Ok, either your fuel pressure is too low or too high.. When you light the unit, Light it in low, then turn it up slowly Just crack open your tank valve.about1/4 turn. The air in the tubes has to be displaced with gas before you get a good flame

Chk and make sure the thermocoupler bulb is in the pilot flame, If it is, it is defective and needs to be replaced. Easy, inexpensive repair. Good Luck, Ned

In all honesty, A propane heater would be less mess and risk of fire from spillage.Propane us cleaner too.

Thermo coupler is held in place with a clamp bracket at the pilot end and a small brass line nut on the other end going into the gas valve.The pilot flame must surround the sensing bu or wrap itself around it Press the pilot button for a few seconds and fire up the pilot flame. Wait a few more minutes and turn the gas vale on for the main burners. If it fires, your set.Good Luck,Ned

You can find a regulator and hose at most hardware stores or pro RV.store.

Turn the thermostat completely of leaving the propane on.Make sure it is plugged in and the ignitor functions Slowly turn the thermostat up and see if that works. Make sure the fan is working. Good Luck, Ned

A sign of too much pressure. !st panel is way to rich to ignite. 2&3 have a better chance of getting enough air. You've heard of air fuel ratio I'm sure. This the issue here I ieve.

Fan inoperative?

On the thermostat see if it has a setting for fan on auto and off try turning the fan on then see if it comes on, if it does then it may be your thermostat has failed if it does not turn on then reset the circuit breakers to see if you have a breaker kicked off. If it was wired properly there should be one near the unit and one in the main breaker panel so be sure to reset both. To do this you must force the breaker switches all the way off then all the way on. On some breakers if you do not force it to the off position it will not reset the breaker. If this does not help let me know and I will try to help you some more just replay to the e-mail you get go to the bottom of the page and post add comment

Change out the thermocouple, this will take care of the pilot problem. Very easy to take out and change.This is what keeps the pilot on and when it fails, no pilot. Sincerely, Shastalaker7

Sounds like the your ignitor has burned out. Had the same problem. Now looking for a replacement. Checked mine and for some reason the filiment has broken/burned off. Ran across this on a search for one. Good luck!

hold down the pilot valve knob and turn the arrow to pilot position push down on red button to allow gas thru pilot tube hold down and light keep button held down for 1-2 mins while pilot is on to heat up the thermocoulple then release and turn knob to on position.

you need to change the vsafty alve when you push the knob you are lettingv the propain go directly to the burner and bypassing the safty valve...this is not big issue to replace just get the part and you will be easy able to rep[lace when you see it...

This can happen when your logs are not in the correct position. This also can happen if you are burning candles, a smoker, or spraying aerosols. I would have a Professional check it out.
