Instructions d'installation

This procedure should only be performed by a qualified service technician.

  1. Préparation:
    • Turn off the gas supply to the appliance at the main shut-off valve.
    • Disconnect electrical power to the appliance.
    • Laissez l'appareil refroidir complètement s'il a été utilisé.
    • Access the pilot assembly area within your fireplace or stove, typically by removing the log set, burner, or access panels.
  2. Removal of Old Pilot Assembly:
    • Carefully disconnect the gas line from the old pilot assembly. Be prepared for a small amount of residual gas.
    • Disconnect any electrical wires (e.g., igniter wire) from the old assembly. Note their connections for reinstallation.
    • Unscrew or unclip the mounting bracket that secures the old pilot assembly to the burner or firebox.
    • Remove the old pilot assembly from the appliance.

  3. Installation of New Pilot Assembly:
    • Position the new pilot assembly in the same location as the old one.
    • Secure the pilot assembly using its mounting bracket and appropriate screws. Ensure it is firmly in place and correctly oriented.
    • Connect the gas line to the new pilot assembly. Use a pipe thread sealant approved for gas connections. Tighten securely but do not overtighten.
    • Connect the electrical wires (e.g., igniter wire) to the corresponding terminals on the new pilot assembly. Refer to your appliance's wiring diagram if unsure.

  4. Test de fuite:
    • Slowly turn on the main gas supply to the appliance.
    • Apply a non-corrosive leak detection solution to all gas connections made during installation.
    • Look for bubbles, which indicate a gas leak. If bubbles are present, turn off the gas supply immediately, tighten the connection, and retest. Repeat until no leaks are detected.
  5. Opération de test :
    • Rétablissez l'alimentation électrique de l'appareil.
    • Follow your appliance's specific instructions to light the pilot.
    • Observe the pilot flame. It should be steady, blue, and impinge correctly on the main burner port to ensure proper ignition.
    • Si le voyant ne s'allume pas ou ne reste pas allumé, reportez-vous à la section Dépannage.

Opération terminéeview

The pilot assembly serves as a continuous ignition source for your gas fireplace or stove. When the appliance is called to heat, the pilot flame ignites the main burner. This specific pilot assembly operates without a thermocouple, relying on other safety mechanisms within your appliance to monitor pilot flame presence.

Entretien

Regular inspection and cleaning can prolong the life and ensure the safe operation of your pilot assembly. Perform these checks annually or as recommended by your appliance's manufacturer.

  • Inspection visuelle : Check the pilot flame for proper size and color (should be blue with a small yellow tip). Ensure it is directed correctly towards the main burner.
  • Nettoyage: Gently clean any dust, lint, or debris from the pilot burner and igniter electrode using a soft brush or compressed air. Ensure the pilot orifice is clear.
  • Relations: Inspect all gas and electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.

Dépannage

If you experience issues with your pilot assembly, consult this section. For persistent problems, contact a qualified service technician.
