Installation Instructions
- Turn off power and gas supply to the heater before performing any service.
- Remove the access panel and note the routing of the original pilot tube.
- Disconnect the old tube from the pilot assembly and sensor fittings, remove it carefully.
- Install the new 004078F tube along the same routing path, connect fittings securely, and double-check orientation.
- Restore gas and power, and run the heater through a start sequence to confirm proper ignition and stable pilot flame.
Troubleshooting
- No pilot flame or loss of ignition: Check that the pilot tube is connected correctly, free of kinks, and that gas supply is present.
- Pilot flame unstable or yellow: Ensure the tube is properly routed away from excessive heat, inspect for damage or blockage, and verify gas pressure.
- Gas smell around heater: Shut off the unit immediately, inspect all connections and fittings, and confirm proper leak-proof installation of the pilot tube.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the pilot tube and fittings annually during routine heater maintenance. Replace the tube if you see kinks, corrosion, or faded signage to ensure safe ignition and help prolong the life of your heater system.
