If the flame goes out, will fuel continue to pump?
The heater uses a photocell to “see” the flame in the combustion chamber. Should the flame extinguish, the sensor will stop electrical current, and the heater will shut off.
Turned power off but the fan still runs?
This heater must cycle through a “Cool Down Phase” in which the fan continues to run for apromaxily 3 minutes to circulate air through the combustion chamber to cool it before shutting off completely.
