PERATION

 

The Tucson gas-fired heater is easily 
operated by  the homeowner once installed 
and adjusted by qualified service personnel. 
The unit is controlled via the wall-mounted 
thermostat during the heating season. Set the 
thermostat to the desired room temperature 
and the unit will cycle on and off as 
required. By adjusting the variable output 
control located on the gas control valve, the 
rate of heat output can be 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. 
 
During the summer non-heating season, 
switch the wall thermostat to “OFF”, and 
turn off the pilot. This will improve the 
overall efficiency of the unit as the heat 
from the pilot is wasted. When putting the 
unit back into service, follow the lighting 
instructions described on page 24. 
 
When the unit is first lit, especially when 
cool, it is normal to experience some 
condensation on the inside of the window 
glass. This condensation will burn off within 
the first few minutes of operation. If 
continuous condensation on the window 
glass or dripping water from any part of the 
unit or venting system (chimney) is noted, 
immediately discontinue operation of the 
unit and contact qualified service personnel.

WARNING: Do not clean the unit 

when hot. 

The unit should receive 

regular cleaning on, under, and around 
the stove to prevent the buildup of dust 
and lint. The exterior surfaces of the unit 
can be cleaned using soap, water, and a 
soft cloth. 

Do not 

use abrasive or 

chemical cleaners and take care not to 
scratch the glass or enamel finish (if so 
equipped) when cleaning the unit. The 
use of chemical wax based cleaners or 
polishes are not recommended due to the 
potential for discoloration or the enamel 
when the residue of the cleaners or 
polishes is exposed to heat.
