ensure safe
and trouble-free operation.
Your Tucson is equipped with a standard
pilot which:
1. generates a milli-volt signal that
powers the wall-mounted thermostat
and;
2. lights the main burner when the
thermostat calls for heat.
This unit is equipped with an On/Off/T’stat
switch and a variable output control. The
variable output control is located on the gas
control valve. It allows you to vary the heat
output, along with the flame height to suit
personal taste. Heat output can be reduced
{set to “LOW”} during the Fall and Spring,
when the need for heat is reduced and
increased {set to “HIGH” during Winter
months, when the need for heat is the
greatest.
A wall-mounted thermostat is provided by
HearthStone. Regardless of how you set the
variable output control, when the optional
thermostat has been installed and the
On/Off/T’stat switch is set to “T’stat”, the
wall-mounted thermostat will control the
on/off cycling of the unit. At any time, you
can override the thermostat with the
On/Off/T’stat switch by setting it to “ON”
or “OFF”.
The Unit can also be equipped with an
optional blower fan, which turns on and off
independently of the burner flames. When
the switch, which allows you to turn the fan
on or off and control the speed of the fan to
suit your needs, is set to “High” or “Lo”, the
fan will automatically turn on when the
stove is hot and cycle off when the unit is no
longer hot.
Also available are two different optional
remote controls. Both of the remote controls
are capable of turning the unit on and off.
One of the optional remotes also allows you
to control the temperature of the stove from
anywhere in the vicinity of the unit. If “ON”
& “OFF” are the only controls required, Kit
# 90-56912 can be used. If you would like to
control the temperature via the remote
control, use Kit # 90-56914.
